Just some thoughts about the concert...
-- started 50 minutes late. i mean, concerts usually start later than posted, but I might have been able to stay for the whole show if he started just 30 minutes late...
-- seating plan. if they knew people were going to stand on chairs, why put chairs in the bowl at all? this is where i prefer the pit section of concerts in US...at least everyone will be at the same height, and it is much safer to stand on the ground than the chair. am definitely buying the seats on the side next time...
++ sound was better than i expected
++ it was "cute" (according to my gf) that he got the lyrics wrong on Yellow
++ him breaking the law
++ pretty responsive audience
++ nice venue (though i have never been to the exhibition center in wan chai for concerts)
and here is a partial set list (i had to leave early)..
Square One
Politik
Yellow
Speed of Sound
God Put a Smile on Your Face
What If
Parachutes
White Shadows
The Scientist
Til Kingdom Come
Ring of Fire (Johnny Cash cover)
Trouble
Clocks
then i had to leave...can anyone fill in the rest of the list?
