<p style="text-align: center;">Hopefully, I will be able to head out to Houston to see Ed and the gang play again this year. &nbsp;After their remarkable concert in Austin last year, I surely intend to try. &nbsp;However, I would truly love to have the opportunity and gift these folks received yesterday in Iowa. &nbsp;Well done, Ed.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">UPDATED: &nbsp;And, the following are videos from their concert yesterday, courtesy of BradmanTV, who broadcasted the whole enchilada last night:</p>

It sucks having to use one of two days off during a work week to run stupid errands and perform grueling little unmindful tasks. So, I&#8217;m doing this instead of cleaning up this room. (No, you can&#8217;t see how bad it is at the moment.)</p>
<p>I had the distinct pleasure of seeing Coldplay and Snow Patrol live this past Wednesday. I&#8217;d rate it in the top five performances I have ever seen and I&#8217;ve seen a lot of concerts live. Three hours nonstop of Coldplay live. Worth every centime! I recommend it highly. Chris Martin was amazing and especially down to Earth. Considering going to Houston in July to see it again. If any of my vids or pics turned out, I&#8217;ll post them later.</p>
<p>These are songs I have collected over the past couple of weeks, a few free and the remainder purchased. Enjoy! These are all really good songs.</p>
