Following a link someone send me, that she found on a blog (I don't know which one thank you if it is one of you ;), there is a link for the first website of the band, PRIOR to Parachute !!!

 

So in press review there is this article from 1999 that most of you probably didn't read http://web.archive.org/web/19991127210905/http://www.coldplay.org/

 

it feature some funny quotes in most of the reviews :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

 

here are one :

 

''I was really drunk once'' hums bassist Gay Berryman ''and I was trying to work out whether penguins are birds or fishs''

 

There is even a 42 reference

^OMG such a funny article :lol::lol:

 

And their website looks like they were Star Wars fans :lol::lol:

Interesting site.. There is a lot of the pictures on it that I haven't seen before. :surprised:

“My name’s Chris, I’m 22 and I'm built like a brick shithouse! I like playing golf.

 

Chris liked Golf? :lol:

COLDPLAY

The Blue Room EP

(Parlophone)

Brilliantly moody and atmospheric angst rock, should have no trouble sulking their way to superstardom. A bit like Thom Yorke not having sex with anybody.

 

 

:lol::laugh3::laugh3:

NME - Pandamonium at London Kentish Town Bull & Gate 18 January

 

It's Oxford-spawned cubs COLDPLAY, though, who make a surprise grab at the best-of-the-week honours, sucking in the metropolis' entire community of A&R baldheads with their Jeff Buckley-style vocal virtuosity and penchant for the sort of epic melody that would make Embrace go week at the knees. True, they have terrible hair. But give set-closer 'Shiver' a moment to breathe, and the spectre of stardom becomes ridiculously, obviously imminent.

 

No they didn't. :angry: It just made them cuter :phu:

 

 

 

Jk. Their hair were a mess :lol::lol:

 

^^ :lol:

Oh, on their old website, when you go to "Contacts", you can read:

Coldplay manager : Philip Harvey

 

:wacky:

:wacky:

Kinda feels like time travelling to me, it's like they're just getting famous :wacky:

 

 

 

Gaaaah the nostalgia!! :bigcry:

This is incredible and so interesting. The timeline history thing of the website is great. Thanks for posting!

Oh the nostalgia :wacky:

This is when you realise how much they've evolved :stunned:

Awesome !

it's great :cool:

Where can I send mail to the band?

It is preferred that for many reasons, mail is submitted via email. As well as being easier on the environment, it saves on postage costs for fans too. Also the sheer volume of mail is almost impossible to handle in physical envelopes/packages etc. Please send mail to [email protected]

If you want to send gifts to the band, we thank you kindly but ask that you donate to your favourite charity.

http://web.archive.org/web/20000308193048/http://www.coldplay.com/

 

If you change .org to .com You have the old Coldplay.com

Gotta love the 90's web pages.

Gotta love the 90's web pages.

 

LOL

Coldplayers, I need your help!

I'm looking for an interview posted in the old coldplay.com site (I think). Its from 2000/2001 (again, I'm not sure).

its the one the boys answer questions from the fans.

The thing is, I think the picture below was posted with the interview. Am I wrong? And if Iam, can someone tell me where is it from?

 

Thanks!

Hi!

 

They played the Bizarre Festival on 18.8.2000, this should be a pic from the backstage area of the festival... Link

Can't remember that there was an interview session but you never know!

 

Their clothes match as well:
