Hello guys, been lurking around here but never signed up till now because I decided to comment on the fans/concertgoers' behaviour at the Singapore leg of Twisted Logic 2006 (referring to this thread).

 

Obviously from thread title, I am from Singapore. Their 10th July 2006 concert was amazing (I was standing in the middle but not quite near the front) and we went absolutely crazy when Chris told us we were an amazing crowd, and we sang along to almost every single song.

 

LOVELOVELOVE for the band, they cured me of immediate World Cup withdrawal for the night and the following week, which I thought was impossible. I badly need a Coldplay "fix" (sing with me: "and I would try.... to fix you!" ASDFGHHJKL:!!!), can't wait for information on their next tour to surface.

 

 

 

Also, a little off-topic but I bought their tour T-shirt in a size way too huge for me and I am so terribly upset (even though I knew it would happen, it is a male size L afterall). Would appreciate it if anyone would point me in the direction of anyone who wants to trade or sell theirs. Otherwise, I shall wear it to sleep and that is a waste. :(

 

 

On Coldplay and MakeTradeFair, it made me think more than the shallow points and more on the pros and cons of a free market. I was previously quite for it and the Singapore government does have a few of those signed here and there. I must admit that my support for artistes (classic and modern Hollywood artistes, bands, singers...) increases by approximately 7537 times every time I know their involvement (along with knowledge) with charities and efforts to make issues known to the rest of the world through their fame, thus accessibility.

 

 

 

I hope all that random stuff above is not boring you, but I thought it would make for more interesting replies (should there be any) instead of the usual "hello, welcome" etc. ;)

omg :stunned: looks like you had an amazing time at that concert !

 

i wish i had seen them too when they were here but i missed them :angry:

I'm sorry to hear that about your T-shirt and i can't help you. Almost none of my friends likes Coldplay so they won't buy their T-shirts :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

i'm sorry but i have to say hello and welcome too :confused:

so: welcome :P

welcome! :)

hi and welcome to the site :)

ya welcome to coldplaying. enjoy the site!

Hi Ryvyan,

 

Welcome to the site! I went to the concert too and it was absolutely amazing. I was lucky to get first row for the free standing section. Sorry to hear about your t-shirt! Hope you will have fun here! :)

WELCOME RYVYAN !!!:)

Im glad you had a great time at the concert, and they got you out of the world-cup blues!!

My feelings exactly - I feel the same about artists, when they actually care deeply about issues facing all of us, and are on a human level. Few can have the impact they have. MakeTradeFair is essential if we are going to solve global injustice, poverty, disease, starvation, conflict, and overall happiness! Here in the USA, a struggle is afoot to make elections fair - our nation hasn't been very responsive to the need to reform trade, and it stems in part from corruption at the political level. So, I', playing a part, however small it may be, in trying to solve that problem. Wish us luck!!

GLAD you're onboard!!!

Hi!!! Nice to meet you. Have fun here. I see you're an Ac Milan fan (maybe only a shevchenko fan). Probably it's just the only mistake of your life :D:D:D. Alè Fc Internazionale!

Hello and welcome to the site :D

Welcome to the site! :D

Thanks for the welcome! :D

 

ergf: I really did! The sound system was possibly the best! I have also been trying to influence my colleagues to like Coldplay by blasting their songs in the office whenever I can, but they don't like English songs that much, and even if they do, they're not too impressed by British bands for some reason. Hope you'll have luck with your friends if you're trying!

 

azlina: What time did you arrive?! I read somewhere that there was someone fourth in the queue at 11.30am :O I only arrived about 5+, 6 so I was not in a very good place. We managed to squeeze ahead though, and remained in the middle where the piano did not hide Chris, which was all good.

 

horizon: I'm club-less, merely a Kaka and Shevchenko (former hugging latter) fan for purely shallow reasons. Though, not really because I think they are (were) a pretty duo. Actually I only started REALLY watching football after World Cup 2006, have been watching EPL for the longest time ever (Dad's influence) but not really noticing it until now which I thought was possibly the blindest thing I could ever have done.

 

Also, respect for Cannavaro! All the commentary of the strikers being frightened off by him standing steadfast in his position made me laugh (e.g. "____ trying to get past Cannavaro here *snorts*!")

Hi Ryvyan,

 

I was in the queue at 1030 hrs. It's worth waiting for the best concert i've ever seen! :dance: :dance: :dance:
