"Chris Martin is in full Michael Stipe mode, smurfing around the stage, on his knees, in the air but without an ounce of pomposity. He truly looks like a man wholly enjoying what he does. The key to any successful stadium show is a strong ending. They come out and play ‘Square One’, ‘Politik’, ‘Yellow’ and ‘Speed Of Sound’ without pausing for breath. It is absolutely immense; four top class anthems tossed away at the start of the set without even a consideration for what to play later."

-Quite a good review of the gig I attended last thursday, except that they say at the end that Coldplay didn't play Trouble, well they did you big tools WHERE WERE YOU?!!? Also, they played a stripped down, slowed down acoustic version of Hung Up by Madonna and yes it was as good as that sounds. No other music has the ability to make the hair on the back of my neck stand up, and when they filled Earls Court with dozens of gigantic yellow helium (and glitter) filled balloons [When they sang Yellow, obviously] I was in total awe.
