^ haha no... but regarding my earlier post, if he is still in the States and anything happens at this festival today or at a club later in the evening, I would certainly kick myself for not going.

I just uploaded the Lotus Flower video into the Coldplay.com hynofeed!

it looks like the band are going to be releasing a newspaper all around the world on monday! The title of this newspaper is The Universal Sigh :dance:

 

also there's a website that's linked that will post pictures and this site is legit because people have found the owners of the site are also owners of tbd records, as well as some radiohead remix sites!

 

so this should be exciting! :dance:

crazy

Is this going to be a part of the newspaper album thing? If so, I don't want to look at those links yet.

^

This is slightly exciting, though I probably won't be able to get a paper.

They updated the sites, it was only Greece and Poland before.

Sorry, but I'm NOT driving to Chicago.

 

Mike, there will be 3 sites in NYC that will distribute it... are you going?

:thinking: And how, pray tell, do they plan to measure the carbon footprint of the people that will drive out of their way to get one of these newspapers? Hmm?

 

 

edit: officially announced on DAS

 

Yay! I wonder what's written in it. A friend will try to get one in Brussels, the region I live in has been overlooked..

wow! Finland too!not sure if i'll drop by Stupido-shop anyway though..

You could try to :wacko:

DUDE I WILL PAY YOU MOAR

:lol:

 

well I'm definitely going to try to go... the only problem is I'm pretty sure I have work... and the thing opens at 1pm... so it's going to cut it close, but if I'm a little late whatever. Radiohead takes more priority :lol:

Did a cover of These Are My Twisted Words if you want to check it out.

keep in mind that it's really difficult to sing while playing that weird picking pattern.

Anyone else going to DC for the newspaper? Wondering which of the two locations would be best...

I'm not travelling to Sydney or Melbourne just for this.

 

Shame really, sounds like a fun day.

There's one in New Zealand. That means they know we exist!

 

...too bad it's in auckland. i will try make a friend get me one.

Yeah Im hoping somebody in Vancouver can get one for me.

Okay Yall, I am way too old and way too tired to read through this whole thread so forgive me if this is old news but,

Is anyone here aware of the gigantic conspiracy that was swirling about before the release of info on the the newspaper/http://theuniversalsigh.com thingee.

 

It involves the Twitter of Stanley Donwood and his alias Chieftan Mews.

There's an entirely insane thread on Mortigi Tempo.

 

Most of it completely squirelly and based on the fact that Stanley is following Chieftan on Twitter but it's fun if you are a rabid fan and especially if TKOL left you wanting.

 

(Finally, here's is a little note of interest that none of the Mortigi boarders know. One of Chieftan's followers is a Twitterer named Millerworld. )

 

Don't know if that lends credence to the legitimacy of Chieftan's cryptic tweets about things to come 'cuz he just may be as skeptical as the rest of us but...???

 

Anyway it's been fun to follow and again, ignore if yall have been chatting away on this subject already.

^ If Stanley Donwood = Chieftan Mews, and everybody knows it, why would it matter that Matt Miller follows him? Or is it 'interesting' because it is not actually confirmed that Stanley Donwood = Chieftan Mews?

Yup, because it's just speculation that Stanley Donwood = Chieftan.

 

(And also not that "Miller knows all" about anything music related just because he is a Coldplay Roadie. It's just interesting.)

Closest newsstand is Oslo :\

well i picked up a physical copy of the album today. just the normal edition so nothing special about it. it's a very no frills production. no booklet inside. just a few pictures here and there of course those now famous liner notes thanking "Drew Barrymore". its also cute how they thank their children :)
