I saw Coldplay at The Meadows tonight (okay, officially it's the Comcast Theater, but I will always call it The Meadows). Chris and the boys were in good form, with a lot of energy and a clear effort to engage the Connecticut fans, apparently in an effort to make up for what they considered a crap performance in Hartford last summer. They clearly connected when they moved back to the lawn for a mini-set toward the end of the show.
