my thought was "Julie telephoned in by a ouija" so looks like we're on the same track! but i also thought it might be weird for Chris to suddenly give a "character" in the song a proper name who is fictional and not someone that lived in our world :shrug: but he definitely mentions ouija, my interpretation is that this person puts out a message for advice and gets an answer from the Holy Roman army :P

so I was away for a few weeks to visit my sisters for the holidays, but came back last night to find a package from @greeneyes1207 ! got a lot of goodies and a little monkey ornament (to represent AOAL hehe) plus learned that we have quite a lot of non-Coldplay things in common too :cheesy: by the way, i already ate like half the package of short bread and it is DELICIOUS thank you so much for the package, kaleigh! :hug:

those particular butterflies (and the star) are indeed from the AHFOD tour, San Diego show in October 2017 :D the MX era did have butterflies, but they were the same white and neon yellow/green/pink that the rest of the confetti in that era was - at least in the US. but the colors for the AHFOD butterflies are actually pretty similar to the ones from the VIVA era, just the VIVA era also had ones that were a kind of foil-like material in addition to the paper-y ones i'm glad the card got to you so quickly!! i was afraid i was pushing it with how late i sent it :P

I knew Yellow and Clocks, but I didn't know that I knew Clocks until after. I thought that piano bit was like a classical piano part [emoji23] I mean to be fair I was 12 so

i should be able to make it! now just to set a reminder :P

besides, even some Netflix originals HAVE been released on DVD. i don't see why they would go through the trouble of making something this huge to only ever show it on one streaming service for the rest of eternity?? just think how even with all that struggle, they managed to put out such an incredible album AND keep themselves together for another 13 years at least!!

Roadie: My Life on the Road with Coldplay by Matt McGinn is a great book, too and let's not forget the best officially unofficial book of all :joy:

how soon is now, only how long is never? :p

welcome to coldplaying! :D

one of my favorite moments like this: starting at 1:28

i would honestly be surprised if ANYTHING Coldplay-related were to ever happen in that theater, if not only because i feel it wouldn't have been only Chris's purchase in that case

always nice to hear a live version of VLV where Chris is singing the actual melody from the studio version :P

nope, i was still in my hometown in NY back then and my first concert wasn't until 2009 in Massachusetts :D

i can never listen to this song without thinking about Guy now :joy:

looooooooove Jonny's guitar here, it's kinda creepy but awesome at the same time
