A clicking success
Just a quick one about the video that we've been showing before Coldplay come on. Again last night, the atmosphere was incredible as the video played out. Suddenly, a loud click reverberates around the arena, everyone looks at the screen, and for the next few minutes the whole crowd is transfixed.
The reaction to the video has just been getting better and better, culminating in last night in Stockholm.
I really wish you could all be here at the concert to see and hear the reaction - it sends shivers up my spine everytime. It's funny really - I've seen the video so many times during the editing stage, that I know it inside out but I still get nervous when that first click sounds. I want so much for the crowd to appreciate it, and for the video to mean something to them. Like any good thing, it delivers everytime, and seems to get better with age!
The best part of the whole thing is straight after the video, instead of having to ask people to sign the petition, hundreds of people come up to our volunteers demanding an action card. It's amazing.
It's a hugely humbling experience to be able to be a part of all this. To see volunteers so enthusiastic, the public so excited, and everyone so keen to sign the petition is brilliant.
