United Center, Chicago, IL 31st March 2006

 

Invevitably, a day with no load in following a party is going to be a slow and quiet one. This is enhanced by the fact that Richard Ashcroft isn’t well today, which means no soundcheck, and no show for him. it’s by far the most Sunday-like day of the tour. There’s plenty of afternoon naps and very little activity until finally, showtime rolls around.

 

The ‘Powers of Ten’ footage that is shown on the rears screen during The Scientist, is a journey through outer and inner space, as the camera zooms from the far ends of the universe through solar systems and planets, to the Earth, and then down to a guy lying in a park by a lake, continuing into his skin, down to the cells and moelcules in his body. The lake just happens to be Lake Michigan. As the zoom reaches an ariel view of Chicago, there’s a cheer of recognition. With the likes of Google Earth, I guess it won’t be long before a tour shows a zoom in from space to the roof of the venue each night. For tonight though, it’s special.

 

The show continues the exceedingly relaxed vibe, when a beanbag and popcorn is bourght onstage for Guy at the start of the acoustic section of the show. It’s explained that this is an early birthday present. It has been provided to allow him to enjoy the first half of ‘Til Kingdom Come’, during which he doesn’t play. He sits back with a grin and a bottle of beer and proceeds to spend the majority of the song throwing popcorn at Jonny.

[use a spell check next time please!]

 

EDITED

ooh some people are sooo rude!

 

Thank you Nettie :)

:stunned: that's definitely not nice :(

oh god, the more i think about this the angrier and sadder i get..though it shouldn't be my problem.

But thank you very much Nettie! :cool:

Wow. Wtf?

 

 

What I find interesting (yes, interesting.. it's a slow day at work! :lol:) is that they didn't use a spell checker themselves, because there's still words that are typoed.

 

Thanks for taking the time, Nets :kiss:

That's what I'm saying! I typed it by hand. Yeah, I didn' t use spellcheck, but to take someone without giving any props and be so fucking facety about it really gets my goat.

 

I cannot stand INGRATITUDE..........:veryangry2::veryangry2::veryangry2:

No wonder you're pissed off!!! :angry: That's so rude! Grrr...

Erm, who posted this onto Coldplaying? Was it Ian, or someone else?

 

 

If so, it might have been a bit more appropriate to email someone and address your concerns in that manner. That way we could avoid any possible drama with the mods with this thread....

Doesn't work...

according to the post it was "posted on April 7, 2006 at 0105am by busybeeburns". Can anyone else post under Ian's name?

I don't find it that rude, but then again I'm just weird. :laugh3: But it's not something to be pissed off over, in my opinion.

haha, ok that's funny :thinking:

:huh:

hhhmm very odd. its kinda just impolite. but we like your work nettie!

I doubt very much it was Ian! As someone who runs a website himself he knows how annoying it is when someone doesn't give credit!

 

What's more likely to have happened is someone else has taken it off your site and submitted it as news to Coldplaying.com and not given you credit. Ian wouldn't have known where it came from.

 

Additionally, let us not forget that Ian lets you blatently advertise your Coldplay site on his Coldplay site....which he doesn't have to do. And that even though you typed it up, it's not actually your article.

 

I agree whoever it was, was quite rude, but I don't think it was Ian ;)

Well if it was not Ian,then it must have been his wife or stephen hahaha.

Not if someone else sumitted it. Members can submit news you see :idea2:
