Good afternoon. We're very pleased to report that, on 19 November*, Coldplay will release Live 2012, the band’s first concert film / live album for nine years. It documents the Mylo Xyloto world tour, which has been seen by more than three million people since it began in June 2011.

 

Live 2012 will be released on DVD/CD, CD/DVD, Blu-ray & digitally. You can pre-order it now from the Coldplay Music Store, with an exclusive hand-numbered lithograph poster.

 

Said Chris: “The Mylo Xyloto tour has been the most fun we've ever had as a band. It's felt very uplifting right from the start; partly because we are proud of the music, the LED wristbands, the pyrotechnics, the lasers and all of that stuff, but mainly because of the amazing audiences that we've been playing for. Over the years, our crowd has become more and more a part of the concert itself. They're loud, diverse, full of soul, and make the songs sound much better than we can on our own. We wanted to try to bottle the incredible feeling that they give us, and hence our concert film.”

 

In the US, premium network EPIX will premiere the tour film as an EPIX Original Concert Event in the U.S. on November 17, on TV, online at EpixHD.com, and on EPIX apps on hundreds of devices including Xbox consoles, iPads, iPhones, Roku players, and more.

 

The film was directed by Paul Dugdale, previously responsible for Adele’s Live at the Royal Albert Hall and The Prodigy’s Worlds On Fire concert films. Live 2012 includes footage from Coldplay’s shows at Paris’s Stade de France, Montreal’s Bell Centre and last year’s triumphant Pyramid Stage headline performance at Glastonbury Festival.

 

Live 2012 director Paul Dugdale said: “We wanted to make a film that was as intimate as it was epic, punctuating Coldplay's colour-drenched performance with candid portraits of the band. The set is curated from several concerts around the globe, using the 75,000-capacity Stade de France as the backbone. Myself and JA Digital wanted to approach this film in the same way Coldplay approach their stage show: it’s essentially a film about people, and we wanted to highlight how the band have blurred the barrier between stage and audience to create a tour that reaches out to everyone from the front row of the stadium to those right at the back. It's a 90 minute kaleidoscope of emotions. My main objective as a filmmaker was to make the viewers' eyes widen and their hearts beat faster.”

#coldplayfilm coming later this year. our first concert film since 2003. but where to film it? PH

oh god, this is so so so so great! I'm so happy right now c:

I think it's gonna be Emirates Stadium, as it seems to get the most publicity, I hope it'll be Ricoh Arena though!!

fantastic! :)

yes! so happy! :smug:

And an exclusive Tour Diary, PLEASE!!!

 

Yes, that would be amazing! I hope they film it at the Stadium Of Light ;)

very unlikely but i pray it'll be in Copenhagen!

Why don't they announce slane and film the concert there? Would be amazing!!!!

wow,i think its going to be the most sucssefull live concert DVD this year.

^^^ I hope they will film in Copenhagen too. :awesome:

 

 

That would be LEGEN wait for it DARY!

This is so exciting! :dance:

 

 

Edit: I'd love for it to be filmed in Mexico. But sadly there aren't any dates yet :( and probably we will be the last ones...

GREAT!

I think (hope) it will be in England, probably The Emirates, just imagine the amazing stadium it is lit up with fireworks. Hope it's Manchester on the 9th though! Take That did their DVD at the very same Manchester stadium

In fact fairly sure it will be in England, as it will most probably be a stadium show and i'd imagine England would be the chosen European stadium.

:thumbsup: excellant news!

I hope it is @ Emitates,,I'll be going to the 1st of June one with my Son:fingersx:

FAB news!

:dunce2: @ Emirates I mean

It will more than likely be at the Emirates as it is the largest (in terms of publicity anyway) of the British shows.
