i was wondering if paul mccartney or ringo starr if they are fans of coldply or not?Does anyone know?

my god, i hope they are. im first and foremost a beatle freak, and if they were coldplay fans, i would die happy.

i know chris has met paul from live 8 last summer...they were both there.

I'm a huge Beatles fan and I know that Paul has stated in interviews that he has some Coldplay on his ipod. :) I've never heard anything from Ringo concerning Coldplay tho. And yep, Paul and Chris met at Live8:

 

 

Chris looks pretty excited! Everytime I watch the backstage stuff from Live 8 London, it kills me. I don't know about everyone else, but to have been back stage with the likes of Paul, Coldplay, U2, The Who, Pink Floyd, etc...I would have died! :stunned: :D

^thanks for that picture!!! my two favorite musicians IN THE SAME PHOTO??? oh my god.

ooh, paul has coldplay on his ipod? paul has an ipod!? yay!

does chris have an ipod? when he was asked he said he carries around a gramaphone, so is that a yes?

oh cool thnx im a huge beatles fan i kinda see ressemblance between the beatles and coldplay alot thnx for posting the pic

Chris was on 99x doing a coldplay take-over and he played a couple Beatles songs.

yeah, they play "tomorrow never knows" over ther PA right before they go onstage at concerts, and "goodnight" at the end. they talk about the beatles a lot, so they seem to be pretty big fans. and in this photo, which i believe to be one of their early apartments, they have a beatles poster on the wall (which i also have on my wall! its one of the most beautiful shots ive ever seen)

 

i love how my favorite band loves my other favorite band :heart:

cool picture

anyone have the article where paul says he has some coldplay on his ipod?and can someone post that picture of the beatles thats in the appartment of coldplay its cool thnx

ohh shiiiit. i have that saaame picture ! WOOOOH

Great pic . The time is going so soon...

oh my god, do you know what i just noticed about that photo i posted earlier? the photo on the wall next to the beatles poster is also a beatles picture!!! i mean, you cant really tell, but being the beatlefreak i am, i recognized it. its a really really early beatles photo of george harrison and his first car, a ford angalia (sp?). holy muffins, ive never noticed it before and ive seen that pic a thousand times!

now im thinking its maybe not their apartment...who knows though?

That's an amazing pic of the guys right there. They all look so different!!! Wow.

Ringo said in a 2005 interview for the Chicago Sun Times "That the only current music he listens to is Oasis and Coldplay."

Are u serious??ringo said that?thats so cool do u have the interview?

oh my god' date=' do you know what i just noticed about that photo i posted earlier? the photo on the wall next to the beatles poster is [i']also[/i] a beatles picture!!! i mean, you cant really tell, but being the beatlefreak i am, i recognized it. its a really really early beatles photo of george harrison and his first car, a ford angalia (sp?). holy muffins, ive never noticed it before and ive seen that pic a thousand times!

now im thinking its maybe not their apartment...who knows though?

 

Ok, wow! I don't think I'm seeing things, cause that looks like John in the last pic on the wall. I really think it might be this pic from 1968...

 

 

Totally awesome if it is! :D See...I knew there was a reason I fell in love with Coldplay so fast...they love awesome music and they make incredible music too! Thanks for noticing that middle pic, Awhisper! If you hadn't brought that up I never would have paid attn to any of the other pictures.

This whole thread just put a huge smile on my face!! I'm also a BeatleFreak...I'm planning to visit Abbey Road when I go to England this week. Thanks for just a plain cool thread!

muffins, you're right! i was trying to figure out what that was like CRAZY, but just couldnt do it, and thats definitely it. good eye to you too! thanks for figuring that one out.

however, now i have my doubts about that being one of their apartments. i mean, it still could be, but something tells me its the home of someone actually connected to the beatles. perhaps george martin? we all know he's worked with coldplay, namely in the nappies video! while its still an awesome picture, it kinda disappoints me because i was hoping it was a photo of one of their early apartments. im weird like that. (then again, it could be).

 

i love that photo of paul and john like no other. while their relationship certainly wasnt on the open, physical level that jonny and chris's is, i do think there was a strong sense of brotherhood and comradeship there, however much they hated to admit it. i think the strong relationship between jonny and chris is one of the things that first attracted me to coldplay as people: because they reminded me so much of my other favorite musicians in that sense.

 

this has become my new favorite thread :D

sorry for the double post, but if youre going to england and get a chance to go up to liverpool, i highly recommend the beatles story museum on albert dock. its amazing! i credit it as the final thing that got me beatle-obsessed. i went three years ago when i was 13, and i think it changed my life :bucktooth:. i never got a chace to go to abbey road or other beatle-related places in london, though. :embarassed:

I took a trip to England in May with my two best friends, it was amazing, literally a dream come true! :D We had limited time in London, as most of our trip was spent in Liverpool, but we did get to see Abbey Road & Paul's house on Cavendish Ave, which is pretty much just around the corner from the stuidos. Liverpool was absolutely AMAZING! Saw The Cavern, The Beatles Story, took the Magical Mystery Tour, and (this was my favorite part of the entire trip) took the National Trust tour of John & Paul's homes. It was incredible. My only problem now is, I miss it all the time and I really want to go back someday.

I'm staying just outside Manchester for the first and third week, so I plan to visit Liverpool.

 

I'm wondering if that early Coldlaly photo might have been taken at a studio they worked at??? It kind of has that studio look with the pictures on the walls. Than again, if it were George Martin's house, that would be so cool!! I adore him!

^very good guess about the studio! youre probably right. i still wish it was one of their flats, though.
