That, my friends, is a real man.

 

And more like it!

 

*breathes*

 

 

oh my god. Seriosuly though, I've never gone for almost a year without having a lull in liking a band, it's happened with everyone. I mean I've never even felt this strongly for a group of artists as I did with even Coldplay... it's insane. Omg.

 

:heart:

I'm laughing SO hard now you wouldn't believe :laugh3: :laugh3: :laugh3: :laugh3: :laugh3: :laugh3:

I know man, I know. :nice:

 

My sister was saying the other day that she's noticed that in some ways i'm worse than I was with Coldplay, yet better in other ways...like, not so weirdly obsessive.

I think it's cos they're so 'reachable' unlike Coldplay always were/are, so it's like I feel that they are on my level. Not like some untouchable gods that I can only dream about but never be near/touch.

Plus...they're just a lot fucking better :laugh4:

 

And not a-holes when I meet them :uhoh: :lipsrsealed2:

 

 

 

:laugh4:

STOP IT YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME NIGHTMARES!!!

 

lmfao lmfao

 

No, but seriously.

 

Stan helps though. Seriously, my teacher is skinnier than him! It's so fucked up. He just like dissapears sometimes. I'm totally having a crush on him. I giggle around him! GIGGLE! That's just embarassing. Totally relevant that was. Ignore that part.

 

 

 

But seriously. Reading fiction is one thing but kiddie-porn?! Ewwwwww! Just no... It's gross.

 

 

 

Not like some untouchable gods that I can only dream about but never be near/touch.

 

*nods* :heart:

when you met them? you mean Coldplay? :surprised:

that's one of the things that surprised me the most when I started to know them. The proximity they have with their fans, this contact, that's what makes them even more special. :nice: I don't like the feeling of being obsessed with a band you can only see once a year if you're lucky, that are unreachable, as you said.

Exactly....and i'm so glad they've said in recent interviews that they want to keep playing small venues and never be out of reach of fans. So so glad :nice:

 

I met Chris Martin the other week. After years of longing to.

 

And to be honest...he was a bit of a prick. :sick:

 

I kinda expected it though. Fame has gone to that man's head. :rolleyes:

oh, did they? I didn't know it!! That's so soo great! :dance:

 

well, I saw Kara's picture with Chris, and she told me a little bit the experience. She said he seemed to be in a hurry.. actually he doesn't even look at the camera while they took the picture! :uhoh:

 

anyway, I expected that as well. They're way too famous. Perhaps, a few years ago they were different, but I think they've changed for bad. :sick:

 

cuckoooo

 

cuckoooooo

 

I'm gonna sleep! Night!:kiss:

1. lmfao Tea it's alright, if I had a teacher even a quarter as hot as Stan I'd just... lose my mind. My band teacher's pretty cute but not my type at all. I do flirt with him, but more in a joking way. LMFAO plus I flirt with everyone, it's stupid :rolleyes: omg I'm so Mark today LMFAO ACK.

 

2. I'd send the pictures to you guys if you want 'em :sneaky: :sneaky: no seriusly, you really don't want to see them. I feel like puking thinking of them again. Like I mean, if it was ANYONE else... actually no. Not even that. So.. ew. It just looks really gross and out of place and like, dude, put that away! There's like 10 of the pictures, I only looked at 1 and a half cuz the other one kept loading down and down and I swear it was going to his penis and I didn't want to see that!

 

3. ANYWAYS

 

4. I love the Libertines/DPT/Shambles/Yeti way more than I ever have for Coldplay. No, I'm not joking about that. That's what I've been deciding as I sit here. I mean.... they're REALLY real to me. Their music has a blood and guts to it. It's like they took their hearts out and beat them into the studio recording room's floor. You can just feel the music, deep deep down. I only listen to them very loudly so I really can, and oh jeez, when I listen to them in my car... forget it! I turn the bass ALL the way up and let my car vibrate, it's just powerful stuff. And the lyrics make sense...... hahaha.... :uhoh:

 

5. Plus they really are total sweethearts. Steph, your story about Chris really bothered me..... Like I was already hanging onto Coldplay by a really REALLY thin thread... then I read that and it was sort of the end of it. These guys will never get like that, I'm positive. They're just..... they don't want it, either. You know? Like the Libertines always wanted to play small venues, and Stan and Carl have said in interviews that they want it that way, no bars between them and the fans, and the idea of playing stadiums is "cool" but not "them". I love that. They're shooting for reality, not superstardom. I really respect that. In a lot of ways they've had to deal with more shit than Coldplay to get to where they're at, a LOT more shit, and I love that about them.

 

6. I just really feel like I'm on the wrong forum lately, like I shouldn't be posting here anymore, but..... for you guys I wouldn't leave, yanno? Just.... it's weird! I dunno there's lots more I can say, but.... ah.

Aww...they said that :nice: :)

 

Fuck, when did it get 2am? lmfao night girls! Have fun ;)

 

 

edit: 6. I just really feel like I'm on the wrong forum lately, like I shouldn't be posting here anymore, but..... for you guys I wouldn't leave, yanno? Just.... it's weird! I dunno there's lots more I can say, but.... ah.

 

Totally with you there... I mean, I love Coldplay and I always will but I've kinda grown apart from them. It's so sick cause I've been listening to Babyshambles and The Libertines for the same amount of time as I've listened to Coldplay (obsessivly, didn't get really obsessed until Live8 ;)) and when Itunes shuffles up a Coldplay-song I skip it cause it just bores me... And that's why The Libertines are my favorite band. They don't ever bore me. There's just such a wide range of genres they've taken on and such a history so it's just impossible. And they're the love of my life :heart:

We should have a personal forum or something:\

AAAAA I JUST LOVE THIS THREAD AND EVERYONE IN IT! :heart:

 

 

And you all probably sumed up my feelings perfectly about The Libs :nice: omg they're probably the best thing EVER! They've taken over Oasis' place in my music list, and that's a HUGE deal believe me! They were the ones that worried my parents when I was younger (I realised today I'm getting OOOOOOOOLD :\), and now they are slowly fading somehow (mind you, the love's always there to stay).

 

 

Ermm Tea it's a bit late but I do want to post some photos as well! Any excuse for a picspam is great to me :sneaky:

 

Awesomeness Dani gave us this one:

igaj4-1.jpg

 

And I'll try and chose only one Libs:

LibsUnionJack2.jpg

 

I couldn't, so:

And a Carl, for the sake of love:

iiiiiii.jpg

 

 

:sick: That was harder than I thought it'd be! Damn you Tea!

AMEN AMEN AMEN to everything you said hun. Really. :nice:

 

I feel the same way....I feel silly sometimes posting on a Coldplay forum these days :\

 

And yeah, I was also with Coldplay by a thread, but yanno, i'm actually GLAD i met Chris and he was like he was, because it's a total closure for me now. I think I needed it to happen, just to get that last bit out of my system, if it makes sense? :thinking:

 

"Their music has a blood and guts to it. It's like they took their hearts out and beat them into the studio recording room's floor. You can just feel the music, deep deep down."

 

= quote of the century. :bigcry: SO TRUE. :heart:

oh yeah and

 

 

7. Actually, the other day my english teacher (who is hysterical! i love him! he's the coolest guy ever! he was a total draft dodger and hippie back in the day, and now he's all tripped out and insane, it's brilliant!! plus he loves the same music as me, now) was slagging off Coldplay, saying they're basically rubbish and all that. I mean...... something scary happened. All my friends were yelling, then they turned to me and they're like "C'mon Danielle, let him have it!"

 

 

and I just said...

 

"No. He's got a point. I agree."

 

cuz he was like "seriously, the lyrics to Yellow? What the fuck?" (yeah he swears too! LMFAO)

 

and... I didn't fight. :\ That was a fucking eye opener to me, I was kind of scared. Like it wasn't that I didn't have any fight in me, I just.... didn't feel a need to defend them cuz the point he was making was totally valid....

 

I guess now... the Libertines are the best music I've ever discovered. They have their shit, they come with baggage, but it's like life... you're never going to meet the perfect person. They're always going to come with "something". Something you'll either have to look over, or something you'll have to accept and see the greater good. They're not polished or perfect or sent out into the world in a air tight container for us all to listen to and smile at and sway to. They're a fucking way of life, and it's become that way for me. When I first got into them people would say "but dude, WHY? Pete's gross! I can't believe it!"

 

And I just would say "this is some of the best music I have ever found. It's amazing. I can't deny that anymore."

 

and little do they know, Peter's probably a better man to his fans and friends than Chris Martin is. Honestly though.... :\ He may not be consistant with appearances, but he is consistant with being kindly to those who deserve kindness.

 

and that's enough from me at the moment. ;) cheers for listening I feel better now!

:sick: That was harder than I thought it'd be! Damn you Tea!

 

 

Sorry about that but cheers! :kiss:

Ok sorry to quote you again Dani :laugh3: but

 

YES YES YES.

 

 

I need to quote that shit somewhere. WOW.

I think it's impossible for me to say that I'd ever hate Coldplay. No, I never would. I truly do respect them as artists, I respect their fans, and I still consider myself to be one.

 

 

I've grown up.

 

 

That's all.

 

I'm an adult now, and I feel as though... that music is connected to my childhood. Albeit only a year ago I didn't feel this way ;) But... I've also changed. I discovered Coldplay when I was 12 going on 13. I was into them from the begining, since 2001 basically. But... their music is the soundtrack to some very dark parts of my life. I don't know, but I can't fake it anymore. I just have to say that I don't strongly like them. :\

 

I'm just a different person. I know who I am, I know where I'm going, I know where I've been, and the Libertines are the now and the future, for me. Coldplay is, sadly, the "then."

 

Sorry, but this is really my moment of clarity that I've been building on for the past hour ;) I've just got to get it out, get this "reckoning" out of my system. I firmly believe that the reason I love the Libertines and not so much Coldplay anymore is because I've grown up. This is music I want to take with me to NYC, if you know what I mean :laugh4: ;)

Aa I'm tempted to quote all that somewhere as well, or paste the address to this page somewhere and send it out to EVERYONE that has ever questioned what them/bands/music mean to me. END OF. :heart:

hahaha.

 

 

 

Maybe I'll put it in my sig. But that's fucking weird, quoting myself. :laugh4: :thinking: wtf! LMFAO

 

 

but seriously, it's the damn truth. I feel sorry for those who don't respect us for it.

Awwww Andy :nice:

 

Dani, I totally get you. Especially about Coldplay being linked with a 'dark place' in your life. It's the same for me. I mean, I was at a reeeeally low place in my head when I really started to go nuts for them, and at that time they were like a lifeline and their music really did keep me going most days.

 

But that was a different me. I'm so much happier in my mind these days, and the Libs are the soundtrack to this, much happier, me.

 

These are MY good old days.

I think it's impossible for me to say that I'd ever hate Coldplay. No, I never would. I truly do respect them as artists, I respect their fans, and I still consider myself to be one.

 

I couldn't agree any more with this. For me it's been like that recently as well, cause I still like them and all that, but it's not as huge as it used to be once upon a time. We somehow grew apart and got lost in the way. It took lots of anger from me though, the moment I found out they were playing the smallest theatre in my city (hah nto really, but yeah) and the shows were sold out. I found it disrespectful to fans in a way, cause they knew most of the people would be let out, both because of the capacity of the place and the prices. It was as if they were saying 'fuck you, we are not going to play a bigger place even if it's the only fucking time we're going to play that country'. Without the swearing of course (:evil:). And then I realised, the bands I truly love would never do something like that to their fans. Ramble ramble, but you can guess the point. We grew apart.

I think what broke me is when I saw the people who sat around me at the show, who went to the front, and realized..... not to be arrogant, again, but... I've loved this band for 5 years of my life. 5 years! I know every song, every bside, every MEMBER. Everything. And this is all I get? thousands of feet from the stage? While those assholes just feel "cool" to "see" chris Martin?

 

 

I firmly FIRMLY believe in GA seating, no matter what. Even for big bands. Like U2, I mean they're MASSIVE and they still have about 250-300 tickets reserved for their fans to have GA and get the best place in the entire house, front row or around the elipse. I'm sorry but things like that, it just..... I don't know what happened to Coldplay but their second time around on tour... it let me down. The show didn't really let me down perse (although I did get bitched out by security for taking pictures, un-fuckin-believable) but.....

 

I dunno. I just think the music has been surpassed by something. They're still nice to listen to, but I don't keep it on for long. I don't listen to any of the albums all the way through, and I realize now that I never really did before.

 

 

I'm just so glad I love bands now that let me love them, and embrace that....

 

lmfao I'm so deep right now!

lmfao my sig. I had to. I feel better now. That is me, that's how I feel. The end.

 

 

ah alright I gotta go shower now ;)

*walks into convo*:uhoh:

 

Yeah, erm I still think Coldplay is my number one band, but the fact that the bigger they get the more detached they get towards their fans. I dunno if its their managment, whatever it is, that sense of closeness and intimacy that I felt on the older albums is quiclky fading. Before it was like you could relate to everything that they said and did, every interview it was like OMG they are awsome. People could photograph with them, have a chat, they are human beings after all. But now, god, only the select few can get that close, and its not even that worth it :huh: (and I dont only mean what happened to you, Steph and Kara. I was nice and all, but not great. That's why I doubt I'll want to meet him...I dont want to disappointed :bigcry:)

 

Hell, I dont listen to music because Im friends with the members or anything but fuck they arent THAT different than any other person. You expect it from some bands like Oasis to be one of those arrogant bands and accept it anyway because they ARE and have always been unapproachable, but Coldplay? :o

 

I mean I see the way it is with other bands, maybe that's why I like indie, the artists arent like some weird deity. There's that closeness issue, they are approachable. I see how Steph has met lots of members, and it might be due to the location too, but Im not sure if you can have a chat and take pics and all with Coldplay.

I felt kind of the same when I went to my shows. I loved them, I truly did, but I really would have loved to be up front. Not lots of people who barely knew them or a bunch or rich kids and their parents, or worse some drunken couple who think Politik is romatic :wreck:, yanno?

Dont even get me started on the DVD? How cruel and insensitive is that? No apology, no anything. There was a set date for its release :bigcry:

 

[/ends Coldplay rant]

I get you, Red. Totally and completely. The DVD shit pisses me off, too. It's just fucking.... I don't know.

 

 

Yanno, Peter might let us down sometimes but.... it's different. Because then he goes and plays 10 gigs 10 nights in a row to 100 people, and does a solo acoustic show. He might not have to say "I'm sorry", but that's a good enough apology, and "kiss and make up" for me. Maybe it's to do with the lack of a management, but I truly don't think so. I put more faith in the actual person.

And maybe it's because of this need to put faith in the PERSON that Coldplay's been bothering me lately. I just...........

 

I don't really know. I think it's pretty obvious that I'm annoyed with Coldplay fans too lately :laugh4: Like they look at "us" (using this term lightly) as "dirty" and all that, but the person they deem a demi-god may not be who they think he is. But we all know (oh, wait, sorry, excuse me for bringing my "bullshit" back into this :rolleyes: ) that someone like Carl isn't like that.....

 

ah well... that's my $340.85 :laugh4:
