I have written in the past how music can be inspiring. I haven’t though taken it one step further and talked about one of the most magical events that we get to experience, live music. It’s definitely one of my favorite things to do. It really doesn’t matter the genre of music, I just like to see live bands in concert.

Sometimes though there is a chance to experience a truly special performance. The Coldplay concert was one of those events. There has been recently so much sorrow and hatred going around in the world. From Orlando, to Dallas, to Nice, to Turkey, to Baton Rouge, the list is sickening. At times you really wonder if there is still love in the world.

Then you get to see Coldplay. The show can only to described by one word….LOVE.
The whole show was a journey of love between the band and the audience and hopefully everyone around the world. There was plenty of confetti, pyrotechnics, and spectacular lighting that is a Coldplay trademark, but this show was much more than that. Chris Martin the lead singer’s actions exuded love and gratitude to his fans. He successfully took all of the cynicism and bewilderment away from the audience for 2 wonderful hours. It kind of reminded me of show that the Beatles might of choreographed in the psychedelic decade of the 1960s. During the Vietnamese war they only spoke of love not hate. Coldplay did the same.

If you have a chance go see them. What a treat!
