Coldplay - July 1, 2006

Kim and I took a last night out on the town together. We started our evening with the only decent nachos in town - Hard Rock Cafe. Sad, but true... good nachos were not to be found in Melbourne. Those Aussies need some Mexicans to come to town and give them a dose of yummy queso and salsa! I digress...

From here we caught a taxi to Rod Laver Arena to see Coldplay. I had advanced purchase tickets putting us in the front row. Problem is, when it said "best available" was general admission I couldn't believe it, so I went with the front row instead... would've helped if I would have paid attention to the set-up. However, we were above the court area so our view wasn't obscured and it was still totally enjoyable as we screamed and sang and laughed. Awesome!

He finished our night by heading down some alleyways to some cool bars. I cant remember the first one we stopped in, but we headed to the Croft Institute from there - a cool bar that looks like a chemistry lab downstairs and played fun dance music upstairs where people were grooving.

Kim and I got our drink on and relived our glory days and lamented our last days. It was a great final night out with her.
