Thank you - thought it was just me for a while I am glad I am not alone. Like you I expected it to be here on release day, I ordered the day it was announced and they took my money straight away. So Warner Music needs to sort itself out, we never had this issue with Live Nation. And it is not as though they have not had enough time to sort all this out. I wonder why they changed from Live Nation anyway.

So I ordered the complete package CD/vinyl/cassette and they throw in the tee shirt. I was surprised when I got home to find that my order had not arrived and on checking the website for my order status (fully expecting to see that it has been dispatched) find that it is still showing as 'packing'. Has anyone else experienced this? To say I am beyond unhappy is a slight understatement! :mad:

One will attempt to try and get a ticket but given the scrum that will happen I am not in the least bit confident.

I quite agree with you and this was the exact thought I had when I first heard Orphans. Not a huge fan of this song, but I am looking forward to the album release and Everyday Life is great. It stands to reason though that Global Citizen would have an influence on Chris's writing and music.

Maybe they did and the others did not wish to attend. I must admit I find these events rather distasteful as the attendees do not practice what they preach and I wish that Chris had not participated.

I hate to disappoint you but I got a copy of this for Christmas - my daughter purchased it on Amazon for me:)

I think you are a little unkind calling Chris 'greedy'. I sincerely hope I was missing the joke somehow. Happy birthday Chis, the work you do for others is wonderful.

Shame it is not in the UK!

Whilst I have not been a 'true' fan from the very beginning, I have to agree with COLDPLAYINGMAMA that no one is too old to go to a concert. My first concert happened purely by chance when I won tickets to see them after the Brits at their Warchild concert and to say that I was blown away is a very big understatement. As a 'mature' Coldplayer I am fortunate enough to have a disposable income to go to concerts and subsequently went to see them at Wembley, the Sentabale concert and Cardiff. And when they do tour again it is my dream to be able to travel abroad to see them. I have also built up a collection of CD's and memorabilia of which I am very proud. My age? Well lets just say I am nearer pension age than I would like to be, but then a 'lady' never reveals her age does she?! ;)

When you are at work and your friend in another office messages you to say that Coldplay are playing on a different radio station to the one that you have on and you immediately switch stations :laughing:

So did I, guess we are addicted to the guys :-)

Yes thank you I did know it was 17 December but I am still wondering what time of the day it was - is there a good time to be at the Bakery to be in with a chance of a 'sighting'?!

So no one can tell me the time of these photos???

The concert was on Sky Arts last night so spent a very pleasant couple of hours watching it.

Magellanic Penguin for company

This week, Thursday to be precise when I failed to hear my alarm and had to dash around and dress for our office Christmas lunch that day, so was a little late for work. When was the last time you did a good deed?

Mango - you need your 5 a day :)

But you cannot eat or drink them and really they serve no practical purpose on a picnic! :) But the thought is nice.

Sadly I don't really know anyone that well enough to class as a friend :(
