I'll be there too. So pumped for this show. I love Alpine!!!!!!!
that's cool. Have a good time guys. Wonder is Martin will bust out the white glove for Billie Jean?
Indifference71: You rocking the lawn?
I'd love to see the glove. Well...if I can see from way back there. One Dave show it was too windy so they didn't put the screens up...couldn't see a thing. I don't remember much of that show..but that didn't have much to do with the view.
I've got a bunch of friends going down for Dave this weekend...always an adventure..
Sorry for the delayed response, just got back from Vegas and finally starting to feel semi-human again. But yeah, I'll be rocking the lawn. We got a party bus coming up from Chicago....looking forward to some major tailgating this Saturday.
Coldplay put on a good show, but I'm obviously totally spoiled by seeing PJ.
Pearl Jam come back to Alpine!!!
Indifference - were you the guy in the avocado shirt that I talked to in the parking lot? He was from Chicago and was tailgating heavily... ...so was I, so who knows.

It was good... they put some really strange like.. techno beats behind a lot of their songs live, and that coupled with the video screens that nearly made me have a seizure kind of turned me off a bit. I could tell that the crowd down front was really into it... but most of the people back on the lawn where I was didn't seem to be too into it.
Maybe it was the rainstorm that put a little damper on things... haha
Chris Martin is quite a showman... running back and forth across stage. He had some funny banter too.. but I don't know... there's just something about a band in costume that turns me off.

did they pull of Billie Jean good? And how was the almighty Viva la Vida live? I kinda got into Coldplay due to Clocks but Viva put me over the edge. I go next Monday in Boston. Gonna start tailgating at noon. Please sun, show your face!!!

Billie Jean was cool. They came out onto the lawn... stood on top of one of the sound platforms maybe? They were still at least 5 miles away from where I was..haha Scripted as it may have been...still gotta give them props since it was raining pretty hard at the time. Didn't spy the glove... They did play Green Eyes and another song or two while they were out there.
Viva sounded good.. got me dancing (but only a little... was trying to avoid falling down in the mud. )
Yellow and Haiku make for an awesome stage show. I hope you're sitting close... if you're on the lawn, I would say it's worth it to get there a bit early to get down there... but then again, the lawn at Alpine is HUGE.

Yeah, it's nice to be up close at their concerts because then you really feel like a part of it...if you're too far back, it'll still be fun, but you won't enjoy it as much.
One of my favorite parts of the concert is when the butterfly confetti comes down in "Lovers in Japan".
