So no swearing for that concert then.

Just cant believe the people didnt know the words! If i had called in.... it would have sounded horrible but i would have the words right! :lol:

:nod:

So no swearing for that concert then.

I imagine Chris dropping the F bomb and then saying something like: Shit, we're on radio!

:lol:

 

June 1st...last day of my internship! I finish at 7 pm....be home by 7.30...which makes it 6.30 in London...Well I'll miss a part of the backstage, if I'm lucky I won't miss the interview if there's one :D

Hmm ..now chris just tell us about that EP

that was the massive announcement? Where's our EP?

Hmm ..now chris just tell us about that EP

 

This :nod:

 

 

 

I want CK!!!

 

OK that was disappointing. Not really MASSIVE news was it?

 

However I DID try calling in. I am going on 2nd, so you know, getting tickets for 1st as well would have been awesome... but just so that you know I WOULD have known the words LOL! I got through the first time and they HUNG up on me! It rang for ages, and ages.. so I put it on speakerphone. They picked up and I grabbed it, it must have taken me all of 2 seconds... but by the time I said.. hello they were gone! So flipping quick!!

 

I am almost glad I didn't get though though! How embarrassing would that have been!? :laugh3: You'd all have heard me singing really really badly! :cool:

This is probably a stupid question but the broadcast will be audio only, right?

 

Also, I literally had a dream last night that the announcement was about a new EP named "Anchorman's Maytag" or something like that. lol.

:(

 

I slept at 2 am here in Mexico just to hear the MASSIVE news... they've had a lot of Live streamings that now for me this is everything but massive.

 

totally disappointed I went to bed.

Wow what a disappointment...

Hm... I was a little bit disappointed although it's a nice announcement. But I took 'massive' literally, so I had high requirements to this announcement (something about the DVD etc.) But finally, it's okay.

wow this is amazing :D i can't wait :escaping:

lol, "massive" wasn't really the appropriate word to use...-_-

 

but still great news! I already know I'll be spending 6-7 hours on the website just for all the Coldplay segments! ahaha

So no swearing for that concert then.

 

 

Nah, just the old 7 second delay.;)
