Will wouldn't do that to me. :P If they are there at the same time and I can get a ticket to both, damn straight Angie is going! Now for a prize, guess which side I will support.

 

Boca? :D

They are not going still to my home country India even after me mentioning it in the postcards too.

I don't know when the people in my homeland will ever have that golden oppurtunity.:(

 

But what ever it is and also what ever any one says but i am not at all satisfied with the whole US tour they've done in the viva la vida tour.

I am so badly disappointed.

I feel your pain. I know exactly how you feel!!

:bigcry: :bigcry:

I think in Europe's defence we're not made up of states, we're made up of countries, so it's a lot more expensive to fly around. Also the whole continent (some of which has been left out, Portugal, Finland for example) is bigger than the USA.

 

The USA is not a continent Mich :laugh3:. North America is though and Canada is rather large, so that kinda boost the size up. :P

 

So I did some counting. Excluding all the free shows/radio shows/TV stuff

dates played/ dates scheduled / total dates

 

Japan 2 / 4 / 6

North America 35 / 14 / 49

Europe 39 / 21 / 60

Oz/NZ 0 / 13 / 13

 

So can every stop with all the "why don't they just move to America" BS now. :dozey:

I agree with Angie.

So I did some counting.

 

The number of dates for each continent in total is on wikipedia :lol: :P.

I meant USA the country versus the whole of Europe :P

Angie is so much better at speaking my thoughts than I am :P

Boca? :D

Michie wins the prize. :D

 

 

Michie wins the prize. :D

 

 

Whoooop :D

I meant USA the country versus the whole of Europe :P

We all know how the UK hates to admit they a part of Europe. :rolleyes: Refusing to use the Euros and what not. Go on say it Mich. I am part of the EU and I am proud of it. :P

I'm positive Mich knows that the US is not a continent. :rolleyes:

Fuck no, we are separated by water and have our own currency with our own Queen on it :P

 

Great Britain was once an empire and we shall be one again :P

Fuck no, we are separated by water and have our own currency with our own Queen on it :P

 

Great Britain was once an empire and we shall be one again :P

 

Great Britain or Great Britton? :D I'll vote for it:kiss:

Fuck no, we are separated by water and have our own currency with our own Queen on it :P

 

Great Britain was once an empire and we shall be one again :P

:laugh3: Ireland has accepted it, why can't you. :P

I'm positive Mich knows that the US is not a continent. :rolleyes:

 

Hehe, am stoopid but not that stoopid. :dunce:

 

I put USA because obviously the continent of America is far bigger than Europe.

 

And Great Britton, of course :D

Fuck no, we are separated by water and have our own currency with our own Queen on it :P

Hmmm..wonder what song would be the national anthem in Great Britton?:D

So you're not :dunce:, just a Canada hater. :laugh3: Isn't that part of your "Empire" Shameful. Hatin' on the yanks is one thing, but your own commonwealth. tisk tisk. :lol:

Hmmm..wonder what song would be the national anthem in Great Britton?:D

 

 

:lol: Oh God I think I would be overthrown for sure if it was a Coldplay song

:lol: Oh God I think I would be overthrown for sure if it was a Coldplay song

"I Bet That You Look Good on the Dance Floor ".....much better than that boring God Save the Queen number.

i have to say that this thread embarrasses me a bit. i think that we americans have a right to be happy and that the people in the ignored countries have a right to be quite disappointed (but also a bit hopeful for monday :wink:). i do not, however, think that we americans have any right to complain nor feel offended by any "america hating" going on. don't you think these people have a right to be upset? the tweets got everyone all worked up, thinking that this might be something EVERYONE could enjoy, and then they find out that they don't get anything out of it, nothing. they're not angry at us or our country, they're angry at the management and the way that this was hyped up to EVERYONE. however, if people that have seen them before on this tour (or even had past tour dates in their area that they may or may not have been able to go to) keep talking and whining like they are, i think they ARE going start "america hating." the tour being in america specifically isn't the issue in my eyes--if they were visiting the UK or anywhere else for the third time on a big tour leg while ignoring other very large and loyal continents, people would be similarly angry after hyping it up like they did. i don't think these coldplayers are angry about it being in AMERICA, they're angry about it being anywhere for the third time.

 

i'm american, and i'm gettng frustrated with the americans that are whining about them not being close enough to them, even though several of those people have seen them at least once this year judging by their signatures. it embarrasses me, frankly. of course, there are those americans that haven't seen them at all this year either, but put yourself in the shoes of a person from a country that hasn't seen coldplay at all this year and think about how much WORSE that must feel.

 

the biggest mistake in all this was hyping it up through twitter without being specific to area. if this had been announced without fanfare, i have a feeling that the reactions would be slightly less strong, although still disappointed. i think a lot of this is because the spirits soared so high for one night, then crashed. let them be disappointed, and realize how lucky we are.

 

and everyone should be hopeful for monday :D. i have a good feeling about south america :wink:

 

EDIT: sorry to bring up all the heavy stuff again when it had gotten all lighthearted for a while :P. but that took me a while to type, and when i started, the heavy stuff was still going on :lol:

:laugh3:

 

You may laugh now but soon you'll be singing my chosen song on the Fourth of July otherwise known as Dependence Day :D

Hehe you articulated that far better than I ever could have.

 

So I'll just +1 it and run away :D

And Chelsea...you've hit the nail on the head I think. Well said:)
