robsmith7 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 This is very strange...why would Capital FM put out such an announcement on their official website if it wasn't true? But how can they possibly be there if they've got the Manchester gig? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robsmith7 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 God that line up makes me want to be sick! Coldplay line-ups should have bands like the Doves, Elbow, Interpol and Supergrass (like 2005 tour) rather than Justin Bieber, The Wanted and Katy Perry!!

MXHLH Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 this might happen: 1.they could postpone the manchester june 9th show to a manchester june 11 show. OR 2.they could not play at this summertime ball 2012:\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 These are the only two possibilities, I'm afraid :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tash Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Or they could do both of them on the same day (London in the afternoon and Manchester in the evening) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busybeeburns Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 1.they could postpone the manchester june 9th show to a manchester june 11 show.no chance I'm guessing they'll open this concert during the daytime, hop into their LiTii chopper and head to Manchester to play in the evening, similar to what they did for Live8 and Glasgow in 2005. It couldn't get more simpler than that? Marty you're not thinking 4th dimentionally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tash Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 Is this the best line-up ever? Katy Perry, Coldplay and Justin Bieber are confirmed for the Summertime Ball They are joined by Usher, Flo Rida, Jessie J, Kelly Clarkson, Ed Sheeran and The Wanted for the annual Capital FM party It might not be to everyone's taste but the Summertime Ball have just announced one of the most impressive line-ups ever. Some of the biggest music stars on the planet will be performing at the Capital FM event - and they will undoubtedly be making diva requests backstage. Katy Perry makes a special appearance just months after concluding her massive California Dreams world tour. While Justin Bieber - who surprisingly is yet to hit number one in the UK singles chart - will also take to the stage. Coldplay were also confirmed for the the event which takes place at Wembley Stadium on 9th June, and will host US superstars Usher, Flo Rida, Pitbull and Kelly Clarkson. Additionally, Ed Sheeran, Example and Jessie J will also be performing alongside boyband The Wanted. There's no sign of One Direction, though, after they foolishly thanked rival station BBC Radio 1 when receiving a Brit for the best single (What Makes Your Beautiful), as voted for by listeners of Capital FM. Tickets for the fourth edition of the annual event go on general sale on Monday (23rd April) at 8am. Alternatively, if you're a Capitalfm.com VIP or a Vodafone customer, you can get access to an exclusive tickets pre-sale now. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Or they could do both of them on the same day (London in the afternoon and Manchester in the evening) Their performance in London would have to be very short, and the first one. Otherwise it's almost impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
