Hopefully this hasn't already been posted? If it has been then feel free to delete it please! A Coldplay roadie's diary of excess You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll yawn. A Coldplay roadie reveals all in a no-holds-barred account of life on tour The Dirt, the story of Mötley Crüe's descent into druggy, boozy mania might be packed with stories of death, orgies with porn stars and car crashes, while Led Zep chronicle Hammer Of The Gods has underage groupie sex, backstage assaults and guitarists dressed as Nazis. But next up in the canon of tell-all rock tour memoirs is guitar tech Matt McGinn's Roadie: My Life On The Road With Coldplay with its tales of chee…

As Chris gets a mention in the first episode of this series, and Jonny, Guy and Will may well feature in the other episodes, you might want to check this out or search for a download of it. I've just been watching it and it's an interesting and informative programme all-round, anyway.:D What is the DNA of a great rock 'n' roll band? The series breaks this mythical beast down into its constituent parts: singer, guitarist, drummer as well as the shadowy 'other one', whose face we don't quite know but without whom the magic wouldn't happen. The evidence is examined closely in forensic studies of what makes these rock 'n' roll types tick, starting with the lead sing…

Ultimate-Guitar.com posted an article today claiming the title of Coldplay's fifth album is "The Beehive". Wether or not this is a mistake, or just early judgment is uncertain. Here's the full quote: 'The Beehive' is a follow-up to 2008's 'Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends' and is set to be released by the end of the year. The full article can be read here

It's another year gone and opinions may have changed. Here's the results of what was polled in mid 2008. Graphical http://rateyourmusic.com/list/TheScientist/top_50_coldplay_songs_by_coldplay_fans Forum Thread http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49518&page=3 This was of course before the Prospekt's March EP and people have also had enough time to change their opinions on their prior songs, perhaps even drastically. So here's the rules (same as before): 1. Collaborations are ok, as long as the entire band was in on it (aka no Homecoming, All things come to, etc...) 2. Covers are allowed 3. Different versions of songs do not count (No Lo…

There's an amazing a capella group called Straight No Chaser that I saw last night in DC. They sang Fix You, which was awesome. Even though it's not as good as our boys, it's still worth a listen. This is the studio version, since the vid from the DC concert isn't up yet. Enjoy! :) [ame= ] [/ame]

...from a non-fan point of view.. From: http://www.charge-shot.com/2010/04/thoughts-of-aspiring-music-snob-week-56.html Coldplay seems to be one of the more divisive bands of the last decade. On one side, people argue that the group is responsible for some beautiful, melodic anthems. On the other side, there are those who argue that Coldplay, like, totally sucks. Britons voted Coldplay as the band most likely to put them to sleep. And merely dipping my toe in the water of online music criticism this week, I could already see the sharks of Coldplay haters circling ominously, waiting for the kill. And I can't even deny that these haters don't have something to …

I recently became a fan of Jon Hopkins official Facebook page. Apparently he reads and responds to things because I asked him "Are you working with them at all on LP5?" and he responded with "Been asked to, yes. But don't know when"!

Hi Everyone, I made this tribute video just to show how much I adore our boys. I use Viva La Vida because it's my favourite song and it just seems to fit really well. Dear Mods, if you need me to change anything on this post, please let me know. I'm still relatively new and I'm not 100% sure about things. Thanks so much for watching and hope you like it.

I'm a new enough fan to have never been on these boards when an album has been leaked. Infact I'm not certain which LP has been leaked in the past, I heard that VLV was leaked, but I dunno about the rest. I'd just like to know how these come-about really? And how long before a release date does it generally or possibly happen too? Cause even though I really hope that LP5 is not leaked, if it is, I am not strong enought to resist the temptation of getting it asap :( I'll still buy it ofc when its released for real, but I just will not be able to wait any longer! Plus, have other leaks been posted on here?... Thanks! :D

So. I like making graphics for others, especially for those who don't have a program to make stuff for themselves, so I thought I'd start a thread where anyone can request an avatar or a signature. I just need... Size: Text: (Optional) Photo(s): Usually avatars that I make are 100 x 100. But, you can pick a size. Some other sizes I see around here are 150 x 150. Usually signatures I make are 500 x 200. But, you may pick a size. You may request as many times as you want, by the way. I apologize in advance if I don't get it to you right away. Especially signatures. Avatars don't take me long at all. If you want view my work go: HERE Thanks much. …

107 Coldplay, A Rush of Blood to the Head 2002 These British romantics resurrected sincerity, giving other musicians the right to wear their hearts on their sleeves -- and accompany it with strings. "Unless you consider sighing a form of aerobic exercise, Coldplay aren't really about body-moving," SPIN wrote in 2002. "They're about ballads. And the best ones here have a stately, spacy grace, like what Bono might come up with after a couple weeks on an iceberg with Nordic warblers Sigur Ros." John Mayer explained the thrill of songs like "Clocks" to the magazine in 2004: "Coldplay makes everyone feel like as if they are the stars of their own movie." Ful…

A lot of critics praised the performance, though. How important is it for you this time around, if at all, to have that critical praise? Love: Well, I don't really read reviews. I read, like, David Fricke [of Rolling Stone], I read Robert Hilburn [of the Los Angeles Times]. I read [Jon] Pareles [of the New York Times]. Pareles gave me a pretty good review, actually, which he's never given me a bad review. He wrote something on the case against Coldplay. So vicious. But [his Hole review] was like, "Swagger. Incorrigible. A star." And that was his Twitter. I was having this huge identity crisis and the reason I know about the case against Coldplay is because I'm frien…

Given Chris' very vocal support of Barack Obama in the US, do you think he will come out publically in favour of the Lib Dems as many are speculating, see: http://www.virginmedia.com/music/features/popstar-voting.php?page=6 http://www.libdemvoice.org/what-do-colin-firth-kate-winslett-andrew-motion-brian-eno-have-in-common-17954.html
