June 17, 200817 yr My dream setlist Square One Politik 42 Yellow Viva La Vida The Scientist Violet Hill Rush of Blood to the Head Yes/Chinese Sleep Chant In my Place Encore Amsterdam A Message Life is for Living
June 17, 200817 yr 16songs is ridiculous, I love coldplay but i just dont think i can justify $200 for two tix to see them in Houston for alittle over an hour. Maybe Ill change my mind if the setlist expands to actual Headline band levels of 24-26songs.
June 17, 200817 yr Is there a confirmed setlist? I hope they will play old hits especially "The Scientist" and "Fix you" What do you think, will they play "The Scientist"? Viva la Vida has a term of about 45 minutes and the shows are going to be 90 minutes, right? that means, that they will play 45 minutes old tracks? is this argumentation right? I'm from Switzerland and I will go to the Coldplay show in Zürich. I've payed 300 swiss francs for two tickets. ( 147 British Pounds, 185 Euro, 287 Dollar)
June 17, 200817 yr Looks like it may vary in and out of something like this: Life In Technicolor Violet Hill Clocks In My Place Lovers In Japan Chinese Sleep Chant God Put A Smile Upon My Face 42 Yes / Chinese Sleep Chant Square One - ? Trouble Lost Strawberry Swing Yellow (Acoustic) If Death Will Conquer Me (Acoustic) Politik - ? Viva La Vida Mish-mashing setlists from latest live shows What do you think...?
June 18, 200817 yr mine is : politik violet hill lost! Warning sign shiver square one scientist clocks strawberry swing sparks speed of sound talk cemeteries of london amsterdam yellow low swallowed in the sea everythings not lost Encore: in my place lovers in japan fix you death and all his friends some songs i love, like dont panic, i left off cus i dont think itd be that great in concert.
June 18, 200817 yr I kind of hope they won't play 'Fix you' as it makes me cry every time I hear it... Also, I'm not sure about 'The Scientist', it's such a beautiful song, but my ex-boyfriend used it to break up with me... so it's a bit ruined for me, lol.
June 18, 200817 yr My dream setlist: Shiver Violet Hill 42 God Put A Smile Upon Your Face Viva La Vida Don't Panic White Shadows Chinese Sleep Chant Clocks High Speed Politik Lost! A Message Strawberry Swing Encore: Cemeteries of London Fix You Death and All His Friends Anything along this lines tonight would be fantastic. But unlikely :embarassed:
June 18, 200817 yr My "dream" set list This is my list I would love to hear...of course including songs from the new album...

June 19, 200817 yr ok well im bored so im going to make up a setlist i would want to hear. 1. Life In Technicolor 2. Cemeteries of London 3. Politik 4. Violet Hill 5. Clocks 6. In My Place 7. 42 8.

Everything's Not Lost ---------------------------------- 20. Shiver 21. Lovers in Japan 22. Death and All His Friends
June 19, 200817 yr I would love it if they played "Things I Dont Understand" which is highly unlikely. I cant wait to hear "Death And All His Friends" live. BTW, on the official Coldplay site, Chris Martin said they were 90% done with the setlists for the upcoming tour. He also stated that the setlists will differ with the locations of the concerts. I honestly can't wait to see them at BankAtlantic Center in Ft. Lauderdale!!!! November 9th cant come soon enough!
June 21, 200817 yr I echo many of you guys and what you'd like to have played....the new stuff as well as the classics. However, my WOW! moment would come if they sang Moses again!!! Pick me up off the floor and bring me a stiff drink.....I would die to hear it live!! It's one of my all-time favorite songs of theirs!!!
June 23, 200817 yr My hope for the tour They debut some new songs. obviously not right away, but if they continue touring into '09 i would like to see at least 1 new track. never understood why they havent done this more. the last tour they debuted new songs on (other than promoting a new album) was in 2001. every band does it, and i know coldplay isnt every band, but i always love to have an update of what they are changing the sound to. just a thought :)
June 24, 200817 yr Viva La Vida Tour setlist thoughts.... i know that on the twisted logic tour they pretty much played the same set every night...and i only saw them once on that so that was ok...but i plan on seeing them 5 times this year and i'm not looking forward to seeing the same set after set. dont get me wrong i'm a HUGE coldplay fanatic, but a little more diversity would be nice. Thats the beauty of going to see someone like U2, they mix things up all the time. Now coldplay does not nearly have the catalog that U2 has, but still, a mix up to keep us on the edge of our seats because we dont know whats coming next would be amazing. The set list now that they have played for about 3-4 shows in a row is great, but it definitely isn't the best they could do...i mean, politik and the scientist being left out? really? and nothing else rocks the house like the real version of yellow, not the acoustic one. anybody have any thoughts on this?
June 24, 200817 yr Author 1. life in technicolor 2. cemetaries of london 3. clocks 4. in my place 5. viva la vida 6. 42 7. shiver 8. lost! 9. GPASUYF 10. daylight 11. spies acoustic set 12. kingdom come 13. yellow (mandolin version that we've been getting) 14. Death Should Never Conquer end acoustic set 15. politik 16. chinese sleep chant 17. strawberry swing 18. see you soon 19. amsterdam encore 20. violet hill 21. the scientist 22. death and all his friends (the escapist)
June 24, 200817 yr i think it's cool that they played that new acoustic version of yellow but now that it's out there.... i think they should stop playing it. they NEED to play the real, rock version at a concert. it's one of the highlights and one of the most energy filled moments of their concerts... i don't get why they had to change it. the acoustic version is nice to listen to on my itunes but seriously... who wants to just stand and chill at a concert while they play an acoustic version of that when they COULD be dancing and going wild to the real version?
June 25, 200817 yr Author no, i think what's great about concerts is you get to mix things up, and hear them differntly than you're used to. yeah its upbeat, but a great acoustic could be the highlight of a show. and i think this yellow may be that
June 25, 200817 yr yea im all for a good acoustic song at a concert. if they played see you soon i would abolutely die. all i'm saying is that in this case... i don't think they need change because the version of yellow that everyone is used to is perfect for a concert. just my opinion.
June 25, 200817 yr Author i did love it live. but i also loved the brixton recording... i'll let you no again when i see it
June 25, 200817 yr VIOLET HILL LOVERS IN JAPAN VIVA LA VIDA CHINESE SLEEP CHANT WHAT IF 42 YES CLOCKS SEE YOU SOON -- A LITLLE PAUSE -- (bring on the magic balls) LIFE IN TECHNICOLOR DEATH AND ALL HIS FRIENDS TROUBLE LOST! CEMETERIES FIX YOU --LONG PAUSE FOR EFFECT-- SPEED OF SOUND YELLOW (NEW ACCOUSTIC) STRAWBERRY SWING AMSTERDAM I tweaked a previous post to my ultimate liking for this show. I know its too long for them and would never happen. But hey its a dream. EDIT: I like winigwl's set too with the accoustic break! Ill take either.
June 25, 200817 yr Dream set: 01. LIFE IN TECHNICOLOR (Video interlude. The band shouldn't even be shown.) 02. VIOLET HILL (The big reveal of the band comes when the guitar comes in.) 03. WHITE SHADOWS 04. GOD PUT A SMILE UPON YOUR FACE 05. YES 06. CEMETERIES OF LONDON (Chris takes the piano at the end of the song.) 07. THE SCIENTIST 08. SPEED OF SOUND 09. EVERYTHING'S NOT LOST 10. 42 (Chris gets up from the piano at the end of the song.) 11. CHINESE SLEEP CHANT 12. TALK 13. STRAWBERRY SWING 14. LOST! 15. IN MY PLACE (Chris takes the piano after the song.) 16. TROUBLE 17. CLOCKS 18. DEATH AND ALL HIS FRIENDS [ENCORE 1] 19. POLITIK 20. VIVA LA VIDA 21. FIX YOU [ENCORE 2] 22. YELLOW 23. LOVERS IN JAPAN This would work really well because all the "piano tunes" are stuck together, so Chris won't constantly be going up and down. He just has to sit down to do the end of "CEMETERIES..." and stay there through "42." Then he can take the guitar/dance through "IN MY PLACE" and take the piano for the remainder of the show. Let's be honest, "DEATH..." would be an amazing closer! There definately needs to be two encores as well. And since "VIVA LA VIDA" is such a big track, it shouldn't be stuck in the middle of the set, it should be in the encores. Naturally "POLITIK" is an opener and "FIX YOU" is a closer, so they can open and close (respectively) the first encore. The second encore doesn't need a grand entrance or anything. They can just walk on and do their thing. "YELLOW" would be such a welcomed song towards the end of the show, and of course closing with "LOVERS IN JAPAN" is genious. Do I have too much time on my hands? Absolutely. But at least it's being spent on Coldplay!!! Dave
