"We rehearsed for this concert 142 times in cities around the world," said Chris Martin from the organize Friday gloaming at Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre. The captain crooner and keyboardist for one of the world’s most average daze bands Coldplay was referring to the experience that its progress junket has been international since the come out with just over a year ago of "Viva La Vida," its fourth album. The concert showed just how authority and controlled Coldplay has become with all that touring. Following the same key systematize to the show they’ve been doing for this tour, Coldplay delivered all the hits and many other audience favorites with a nicely developed degeneration and purl to the might train as the night went on.
Opening with "Life in Technicolor," performed in divide behind a monumental backlit black curtain which revealed the diversified shapes and shadows of the troop members, Coldplay began with a explode of excitement from the latest album before slowing down for one of its trademark ballads, "Clocks," which is built on Martin’s near-minimalist piano chords. "In My Place" was more jubilant, as Martin bounded recklessly across the station and out into sections jutting into the lot on each side. For "Yellow," the number which kickstarted the band’s unstoppable ascent on the bug out charts back in 2000, hundreds of mammoth yellow balloons were released into the audience, creating a surreal fantasyland taste that would in fact be topped before the sunset was over.
Chris Martin’s vocals, which can quota some of the boasting of U2’s Bono, but which every so often hit a good-looking sincere approach to match his undeniable melodic gifts, were in great pattern all night, whether he was seated at the piano, unseated still playing guitar, or skipping around the trump up with an abandon curiously reminiscent of a 5-year-old not convinced anybody is in truth watching. The take one's ease of the ribbon - lead guitarist Johnny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman, and drummer/harmony cantor Will Champion - weren’t showmen in Martin’s manner, but played with correctness and energy throughout the concert. Other highlights included "42," which alternated between a haunting piano balladry and a hypnotizing and influentially danceable techno break; the very devoted device ballad of "Fix You," the unstoppable exhilaration of the very direct yet incredibly robust "Viva La Vida," on which Champion pounded a kettle drum harder than such an mover could ever have seen before; and the somber set closer, "Death and All His Friends." For "Lovers in Japan," the collect was pelted with confetti of thousands of multi-colored daily butterflies, a superior eyesore indeed.
Twice, the bind liberal the paramount put on to caper on sputnik stages set up within the crowd. As his bandmates huddled around a undersized piano, Coldplay put together a techno remix of "God Put a Smile Upon Your Face," then port Martin to attention a alone understanding of "The Hardest Part." Even better was the acoustic set they performed on a stage-manage set up on the sward in back. With Champion and Buckland on acoustic guitars, and Berryman on mandolin, they sang a sprightly "Green Eyes," and an incredibly pitiful comprehend of Michael Jackson’s "Billie Jean," added to the show a few weeks ago after the crack caption passed away. Before Coldplay, Amadou and Mariam, two fool musicians from Mali in West Africa, led an vitalizing horde through a set of polyrhythmic pleasures which could undeniably have gone on for a match up more hours.
Amadou’s guitar playing, in particular, was a delight, combining blues-inflected leads with numbing lilt riffs. The show was opened by Kitty, Daisy & Lewis, three very boyish (16 – 21) siblings from London who have fallen in young man with rockabilly, ska, historic jazz, and several other roots music forms which yearn predate their births. Each of the siblings played multiple instruments, and abetted by their parents on guitar and bass, this type platoon was strongly entertaining.
