The Adversary

Yes. Seeing them in July The Beatles?

Parachutes vs Unknown Pleasures (Joy Division)

Nope Arctic Monkeys?

They all looked very uncomfortable playing A Message.

Yes The Killers?

No Depeche Mode?

So when are we going to be able to get Coldplaying.com t shirts?

Very cool. I'd have no problem wearing the Viva era gear out and about! Something so effortlessly cool about it.

Yes!!!! I always thought that I was just imagining this as a product of the sub-conscious mind. It's very faint but I always sing it.

After a bit of research I tend to agree, disgusting to be frank.

Surely this would be illegal in Germany?

Apology accepted. Now let's forget about this drawn out debate and listen to what we want/post in the threads we want without attacking each other.

Now I want to see the Politik visuals....

That's certainly how it would appear to me. If not mocking a definite reaction, a "look at how great fans we are, we love everything! not like those guys" type thing. I don't know how you could even deny this with your passive-aggressive titling of this thread. Silly and childish. The undertones of mockery are defintely there, especially in the 'Ultimate Newplay' variant of these threads.

And bald :P

@I ran away If you could put a message at the end of the video asking management where the hell the Irish dates are for the tour that would be great, thanks lol :laugh3:

Stargate look like stereotypical supervillians. I mean just look at them: You can just sense their invidious evil-doing. In the background pulling strings, ruining everything they touch.

This is exactly the problem, both positions are the antithesis of each other (much like the difference in Coldplay's music) that makes them virtually irreconcilable. It's my general experience the Oldplaying thread tends to be where the majority of in depth, interesting and mature discussion happens. As mentioned above, theres a reason why it's probably the most popular thread on the forum at the moment. Generally, I find the posters in there to be both older in age and older fans of the band. Whereas, on the other hand, I find our 'Newplayer' friends to be that bit younger (the majority teenagers? :huh2:) and this is where this blind loyalty stems from. Remember, the Oldplaying thread was started with a genuine purpose whereas these other threads were set up in a way as to mock and be reactionary. They're absolutely pointless and childish which only proves the hypothesis in my opinion, they created the divide, not us. I know it's a generalisation and obviously doesn't apply to all fans who enjoy the newer material but I think it does apply to those who like to ad-hominem anyone who dare suggest 10 years ago Coldplay were a vastly superior band. For the most part I'll just stick to discussing Oldplay in the Oldplaying thread, that pretty much works for me and others and has stiffled virtually all debate compared to the zoo the forum was in the summer before AHFOD came out. The status quo works ;) EDIT: I also don't recall anyone on either side making Nazi references, even when the debate was most heated. I think that's a bit of hyperbole on your part.

Part of the problem is they only do one request. Get rid of the two covers and add two more requests, you'd have a considerably stronger set after that.

Was it an acoustic version of SoS as played on the Viva tour or was it closer to the studio version?

I object to about 99% of what Newplayers say about Coldplay and disagree with their perception/image of what Coldplay REALLY is.

Wow! I've never seen this concert in HD before, great find!

I just found the video while browsing Oldplay videos, It's not mine nor did I upload the video. Maybe you could use Youtube to MP3 converter?

The band that once brought you this: Now bring you this!: :|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|:|
