TraceOddity Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 *takes deep breath and clenched jaw* Coldplay Can't, Won't and Shouldn't play every song in the catalogue. they will never please everyone, and god knows they really try.This isn't an easy job at ANY level and not every band is the Grateful Dead who used to do 3 and 4 hour shows. And when people complain who weren't even AT the gig in question, it really doesn't matter since it's the fans who were there who the band play for. There's no point wasting the energy to get 'angry' at a band...any band, for not being able to please each and every fan. Rant over *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James. Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Oh come on. The setlist is almost the same as it was last year. They've only changed some songs, but it feels like the same show. The differences are PoC, DLIBYH and Warning Sign. I am very disappointed. They have to make the setlist much longer, play more than 25 songs. I'm a bit angry now, so they better make a longer and different setlist when they come to The Hague this year! More than 25 songs would be a bit of a stretch I think. U2 are a band that have been around for three times as long as Coldplay, and their longest concerts have been 25/26 songs. I think anything between 20-24 songs would be fine for Coldplay at this stage in their career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I just wish we could stop rehashing the set list arguements that have been ongoing since 2005. Would it be nice if the band played more/longer? Absolutely. However, why people just can't grasp that that's not something this band will likely EVER do is beyond me.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, at this point I don't think people are entitled to act surprised/shocked that a Coldplay show follows the pattern of all Coldplay shows for the last decade.

Prospector Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Performing PoC with a Rihanna playback is ridiculous but the video on the screen seems a preview for the actual video, and I liked it [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-1FnI06Tfg]Coldplay - Princess of China (Live) - YouTube[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getithom Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Did anybody record Don't Let It Break Your Heart live? Apparently no one has yet. I would like to guess that some of the reason it might not be uploaded yet is because a lot of casual fans were probably recording. If that's the case, then some might not realize how rare it was for Warning Sign and DLIBYH to be played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rant over *sigh* agreed. and it makes me laugh when people continuously complain about the lack of setlist changes, then once the setlist is changed they immediately either continue to complain about the songs that still aren't being played, or complain that they want the other songs (i.e. Politik) back. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieProspekt Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Think I'm ok with Rihanna on a video screen, not sure how I feel about the drums being a back track. And with the song already being so techno it kinda seems like karaoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
