TimL Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Then how come Chris was able to play some live songs for us on the radio stations? :dozey: Were they webcast live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kmm1482 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Hey, thanks! I know people get pretty het up, we had to put an awful lot of work into getting something like this to even work at all! We're not a 'massive' station or company, so doing something like this is a big effort. And there are limitations that we just have to adhere to, cos them's the breaks, that's just how "the business" is. It's a little discouraging to see people being a bit rude, but it's cool, I understand, everyone's just excited and stuff. :) I'll come back and give you all a shout when the vids are on the site, we'll be sorting them out and uploading them on Monday to absoluteradio.co.uk/coldplay. Brilliant! This just means we get a spread out Coldplay week! Now we just have to wait one more time today for Steve's show! I love Chris' Ooo-ooo-ooooooos at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 100% ok with it mate, I totally understand, and I am not :angry: at all. Initial thoughts were that it had something to do with the station but I know thats not the case after you cleared it up :D!!! Thanks for all the good work on putting the webcast up :D!!

Sorry if anyone's been rude (including me:embarassed:); like I said we all get a little bit over-excited over here....and didn't realize it'd be only 1 song. But, don't worry, we're not going to send any hate mail your way:P. And we'll all be going crazy again the second those videos become avaliable!:smiley: Thanks again for hanging around and explaining things... edit: YES Denise, saw Jen in the center of the screencap!:dance: Thanks!!!

I think everyone here thought we'd get the whole thing on the webcast today not just one song, so that's why people are a little disappointed.:) But no worries. Coldplayers are used to waiting for things. We've got plenty of other distractions to keep us busy:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyric Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Were they webcast live? No live video. But if it's due to that, couldn't they keep it going on the radio only version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, we've had much worse before, you guys aren't so bad! I'm a manic fan of several bands, I've cried on my favourite rock-star... I understand that caring for your band is quite an all-consuming thing! I figure it's better for me to come and explain stuff from our perspective so you don't think think we're just keeping Chris all to ourselves, haha. We aren't corporate baddies or flicked a switch to spite the fans, we were just allowed to live webcast the one track. Damn, wish I could go down and stalk Chris a bit...

Sometimes it's a legal issue, sometimes it's the band's preference, sometime it's the label's. I don't really know much more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayzo Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Absolute Radio is better than any other radio station out there because Tim and Ben have both been here reaching out to fans of only one band they play on their station, when they didn't have to. They could punch Chris in the face and I'd still like em'. Ok maybe not then, but until that point then yes :D :D!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookyMnstr Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Can't wait to hear a report from Jen&Ian when they get back!!!:D (at least something to tide us over until we see the rest of this little gig next week!) and yes, I think TimL with his "stalking" fits very well in here LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
