amsterdam528 Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Ok, what is all that stuff Chris wears on his hands? I know he's got the = for MTF on his left, and that bandage looking thing on his right, but what are those colored rings on his left fingers?

an_cat Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Ok there was something about this in Rolling Stone or Blender or something, I know there's a scan floating around and I don't have it. Maybe search, but I'm sure someone'll post the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marisa Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 It's 3m colored Tape. "Scotch® Colored Plastic Tapes are extra stretchy, conformable and moisture resistant. They can be used to repair, decorate, color-code or identify. These tapes should be applied to clean, dry, smooth surfaces." I caught one of these ( the green one) at the Cinn. show on aug 9th. check it out in my pics. I went out and bought a pack and now it sits waiting for me to have it signed by Chris one day! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldplay_steph Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Im sure i read somewhere that he wears the coloured tape to draw attention to the = sign....i'll try and find it... xoxox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplay_steph Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 He is wearing red and blue gaffer tape on his middle and index fingers, designed to draw attention to the Make Trade Fair "equals" sign he has drawn on the back of his hand. He never misses a chance to deliver the message. From The Guardian 'The Importance of being Earnest' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 Cool :cool: I thought the coloured tape was there to match the album cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplay_steph Posted September 9, 2005 Share Posted September 9, 2005 I think it was originally to draw attention to the = and now it kinda fits with the album too, which is cool. xoxox (PS-i had to mention this somewhere and didnt want to make a whole new thread about it, but HOW AMAZING is the part in the 'Fix You' video when Chris quickly puts his hand up by his face to show the MTF sign and then kinda stares at the camera!!?!? :D It's quite near the beginning, oh dear lord he looks SOOOOOO gorgeous!!!! Anyone know which part i mean? :huh: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the part where he "flashes" the logo, as I like to call it, during "stuck in reverse" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
