scott.tet Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Ill tell you. I love coldplay. Just as much as anyone. But after watching some clips from their past couple free shows... im really just.. not impressed. chris's moves are just... well.... gay.... and at some points im just wishing he would be sitting infront of his piano rocking out.. instead of his gay dance moves during the climax of fix you! i think he needs to sit down and stay away from all the jumping around hes been doing.. keep it in small quantities... like last tour .. during white shadows... well i dunno... i just find myself a bit dissapointed from what iv seen.. anyone else feel this way.. or am i just expecting way too much out of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

::Hayley:: Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Chris said himself tonight... I quote "I'm not the best dancer, but I'm enthusiastic, and that's the best!" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpfan50 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 You are entitled to your opinion Scott, but perhaps you should find a less offensive way to describe the way Chris dances... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasluvsjonny Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I know a lot of gay people and they all dance way better than Chris and would be extremely offended by those comments. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Difficult_Kind Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 How depressing to see that some people think it's still ok to use the word "gay" in a derogatory sense. Dear oh dear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpfan50 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 At least he's enthusiastic! ;) Sometimes I think he can't win - he's criticized for his dancing but if he stopped and just sat at the piano I bet everyone would complain that the show was boring. I like the fact he's enjoying himself. And his ability to bend in every direction still amazes me! :laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixed Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 chris's moves are just... well.... gay.... and at some points im just wishing he would be sitting infront of his piano rocking out.. instead of his gay dance moves during the climax of fix you! ill tell u if i found out that chris was gay... ya id look at him another way... and with his moves from the brixton show.. i wouldnt doubt it Don't be silly.

StephenG Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 ill tell u if i found out that chris was gay... ya id look at him another way... and with his moves from the brixton show.. i wouldnt doubt it He thought he was gay, but seriously this is what Coldplay do. They're the kind of band who don't want to be taken seriously and they acomplish that in spades. If I have one issue with Coldplay live its how distant the other 3 feel and how Chris's voice isn't all that great. It can soar no doubt but when it does its not quite as nice as Thom Yorke, Richard Ascroft or Fran Healey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearcat1229 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 I dunno I'm a huge fan as well (probably the biggest Wisconsin USA will ever see...) but I being left hoping that there will be ALOT more visually pleasing sets when they play the big arena shows. The Twisted Logic Tour sets were amazing live and I just don't see it yet during these mini gigs.... I probably am jumping to conclusions though....I'm sure the main arena shows won't hold back in visuals at all....I just hope the setlist is a tid longer....

scott.tet Posted June 18, 2008 Author Share Posted June 18, 2008 i think it will be... its clear that their playing around with their new songs. the classics will im sure make their appearances.. i do hope that they change the set list up from time to time tho.... they really kept it basically the same thing throughout their last tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpfan50 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 The free gigs they did were much smaller venues. The one in London was only about 5,000. And because they were freebies they probably didn't go all out and use the expensive lights, lasers and backdrops. I bet when they start the big arena tours they will be a lot more to them. They have these 'magic balls' that they keep talking about which they haven't used at the free shows. Maybe they are saving the best for the proper tour - build up to the big stuff!

mountainloafers Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Chris has impressed me at times when singing live. As he learns these new songs and tours more with them I hope he improves. As for the rest of the band, I think they sound amazing! The arrangements are nearly perfect and the music sounds exciting. Perhaps Chris should consider writting more songs like Yes in the future and more lower register songs with Will singing the higher parts in backing vocals. As for Chris's dancing? Well we cant blame him for being excited and wanting to express himself... He's a lovable dork and I dont care if he wants to dance or wear funny clothes.... I would like to hear good music and sing along with the fans, gay, straight, black, white, yellow, whatever.... Open minds will prevail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
