Have you ever witnessed something so crazy that you genuinely thought it was a joke at first? Well I did, at the Coldplay Music of the Spheres Concert in Boston. The night started off amazing. The energy in the audience was truly out of this world. Everyone was singing and dancing to all of the songs that we know and love, including “Sky Full of Stars,” “Viva La Vida,” and my personal favorite “Sparks.” With every song that played, the lights in the stadium would coincide with the beats of the music which was a very cool touch, not to mention the fact that the concert was also run on renewable energy. This was done through kinetic dance floors, solar panels, recycled battery pack bracelets, and solar panel power bikes that were generated by audience members.Â
As the night progressed, the lead singer, Chris Martin, would pan to various audience members as a fun way of integrating them into the concert, whether it be inviting them to sing along or just asking them questions to further get to know each other. He is known for caring a lot about his fans and promotes strengthening a deeper connection with them during concerts. It just so happened that when he did this that night, he panned on what looked like a regular couple at first, until you see both individuals duck down and hide away from the camera. At first I assumed that they were just joking or performing a skit as part of the show, only to find out that I was very much wrong. My mom looked over to me and said “Someone looks like they got caught having an affair.” I looked at her, jaw dropped, when I realized that’s exactly what it is. The lead singer, Chris Martin, even made a comment about it right after saying “Either they’re having an affair or they’re just very shy.” The entire audience was shocked and kept making comments about it all night, baffled at the fact that they witnessed that. It wasn’t until after the concert that the situation had already blown up all over social media. I saw it first on TikTok where people had already been posting about the exact moment it happened. I was so shocked at how quick it surfaced the internet and the fact that I was there to actually witness that in real time.Â
I have never been to a concert where something like this has happened before and let’s just say it definitely made it an even more unforgettable experience than it already was! This concert was truly a once in a lifetime experience and I highly recommend going to see them if you can. The values, authenticity, and genuinity that the band Coldplay offers is like no other. Their music really is one of those things that is just so recognizable and is for all demographics. So if you have the opportunity to go to a Coldplay concert, do it! You never know what you may be missing out on, like witnessing a love affair!
