Vid taken from Angie, 'cause mine doesn't show the mess up :dozey: But here's Will pissed off at Chris during DWNC in Houston

 

:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

 

I swear Johnny and Guy saw it coming :laugh3:

I've been watching this video over and over again.

 

 

I love how the drums become muted and they have to stop the whole song.

And I love how Will continues drumming even when he's not suppose to during the bridge and which leads to a whole different version of In My Place.

 

It's just awesome seeing how the band deals with huge mistakes like this.

Are there any more videos of Coldplay messing up horribly live?

:\ oh gosh, I feel so sorry for them to deal with such mistakes....it's difficult to be all settle down in live, but they have huge experience with this song played dozens of times, I wonder what happened, and really if Chris after the end of the show did mess up with Will...

Chris realizes he need's a haircut @ 3:03

"Even the hairdressers are on strike on toronto!"

But they recover so well from it, that's fantastic! Their shows are superb, transcending, and truly an experience for all to treasure!

Man, the majority of the time Chris plays GPASUYF, he fucks up :laugh3:

jij hebt die hele mooie ellebogen, hele mooie ellebogen, hele mooie ellbogen

jij hebt die hele mooie ellebogen ik hou van jouw klomp klomp.

 

translation:

you have those beautifull elbows, beautifull elbows, beautifull elbows

you have those beautifull elbows I love your (I don't want to know what he means with klomp :P)[/color]

 

I think they mean wooden shoe with klomp. One of the dutch ´famous´ things.

And all the vids are damn awesome =D

Around 1:55.

I think he was gonna do a Pinkpop shoutout here :\

Hahahaha, oh man, this thread is the best! Love watching these! :D

haha, such an amazing thread. I never would have seen these different mistakes if it weren't for this thread :) I love it when they mess up just because it really shows their personality but what's even better is the way they recover from each mistake.

 

Here's one of my favourites and i don't think it's been posted yet :) [ame=

Mistake @ 0:35

and hilarious lyrics at 1:45 - "When there's lyrics to old songs that you don't know, when you embarrass yourself at MSG, well it doesn't matter one bit everyone got in for free"

Just found this one.

2:15 - 2:35. Chris changes the lyrics but then gets confused or something, I don't know how, and gets lost during the chorus and Jonny comes over and helps him :D.

I don't think I've ever seen a Coldplay gig without at least one fuck-up. Usually, they're quite funny and don't really harm the flow of the concert.

 

One exception was Amsterdam at the secret gig in Amsterdam in 2005. Chris just didn't manage to get it right and stopped playing it after a couple of tries.

Just found this one.

2:15 - 2:35. Chris changes the lyrics but then gets confused or something, I don't know how, and gets lost during the chorus and Jonny comes over and helps him :D.

 

 

That's really nice! :lol:

He ususally has a great timing but I guess 'night' got him confused :laugh3:

 

Love this thread. Let's keep it alive!

It's not a big fuck up but around 1:25 Chris fucks up a word in the lyrics. It was the first time they performed this version of the song I think (my favourite version of one of my favourite songs) and Chris was probably confused because the instrumentals in the beginning are different (like the chorus) from the original version and he thought for a split second that he had to sing the second verse already. Had to be "I awake to find no peace of mind" and not yet " I awake to see that no one is free".
