fooboto Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Someone HAS to know the answer to this. I've asked the Oracle countless times, but received no answer. Why is the current setlist for the Mylo Xylotour so short? 18-19 songs, compared to 24-25 songs of the Viva la Vida tour? Where have the mega hits, like Lovers in Japan, and Life in Technicolor ii (Grammy nominee!) gone? For the price I'm paying for the concert on April 21, I'm hoping to get my money's worth. So far, although each concert has seemed to kick some serious ass, it seems like are being somewhat ripped off. Knowing how awesome Coldplay is live, a concert would fly by in the blink of an eye. Where is the arena filler Don't Let It Break Your Heart - a song written for live performance? I really do hope that when the come to North America, they'll add some old favorites into the mix, and give the fans what they paid for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getithom Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Keep in mind, the MX tour started only one month ago. I'm fairly positive the VLV tour was also short at the beginning too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfing7861 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 When the major legs of the tour kick in, a new, longer set will be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's unfortunate for those who bought for earlier shows :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauCH Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 ^^^Is there any way we can check for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplayfan_115 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I've thought about this too. But it is true, when you look at the Viva tour. The earlier shows setlists were shorter (about 19-20 songs) while the later ones were about 25. (Welcome to Coldplaying, by the way. :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fooboto Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 ^^^Is there any way we can check for that? The two blokes were right. I checked setlist.fm, and at the beginning of the Viva La Vida tour, only 16 or so tracks were performed. http://www.setlist.fm/search?query=artist:%28Coldplay%29+tour:%28Viva+La+Vida+Tour%29&page=16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why I wasn't on here earlier, since I've been a hardcore fan since Rush of Blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fooboto Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Ooohhh I want 25! I would love to hear my favorite song (of all time) Life in Technicolor ii, and the bombastic Lovers in Japan! I would be able to walk away happy if they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getithom Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm going to a concert in June so I'd assume by then the setlist will be well-sized. I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow la Guy Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 That's unfortunate for those who bought for earlier shows :cry: The early concerts are only to show off the new album and the new songs live! To bring it to a mass of people! .. people who buy now new tickets for the upcomming shows ;) It was not the official MYLO XYLOTO Tour ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB5 Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I can't go to a concert, first of all because they aren't coming anywhere near where I live, and secondly I have very little money:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only wish for this upcoming tour is that the band decides to change the setlist up very often. Not only does it make for more fun, but it brings surprises to those who always check setlists, like myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowlingfox Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I would probably faint if they played Life in Technicolor ii. I'm going to the May 1 or 2 show, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyM218 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 They had a B-Stage for Viva Tour. It'd be kinda hard to get a B-Stage at all of those festivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
