I'm missing the live updates and it makes me sad :( I still have 2 more months til my first concert of this tour, which makes me more sad :cry:

 

So I declare this thread a reminscences thread. For those of you who have been on tour in 2008, I want to know your best bits, see your most favourite photo, or your favourite video. Just to keep me going until Ottawa pops up :D

The third leg's about to start, and we've still had not a single 'proper' gig yet in the UK - it's absolutely rotten. I was lucky enough to get to Brixton and the BBC - I can't imagine how you other guys are feeling four months in - Coldplay anorexia I should think :(

 

The band surely owe us UKers big time next year (along with Oz, Asia, South America, Africa (and Europe?)) :embarassed:

I too have not yet seen them live. So I shall contribute my favourite pics and vids. I love all the butterfly pictures (one of which I have as my wallpaper) but Lore already posted a brilliant one so I shall post these pictures:

 

This one because it looks like they're having so much fun :D

And also this one:

My favourite video are usually those taken during The Scientist and/or DWNC, it's great to see them in the crowd and just having a sing song together, here's a great one:

And then finally, this video:

For obvious reasons :D

Does the Today show count? i would love to gloat and get back on my coldplay high. 17 more days, unless i win the super secret gig tix, which i allready found out where it is

I'm very excited, and its worse than waiting for Christmas!!!

I think the reason I'm finding it hard this time round is because the Live section is so organised, and we're getting such fab reviews, photos & vids.

I don't mind waiting really, we're lucky enough to have tickets for two nights this year, and I know it'll be a blast again. I've waited since 2005 so 2 months is nothing in comparison :lol:

i've seen them twice so far this tour (hartford+boston) and i'm looking forward to #3 in boston! my best memories are sitting 2 rows in front of gwyneth, getting square one and the hardest part at hartford and having the butterflies come down when i was on the floor.

 

my favorite youtube video from the tour is this one from paris:

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fF4Otx6KheE]YouTube - Coldplay Bercy 09-09-2008 "Viva la Vida"[/ame]

 

and it was really exciting when they played hunting high and low, glass of water, and the snippets of amsterdam! can't wait to see what they pull out for the third leg...

awww, sympathises with Pete...

 

I`m counting down till 16th November here.

 

Thanks Karen :kiss:

 

This band torture me so much, I'm seriously considering a marriage of convenience to a North American Coldplayer, so that we can get to gigs either side of the ocean, and enter comps for both countries too :laugh3:

I can't imagine how you guys have handled the last few years - no news for so long, then so much news but no gigs for ages. And every one of those days you've been working really hard on the site, waiting and waiting. You are truly due a great gig (gigs?) very, very soon :angel::whip: :sunny:

 

It's "arrgggghhh" for me because then there's more retards posting where they shouldn't be posting and complaining and blah blah blah

 

Please keep on topic, and quit complaining!! :D

Ian works way harder than me. I'm just a part-timer :D

 

The way the Coldplay Karma seems to work in this place, we're hopefully going to have the 2 best gigs ever!!

oh, and waiting isn't so bad. I've been to 3 Take That gigs in the meantime, one with a trip backstage :D They're great shows and almost make up for the lack of live Coldplay, and appeal to the teenager still hiding inside.

I guess the wait makes it all the more exciting when the moment DOES strike (and not long now!!) You're due some of the awesome karma some of the rest of us have had already this year, so much so I think I'll try to book tix to your gigs too - they should be spectacular! :cool:
