Hello all, Not sure where the best place to post this was (I'm a little out of touch with the forum these days!) Thought you might be interested... http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/threads/104003-Mince-Spies-CD-For-Sale Thanks, Mark.

Hello all, I haven't been around these here parts for many years, but here's something I thought you all might be interested in: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Coldplay-Mince-Spies-CD-/271742591366? It pains me to sell my original copy of the rare Coldplay release. It has served me well since 2001, but now I feel it deserves to go to a new Coldplayer's home! Any questions, then please feel free to contact me. Thanks, Mark.

"so, exactly HOW much money do the band get paid?" ;o)

I thought they played Talk at the buzz gig in Cologne on April 7th? Here's the setlist from that show anyway. Not sure where I got this from, think I saw it posted on here around the time of the gig! Square One Politik Speed Of Sound God Put A Smile Upon Your Face Warning Sign Talk X&Y Yellow Low The Scientist Til Kingdom Comes Clocks What If In My Place A Message Fix You I think 'The Hardest Part' will be this album's 'A Whisper', in that it'll barely get an outing, if at all. Think Chris metnioned that The Hardest Part has 'absolutely no invention' and its an 'homage to REM'! Or something like that!

they haven't played the song a great deal of times, not since very early Parachutes tour era; spring/summer 2000. They did play it in Australia in summer 2001 too come to think of it. As for extended versions, there's certainly not one recorded that I've ever heard of. Chris may ad-lib a little when he played it tho if that counts!

yeah I got it from some site like that too I remember. I'll keep hoping!

Hey guys, just wondered where I can download the Coldplay font from? I had it on my old computer but not this one. Cheers x

does anyone know where I can get the Albertus font from? I had it on my old computer but not on this one. Cheers for the help x

Hey guys, may be a silly question but I'm new to all this! I downloaded the Amsterdam buzz gig from the forum but have no ideahow to play it! Just wondered what program I need to use and where I can get it? Thanks for the help!

Streets of Baltimore is quite a rare song I've got, haven't really seen it many other places. That Dont Impress Me Much and Like I Love are pretty cool, but Chris only sang them during the middle 8 of Trouble and In My Place. I saw on a site a few years back that on their first every XFM radio session Coldplay covered Street Spirit?! Never heard of or seen about it anything since, but the guy said he had it on bootleg?! A guy called Scientist around 2002 on the official board. Oh, also got full band Gravity, 1.36 and A Whisper both live, a cover of Hungry Heart, a few versions of World Turns Upside Down, Warning Sign live acoustic a year before AROBTTH was released, a video of the first ever performance of Amsterdam in Sydney on 8/8/01 and Idiot, Murder, Lost Highway and God Put videos also from that gig. Chris sang the chorus to "All the things she said" by Tatu during Clocks at the radio one gig a few years back, think covered Shining Light by Ash too at some point, got that floating around somewhere. i guess this is the real 'rare' stuff I've got, I have pretty much all the stuff the other guys have mentioned on this post too

"I first got suspecious when she came into the room, not walking on two legs but flying on a broom"! Gotta love it! Didn't Chris 'write' it with Simon Pegg or something?

http://www.easytoplease.net has loads of setlists over from over the last 5 years or so, that site will probably be your best bet

:lol: by the way, that's a little odd...

I remember everyone one getting a little mental about Amsterdam not being on the US version back in 2002, but it proved to be bravado and didn't happen. Spies wasn't on the Chinese version of the album so I just guess that different countries get alternative versions; think of the Danish versions of Don't Panic and the Dutch EP live 6-track, everyone gets an advanced version. Even us in the UK get the album before the US guys, so we all just have to do the best with what we get! Good things come to those who wait and all that...

can I get it sent to me too please? [email protected] Thanking you x

i don't think that placing a song on a TV show 'devalues' the track or the meaning it has for people, certianly this isn't the case with a movie. You're right about Garden State, that's such a lovely way for the movie to open. I rememeber the 'outro' to A Rush Of Blood To The Head was used for the end credits of Six feet Under once and that was real effective too. Selling to ads is something I think the guys will never do, they've always stood by that point

Just saw on eil.com that 'Things I don't Understand' and 'Proof' have been selected as the b-sides for the new single! Gonna be cool to see what Proof sounds like with the full band, if of course they all play on it. Has any heard any ifno about 'Things I Don't Understand'? I guess it was dropped from the early album seesions?

I'm thinking that it may have became 'Swallowed In The Sea', what with the whole "water flows over" chorus line and everything? Although, its kinda hard to guess what with Debs saying that the lyrics have changed. Can't wait to hear the new Talk lyrics too

Hey guys, just wondered if someone could give me the web address for the official message board cos i can't seem to gain acess through the main site?! thanking you

they played the full band version at the Witness Festival in Ireland on 12/7/03 The setlist was; Politik God Put AROBTTH Daylight Trouble One I Love Don't Panic ENL Moses Yellow The Scientist Clocks In My Place Amsterdam Lips Like Sugar Gravity I think this is the nly recorded version of the song. It's quite a poor recording so difficult to hear Johhny's parts, can only really hear Will on Guy thumping along!

Hey guys, if anyone has these new tracks, I would be eternaly grateful if you could send them my way? [email protected] thanking you x

Hi guys, can't wait to hear Talk! could someone send it my way please? dying to hear it. Thanks [email protected]

could I grab a copy if poss please?!

i remember this happened on the offical message board prior to the last album's release. It was a few months before the album was confirmed and everyone kinda fell for it, me included! Guess it's the desperation! Could be the same thing again I guess, although I do like some of the track names, Fury and Blasphemy sound pretty hard
