Sitting in the rain at the arena now, so time for a few words about the concert: The entry was awful - most scanners did not work and then you had to run round half the arena as they had blocked all the other closer tunnels. We stayed at the B stage as we just could not run any more.
Concert was great, Chris was in a crazy mood. During GPASUYF there was smoke, but there was too much so Chris broke off apologizing saying it was his idea to have smoke but now it eas too much and this would happen when a singer has a bad idea. At the C-stage a fan had a sign asking for Looking back in anger so they spontaneously played that and another fan apparently shouted green eyes so they did that and skipped the request (which would have been Trouble). So now Chris had a problem as he had to play something while the others left for the msin stage so je improvised a pretty silly and long song about playing in Frankfurt. Before Everglow he mentioned the gay marriage decision in Germany and also later had a rainbow flag. No Violet Hill though.

Sounds like the perfect concert to me! I like this crazy stuff. Not knowing what to expect as long as it is good.
Sorry to hear you are sitting in the rain. Especially after the bad night. I hope you don't have to work or so tomorrow...

I love See you soon. Last year they played it a lot, but not at the gigs I went. Not much luck with the requests...

Sorry there was so much confusion surrounding the concert Jelena, but glad the concert itself went good. "Chris in a crazy mood" sounds fantastic!

Just now getting to read most of this, and WOW, you've had quite the time lately Jelena! Good and bad. I'm glad it all ended with great shows! Glad you and Dustin finally had the chance to meet and enjoy the pure happiness known as CP.

The Saturday concert was great also, we even managed to get to the barrier though it was not that good a spot (runway left side). But as we were late queueing and sooo tired we had not expected to get that far to the front at all. We got totally drenched by the rain though as the entry was 1 hour late and thinking we would get in at 4pm we had already gotten rid of our umbrellas and rain coats when really heavy rains set in. Again, they did not keep to the setlist for the C-Stage - it was supposed to be In My Place, Don't Panic and Trouble as the request from Evelyn that was canceled the night before. But instead they did Trouble (without request video, just a short mention "this is for Evelyn"), Don't Panic and UATW. Also they added POC at the B-stage though it was not on the setlist. We got GPASUYF but not Violet Hill (that was a "maybe" on the setlist). Tomorrow I will be off again to Hamburg for the Global Citizen Festival, so it will take some time to sort though my pics, will post them when I finally have some breathing space...
