This has probably been posted before in the last few years..but I didn't really realize that these guy were serious. In fact I thought it was just like a hobby but then I saw this picture

 

 

which to be honest, it kinda made me laugh... but then I saw that it said "Gigs" at the top of the page and at first I thought it was the Coldplay tour dates.. but no.. These guys actually get booked!:shocked2: Just take a look at the list:stunned:

• APRIL 28th, Friday - The Bull's Head, Great Sutton, Cheshire
  
• MAY 5th, Friday - The Brook, Southampton
  We're well pleased to have this gig booked. We've been wanting to play at The Brook for a while. It is a 600 capacity live music venue and because of the calibre of bands that they have, people travel from all over Hampshire, Dorset, Sussex and the Isle of Wight.

  This year is the 24th show and is held on both the 17th and 18th of June. It looks like quite a large show and everything from major kit car manufacturers' cars to three-wheeled cars, utility vehicles to two or four seater sports cars and super cars will be on show. There are camping facilities and we're there to provide entertainment in the evening. I think we might go down early in the day and have a good look around (i.e. see if we can get some free rides in Ferraris )
  
• JUNE 28th, Wednesday - Gianpula Fields, Rabat, Malta
  Back in Malta! We're delighted to be invited back, delighted to be helping out the YMCA again and delighted to be playing on the same bill as Sir Bob Geldof! The gig is part of a big festival that the YMCA are putting on and there will be numerous tribute bands playing. When we get more details we'll put them up on the site so keep your eyes peeled.

  Melksham is a picturesque village in Wiltshire, a few miles away from Bath. At last year's installment of their annual festival, a U2 tribute band played to approx. 5,000 people. This year it's our turn. We have no idea what to expect for this gig, except, hopefully, a lot of people, loads of sun and a good time.

That's a long list:stunned: Anyway, I downloaded the video they have there and for a moment I did thought Coldplay was playing. They do sound a lot like Coldplay.

 

I still find this a bit crazy but I guess it's all acceptable in the Coldplay Fan world. Here's the link

It's kinda nice though because whenever Coldplay finally takes a break we'll still have these guys to look back and to remember memories :nice:

Hmm...interesting ;)

Wow, they look and sound like Coldplay themselves!

I thought they did Trouble really well, it was only the guy that's impersonating Chris that actually looked liked Chris - the rest didn't. But the movements of Chris and performance style was pretty well done! Except only Chris can really work an all black outfit :laugh4: :P

easy easy u shut up

wow they really sound like them but i think that the guy impersonating chris tried to do his moves but it didn't look quite natural .but i still think that they did trouble very well :)

I think it's quite sweet! It says on their site they're just massive Coldplay fans. What is it they say, imitation is the best form of flattery?

how awesome :) that's pretty kickass, if i do say so myself.

I was at their site the other day. I noticed there were no London gigs. I'd have gone otherwise, just to check out their sound.

I mean, could you imagine how much it would cost to get the 'real' Coldplay to perform at a private function.

 

C'mon! :laugh4:

I'm watching the video on their page at the moment... I have to say what they're doing is quite amazing.

haha thats kinda weird

i just saw the vid ...there quite good actualy ..i kind of like trouble

well evidently' date=' they are not that big coldplay fans....they mispelled jonnys name.[/quote']

 

Well, that can happen from time to time.. Sometimes it even happens to me when I quickly name a pic or anything, that doesn't make them less Coldplay fans!

Doesn't the drummer go on this forum? :uhoh:

 

Edit: yep, he does.

I remember I was slagging off the drumming for their cover of Square One and I didn't realize I was talking to the drummer :laugh3:
