July 19, 201213 yr The seem to have forgotten about Asia... And I'm still wondering why they never play in countries like Russia, Turkey or Ukraine.
July 28, 201213 yr I really hope they hit Hartford and Madison Square in 2013. It'll give me a reason to go home again. and I wish they'd do Jacksonville, FL shows. Atlanta is a 6 hour drive from my house and Tampa is like a 4 hour drive. I personally don't mind travelling to see them (hell, I'm taking a plane at the end of this month to see them and I'm petrified of flying) but it would be nice to only take a 30 minute drive to see them and be home the same night. Yes. I totally agree! I would fall out from shock if Coldplay ever played Jacksonville! I couldn't imagine my favorite band playing in my hometown! However, if it isn't country music or Southern rock, Jacksonville isn't interested. At least Tampa and Orlando aren't terribly far.
July 28, 201213 yr If they don't do a second NA leg, a lot of people are going to be extremely disappointed and it would definitely raise quite a few question marks about their ability to sustain a global tour, especially since it didn't initially start in stadiums. But then there's also the question of how long they can fiscally afford to stay on the road. It's already been mentioned several times that this tour could bankrupt the band, so they may be forced to cut it short. Bankrupt them eh?
July 30, 201213 yr I for one would be thrilled if they did a few more intimate shows at some point. It would be great if they could figure out a way to make the audience based on real fans who have been following the band and know more than a few songs instead of people who can afford to just pay their way in. I know they give away seats to their shows to people who are in the rafters but that can only be a small percentage.
September 7, 201213 yr The seem to have forgotten about Asia... And I'm still wondering why they never play in countries like Russia, Turkey or Ukraine. Me too :\ We are still waiting for them.
September 12, 201213 yr I also asked the Oracle about Ireland, I didn't get a reply either but that doesn't mean they wont. I think they are holding out for the Slane 2013 headline slot hence why they haven't done any arena/stadium dates in Ireland yet. I hope God reads this forum. :D :D
September 14, 201213 yr ^Me too.:D The last 2 Slane headline acts were announced in the month of October, so guess we will find out soon enough who's heading next years. C'mon Coldplay .....
September 16, 201213 yr I just saw this on internet, i don't know if it's true or not . http://www.concertboom.com/coldplay/tour-dates/ December 1, 2012 Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh Mylo Xyloto Tour December 7, 2012 Adam Smith Theatre, Kirkcaldy Mylo Xyloto Tour September 24, 2012 Greece, Athens Mylo Xyloto Tour :wtf: :wtf: this is NOT true :D

September 18, 201213 yr @Amber I think if they ever did go to China. They probably wouldn't be able to play songs like Hurts Like Heaven or Major Minus. I think the boys deserve some well earned well rested time off. They have put on quite a tour. :)
September 26, 201213 yr Almost died when I saw that Edinburgh one but turns out to be false. Gutted :( But I have seen them twice in the last year so I suppose I just have to be insanely thankful for that (which I am, of course!)
September 26, 201213 yr Still waiting :/ Maybe one day they will decide to tour the Middle East XD Keep dreaming :P
September 26, 201213 yr 1 December 2012, Murrayfield Stadium GlitterFest 2012 https://www.eticketing.co.uk/scottishrugby/details/event.aspx?itemref=2699 7 December 2012, Adam Smith Theatre Sleeping Beauty http://www.onfife.com/events/sleeping-beauty I assume these 'dates' are false :( ?
September 26, 201213 yr Im hopeful they will play Slane Castle this summer. There was a lot of speculation they would play in 2012 but the organisers confirmed that it will take a gap year and return in 2013. The rumour of Coldplay headlining even made the local papers!
September 26, 201213 yr Checked wiki: - MX Tour is the shortest after Parachutes, only 85 gigs vs Viva 170 vs Twisted Logic 136; - MX Tour lasts 13 month vs Viva 21 month vs Twisted Logic 22 month. And new concert gig will be released in November - how many people can be attract after broadcasting? Also add 2013 MX tour calendar. I suggest we could see another 40-50 gigs next year, maybe US second leg along with Europe, with couple of gigs in Latin America and Japan. This tour is a goldmine for everyone involved. They can't just cut it short like this. I also remember how before the tour they said something about expansion in East Europe. So I keep faith, because I f*cked up this year gigs, being too lazy buying tickets months in advance. I really believe with Live 2012 release they could announce new tour dates, which makes perfect sense.

I was just coming on here to post these EXACT numbers, and you beat me to it! ;) I completely agree that there will be more tour dates. Just look at the box office score data on the Wikipedia page... this tour is a massive success financially. I see them still doing Asia, SA, and outdoor NA venues. It's a no brainer.

Well, I wasn't good at predicting MX release, so maybe I would be again dead wrong, because this era marketing absolutely different to previous releases :P But I really want to see this performance, let's hope our boys and producers would be a bit greedy in the end :wink3:
September 26, 201213 yr I absolutely hope I'm wrong, but didn't the band say that the tour was over after the Australian shows, and that they were taking 2013 off so that Gweneth can be with her mother? I think they probably will do South America and Mexico in the first third of next year, but I think that'll probably be it. Again, I hope I'm wrong, because I didn't get to see the MX tour! Saw them once on AROBTTH tour, twice on Twisted Logic, and !!ZERO!! times on the VLV tour. So I was really looking forward to seeing them this time, and figured they'd at least come to one of Ohio's three major cities.
September 27, 201213 yr There are rumors going around in this thread/the internet about the band taking 12 months off for various reasons (such as Chris relocating to LA) but they're all exactly that, rumors. I'm basing my guesses on their touring history and the timing, and that's all. Maybe I'm being too wishful, but I see the tour continuing after a winter hiatus.
September 27, 201213 yr Will they come back next year to play in Holland again? If so, I want to see them again after being to the Malieveld concert on September 6th.
September 30, 201213 yr I'm still surprised they didn't have/haven't had any shows in cities like New York City or Tokyo. They really cut short their US tour in terms of numbers of shows.
