I want to get a tradition started

[heelsrule1988]

So ever since I first heard Charlie Brown, I've noticed how you just have to jump around during the main riff. Well, I've done the Cha Cha Slide many times (since I can't dance, it's like the only dance I can do since you're given all the instructions :lol:), and I thought it would be awesome to do the Charlie Brown dance in that song during the main riff in Coldplay's song. It's not hard... there's nothing to it at all. I'm totally doing it at the concert, and I think it would be the coolest thing ever if I could start that up as a tradition amongst us Coldplayers. Who knows... maybe it would spread to people who aren't on this site! So who's with me? :D

 

In case you don't know, here's how you do it (go to 4:35):

EPIC, all i gotta say. It would kinda be like a gang sign, you don't know anyone, but you see them doing the slide and your like...coldplaying, This guys cool

[heelsrule1988]

That's another aspect of it... I didn't even think about that. Easy way to spot someone from our fine community. Let's do it, everyone!

 

P.S. I didn't put this in the Charlie Brown subforum because I was afraid not enough people would see it. I'm serious... I really want to get this thing going at concerts. Can you imagine Chris noticing it?

[Blue Nails]

Bump. I think this is a GREAT idea. It's kind of like a flash mob, it would be awesome to do something like that. Has Coldplay ever gotten a flash mob?

[heelsrule1988]

When this gets big, just remember who started it all. :P

[RiotFever]

I think that if we do this a tradition it will become a pop song

[heelsrule1988]

How? That doesn't make sense.

[TraceOddity]

I'm in! :)

[heelsrule1988]

I hope there's a lot of Coldplayers at the next concert... I'd love to see if this starts to take effect there. :D

[hadoken_zero]

I'll do it, whenever they come to Australia next, if they play this song, and if there's more coldplayers than just me there. XD

[Jedi Leo]

Great idea but goodness I don´t know if I can remember all those moves :)

[Blue Nails]

^ It's only one move from the Cha Cha Slide and it's called 'Charlie Brown'. It's at 4.35 in the vid.

So you basically put one foot forward and hop back and forth. And I think you also sort of nod your head.

That's what you mean, isn't it oh heelsrule, Founder Of The Charlie Brown Move? :cool:

 

Let's keep this thread alive. It's gonna be epic if we get a lot of people to do this. :awesome:

I'm in for this :awesome:

AH I see now :) But that would work only for Coldplayers who are not on front row, otherwise you might step on more than one foreign foot :)

[Phoebeo]

It would be kind of cool. like ''Heeey! You're from Coldplaying!'' :awesome:

[heelsrule1988]

It is indeed... thank you for the wonderful title. :)

No foot is foreign at a Coldplay concert... only fields that missionaries go in.

 

It would be kind of cool. like ''Heeey! You're from Coldplaying!'' :awesome:

That's what someone pointed out earlier in this thread... if nothing else, this could be a great way for us to recognize each other.

[Blue Nails]

Yeah it's good to recognize each other, but what if..... we could get a whole crowd to do this, like a shoutout to the band? I'm just aiming high. :lol:

And I'll keep bumping this thread until we've got the tradition started, no matter how annoying. I wanna at least try. Who's gonna help?

You mean all the boys and all the girls , all the kids dance all night with the Charlie move :) :cool:

[TraceOddity]

I hope a few people do it in Toronto Wednesday! It'll be a small crowd, so it will be easy to spot Coldplayers when it aires that night! :)

[heelsrule1988]

It'll be on TV here, so I'll be looking. I would be absolutely thrilled... you don't even know!

[ticking_clocks]

You can count me in heelsrule1988! When they come back to Texas, I'm doing it, and I hope to see others doing it as well!:D By the way.. 1988 is a good year ;)
