COLDPLAY: MUSIC OF THE SPHERES AT TOKYO DOME


That night I was confused about what to fill my free time with. Then suddenly my friend said that Coldplay would hold a concert in Tokyo exactly on my arrival date.
Actually, I'm not too interested in watching it, because I've already experienced it in 2017 in Singapore. but I've never had the experience of attending a concert at the Tokyo Dome. it's worth a try!
You can purchase tickets yourself on the day at the official booth, but seats are limited. Very different from buying tickets in Indonesia, which is difficult and chaotic.
After getting the ticket, you can queue in an orderly manner at your gate by going through inspection first



And speaking of collabs, the Japan section of the tour comes with a special guest — Yoasobi! The home act usually will include joint and individual performances between Coldplay and their guests. Yoasobi fans should expect something special, so keep your eyes peeled.
The concert started at 18:00, and opened with a performance by Yoasobi. After that, break for 30 minutes to prepare for Coldplay's performance.




During this 30 minute break I felt really amazed. We as spectators can go out to use the toilet, or buy food or drink, which we can even bring into the concert venue.
In fact, there is a traveling beer seller with an electronic payment machine in his left hand. You know the attendant at the cinema who brings popcorn and drinks, right? Well, exactly like that!
Even though they drank beer, no one got drunk or riotous. Everything is conducive. Honestly, I felt shocked, amazed, amazed, everything mixed into one!
Five minutes before 19:30, there was an announcement that Coldplay's performance was about to start. As a result, everyone outside rushed in and returned to their seats. And they are still very orderly! I'm really confused and amazed by the culture here.



The concert is split into four acts — Planets, Moons, Stars, and Home, representing Coldplay’s journey of discovery and music. You’ll hear classics and some of their most popular collaborations with other artists, such as their hit song “MY Universe” with virtual BTS members. The concert started again with A Head Full of Dreams, continued with Yellow and continued with The Scientist. Without any pause, Coldplay immediately played many other songs, until the last one was Biutyful.





As soon as Coldplay's concert started, I couldn't stop being amazed by their performance. Starting from the atmosphere, lighting, performance, fan service, communication... basically everything!
Especially when the song A Sky Full of Stars is played! Chris Martin asked all the audience to put away their cellphones and sing together. One Tokyo Dome stadium jumped while singing simultaneously. It's a sight and experience that is difficult to describe in words. We all felt like we were on the same energy level!




In the middle of the show, Chris Martin expressed his joy at being able to return to Tokyo. In 2009, Coldplay also performed in Tokyo. “Arigato gozaimasu. "See you again, maybe we will launch a new album in Tokyo," said Chris Martin.

That night was a night that is difficult for me to forget.
"The first time you do a thing is always exciting."
