The Ultimate Adventure of a Lifetime

In case you did not know, my year has already been made because I was able to watch Coldplay in Manila in their A Head Full of Dreams Tour. 

Are you scratching your head wondering why after almost three months, I am still alive? That’s because of them. 

Many moons ago, I promised myself I will watch Coldplay no matter what happens. The idea was far-fetched then because they have never been to the Philippines. I conditioned myself then that I will go overseas just to see them play... Welp, not until November 2016 happened. 

Novemeber was when MMI Live announced Coldplay will be coming to Manila. I had no qualms, I did not complain about the shitty venue. All I wanted was to secure a ticket for myself, whatever it takes. I could afford to purchase a VIP ticket (heck, my parents were all for it), but it wouldn’t be practical for me. I regret that now, but I wouldn’t trade my first ever Coldplay experience for the world! To cut this ticket pre-sale story short, I got to secure a Gold ticket!

APRIL 04, 2017 | Tuesday

The face of a first-timer. It was my first time to ride the MRT. I expected that it was going to be a horrific experience for me, but to my surprise there were no lines and the girls are separated from the boys. Arielle took this photo because she was making fun of me. Haha. 

We decided to check in at Hotel 101, which is just six minutes away from the venue. I wasn’t expecting much, but the hotel is really nice (and always tidy, which is a bonus.) 

I was so bummed that security did not allow GoPros, but I was there for the concert anyway. When we entered the venue, I was frantically looking for Bea and luckily we did see each other before the concert started. 

It was a long wait and my feet got tired, but it did not matter anymore when the clock struck 9:30pm.

Truly, it was an adventure of a lifetime. As soon as I heard Chris sing “Oh, I think I landed in a world I have not seen...” I was like, same! I was jumping along with the crowd. I was so happy because the people who we were surrounded with were obviously huge Coldplay fans as well, most of them knew the lyrics to every song. We sang together, we hushed together when Chris sang Everglow, we partied to Paradise, we wept together when he sang Fix You and The Scientist, we collectively raised our hands in the air and cried when Yellow played. Every song was a highlight. Every second was monumental. The day was Magic. Always In My Head. Inked permanently in A Sky Full of Stars. I will never forget his song for Manila. We don’t deserve Coldplay!

To Guy, Jonny, Will, and Chris, you all are amazing. You don’t just have talent, you’ve got a lot of love to give in this world. Thank you for making wonderful music and spreading love, kindness, positivity, and unity all over the universe. You make us believe in love.

This blog post has got nothing on the Coldplay experience itself, but it will do.

We wanted more, but that was enough magic for that night. I’m sure we will see them again. 💜💙💚💛❤️
