Is anyone still out there? I am sure no one is still reading this since I have been home for awhile now, but here it goes.

So Tuesday night I went to the Coldplay concert at the White River amphitheater w/ a couple of my friends. It was an impulse purchase, because good seats became available, and my seats @ the London show weren't that great. I have never been to White River before, but I have heard the horror stories about the traffic. So I printed my directions, and also info about a shuttle at the Super Mall that was a 10 minute drive from White River.

We head out @ 7. The concert starts @ 8, but there is the opening band, so we got plenty of time. No Problem! Well @ 8:15 when I am still sitting on 167 I am starting to think differently! Finally we get to the shuttle buses (yellow school buses) @ 8:40. The bus leaves @ 8:45. At 9:30 we pull up. I was surprised not to hear Coldplay playing in the distance, because I thought for sure it had already started! Come to find out, I read today in the paper that they too were stuck in traffic! Only in Seattle!

So this is kind of amusing thing about this is that my experience in seeing Coldplay in London was so opposite. It was a breeze getting there, but a pain in the butt returning. So did I enjoy the 2 1/2 hours sitting in traffic vs. The 30 minute "crammed into a train car w/ wet people" train ride. That is a tough one.
