It has been a long time Dream of mine to see Coldplay live and FINALLY my dreams came true.  I was fortunate to take some time off of work and venture to Northern California for the Coldplay concert in Marysville at the “Sleep Train Amphitheatre.”  When we arrived in Marysville, I was concerned about the heat outside; it was a scorching 103 degrees but I assumed once the concert started the sun would be going to bed for the evening and hopefully that would make for a very pleasant evening.  There is is soooooo much to say about Colplay live but I will say this….”Coldplay was the best LIVE performance I have ever witnessed!”.  Though this may seem like a bold statement, I was truly moved by the clarity of sound and overall stage presence of the band.  Coldplay captivated the audience with songs dating back to the late 90’s (when they first busted onto the music scene) to their most current tracks off of “Viva La Vida”.   Coldplay’s set was about 2 hours.  What I love about Coldplay is their ability to control the audience and take us on a musical journey with both the Sounds and the Lights. Also, Colplay gave us a great treat when they performed an acoustic tribute to Michael Jackson playing “Billie Jean”….truly stellar and moving.  I am at a loss of words (which is rare) but If you ever have the chance to see Coldplay Live, PLEASE…PLEASE GO!, you will thank me later. I give Coldplay: +++++ …EXCELLENT!!!!
