Cobalt Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I found this setlist, and while I don't know if it is fake or not - if this is true it is outrageous. So little old material ! And it is as if X&Y never existed. And really, XMTS ?! The only reason I find this hard to believe is In My Place being second. Otherwise it's kinda known that Coldplay like to stuff their setlists with whatever's on the latest album and maybe have a few throwbacks to older albums with the old singles. Which is why it seems slightly odd that they'd remember Green Eyes exists or bother to play the snorefest UATW, but anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Us Against The World isn't a snorefest, it's a break in the concert energy, coinciding with them moving to the alt stage. In My Place was second during the MX tour, assuming you count MX and HLH as a package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prospekt46 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I was reading comments on a recording of "The Dubliners" There's something about this that makes me laugh and cry at the same time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Adversary Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 It would be an elaborate hate letter. I understand that sometimes you'd like to grab them by the shoulders and yell at them but it's just a bad idea. Criticism ≠ Hate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beastwars Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Last two pages made me lose faith in humanity.... anyway, last saturday evening I saw a boxset with the first 4 albums in a shop and I felt strange. A part of me was very happy, another was angry for how things went through time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthamic Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 No, it may be fake. But to be honest it is a pretty realistic list... Actually there's no Charlie Brown and they need that to showcase how rich they are (the Xylobands) and it'd be weird to place it in the encore. Unless they changed their mind and do 2 encores, with one including Charlie Brown. As much as I dislike the song I think it'd be weird to drop it; I remember seeing a set list where they played Charlie Brown but no Paradise ( I think), so that's one reason this would be fake. Who knows? They might play Twisted Logic or something :P Sent from my Death Star using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then better prepare for the riot...I bet the band will choose among the fan requests stuff they love playing anyway like UATW or Til Kingdom Come...rather than anything really surprising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really sad that they have such an extensive and realised back catalogue and they choose to play all the generic hits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don"t even play their earlier hits anymore, which is even more disappointing ! Think of Talk and Speed Of Sound and Trouble and Violet Hill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
