i was so tempted to check out mandarin oriental hotel...i mean, they were in nyc for seven days and had four days off... I just don't want to admit that i'm an 'obessesed' fan...if i actually did that, then i have no choice but to admit it. :lol:

:lol: :lol: ^oh, yes he is!

^yeah, i hope he gets it....well, i can't tell everything i wrote...a bit personal. lol, no i'm kidding...i'll be embarrassed to tell. But i signed it " From Coldplaying.com's favorite guitarist." i also wrote that we would be so grateful if the four of them could take a photo with the sign, 'we love coldplaying.com!" On a slightly different note, i wanted to start a thread about what hotel they stayed at in new york. (but i don't want to appear crazy even though i am :lol: ) i am almost positive that they stayed at Mandarin Oriental(based on Miller's tour diaries)...if they actually stayed there, then my goodness, that hotel was my gut instinct! I wanted to even ask on this board if anyone would join me. It's a good thing that i didn't try stalking b/c it wouldn't be a pretty picture. :lol:

i would buy the single if it exists in america!...i have to buy singles off ebay. I'm kinda happy that they haven't had a #1 single or a top ten video on TRL. there's enough coldplay-bashing for being so successful.

^you could see a bit of his underwear in that photo. :wink3: At the new york concert last night, when will was taking a bow and applauding the audience, i could see his stomach and underwear. i was so tempted to whistle at him! :lol:

^yeah he is...he was rockin' at the new york show! :kiss: to jonny

good to know i wasn't on the floor because i'm short and i'm sure some tall guys would stand in front of me. i was in sec. 211 and got a clear view of the stage...much better seats than i expected. i thought i would only see jonny and chris. only problem with section 200s is that most people are new fans who have only heard x & y. people started sitting down. i thought i would feel self-conscious being the only few people standing, but the guys bring so much energy that it's hard not to give that energy back. please come back to new york in early 2006!

well, i sent jonny a birthday card tonight at the new york show..i gave it to one of the workers there. he said he'll go backstage to give it to someone who can give it to jonny, but there are no guarantees...hopefully jonny received it and follows through with my request! Please jonny, please!

well, i wasn't there for the first night, so i can't make comparisons. the setlist was the same though, except they played don't panic instead of green eyes. when they started playing don't panice, i was the only person in my section that screamed with joy...some people in front snickered, but i dont' care...it's such beautiful song! Chris said that one of their goal was to have their own wax at madame tuscands in new york, but they won't melt down the backstreet boys! lol Chris dedicated the scientist to the victims of katrina and said, "some people think it's offensive when we talk about it because we are not americans, but what happens in america affects us all, so to those people, 'fuck them!'" Chris took back what he said about mariah carey the first night and said something along the lines of " don't listen to me, i'm an idiot..." lol during in my place, chris went over to guy and sang, "guy please don't go solo" and gave guy a kiss on the cheek. awww! There were alot of interactions between the guys; you can feel their chemistry and energy..it's so lovely to see. the concert was a good length...an hour and 45 minutes, but it felt like only ten minutes! one thing that's upsetting is that my cousin forgot to bring her camera...we had a very good view of the stage, we could have taken some nice photos and shared it with you lovely people.

Please stop generalizing races, religions, politically parties, etc.

a :kiss: to chris for his hurt feelings.

thanks, girlygirl for the pics!

bart, i respect your opinions, but i don't believe in generalizing the fate of the world on one man. Now, i am not a republican or a bush supporter, but i think it's easier said then done. I don't know enough about politics to place judgement and i don't think others should do it unless they are in the situation.

Ahh, i remember those days in high school AND college. I miss those days...sad, but true.

^what section is the lighting box?

I don't know about Live 8, but jonny's g-friend was at Glastonbury. her picture is on getty images if you type in 'Gwyneth paltrow'...i would post, but i don't know how to post.

well, i've read that Gwyneth wanted to live in NYC and Chris wanted to live in London, so they chose L.A. (if that makes sense)

rap and hip hop has gone down the drain when Tupac and Notorious B.I.G died and Dr. Dre turned to producing...Jay Z is the only decent one around. and i like snoop dogg just 'cause he's quite a character.

stop bashing on Justin! :( N'Sync was terrible, but i like his solo album. The boy can sing and dance.

*prays that someone from this messageboard or coldplay.com m-board catches the cameras after sept 7* If i remember correctly, i think i've only seen two sets of photos. Since i don't want to risk it, i think i'll add in the card for one of the crew members, PA, or management to go on this site and post it.

yes! My local newspaper has a copy of Life every Friday! :)

Oh, that's awful and completely illegal unless his dad's girlfriend was 17 at the time, which i doubt.

Johnny Cash! (are names allowed?)
