I prefer small venues. They should leave the stadium tours for Europe and do arenas...or better yet, a club tour (I can dream can't I) :thinking: :D

Since when do Coldplay do stadium tours? Where did you get this information, or is this just speculation? I don't want them to go all U2... :inquisitive:

 

Stadium tour= more money and publicity

I don't see why that's bad?

Besides, they don't have to have such a behemoth of a stage set up as U2's.

Well, they did stadium shows in August/September 2009 in Europe, didn't they?

So I don't see any reason why they wouldn't do it on this tour.

 

And listening to ETIAW I just see and hear "STADIUM" screaming throughout the whole song....

so 2014 for South America right? :laugh3:

 

And France ? :\:cry:

Well, December 13, 2011 is set for a gig at Bercy.

And summer 2012 at the Stade de France.

So France will be served quite well, I suppose....

 

:-)

They better come to Australia or I will shoot myself!

I hope they come and play the palace of auburn hills if they do hit Michigan... I hate the DTE theater, seats suck. :(

Hallenstadion Zürich, Switzerland:

...apparently sometime between December 19 and 19....

ohhhh :surprised:

 

A train trip could be in order, and if it's true Italy should be just before or after...and I'll be on holiday already :wacky:

 

I'm just scared of massive snowfalls like the past year though :uhoh:

Phil said the guys want to return to south america as soon as possible so I hope after a couple of shows in Europe they go to south America

Where did you get those dates?

Just went to check the website for Sportpaleis Belgium to see if the dates above are true.

 

And it says this for 8 dec 2011:

 

GDF Suez Diamond Games 2011

Antwerps Sportpaleis - donderdag 08-12-11 / 19:00

 

No Coldplay in their calender yet.

One date in Italy and 2198457673 in Germany, are they freaking kidding me? So much for always be at number one here, even now on iTunes with X&Y in the alternative album charts (and all the other three in the top ten)

 

I really really hope that is fake, cause I would be seriously pissed off otherwise.

 

Mediolanumforum in Milan is free on January 14th as of now, btw.

Source? :thinking:

 

Are those venues free or booked on the dates stipulated?

I hope they do more than one date in Italy. Btw if they play at the mediolanum forum I'll be there! :dance:

^ Awful venue in an awful city and in winter it's even worse :sick: I wouldn't be sad if it was torn down and rebuilt properly

 

Just saw they would have a gap between January 7th and 14th..a bit of hope is still there

07.12.2011 Lanxass Arena, Cologne, Germany

According to the venue website there is a Night of the Proms on that date?

Ian the link says Dec 17th, the date on the list is 7th :P

ahh! back on the rails!

 

I can't work most of the other venue websites, I only do English!

Source? :thinking:

 

Are those venues free or booked on the dates stipulated?

08.12.2011 Sportpaleis, Antwerpen, Belgium is already booked for another event.

 

this one 25.11.2011 Ahoy, Rotterdam, Netherlands: seems available, nothing booked for 25th. There is something planned for the 26th. Nothing else booked for 19th till the 25th, so this one seems to be a possibility.

Suez Diamond Games?

Suez Diamond Games?

Yep, it's a tennis match

I'm not buying this!

Apart from the Sportpaleis in Antwerp all the others seem to be available :uhoh:

 

edit: I'm half believing it and half not (or better don't want to)..we will of course need to wait for any official announcement

date corrected for Belgium
