Will do my best! :D I have never seen them before and they are one of the bands on my list to see live before I die. :P Also keeping an eye out for them making their way to NZ...just in case.

Will there be an EP following Mylo Xyloto?
I'm starting to think that maybe there won't be an EP but they'll release LP6 quite soon. I don't know why I say that. Maybe it's because of the lack of b-sides and the comment Jonny made on Twitter...something tells me they don't want to give everything away 'cause LP6 will be near. Or it could just be my brain - which is craving for new material - making up silly stories to reassure myself. :P

I knew I hated Rihanna for a reason. :laugh3: Oh well. When it comes, it comes. After the whole waiting game with CB vid, I am not going to be checking Twitter, here and YouTube for anymore Coldplay vids. I'm just going to let them surprise me. :P

Linkin Park
Really looking forward to the next album. After A Thousand Suns, I have high hopes for Living Things. :D

Florence + The Machine
I agree! Even You've Got the Love (which I don't care much for in the album) was awesome! Dog Days was really good to, especially towards the end where she gets everyone jumping up and down for the last chorus. Loved it! I've been YouTubing Blinding and man, it sounds really awesome! Sooo wished she had played it! I now hope she releases a live DVD. The Unplugged one was ok but it's nothing compared to the proper shows she does.

Why no announcement from Coldplay? Strange.

Florence + The Machine
Florence + The Machine was EPIC. Truly. Cannot believe how amazing it was. Sure, I would be truly satisfied if she just stood there and sang the phonebook to me but I was blown away at what a show she put on. She was engaging, lively and bloody damn good. I had standing tickets so I knew I had to line up early in order to get a good spot on the floor. Around 430pm, a dude came out and asked those waiting outside whether we wanted to come and watch her and the band their sound check. HELL YES! You don't have to ask me twice! There were about 20 of us who went in and they played 3 songs during the sound check. It was great. We get to see her being human! She didn't have her onstage persona but was just herself onstage, joking around with the band and commenting on the set, etc. She didn't say much to us but at the end of the session she asked if we had any request. I yelled out Bedroom Hymns (one of my favourite song ever!) and after a few other requests being yelled out, she and the band played my request. I can't tell you how happy I was. BEST. THING. EVER. The other two songs she played were Breaking Down and Never Let Me Go. The risk of watching the sound check was losing our place in line but when we came out, the line didn't grow that much so in the end, I was standing behind about 4 'rows' of people and centre of the stage. Show itself was superb. I've heard many good things about her live performance but I was still blown away by her onstage persona and showmanship. I avoided any spoilers on setlists and I'm glad. Loved every song they played. Soooo glad they played Between Two Lungs!!! She interacted with the crowd, getting everyone to get on their feet and dance with her. She said she'll reward the craziest person in the crowd. So one girl got onto her friend's shoulder and took off her top! At the end of the song, Flo applauded her, got one of the band members to give the girl a kiss and Flo gave her a drumstick, which she kissed. Lucky bitch. She even commment on people right up at the nosebleed sections. A couple of fans had signs, right up at the back and she pointed it out and commented on it, engaging with those fans. It was really great to see her do that. Goes to show she really sees the audience. She didn't leave anyone out, pointing out people who were dancing in their seats or just being crazy - telling them how awesome they were and that she saw them dancing. She ran up and down the stage during the faster songs so she could sing at everyone at all corners of the arena. She made sure everyone felt included no matter where you were seated. Lovely. Bonus? She sounded as good live as she does on her CDs. Rabbit Heart was amazing live! I never knew! :laugh3: A little disappointed she didn't play Blinding but not surprised. No Light, No Light was epic! Great closer for the show (glad she didn't went with Dog Days). All in all, I had an epic time at the concert and I loved every minute of it. Worthed every penny I spent too.

Why aren't they releasing songs?
Meh. It seems so long ago, I hardly remember it existed! :laugh3: But 1 is not enough for an era this hyped up.
-
Why aren't they releasing songs?
The only thing I'm annoyed with this era is the lack of b-sides. No, not lack. NONE. I think we were spoiled during the X&Y and VLV era that no bsides during the MX time has got everyone a little angry. Lol. And since we've heard these songs for a long time (we pretty much heard the first half of the album before MX was released), I don't blame people for feeling restless for new songs.

Why Don't They Play Those Songs?
I always think UWTB would be a great closer for the show. Still holding out that it WILL happen. :D

2013 shows- where are Coldplay playing next year?
I'm waiting for an Asian tour and I'm thinking it will happen after they've hit NZ/Aus. I really hope they go to S'pore in Dec...If not, early 2013. :D

[10-Nov-2012] Coldplay @ Mt Smart Stadium, Auckland, New Zealand
Me too! I tried this morning just for fun and couldn't get any! Btw, can anyone tell me where the Gold Section seats are? I bought mine using the best available option. First time buying allocated seating so I have no idea whether best available is indeed the best available. Haha!
