Among them are Coldplay, whose debut Parachutes album crashed straight into the charts at number one. "I like bands who can play live," insists Ken Nelson. "That's what I've don…

I'm listening to "Politik (Live)" from the God Put a Smile Upon Your Face single, and at :40, I swear I hear someone in the crowd yell, "Get off the stage!". You may have to turn the speakers up to hear it, but it's quite funny. That is, of course, if that is what he's saying.

Hey guys and girls :D My friend Sophie Lankester got entered into a competition to win a chance to become a professional photographer for NME! The photo she has entered is an awesome one of Chris (see my profile pic) from the September 19th Wembley show we were both at (amazing :lol:) So if you want someone with obviously good musical taste and a real talent for photography working for NME you can vote for her here: http://www.findmyfreedom.co.uk/nme/view-photo.ashx?id=38b83375-bb44-4968-a3b4-f8d2c5702503&compid=4&fname=sophie&sname=lankester&votes=351&upload=1 This would mean so much to her and I am only asking because I know how genero…

I found a model of the Coldplay piano for The Sims, and I want to reskin it myself to make it be the one from the Viva la Vida tour. I'm having trouble finding decent reference pictures of the paint and stuff on it using Google; can you guys help me out?

Hello everyone... 2 or 3 months ago I made this drawing of the frontmen of my favorite bands! Actually these are 11 different drawings but all together in one. In the picture you'll find: 1. Chris Martin [Coldplay] 2. Fran Healy [Travis] 3. Noel Gallagher [Oasis] 4. Thom Yorke [Radiohead] 5. Brandon Flowers [The Killers] 6. Alexander Kapranos [Franz Ferdinand] 7. Matt Bellamy [Muse] 8. Tom Chaplin [Keane] 9. Alex Turner [Arctic Monkeys] 10. Leon Larregui [Zoé] <- This last one is a band of my country Mexico. I'm the one in the middle of the picture....

Okay, I kind of got it from the muse.mu forum. :P But I think it's a cool idea. It's a "Keeper Thread", and members of the Coldplaying forum can claim songs, clothes, lyrics, instruments, other forum members, threads, etc that are Coldplay related. It's just for fun, and you put your "keeps" in your signature to show them off. I'm hoping it'll bring a bit of life, fun, and energy into this section, as it feels rather dead currently with no tours or new songs or anything really exciting to discuss. The rules and whatnot from the Muse board are here What are your thoughts? I wouldn't mind organizing it, but I don't want to look like an idiot if nobody's willing to …

So, I was listening to 'I Ran Away' on my headphones today, and I noticed that in the beginning Chris says '1, 2, 3... Will!'. Has anyone else noticed this?! I always thought he just said '1, 2, 3...' but I have never listened to the song with headphones before :D Anyway, I thought it was kind of :cool: Will got a mention. Also, does anyone know if this is the only other track where Will has a drum solo at the beginning? (The other being 'In My Place').

Just walked upstairs and he is chilling doing his crosswords and listening to an acoustic Coldplay mixtape that mooseheadsfan made a few years ago.

It sounds like them but I dont know, I like to know the name of megafileupload.com/en/file/246191/Unknown-s--ng-mp3.html just cut and paste, could not make a link on my first post

Oh hey guys remember me? Yeah, you do. Anyway, I've been playing Tap Tap Revenge 3 lately, and I've been quite addicted to the Coldplay tracks. I'm beast at Speed of Sound. There's a tournament of sorts on Tap Tap right now, Pop vs. Rock. You pick a team, and must play all the free songs to help your team to victory. Pick team Rock, because beating all the free tracks lets you play Speed of Sound, which gives a whole lotta points towards Team Rock if played over and over and over.... so yeah.

Hi I've been painting on and off in my spare time over the last year or so and have been selling them over the internet. I prefer to do bands and things I like and am yet to paint a Coldplay picture, if anyone is interested in one just drop me a email and we can talk I can do pretty much anything! I have a link to my work on flickr but I cannot post it yet as I am a new member but if you search jack rooney paintings on people I will come up.

Does anyone know if this concert will take place?

Hi ! A french forum has decided that a dvd of the incredible shows we all have lived should be released ! So if you want to be part of it just sign it HERE

As a musician, I've dealt with the many stages of discovering my "personal style". I've gone through loud to rock, and from rock to horrible ryhthm. Yet, as Coldplay was introduced to me, I realized how great of musicians they are. They don't try to be like what's popular, they rather they be themselves. Obviously, they succeed with that. The same applies with me. I am not a fan of current music. Why? Because it all either sounds the same, or the voice of the singer is so fake, the song becomes unbearable. (Ke$ha - I'm looking at you.) I've settled into an acoustic style of playing, because it fits my lifestyle; it "feels" me. So, the reason I respect Coldplay the …

Hello, I have a quick question about the Viva crew. Back in August 2009, when I saw Coldplay live, I saw the Viva Crew wearing these t-shirts that said Viva Crew 2009 or something like that. And on the back was a drawing of butterflies and outlines of Coldplay and it was sick. So I was just wondering if anyone had any photos at all of the shirts. I have been looking and have had no luck. :( Sorry if there is already a thread like this. Thanks! :)

Glee creator Ryan Murphy has revealed some of the artists who will be featured in upcoming episodes. Speaking to E! News, Murphy said that Coldplay and Bryan Adams had refused permission to use their tracks, but revealed that Lady GaGa will be covered soon. "We're doing an episode that's a tribute to theatricality," he explained. "We reached out to Lady GaGa and she said, 'Yes, I'd love to be a part of it'. So we will be doing Lady GaGa this season." Murphy also revealed that Madonna was helpful when he asked her permission to make an episode based on her songs. "I've worked with Madonna before," he said.

As you all seemed to like the little snippet of Ford & Bones in video 1 of Slashed and there is more to come in video 2... I have decided to write a Coldplaying only mini-series about the adventures of Ford & Bones BEFORE they reached their untimely demise in Slashed. Did I spoil the ending for you? Im sure you already know anyway... So I'm writing episode 1 now and should be finished in the next few days. Maybe we can get someone to animate it or something one day?! Its going to be Ford & Bones facing supernatural foes with a pocketful of poetry and only their comedy timing to save them. I'm thinking a bit like Scooby Doo but with more blood. T…

I'm not quite sure where to post this, so if it needs to be moved, I apologize in advance. I am putting songs on my ipod and am trying to find "album artwork" for Christmas Lights. Anyone have anything they'd be willing to let me use? I've tried googling but haven't found anything yet. Thanks in advance. Again, my apologies if this is in the wrong place.
