LFDianne Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Check out how pissed the Coldplayers on tumblr are I don't know why so many people are upset - Coldplay (through the Oracle) flat out said they were not playing the Olympic Closing Ceremonies, only the Para-lympics.

butterflygirl Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 A roadie that upgraded me last night said they were catching a plane to get to London for the Closing Ceremony. Unless he meant just to watch..... I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest howyousawtheworld Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hahahaha I was laughing so hard when she came on to sing with Queen ! That was terrible ! I hope Mercury didn't get to hear that from where he is :dozey: Dear God, this is SO boring One of the best moments of the evening was moments before showing a montage of Freddie Mercury exercising the crowd. Proving that in death Freddie Mercury can entertain more than Jessie J can in life. Actually, when Jessie J did come on I thought I had died and gone to hell. Terrible. Just terrible.

Lauriane Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 ^ Yes seeing Freddy Mercury coming back to life on the screens was a great image I think :) It was great. Then Brian May being a god with his guitar was great. And then... there was Jessie J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldplaymom Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 It's not so much their physical absence than the absence of their songs. There's a celebration of Brt music for the past 50 years and not a single Coldplay song? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a celebration of Brt music for the past 50 years and not a single Coldplay song? Along with Radiohead, they were planned to be included in Danny Boyle's opening ceremony (Viva La Vida) but unfortunately it had to be cut from the final ceremony because of time constraints. Coldplay were obviously unavailable but will be in the Paralympic closing ceremony - hopefully just them because after last night I was relieved they didn't make an appearance because of the likes Jessie J.

James. Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 If One Direction can sing at a concert celebrating the 'best of british music', and not a single Coldplay or Radiohead song is played, then I wonder what the world is coming to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly! We knew they weren't going to be present, but plenty of music was played without the actual artists being there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree !!! WTF?! Exactly! We knew they weren't going to be present, but plenty of music was played without the actual artists being there. THIS !! They could have played one song even without their presence, I'm sorry but Coldplay are for sure the biggest British band right now. British music theme without mentioning them? No way.

I was thinking this after Russell Brand came out. Did we really want them at the same event as Russell Brand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfing7861 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I was thinking this after Russell Brand came out. Did we really want them at the same event as Russell Brand? They've already been 'together' at the 2012 Secret Policeman's Ball, so it wouldn't really be new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tash Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Anchorman just tweeted this, it couldn't be much clearer than this : ) For those asking, Coldplay were never due to play the Olympics Closing Ceremony. They play the Paralympics Closing Ceremony on 9 Sept. A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah that's why I'm kinda confused about everyone whining about it, nothing was said that confirmed about such a thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
