By 'getting' I think he meant 'understanding'. Looks like a couple people here ask the OP although the guy himself was looking for (not having) multitracks in the first place.^^

I think they will. Phil promised a while ago some 'surprises' for us, which to me sounds like it's related to all four guys... Okay, that's optimism.

Thank god the forum/website is back! What happened? Thought it was a late April Fools thing, but still the pages load slowly sometimes. Moving servers?

About time!! Great news!

For starting a completely new chapter I VERY hope they go back to their roots!^^

Oh, I love the Telecaster! Nice color. The 'Blue Room' indeed. ;)

The Y&Z Tour would do it justice.^^

Maybe it's a mixture of the two concerts in São Paulo? One in April 2016 and the other in November 2017.

Actually, "PM me!" means you have to write the guy via PM, not in the thread.^^

Very nice! Thanks guys! Btw I wonder who has the original CD-R today, which was the source of the promo tape(s) back then. Would be nice material for a deluxe Parachutes or Early Years set.

I sometimes look out for it on Ebay. Mostly no results...

I heard about that competition about two or three years too late.^^ Wish I had one of the Parachutes era lithographs, especially Shiver and Don't Panic. Love that artwork.

Well, next year's the 20th anniversary of the band's (first) record contract under Parlophone. Maybe something nice will be planned to celebrate this.

Well, Live In Buenos Aires (the Butterfly package) is the only live album of the band that was also released on vinyl (correct?). Would be great if all their previous live albums (incl. LeftRightLeftRightLeft) get that treatment in the future as well.

My god, Jonny and Will look more and more like brothers now.^^

Think I remember hearing 'Yellow' and 'In My Place' long before I actually realized they're songs by Coldplay. I became a fan around the X&Y era.

I know this thread is a hundred years old, but here's something I just wanted to say. Think I recently found out that the ampersand and the liner notes are one and the same font, called ITC Serif Gothic. The ampersand is slightly modified but definitely is Serif Gothic as well. This makes me think the band might've cleverly used only two fonts for the whole X&Y album artwork.

Inspired by a certain Coldplay album I bought a luminous globe few years ago, set it to my hobby room and let it shine every night since then. :parachutes:

Sound

The discussion sounds to me like planning remasters of their previous albums (and releasing them in a box set or individually), and then decide if a deluxe edition (of each album or the one set) is coming along...

A 'trampoline'... To me that sounds like we jump back for a short time (that means re-releases of their old albums with lots of bonus stuff) and then jump forward again (new album, tour, etc.).^^

Coldplay's White Album?^^

For the new live album the band used the old and familiar Albertus font again. Maybe that has the visual meaning of 'closing the circle of chapter 1' but I hope they gonna re-use it more. I think the font is kinda part of their DNA.^^

My Top 5 might change every moment. So, here's one try.^^ 1. High Speed 2. Brothers & Sisters 3. Sparks 4. Oceans 5. Fix You
