i hope they play Amsterdam i'm working for Oxfam yippeee.

driving down the empty highway, just you and the passing lights above wind blowing through the half-open window stereo so loud you can't hear yourself scream your destination is home...but you just want to keep driving. because you're looking for something that can't be found, it can only be experienced.

White Shadows should be next, that or Swallowed in the Sea hell, Moses should be released too, why not?

HAHAHA i got that one...Interference rawks too

okay it's working now... sounds like Square One...GARR it's buffering! haha

"in concert :: Coldplay Coldplay is playing tonight at the Pond, tickets are sold out but you can still catch the show. We will be webcasting the show tonight starting at 9 pm. For all the upcoming concerts info check out the KROQ Concert Calendar." anyone watching this? i can't find it anywhere on KROQ.com, HELP!!! ahhhh...

anyone know how many hours did it take for the presale for today to sell out?

yes i got an email from KROQ (i'm a member, it's free) with a password for the Friday presale at 10 am any idea how many tickets are allocated?

Hey you have it reversed, tabs are written like so (1)e|-0----------0------------0-------------0---------- (2)b|----3-----------3-------------3------------3------ (3)g|------2--2---------0--0---------0--0------------- (4)d|----------------------------------------------4--4- (5)a|--------------------------------------------------- (6)e|--------------------------------------------------- 6th string is the thickest, and 1st string is the thinnest one btw that riff is "Speed of Sound" best of luck to learning guitar, I taught myself using the Internet and books over the last year, and I am quite proficient by now on my acoustic. Coldplay's an alright band to learn songs, guitar is pretty simple compared to other bands. Get into the Beatles too, they have a lot of easy (and hard) songs as well. My tip to you is, if you want to be good at guitar, all you have to do is practice, practice, practice. The first few months are the hardest, but you don't have the will to play, then you'll never be good. My main motivation is U2, and my desire to play "Where the Streets Have No Name" on a Fender Strat helps me practice a lot so I can eventually ask my parents for an electric...anyways GOOD LUCK

lol yeah anyways lilchick I like that you are trying to like U2 because of your bf, evn though you think they're overrated or whatever. To me, the lyrics of Bono speak the most to me as a person who has problems with life and everything else. As a musician, the Edge's distinct style of play sets him apart from anyone else out there, though he'll never be compared to Hendrix, Clapton, Page, just because he's much different from them. As for the actual music, I am surprised you don't like their singles. Have you heard their Joshua Tree singles? They're magnificent... Anyways it is true if Coldplay and U2 both started at the same time, Coldplay would be much more popular considering the strength of their hit single "Yellow", which U2 lacked on their debut album. Although that album was critically acclaimed and ranked in Rolling Stone's Top 500 albums of all time. Btw I'm seeing them for the first time ever next month in Los Angeles, very excited heh

I take MAJOR personal offense to the Joshua Tree's inclusion in that list :angry: whoever thinks so should go back to their mental instutition... sorry if I offend anyone, but no, I am really that sorry :sneaky:

hey do you know how to do the lead guitar bit in the acoustic version? I'm thinking of covering this gem for a talent show with my buddy, but he doesn't know the lead part...any help would be cool, thanks

go to http://www.musicnotes.com it's awesome...

err I love U2 though! and Oasis isn't bad, I'd like them to make a comeback well...NOT GREEN DAY, that's all I know lol

bout 3 weeks for me, just be patient :)

kapone is a genius!

err could ya upload some of the vids you converted? i dont think i can buy the tool

U2

wow U2 was great

nah those are just playlists of the artists performing, realize that each artist gets like 15 minutes, so obviously one song will not do and also collaborations like u2 and Macca, coldplay and ashcroft, aren't on iTunes thought it is a good idea for someone to bootleg and sell it on iTunes, give the $$$ to charity

phooey does anyone know what time the concerts on AOL will start? list the time zone too, cuz im in Los Angeles

HAHA that'd be funny Philly's lineup just doesn't appeal to me, too hip/hop-pop. We all agree London rocks the most, is anyone here going?

thx for SoS btw who tabbed the music? it's not exactly as the actual sheet music on Musicnotes

Fix You so X...but Swallowed in the Sea! nahh still X

hmmm i agree with your assessment. It's great that Coldplay stands for Make Trade Fair and the others, but they should find some way to incorporate that into their lyrics, and live shows, as U2 has done. "Sunday Bloody Sunday" was anti-war, "Bullet the Blue Sky" was anti-weapons trade, and "One" is promoting the One Campaign started by Bono. Coldplay can really make a name for themselves at Live 8 by doing something special. Oh and the small beef against Coldplay is that their lyrics could use some work. They're kind of vague sometimes.
