http://tweetphoto.com/13520849 la playera que se ve es de bat for lashes y hace rato no me fije pero en donde iria la etiqueta creo que esta la impresion de "official merchandise" o algo asi pero de ocesa el que parece ser un llavero depende, si es el de metal creo que igual y si lo trajeron, si es el de plastico seguro lo hicieron aqui, las calcomanias tambien son como para hacerse aqui, lo que no se que sea es lo que dice 200, no se si sea poster o tour programme o que _____________________________ sorry guys, its late and im feeling too lazy to translate, but its basically coldplay at a fashion show Apadrina Coldplay debut de Martha Cristiana como diseñadora Notimex (11:12 a.m.) La actriz presenta su colección "Dandy glam" para la temporada Otoño-Invierno 2010-2011 La afamada banda británica de rock Coldplay apadrinó el debut de la actriz Martha Cristiana como diseñadora, quien presentó en la Ciudad de México su colección "Dandy glam", para la temporada Otoño-Invierno 2010-2011. En medio de un fuerte dispositivo de seguridad y tratando de evitar las preguntas de los medios de comunicación, la agrupación comandada por Chris Martin arribó al desfile realizado en un conocido hotel de esta capital. Minutos antes de iniciar la pasarela, los integrantes del grupo estuvieron en el bar del inmueble y posteriormente ocuparon sus lugares para disfrutar del trabajo de Martha Cristiana, quien sorprendió con sus creaciones inspiradas en la dualidad. En la colección, que resalta la elegancia y la feminidad, abundan minivestidos, pantalones entubados, así como sacos y chalecos confeccionados con telas como casimir, conejo, seda y piel. Chris Martin, vocalista de la banda, no perdió detalle de la exhibición, la cual él y sus compañeros abandonaron poco antes de que la diseñadora saliera a agradecer y llevarse los aplausos. Antes de retirarse, Martin sólo comentó a los medios: "Estoy contento de estar aquí". Martha Cristiana dijo que desde hace tiempo lleva buena amistad con los integrantes de Coldplay, que se encuentra de visita en México como parte de su gira "Viva la vida". Al preguntarle si conocía la opinión del grupo en torno a su trabajo como diseñadora, la actriz señaló que aún no, aunque aclaró que al igual que ellos la apoyaron en esta ocasión, ella corresponderá con acudir al concierto que la banda ofrecerá este sábado. egc

en el twitter de ocesa pusieron una foto de la mercancia pero no se ve muy bien, hay cosas que bien las pudieron hacer aqui y otras que a lo mejor si trajeron ellos

some pics from the hotel

i guess the set will be the same as usual, i was really hoping a small change on the setlist considering they are playing twice on the same place, but who knows, maybe tomorrow...

two dates in mexico city, if they are going to make a change on the setlist i think its should be right now, i hope chris doesnt play billie jean

coldplaymexico Hay dos camaras de video a lado del escenario #fb http://twitpic.com/171js7 cameras at the stage, but i think those are just for the big screens at both sides of the stage

^ yes, but we dont know what for though haha

according a radio dj: Los horarios de Coldplay seran mas o menos asi: Le Baron 8:30pm / Bat For Lashes 9:15pm / Coldplay 10:15pm FYI it is 5:15pm right now

the first concert is supposed to be a sold out, but technically it isnt, they just stopped selling tickets when the second date was added my guess is that the shows will have like 54 or something on the first day, and like 45 on the second but for example metallica played 3 sold out shows on the same venue and some newspapers said there were 180.00 and some others were saying 155,000, so its really hard to tell exactly how many people will attend the shows

close to the 60,000, but i think that for Coldplays show there will be like 50-55, maybe less considering that there are still some tickets available for the second date

http://twitter.com/rockinmotion and probably the organizer too http://twitter.com/ocesamx

theres just one patdown; theres one point where the staff will check that you do have a ticket and that you are getting in through the right entrance; then you will have your ticket checked just to confirm its not fake and then it comes the pat down inspection i remember they used some metal detectors once but it was several years ago, i think they dont use them anymore, at least not on my last visits to the venue

haha yea i know, i guess he was waiting for the concerts to get closer

hey, the Radio DJ just uploaded the interview with Will, here you go http://s8552.gridserver.com/sopitas/EntrevistaColdplay.mp3

OCESA is the company in charge of the concerts in Mexico, this is their twitter account http://twitter.com/ocesamx usually they are updating the setlists as the bands are playing, i think they will be doing the same with coldplay

una pregunta para los que fueron al concierto de argentina...llevo algo el grupo de mercancia oficial? playeras, llaveros, etc??

just for the record, Don Quijote is pronounced something like Don key-ho-teh

they wont dub it, usually they just put the interview and at the end they will do the translation and talk a little bit about it. The worst thing that may happen is that they split the interview in several parts

It is Reactor 105.7 http://www.reactor.imer.com.mx/ theres a banner on the left that says ESCUCHA EN LINEA (listen online) the problem is that i dont know when they are going to transmit the interview. The guy who did the interview is Sopitas, his show starts at 6am and ends at 8am (Mexico City Time), so I guess its going to be during those two hours

Ocesa, the company in charge of most of the concerts in Mexico, interviewed Chris today. Originally it was in spanish so i translated it, i hope its clear enough. Tomorrow a local radio station is going transmit an interview with Will. O: How do you feel about your participation on a TV show such as the Simspons? CM: It was fantastic, that made us look more handsome than we really are. We are very thankful for that and being there felt incredible, we are fans of the show, it was lots of fun doing it. O: Did you have the ambition once of playing at big venues when you started the band? CM: That was always an ambition, you always have crazy ambition and when you are half way there you just let it go. It is incredible to see how little by little you have achieved everything that you have set as a goal. O: You’ve been helping Haiti, what more is left for Coldplay to continue helping them? CM: When George Clooney organized the Telethon we had the interest to help because the situation was very complicated for everybody; so we feel very thankful of have being part of that telethon and have done a donation too. We don’t have other way to contribute rather than doing the best we can for everybody. What is awesome is how quickly all the World has helped this nation, that is what is fantastic. O: What is your opinion about the legal issues in which you are involved as a band? CM: If you are part of a band, you know you are doing things right when the rest of the people start to feel uncomfortable with what you are doing. We only focus on the truth, we say the truth and we keep on going. We don’t worry about it, we know what is the truth. O: From the moment you wrote a song inspired on Frida Kahlo, the museum in Mexico city has received more visitors. How do you feel about it? CM: Its wonderful, just incredible, we cant way to go back there. O: Now that you are a huge band and you play on stadiums, do you miss playing at small venues? CM: Not really, the dressing rooms smell bad and are uncomfortable, but the new album is being recorded for us to play in small venues, but we don’t know if that is going to happen. O: Dont Panic is related with Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy. Has Douglas Adams work influenced your music? CM: I’ve never read that book and I think I should…as a matter of fact, the title of the song was taken randomly taken from the book. In general, a lot of books influence our music and that’s great. O: Natalie Imbruglia wrote a song for you and you said it was the best song she has every writen. What is your opinion about that? CM: I know it is a wonderful song, but it has not been finished yet and I’d like to know what happened with that. O: Have you thought on making a tribute to Frida Kahlo now that you are going to visit our country? CM: In certain way the whole concert is a tribute to her, maybe we will have an inflatable image of hers on stage. The reason why we are ending the tour in Mexico is because there it is were the idea of Viva la Vida came from, she influenced all of that work. O: Do you have any plan on keep on working with Oxfam? CM: They are always outside the concerts at the stands giving information. So yes, we keep on working with them. O: What is more important, being rich or being famous? CM: That’s a funny question, I think that what matter are the reasons why you are rich or famous. What I thank the most is having the opportunity of being part of this band, that is what is great. Fame and wealth are only a consequence, an added value. O: is there any place that you have planned to visit when you come back to Mexico? CM: We have been on the studio so we can be musically at a 100% for the shows, so we have not made any plans to visit any place. O: With technology and internet, have you planned on releasing an album on CD or as a download? CM: I think that eventually that will happen, but for the moment we will make a new record and we will think on a new way to present the album. I think that the best thing of music right now is the way you can get it, at the end of the day there is always somebody that likes to go to a store and buy records. http://www.ocesa.com.mx/backstage/entrevistas/chris-martin,-vocalista-de-coldplay/
