I thought he said on ITV a few months ago he had finished touring. Liar! :lol:

 

He's on his final leg of the farewell tour... :cry:

 

But then again... When I saw him last year he said that it was his last tour then. So I don't think he really can make his mind up :lol:

A friend of mine found these HQ pictures on the internet, hope it's okay for me to post them here. (Most of them are pictures we have already seen; just better quality)

So when is his "final" concert?

At the next concert at Wembley for one of my favorite bands, I won't miss to meet them again. As for a competition, next time I'll reread the conditions of it, that's what I didn't do as I entered the competition by chance just before it ended. Actually I hadn't read it at all. I might have gone to the first page to read up the conditions. It seems a lot of people out there are angry but i'm not. For me it's already an old story:D. By the way you talked to my husband near the Bakery, you remember ? You were seating behind us on the boat.

Yeah I remember you two, I could hardly understand what you were saying though.

As you didn't see me ringing, you're lying by your purposes. I can't figure out why. We haven't had any problem together so far. As i said no one will prevent me from going back to meet the band another time. Nothing has changed for me. You're only spoiling yourself this thread that doesn't deserve it. I wouldn't be amazed that there won't be such opportunity like the one we've just had in London with this website because of the fuss some people are making. It will be your own fault after all. Why are you lying ? You were happy not to wait in this cold weather. Some others have waited 1h30 for nothing.

You're lying by your purposes.

 

You're lying. By your purposes.

 

Stop lying by your purposes.

So when is his "final" concert?

 

19th December at the O2.

 

They managed to sell out two dates at the O2-- which ain't half bad.

You can't imagine how I genuinely "envy" you and whoever has been on that boat :D

Great pics. One of them is my new desktop pic!

Chapter 2 ; Viva la London

14:55 ; we arrive at London Kings and everything seems to strange from the last time I was there, 6 years ago. We rushed down to the tube station and bought 2 day passes then got onto the next tube to Elephant & Castle, we spent over an hour looking for the right bus stop which would take us to Old Kent road we finally found it and got on without paying, the bus driver didn’t bother so we just thought fine then. We rushed down the street and found our hotel which we discovered was actually nowhere near Tower bridge like the description told us ! So we checked in, and got changed in 15 minutes, rung for a taxi and set off for the Anchor Tap. However by this time it was after 4 ‘O clock and the taxi driver wasn’t really sure where it was, so he pulled up behind Butlers wharf and the guy said he didn’t want to leave us on our own so walked down the street while we were still sitting in the back of his taxi! He came back 5 minutes later and said he couldn’t see it, so he walked down to the river bank with us and asked us if we’d be alright and he set off back to his taxi, aaaw he was so worried about us it was sweet. Anyway because it was now 16:45 and people were queuing for the Erasmus we just joined them. I was so excited at this point and I looked around to try and recognise people from the forum but I didn’t know any of them at that point.

Looking forward to hear the rest of the story :)

(can't believe it either! :smug:)

 

Thanks :D; I have one of the boat as my wallpaper. I'm sure it will all sink in one day lol - such a great night, I just can't wait to see the final video :D

 

You can't imagine how I genuinely "envy" you and whoever has been on that boat :D

 

I can understand that, I think I would feel the same if I didn't go.

 

Great pics. One of them is my new desktop pic!

 

Awesome!! I wonder if it's the same one I have as my desktop pic :cool:

I'm realising that last week's boat trip is like an episode of Lost, all the details are not fully appreciated until its too late to go back! :laugh3:

^And the making of video just puts this cinematic sheen on the whole thing too...:wacky:

 

I can't help but have my heart swell when I see the shot of the boat with the balloons flying away :heart:

Then my case is not hopeless, cause I feel the same way :wacky:

Guys... I don't know if this would be the right thread for me to post this in.

But it's pretty huge.

 

So my mom is friends with a lot of security guys that work arenas in ny-nj area.

And they just said that they were told that Coldplay will be coming to the Red Bull Arena, in newark nj, around JUNE!

:freak:

I BELIEVE IT THOUGH BECAUSE HE WOULDN'T LIE TO ME.

He knows I'm a huge fan.

We should all be looking forward to a big summer tour hopefully, and an album out by this spring!!!!!

 

:dance:

 

:( Newark?? Of all places.... ??? Nothing against Jersey... but c'mon! I hope they come to the Garden... they haven't given MSG a proper show since they did the free gig before VLV dropped. :( Heck, they didn't even come back to NY! They actually did Across The Narrows Festival and another Jersey venue.... :(

^ That reminds me, I forgot about the Coldplay/Jay-Z thing in Vegas over New Years... crap... WHY did I have to change my plans,, lol! Now not only did I not get to do this but they most likely won't be in London when I'm there!!! :bigcry:

 

My coldplaying karma really, really sucks right now!

 

I'm excited about the video and song tomorrow though! First new material in ages :)

  • 3 weeks later...

Hey all,

 

Does anyone have any group pictures from the boat trip? I'm not sure what camera they were taken on but if you could direct me to them or send them to me in a message I'd be much obliged. Thanks all you good good people:)

 

 

 

 

And I'm up here holding on

To all those chandeliers of hope.
