Coldplay for the London Olympics 2012

Featured Replies

I hope the boys are involved in the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony. It's supposed to be the green Olympics and that is a cause that Chris and the lads are actively involved in so they'd be ideal ambassadors as well.

 

Please Chris, get involved! Your country needs you! (and I for one don't want to see the Spice Girls involved in our opening ceremony - a horrific thought :o, and likely given David Beckham is on the Olympic Committee!)

 

Let the campaign now for a Coldplay involvement commence!

If they are still around in 2012 and not off promoting their new album on a 50 date tour of America largely ignoring the UK

Somehow I think McFly and Scouting For Girls are going to be the musical pin-up boys for 2012.

Again assuming that McFly and Scouting for Girls are still around ;)

 

Bands like Scouting for girls only have a limited shelf life

did u watch the closing....how crap was the gb thing specifically leonas bit...you could hardly hear anything......i think coldplay should deffo be in the opening of 2012....they have been the most successful British band since radiohead....it will be disappointing if they got snubbed and they had bands like mcfly and the feeling there

Yeah I forgot that. Well hopefully they won't be... maybe S Club 7 will reform!

Please please no! Does anyone here know Chris? Should someone approach the band about it first (no point starting a petition if Chris doesn't want to do it).

Even worse was the concert following on from the Olympics..

How did that little parade focus on modern London life?

 

There wasn't a stabbing for one, nor single-mums getting knocked up by strangers to claim benefits after benefits ;)

And why did the little girl have to walk on people's backs to get back to the bus... couldn't she have just walked back to the bus normally after her chat with the lollipop lady?

I have to say that would be completely awesome.

 

It would pretty much guarantee me wanting to get a ticket for the opening ceremony, but i have a feeling the chances of getting in are slim.

 

By the way, did anyone else hear Reign of Love being played during some of the montages last week? I was in tunisia at the time and watching the Olympics on a french channel so I'm not sure if it was shown everywhere. But it was a nice surprise :nice:

Well if it was like the pass-over parade, there will be quite a few large TV screens around the country. Chances at getting to the main stadium are slim, but there will be a large tv near you

I want to go there :bigcry: I should start saving money right now :bigcry:

OMG in 2012 if we keep posting... we'll have like a million posts :laugh3:

That offer of camping in my garden is still open Lore ;)

noooo I won't :bigcry:... ok, maybe I'll do it, who knows.. I'll be so old, I'll be 25 :bigcry:

yayyy I learned to use multi quote (Thanks Rollee)

 

 

 

and back to the topic, I can't think in a better band to play at the ceremony... let's hope they keep making music for at least 4 years more

I'll be in England for the 2012 olympics. If coldplay was there it would be so amazing!

ROTFL I just posted the same idea in the beijing thread without seeing this one.

I want to see Coldplay there....

Lore, I should start saving money right now too! :P

me tooooo! :dance:

 

and coldplay doing the opening/closing ceremonies would be absolultey perfect. but i would expect someone like paul mccartney to be a more likely choice. or eric clapton or someone, but i think it's more likely that paul would do it. which is fiiiiine with me! :D

I was just thinking about that... David Beckham??? Please people!!!!!

 

 

We want COLDPLAY...
