Me and the other half went to this on Friday night for the penultimate night of their 159 show world tour. It was absolutely amazing, best night out for a long time. The noise that 70'000 people can make is unreal, real hair tingling moments were a plenty. Viva La Vida, Fix You, Yellow, Clocks, all amazing.
The real surprise of the night for me though were the support acts. First on was White Lies, which were suprisingly good actually. Then Girls Aloud. I wasn't looking forward to them at all, but to be fair they did actually sound pretty good, and put on a good show. Jay-Z was the final support act, not my cup of tea really, but my god he knew how to get the crowd going, and his final song "Encore" was pretty amazing really, as was his duet with Chris Martin later on in the evening.
2 downsides to the evening for me. 1 was being sat one row from the back in the top tier - jesus its a long way down and to the stage, although the sound system was still amazing. 2 was the hour it took to get out of the car park! Got home at 2am absolutely knackered.
