I ran away

SAME

I believe they are John Metcalfe's string players !

How can you get the old CPING smilies ??

Ah, yours are always so difficult :D

Can we call it FLACS ?

Can I have a PM please ? @Captain Crieff JUST KIDDING ! I love Flags, it sounds like an AROBTTH B-side with Vivaesque lyrics to me. And since I read the lyrics I can't stop thinking about a group of skeletons sitting around their coffees at a table chatting.... :D And that last "Oh I just love you for yourself" :heart:

On that note let me tell you that the size "S" T-shirt I bought at the Natural History museum looks like it was made for whales...definitely way too large for an S ! :D But hey, at least I got No. 42/300. I was so blown away when I saw that when I was home ! [MEDIA=twitter]1201654082722811904[/MEDIA] View: https://twitter.com/I_Ran_Away/status/1201654082722811904?s=19

Am I the only one who doesn't like that song too much ? :/

I'm interested in the potential set list as well. Maybe share it in a spoiler tag !

Wow ! So looking forward to this !!! Unfortunately I can't play the drums...

I love the weird sound effects/detuning/glitches in the beginning :D

There has been a lot of misquoting on that, so just to clarify: There will be a world tour for presumably the next album but they will try to make it sustainable. The reason why they aren't touring EL is not sustainability but rather that they don't feel this is the right album to tour and don't feel ready for another big tour yet.

I'm not @coldplayisawesome but I believe they reintroduced the butterfly confetti for the 2017 US tour which she attended ! :)

Oh yes, good point !

I'm proud that Coldplay really are taking a stand with this and hope it will be a powerful video ! just hope they don't re-enact the speech sample in a literal way, because that would imho take away from the eeriness and impact of the original

Welcome to Coldplaying !

(Just kidding :D)

In My Place vs Spies

Haha, let's see if I can find that report of yours later. Curious to read it ! Yeah, with undeserved luck I meant I didn't deserve it any more than all the kind people I met there (and actually less than the people from the UK), and none of them made it in. And I could tell some people were really upset and one of my friends was even crying when I got the ticket because and there was just nothing we could do about it :sob: I hope the band (management) learn from their mistakes. It is absolutely okay to do super small concerts, but as I said, having the biggest band in the world play their ONLY announced concert of this era in a part of the world where a lot of their audience is located in such a tiny venue was just bound to be headed for disaster. Well, I did suffer through A LOT of anxiety through that flight and it was pretty touch and go as opposed to the first one with the medication, but I can't help be a little proud that I resisted the tempation and confronted it, because is important in therapy to expose yourself to the anxiety and then sit through ("sitting with the poison takes away the pain"). My therapist is on holiday right now but she'll be pleased to hear that I managed to do that ! I certainly only managed because I was still feeling great overall from the concert. This, and with the help of two songs: Fix You got me up in the air (try syncing the guitar solo to when the plane speeds up on the runway !) and Arabesque got me down (that was a tough one, there was a storm and the landing was very bumpy and needed a messy chaotic wall of sound to get absorbed by :D)

I don't know if that makes sense, but a few I can think of would be: - having something signed from the band - being front row at a concert - visiting the Bakery - meeting and talking to the band in person - 100K posts on Coldplaying :D

I thought that too. Maybe the joke is on us and this thread is not actually that far-fetched :D Then again, do you believe they'd really do that ? I doubt it. And Chris was like, I haven't told the band yet, so I bet it's just a random idea of his.

That was a thought I had for London actually, to use multiple computers from the university computer pool :D But then I had to be on my way to the airport at the time the tickets went on sale so I ended up only being able to use my phone...

Sparks vs Lovers in Japan

I did note in my video that Chris's microphone was muted right before they started Church, so you're probably right.

I'm not sure. How can you find that out ? I mean, the "waaaaaavee" parts did sound a tad too perfect to my ears but I don't know.
