FixYougirl Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 This is what A just posted on coldplay.com and Facebook (and probably on Twitter) Good evening. On Friday night this week (Aug 5th), Coldplay will headline Lollapalooza festival in Chicago's Grant Park. We're very pleased to report that the show will stream live worldwide on YouTube*. The webcast can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/lollapalooza at approximately 8:30pm CT / 6:30pm PT / 2.30am UK time (click here to find out what time it is where you are). Highlights of the show will also be available afterwards. Anchorman * Apart from Germany. Sorry Germany (not our decision). Will it be the whole performance or only Coldplay ? I'd like to see also Muse that will perform too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Haha go Chicago! I understand where they're coming from, they shouldn't really be using the confetti at outside venues at all.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NumbersGirl Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Chicago also bans propane, which is used to generate sustained flames. (Aerosol-based effects can provide only short bursts of flame.) As Grega put it: "Any city that burns down tends be a little picky." :lol: Indeed... But shouldn't Chicago be banning cows instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackZ Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Smart, but I was looking forward to the confetti :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Personally, I'm done with the confetti. It was wonderful during Lovers but, in my mind, it belongs to the Viva era and has lost it's magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor_Wolfenstein Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 No Muse will not be streamed. They are not part the Whole Performance. Just go to the Lollapalooza youtube website too see who is being streamed the rest of the day/days. Also I don't have to worry about streaming since I will be there watching them perform.

TyM218 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 has anyone gone before? how early should we arrive for coldplay? Because I have side stage tickets for a band called "Foster the People" at 3 or 4. P.S. did anyone download the ipod/iphone app? The website and the app both tell me different times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
66 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Depends on how close you want to be. There will be a crowd building throughout the day, but you should have a decent view, no matter the time you head over. I'm not walking over till about 7. I have the app, says 8:30, site says 8:15? I'd go with the site time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdestPlayer Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Leaving for Chicago now! Woo Wooooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I've been in Chicago almost 24 hours now, and I was able to get some pretty good pictures of the set-up inside the park, although much of the park has since been closed to the public. I noticed quite a few wristband scans on the central bridge (like 30 of them) but I didn't check out the northern entrance, which is where I'd advise all you Coldplay fans to enter (mainly so that you don't have our lovely Muse crossover upon entrance). Saw the merch stands, which are split into lines for headliners and non-headliners. They were still unpacking so only the Eminem stuff was up when I walked by.

Screamed "CHRIS!!!" when we were at a red light next to them, Kelly got on his cell phone and we split.
