Gratitude was also shown by Coldplay's drummer, Will Champion. He drew Monas and the word Jakarta on his drumset.
"Well, better late than never. It took us 25 years to be able to perform in Jakarta and for me to reach the B-stage section to then remember to upload this photo," wrote Will, which was later uploaded by Coldplay's official account.
After Jakarta, Coldplay will continue their Music of Spheres tour to Perth and Kuala Lumpur. Some of the proceeds from this tour will be donated to various countries for deforestation, river and ocean clean-up, and various other nature conservation activities.
