Hi all. I was tuned into Bauer Radio yesterday (the same station that broadcasted the Coldplay InDemand at Sunderland a couple of weeks ago), and after they had played Princess of China over the airwaves the presenter said there is a "Big Coldplay announcement due next week".

 

Now I don't have a clue what he's talking about, so I'd love it if any of my fellow Coldplayers did :wink3: .

 

He didn't elaborate whatsoever, so this has left me excited, but somewhat irritated!

 

I so bloody hope they announce more UK dates on their tour! I'd aim to go to every single one! I went to Coventry and Manchester twice, and also going to Paris in two months, but I can't get enough of them!

 

I'm so intriguied by what the news is :thinking:.

 

Thanks in advance!

From the schedule of events.

1:00-2:00 Bongo: Mylo Zyloto— Every album begins with the germ of an idea, every song tells a story, and now it is finally revealed that there is a secret narrative behind Coldplay’s newest hit album and its enigmatic title Mylo Xyloto. Three years ago, frontman Chris Martin teamed up with Mark Osborne (Kung Fu Panda, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, and the upcoming The Little Prince) to develop the epic story that has gone on to inspire such chart-toppers as “Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall,” “Paradise,” and “Princess of China.” Join the creative team behind the new comic miniseries Mylo Xyloto — Alejandro Fuentes, Steve Hamaker, and Dylan Haggerty — and prepare to experience the sights and sounds of Coldplay in a whole new way.

The Sun reported this too. Their only info: "It probably won't be a split".

Bands don't say there is a big announcement coming next week for a split.A press conference announced for the day before a split, yes. I think & hope it's extra dates & the Coldplay film.

A comic? I'm getting nervous, I have a feeling that if it's a comic I probably won't like it.

Olympics??

Olympics??

I'm waiting in nervous/excited anticipation to find out what's going on...:P

Anyone any idea which day it's going to be announced?

Usually no, especially not when a band has several months of commitments still on the calendar. That said, it could still be a hiatus or something equally unpleasant without being a split per se. I'm not saying I think it's going to be anything of the sort, but if it was an amicable split, along the lines of "eh, we'd just rather do other things for awhile", it could very well include a press conference.
