Hey everyone, I haven't done one of these update posts in a while and a lot has changed since the last one. Firstly I would like to say a massive thank you to Christa42 for her years of amazing work. who recently stepped down from the Coldplaying Team. Christa has been part of the Coldplaying community for over 10 years and has been an integral part of the team and the community. Christa's unique personality and amazing moderating skills will be missed. Let's hope she will pop in to say hi in the future! Marcelo has also stepped down to work on his own projects such as coldplaybrasil.com. This currently brings us to 10 team members (including myself). Some of you may have noticed the current mess of multimedia downloads on the forums. I have received countless messages asking for things to be re-uploaded but it is taking longer than expected. At the moment I am organising the hundreds of gigabytes worth of concerts I have offline. They will all be uploaded once everything is catalogued but it takes an extremely long time to do everything. Expect the downloads section to be up and running with every Coldplay concert available by the end of this year. I am also working on a comprehensive guide to every Coldplay concert ever. It will contain links to video and audio downloads as well as the setlist. For future concerts, ticket information, venue information, accommodation and flight info, facts and more will be available. This will allow users to visit one page that will contain every bit of info about a concert they need The gallery is currently being run by @sydflower and is being updated regularly with hundreds of new photos being added every week! The forums have received a massive makeover with a new theme. I am working on a feature that will allow you to change the colour of the theme as some of you are not happy with the current colour scheme. The forums are also receiving minor updates regularly. Image caching and "Stay logged in" by default have just been added recently. The Coldplaying app is still available on Android however it will not be updated in the future and may possibly be removed from the play store. I would also like to thank everyone who follows us on social media. Our Twitter recently hit 70k followers while our Facebook has nearly reached 177k! If anyone has any questions or feedback please leave a reply below. I'm not sure when you will next get a messy update post like this one again but stay tuned :P Thanks

We were approached by somebody who worked at a radio station that had recently interviewed Chris, he knew when there was going to be information posted about the EP and told us (and presumably atlas). We chose not to post about it to not spoil the surprise but others posted about it. I reported the leak to someone from Coldplay and it will hopefully prevent it from happening again.

I'm really hoping that second soundcheck is something from the new EP. It sounds amazing!

Atlas has more staff than us

Y'all will hear news really soon, don't worry! This won't be like AHFOD when Chris announced it like a year too early :P

Loving this song at the moment. It's by Spoon who are a texas based indie-pop band. Their new album is out this March!

I freaking love this, hope it goes number one and is played on the radio non-stop :P

If you scroll down to the bottom of the page you can choose which theme you want to use. I personally love the new theme, it actually makes me want to use the forums again.

v3.0 Migrated to new Material design theme Nodes & categories now have photos Smilies will be added soon

I can't wait for this to be played on the radio non stop :D

Let's speculate. Will Coldplay perform Hymn For The Weekend or will they play something from Kaleidoscope EP?

Coldplay is the latest act to sign up to perform at the Brit Awards tomorrow, joining Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, The 1975, Robin Williams and more at the London O2 Arena. The band dropped into the venue yesterday to rehearse for the annual mega show that is the Brit Awards. The band dropped into the venue yesterday to rehearse for the annual mega show that is the Brit Awards. A source from the SunUK said: “Coldplay are Britain’s biggest band so their presence at the awards was a must for bosses. They signed up very late on due to concern over other commitments but they always wanted to play the Brits.” Coldplay is up for two awards, Best Video and Best Single, both for Hymn For The Weekend. Given Hymn For The Weekend is up for these awards we can only expect them to perform it. However, we may hear new material from Coldplay's upcoming 'Kaleidoscope EP' since they performed Hymn For The Weekend at last year's Brits (watch below). Live at the Brit Awards If you happen to live in the UK then you can watch on ITV or ITV Hub For anyone who lives outside of the UK, a live stream will be available on YouTube. If you prefer to watch ITV's coverage then you can watch it here or here. When is the Show? You will be able to watch live Wednesday (Feb 22nd) at these times: 7:30 PM local time (GMT) 2:30 PM EST 11:30 AM PST Time in your area

I'm so fricking excited for the new EP. It's looking like Chris opened his big mouth a bit too early, similar to AHFOD. I'm looking towards a late February or early March release date!

It's not that fun for us lol. When AHFOD leaked I had to shut down the site and report all links to Coldplay!

Fixed, it was something do with with a setting that changed automatically on our CDN.

Thank you everyone who voted :)

Uh oh, take the keys

Lips - The xx It's not out yet but you'll all be able to hear it tomorrow. It's amazing

Now I've gotta manually enter all of the smilies lolololol

I'm getting Car Kids vibes lol

Definitely a bold move but knowing Coldplay's amazing team, they will put on an amazing and safe show.

Thank you all for the kind works, it really makes this job worth it :heart:

I can't view that attachment for some reason

That's really good to hear, glad you enjoy the forums :)

Reviving this thread because I feel like I'm going to be posting in it a lot :P I can't stop listening to The xx today. Their debut album "xx" and second album "Coexist" are both beautiful and unique pieces of art. "I See You" which is their third album is out on January 13th :party:
