My Saturday was spent at Sound Relief Sydney, snapping pictures, getting rained on and revelling in nostalgia.

The concert was held at the Sydney Cricket Ground in tandem with another concert at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with all proceeds going to benefit victims of the recent Victorian bushfires and Queensland floods.

Chris Martin and John Farnham

The highlight of the whole day came early, during Coldplay’s opening set when they brought out John Farnham to sing You’re the Voice. It was pretty spine tingling to hear that song belted out with a whole stadium singing along.

Chris Martin

Coldplay followed that with Fix You and another thrilling moment when Chris Martin leapt off the stage and into the audience and sprinted to the back of the crowd. The Channel V footage shows the chaos of it as the camera men struggle to work out where he’s gone.

Wolfmother

Wolfmother II followed Coldplay, debuting the new band.

Taylor Swift

Later in the afternoon Taylor Swift whipped the teens into a lather of Beatlemania style excitement. Girls were screaming and crying at the sight of her. Weird.

This was taken as Jet was playing Are You Gonna Be My Girl.

Iva Davies Icehouse

In another nod to nostalgia Icehouse performed in the early evening, running through their 80′s hits like Electric Blue and Great Southern Land.

To close the Sydney Sound Relief Concert we had a Beegee, in the form of Barry Gibb performing with Olivia Newton-John.

As impressive as the Beegees once were it was a strange choice of finale for the primarily young crowd.

The photos i took at Coldplay’s gig at the Sydney Entertainment Centre this week are now online at Triple J.

I’d post them here, but the complicated nature of photo contracts means i’m not sure if i’m allowed.

The gig was great – Chris Martin has become a fantastic showman. And i’m a sucker for those big anthemic singalong songs of theirs.
