DJK 118 Posted May 24, 2018 Here's a random coldplay thought... I made a video of a hike I did in TN this year and used High Speed & for the background music. I thought the music was fitting and that you might enjoy! ^.^ (plz don't confuse this with shameless self promotion, I don't expect the video to get a lot of views haha) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zlb9MHvT1os Mobile Link: https://youtu.be/Zlb9MHvT1os 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ran away 12748 Posted May 26, 2018 I always wonder if this kind of spamming actually is in any way beneficial to the spammers ? I mean, seriously. Imagine if he (probably a bot) even posts this bunch of threads to, let's say, 1000 random subject forums. How many people are gonna check their respective forum and be like 'OMG, I was looking for someone to tell me how to use black magic to solve my love problem, now I know who to call !' 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YGillot 135 Posted June 4, 2018 I could write an essay about why being in the paparazzi is the worst career on the planet. If everybody would read about celebrities/look at celebrity pictures as much as I do, that wouldn't be much of a career for those people :p Unfortunately it is a way to make money in today's world as this is how demand and supply work together 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I ran away 12748 Posted June 4, 2018 Speaking of negative stories about band members...I recently came across this bewildering one: https://www.thefreelibrary.com/STROPPY+STARS%3A+%60Coldplay+threatened+to+sue+me%27+Teacher+Jacqueline...-a0108768602 This offensive legal threat over such a trivial misunderstanding doesn't fit at all with what we know about Will's character, so I wonder what this was really about. I can only explain it by there being a history between the two parties prior to the incident. We only hear the lady's version of the story, but maybe she did keep bothering them beforehand ? I believe her story for the most part but what put me off slightly was that her first letter to Marianne by her own admission included a request for free Coldplay tickets - who would ask for that, upon first contact (and she says she isn't even a fan) ? Makes me doubt her claim a little that she was just after a teacher-to-teacher chat... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't have anything nice to say, best say nothing at all I mean, i can understand that she wanted to get back at them (the solicitors/Will). The reaction was really way too harsh and inappropriate for what she had done. I don't doubt the authenticity of the incident or the letter, the question is just if that is the whole truth. I wonder what really prompted the reaction since I can't believe that Will himself would go after a misunderstanding with such drastic measures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought this was an excuse Will made, but then he could just as well said his dad or something. Could indeed be that the rest of the story is false as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, 3 possibilities here a) it's all made up b) Jacqueline had been annoying before c) the sollicitors are assholes and Will and his wife didn't know about the letter ranked from most likely to least likely 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway ! :D I actually came here to post this wonderful video I'm just watching on Youtube. An in-depth analysis of the different musical elements in Clocks and why the sounds so amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=7_warUFthJI;t=460 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zero Theory 1175 Posted June 6, 2018 I saw Imagine Dragons this evening. It was a very good concert. The visuals and overall energy was great. 2 things as it relates to Coldplay- -The energy of the lead singer is what makes a great rock concert. If the frontman is just going through the motions, the concert comes off as very unconvincing. Dan Reynolds (the frontman) reminds me of Chris. Even though neither of them are notable dancers or musical "prodigies", they get by on emotional vocals and stage presence/energy. Not surprising since Dan says he was inspired by Coldplay (Parachutes specifically). -After seeing this concert, still nothing else compares (;)) to a Coldplay concert. It makes me appreciate everything Coldplay puts into a concert more after seeing other concerts. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

onlylove 786 Posted June 9, 2018 I'm reading Roadie by Matt McGinn (a must read for any Coldplay/ live music fan) and it was written right at the end of Viva era. Then I found this great BBC concert on YouTube that I'm sure has already been posted here. It is worth posting again. What a fantastic set list. I'd give anything to be able to go to an intimate live set like this!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
