On July 16, Coldplay kicked off the first of a two-night run at MetLife Stadium in the heartland of East Rutherford, New Jersey. The colorful show was a part of their tour for their 2015 album A Head Full of Dreams.

They handed out wristbands ahead of the show that lit up in a variety of colors in sync with the songs, which did add a bit of fuel to the new songs which are a bit lacking. This was a pretty cool trick, but it was the more C-stage set where they stripped things down with stripped down performances of “In My Place” and “God Put A Smile On Your Face” that really made the night special, a reminder of the Coldplay that so many of us want to remember.

Find the setlist posted below, along with some shots that I took from my seat in the stadium.
