Coldplay

..are getting the In My Place emails about presale for all of the shows? I'm not sure how they do it, do they send out and email to EVERYONE for every show individually? I just noticed that the presale is open for another show (its in Europe) and I haven't got an email for it. What if I wanted to go to Europe to see them? lol

So they closed the presale early, emails will go out today to those who ordered. Luckily I applied for one immediately when the gig was announced. The thing is that from what they're saying I gather that there were more tickets requested than there are available, and I haven't gotten any email yet! :/ Anyway my question is whether anybody else has gotten an email already?

From the local station KROQ's website: All day long KROQ is the only place for your tickets to see Coldplay tonight at the Troubadour. Listen to KROQ and every time we play Coldplay be caller 20 at 800-520-1067 to win your passes to see them tonight! A limited number of tickets for the show are going on-sale today starting at 5pm at the Troubadour Box Office. Tickets are on a first come first served basis for $10 each. Cash only one ticket per person no exceptions. Doors will open at 8pm. Good Luck!

I was wondering if any of you have any idea when the tour dates will be scheduled for North America? I am going on a long vacation and there is absolutely no way in hell I am missing the tour this time around, absolutely no way.

I know that the band has played a few new songs live (Square One, What If, A Message, White Shadows)..... is there any place to hear/ download the live versions of these songs??

Until now I've only seen 2 pics here, but there are loads more on http://www.gettyimages.com , mostly Chris. I'll post some of them here.

I've re-uploaded (is that a real word???) the live songs from the weekends gig. You can get them from teh link below http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15260&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 Let us know if they don't work!

...pretty cool I think (for you non-Britons The Times is a relatively respected, broadsheet newspaper) and this review was in it today :) That hit formula still works “CHECK this out,” said Chris Martin, towards the end of Coldplay’s hour-long set. “We think it’s f***ing great.” He was right: the song, entitled What If?, is almost certain to extend Coldplay’s global franchise, sticking to the band’s patented formula of a tender, annoyingly sensitive verse, coupled with a chest-beating, falsetto chorus. It’s the kind of music that makes you want to a take a soulful walk across a blasted heath wearing an old school scarf. Fans will enjoy working out whether th…

This song is fast growing on me as one of my favorites of the new stuff I've heard. I've had the chance to really listen to them on the iPod and I reall really like the melody, lyrics, rhythm (sp? lol), and such of the song. Very good, just sounds great and flows together wonderfully. Well, this is based on nothing but my opinion lol, but I think a perfmorance video is what would work well. Something so everyone can see them again, kind of like what they did with In My Place. Not only that but I think Speed of Sound would do very well as a performance video. Maybe something with lights and flying stars in space or some cool effects like that would be nice!

I think this album is really going be huge. After listening to the new songs that were at KCRW (kevvvy is awesome for converting the FLAC files) I really think its going to win a lot of people that didn't necessarily like them before (weirdos lol). Its still cedrtainly our Coldplay, but its different and refreshing. I can't wait to here this new live stuff as studio version.

Anyone going to this gig?

I would like to see them together, my friend doesnt believe in me wehn i say they are married. Plus i would like to see them together my self :)

Every interview, concert, etc.. about the new album, "it's f***in brilliant". Perhaps a page out of Bono's book?

She has teeth!!! :nice: Courtesy Sarah, Visions of G.Paltrow

Predict what you like! Album name (& how many words) Album cover colour & art Exact date of release Number of tracks Which 'already known' tracks will be on? Price (add a years inflation) :P Number of singles released Track number of first single Track number of subsequent singles How many tracks piano based and how many guitar based Freakish naming of a track based on the 'baby' (don't say Marianne :P) Any more you can think of :cool: All I know is I've had a vision that there were 11 tracks :D :wink3:

Coldplay's interview with Zane Lowe on Radio 1 [7th March 2005] www.coldplaying.com/members/radio/coldplayinterview07032005.mp3 mp3, 192kbps, ~15Mb Thanks to enajh2 for the file!

Well, on top on the KCRW show that I got (thank you kevvvy), I think I'll probably end up downloading atleast one more full concert. There's just so much that I don't want to miss out on until June, or even when they might make it anywhere close to Pittsburgh. What about everyone else?

Made this one awhile ago too - not the easiest song to play - guitar needed alot of weird tuning ( but that's normal for Coldplay :-) http://rapidshare.de/files/823944/Nick_Saunders_-_Sparks_-_Coldplay_cover_version.mp3.html

I have WAV files of the Sounds Eclectic show. Please email me at [email protected] if you want them. I also have AOL IM, which is much faster, screen name WBFOKara. :)

Check out the official site folks :cool:

Here's the clip in reverse http://s33.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1C9D2AL2PYLXO242CN62NVSR4T Hes actually not bad at that backward singing malarky. Nailed the chorus pretty much!! Anybody looking for mp3's of the show then I can send them to you. Just IM me on MSN and I'll try my best for you.

Taken from the official board: I just found this on google:- http://www.rockdirt.com/article3955.html Chris Martin Doesn't Like Hearing Coldplay On Radio Posted on Wednesday, October 23 @ 15:48:57 CDT by MusicMan Capital FM in London chatted with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin about his band taking home several Q Awards, and asked the singer if all this success has gotten to his head. "No, because whenever I hear our songs on the radio, I always think they're rubbish," he said. "That's why we write new songs, because we think we can do better. For six months when we were making the album I thought 'The Scientist' was the best song of all time, no joking, …

Ive been trying to find somewhere that i can listen to any of the new songs as my university network in halls wont let me download and good songs!!!!! I really want hear the songs before i go and buy the album. can anyone help?
