Before this thread, there were only a handful of members online. Now it's steadily crept up to 24, and is probably going higher. This place is going to explode over the next 48 hours!!!:D

It's all about the bandwidth, Baby. And according to Ian, WE GOT LOTS!:D

 

(Don't mind me...I'm just a wee tad excited right now...)

for real.

 

all those rumors and various individual encounters with the band all pointed to a free download, and they were all right.

maybe you could travel to new york for that show on the 23rd?

 

I dunno how far oregon is from new york :confused:

(double post, sorry)

Yes!

This is awesome! I cannot wait. Coldplay is really taking a new direction, and it shows in so many ways. Not only will their music be new and refreshing, but the artistic styles, the attitude (as heard in interviews, etc.) and even the band's philosophy. Free download? "Free" 7-inch vinyl? Free concerts?!! Coldplay loves their fans! :D

A NEW DAY HAS COME!

A NEW COLDPLAY ERA TOO!

WOW!

@ Tracie, hi!!!! Yup, this news will draw all users (new and old) out of the woodwork. lol

 

@ Age Six Racer - ohh, don't I wish. Unforch, I'll be in Cyprus for the rest of the summer so no chance of catching the MSG show either. :(

 

 

Coldplay just posted a new myspace blog - a reiteration of information we all know already.

Free download! Free shows! - 27.4.08

Coldplay.com to give away new single

We're very pleased to announce that Coldplay's new single, Violet Hill, will be available as a free download exclusively from Coldplay.com for one week starting tomorrow, Tuesday April 29th, at 12.15pm UK time.
