Zincubus

Fair comments _ I was so VERY , VERY angry but luckily I noticed an empty seat a few rows in front of Mincing Milly and enjoyed what was left of the gig ... in saying that , I still think the sound engineer made mistakes on thursday night - the sound was too distorted for my liking - it sounded like Phil spector's Wall of Sound !!!!

Are we talking about the same gig - Thursday ??? If you enjoyed that gig .. my gawd you have just GOT to see Incubus when they next come to the Uk !!!!

......

Thanks for that video !! I missed it on Thursday because some thoughtless , Alan Carr wanabee , was mincing his night away - directly in front of our family . He was in block 206 , half way up in seat no 5 ! You know who you are - HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME !!!

[quote= On the 11th I was in block 104 and only 4 seats from the acoustic 'platform' as I call it, and everyone in the block was standing and really into it, the 2nd I was in block 106, further back and not so close to 'the platform', and most of the people near me spent most of the night sat down, which made me feel quite sad, but I never sat down and never stopped clapping and singing!! !!!!! Don't suppose you paid any thoughts for the poor souls who were SAT behind you and who paid a lot of money to SIT !?? Don't suppose you ASKED the people behind you if minded you dancing in front of them ? Just wondering what goes through the minds of people like yourself BEFORE you decide to BLOCK the view of at least 3 or 4 people SAT behind you - not to mention all the rows of people further behind you , who get to see some thoughtless person's backside jiggling about , rather than see their beloved COLDPLAY !! Do you realise how distracting it is when just ONE "person" ( see how restrained I am ) is dancing around in the field of view of about 40 other fans !!?? I may sound a bit "tetchy" but that is because some small minded "person" in block 206 , half way up in seat 5 ... basicall spoilt our whole family's evening -by standing up and mincing his way through half of the concert - mmmm ... did I mention that he reminded us of Alan Carr ( in more ways than looks ). I have a bad back ( violins playing) and so I can't stand at concerts -this is why we always choose SEATS ... and usually high up to AVOID the "dancers ". Even if I was ABLE to stand I simply could live with my guilt of spoiling the view of some innocent person behind me.!!

AS I said previously - I think they got the sound levels wrong on Thursday - but it sounds like they may have lowered them somewhat for Friday ... won't bother going to anymore Coldplay gigs though ... not paying £150 ( two tickets) to listen to an hour and a half of distorted, wall of sound .... maybe Phil spector was in control of the sound levels !!

Jees I thought we were MASSIVE Coldplay fans until I visited this forum !! Hey -I wasn't trying to upset or wind anybody up with my comments - this IS a forum and as such I expected to be able to air/share my thoughts . I still stand by my tcomments that the overall sound was DISTORTED .... maybe we have been spoilt by the crisp , clear , CD quality of Incubus gigs !!?? Anyways , no hard feelings onmy part anyways .

We paid £150 quid to see his fat ar*e mincing around !!

Right .. where do I start !!! Firstly , we LOVE Coldplay and all their songs BUT have to say we were very dissappointed in the Thursday M.E.N. concert !!! They seemed to be showing their b*lls by playing so very LOUD ... we were at the far end , block 205 just above the section where they did that short acoustic section - it sounded all wery distorted to be honest. We saw Incubus from the same seats last year and there sound was co blear and clean compared to Coldplay !!! Also , other venues had Girls Aloud or JayZ as support and we got some unknown/ unsigned band .. A have to complain about the the selfish , inconsiderate couple in front of us - Block 206 - THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE !! - sat in seats 5 &6 about halfway up - row J or something. The bloke looked and acted like a camp Alan Carr clone and stood up , mincing his way through my fave songs ....starting with YELLOW .... everybody else remained seated apart from these two idiots !!! I don't normally resort to violence BUT lat night I was very tempted !!!!!

How you see the world or things I don't understand - -I would have put them both on the X & Y album !

The fact that they left How You See the World off the album ! - they put it on the export album ( Japanese - I think) also I would have liked to see Things I dont understand and even proof added to the album.

Careful where you stand or How you see the world ( Why did this not make the X & Y album ? )

I reckon that if I took ALL of Incubus's AND Coldplay's songs onto a desert island I would be happy as larry ! :) As long as all their NEW material was shipped out to me :)

I found it on LIMEWIRE.
