So did you get that job after all? Or is it one of the other camps? Glad something worked out for you anyway.

Coldplay.com! It's back!! :D

It's always made perfect sense to me... extreme shock can do funny things to a person's head like causing them to wander around in a forgetful stupor or collapse eventually. What I don't get is what on earth a nice clean mattress is doing randomly lying in the middle of the street like that...

Wow... within about 24 hours both Radiohead and Coldplay finally break radio silence from the studio in a big way. It feels a little like Christmas! :wacko: :dance:

I like!!! :D So many little mementos and videos and things all over the place. The earliest stuff is great, like about signing the publishing deal on paddle boats (?! :laugh3: ) and footage from the laurel tree and stuff. Great to hear some of the older songs up too. And it sounds like Phil has come back to look after them, which is probably a very good thing. So much better designed than the last site function-wise, even if it could use a little bit of colour. Sooo nice to get something so personal for a change. I think I'm beggining to hope again.

^ Now there's an understatement. :disappointed: And an old pun :P

:stunned: Do you ever sleep? It's gotta be what? 5 or 6 in the morning there?

The coolest/most profound bit of graffiti I ever saw wasn't in a bathroom, it was written in whiteout on the back of a seat on the bus but it gave me something to think about the whole way home. It said: "God is not a control freak"

meh. You asked. So I guess you're welcome. :laugh3:

Apparently not. meh.

Ok.... *sigh* Eyes. Always noticed first. Morals and personality is always the deciding factor though.

Chocolate :wideeyed: True Shouldn't say such nasty things about dogs. :( The next poster likes traveling

I miss him. I may not have agreed with him alot of the time, but I still cared about his opinion on music stuff. He came back on to take his avatar and sig and stuff off a couple of weeks after he dissappeared last. Guess he wasn't planning on coming back at all... Maybe got annoyed by the Muse fans once too often?

Best cure for a bad concert: Ice cream, bubble wrap, and Muse. :nice: I'm happy again now.

In my case, it wasn't bands, it was hobbits- Dom Monaghan and Elijah Wood have to be two of the biggest music geeks on the planet (and both have reputations as amazing djs too). Reading interviews with them while they were filming LotR back in 99 and 2000 was the first time I was ever really exposed to the idea that there was more music out there than just what was played on the radio. I don't know if anyone else has ever heard Elijah babble on about what he's listeing to but it's scary. Twice as scary if you don't know anything about music. Oh, and what band did they mention the most back then- to the point that I really needed to know what it sounded like? Coldplay. The rest is history. :laugh3: The first concert I ever saw was the Newsboys. I still wasn't allowed to listen to any kind of rock or pop back then, but when my class found out about that big concert in Woodstock New Brunswick, it became the official grade 12 class trip, and not being one to miss a road trip I talked my parents into letting me go. Not being a person who listened to rock at all, it was a traumatic experience to say the least. I didn't know it was even possible for anything to be that loud, I didn't know any of the songs, and I probably wouldn't have been able to tell what they were if I had known the speakers were so overloaded. I just plain wasn't sure what was happening or why or anything, and no one wanted to be near that looser stick in the mud, so it was a pretty lonely experience. Funny that I'm such a concert junkie now all these years later after a disaster like that. :thinking:

Looks like photoshop to me... the head is the wrong size for his body, there's cut marks around his hair, and the lighting on his face is from the wrong angle. I'd say someone went to a lot of work for something stupid.

He's the only driver who hasn't made any sort of major mistake yet this year. He's been more level-headed than top drivers with tons more experience, and he's been coached by Ron Dennis himself since he was a kid. I think it's going to be him and Alonso fighting for first, and I don't see any reason he can't win.

Ha! I knew you were going to have said that the moment I saw that you had posted in that thread. Word for word. :smug: :dozey:

Pots and kettles. All black. Still pointless. Somewhere in there the old (centuries not decades) European superpowers got all these ideas that they were more civilised and ought to rule the world. America is just as much decended from them as the modern nationstates in Europe, and it inherited the ideals just as much if not more. The very terms 'first world' and 'third world' show just how blindingly entrenched these silly insulting ideas are. Fingerpointing really isn't going to help, especially with places like Hati so nearby. History shows time and again that own messes will most certainly not be cleaned up, so it's pointless to waste time waiting for it to happen. These are people, not spilled milk. And no, I don't think America should go in guns blazing in any way shape or form. Chances are the most recent messes in the middle east have soured too many people on REAL peacekeepers already. By the way, what rock have you been hiding under? Haven't seen you around in ages...

^ Who cares...the time for fingerpointing is long over. Fact is horrible things are happening, and more will if something doesn't change. I just wish I didn't feel so helpless. I think most of the world who dares glance there feels the same way.

What the! zfuflssgfrraar.... wow. :stunned: That was no ordinary update. If that's the cut stuff, I really want to hear what the kept stuff sounds like now. For anyone else who couldn't get through: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5cY2S8-eGs

July 2nd. *crosses fingers* No point in saying my birthday... waiting till April for a website would be murder. :thinking:

I'm really interested in the Creative Zen at the moment... but it will be a long time before I can get anything new. Still stuck with my poor messed up minidisk player.

Rain rain, go away... :sad: The dampness is making my ankles and all the little bones in my feet ache.

Hmm... so supposedly they're planning to work for so much longer, yet apparently Brian Eno is off in Morocco with U2 recording some new stuff... just found this: http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/search/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003596089 So what does that mean? Are Coldplay done recording and just mixing now? Are they taking a break? Did it not work out with Eno? I can't help but wonder.
