HAPPY/MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HOLIDAYS TO YOU ALL!

 

But I thought here is where you could boast your Coldplay Christmas aquisitions, seeing as how if you browse this board, you're probably a pretty big Coldplay fan and so your family knows that anything pretaining to them would be better than just about anything.

 

I got a book. It's called "Coldplay: Nobody Said It Was Easy" by Martin Roach. I think I've heard of it before, but it gives a very raw and in depth look into the growth and origins of the band as well as some pictures I've never seen before. :) (There's actually a very funny accont of when Chris got plastered after Will walked out in recording sessions and he was in Guy's apartment. Guy went out on a date and he came back and found Chris passed out on his living floor in a puddle of Ribena-laced vomit *Gross*.)

 

My mom says that there's something else in the mail and I have a feeling that it's the 2006 calendar, but I could be wrong.

 

Did anyone else get any tasty Coldplay goodies for Christmas? :D

^that book is kinda cool, I got it last summer and I like it.

 

 

oh, and I got the talk dvd-single for christmas. :smug:

I got sooo many cool Coldplay stuff :D

 

I got the 2006 Calendar (which was damaged in transit pretty bad, that sucks!) and the Clocks Japan EP (including my favourite b-sides ever: Crests of Waves, Animals, Murder - that's why I wanted it ;) ).

 

Aaaand the best things are still in transit:

The 'Yellow' Litograph and THE BLUE ROOM EP (which I'm happiest about, my mother obviously ordered it on ebay which is sooo damn nice of her, hell I love her :kiss:)..

 

So, as you can see, my parents DO know how much I love Coldplay :wink3:

My parents don't know it :/

But... uhm... I kinda like my new shawl, lol ;-)

 

Anyhow, have very much fun with all your brand-new coldplay-stuff! Maybe i'll get myself some nice coldplay-presents in future ;-)

any more funny acconts?please

WOW.

 

A lithiograph, calandar and two rare EPs? ENVY!

 

And dajrekshn, another one was when Chris was booed off stage when he was young. He was in a band (I think he was like 15 or something) and wore a horrible leather waistecoat and was acting like Bono. Poor Chris. :(

 

And It also said that Will had to go to an alternative school because he wasn't the "ideal" primary school student. He said his classmates ended up "graduating" to prison for rape, murder, and arson. :stunned:

 

Hmmm... And then it said that Guy had heard of Jonny and Chris' "baby band" and approched them about it completly drunk in a bar. The next day he was in their dorm writing songs and he was so enthusiastic (Even more so than Chris if you can beleive it) that Chris and Jonny accepted him. :lol:

 

And Will was nothing more than a casual aqquaintence and hockey partner of Chris' (They actually met first) before Will arranged an audition with his room mate who was a drummer. They showed up, room mate wasn't there (Was off his face at some pub) so Will picked up the drums so he felt that he wasn't wasting their time and viola!

 

Oh and another on Will: He worked at the Glastonbury festival as a stage hand or something one summer. It says that the headliner, James Brown was being a real pain and running through the production rooms shouting and throwing fits and stuff. Finally, Will came on the intercom and announced "Sorry, but Mr. Brown will not be performing until he is equipped 12,000 Tommy Hilfiger rucksacks and silk drape to stand on."

 

It also said that Will was the manager before Phil came along. He's the one who booked the Camden gig and everything.

 

Phew.

My calendar arrived Christmas Eve. :lol: I ordered it back in October anyway.

 

I actually didn't ask for anything Coldplay. The poster I asked for I bought myself... I couldn't help it. :lol:

:lol: will manager :lol: thanks , any other stories, these are great, any other regarding guy? :lol:

I added another on Will in my post daj. ;)

 

And I'll come back with more once I've read more. :D

great,thanks :)

That drunken Chris story was pretty sick. :lol: Was that the time he did it out of guilt?

 

Leave it up to Guy to start out drunk, too. :lol:

I got a piano and Live 8 DVD..

Coldplay enough for me :smug: :lol:

Piano?

 

Like... a piano piano?

Yep!

 

And yeah... don't expect Guy to hold anything back. It says that Guy actualyl scared Chris. Chris said something like "He was a foot shorter than me it seemed, but I thought 'This is it... this is the man who is going to kill me in my sleep'." But then found out that he was actually very shy and soft-spoken rather than moody(Except in music). :)

Piano?

 

Like... a piano piano?

 

Nah... Like recorder piano.

All right. :lol:

 

I gotta get this book. WHY DID I NOT ASK FOR THIS BOOK?!

I asked for many coldplay things.

Did I get them.

No.

I hate how it is impossible to find Coldplay stuff.

grrr

wait mandymcnabb and frostbitpanda are the two same ppl? :o

O_o

 

Uh... no. :lol:

I was joking! :P :lol:

 

(Actually it was my physic powers, but I try not to brag.)

oh..i'm so dumb :/

YO FROSTY!!!! :lol: I have that book, its rocks!!! :thumbsup:

 

I didnt get anything specifically Coldplay, but my mum bought me my 1st electric guitar and the AROBTTH tab book....i've been sat playing for hours, (my fingers KILL :stunned: ) and i've taught myself (can only play them slowly at the mo) the riff's of In My Place and GPASUYF!!!! :D :D :D YAAAY!!!!!!!!! :D :D
