Lol I wasn't being mean, I was just saying... haha.

Are Simon Pegg and Stephen Fry the only famous people you know that are from the UK? :P why would it be Stephen Fry?? he lives nowhere near Liverpool, lol.

it's not Jay-Z. he wouldn't waste his time for a fifteen minute slot. I'm tellin' ya, it'll be John Bishop.

it's a fifteen minute slot, what the hell would Simon Pegg do by himself? My money is on John Bishop! stand-up comedian from Liverpool who's rise to fame this year has been outstanding! heard it here first! :P

I was boring and asked if they'll be playing new material. nothing crazy like you nutters! :P

oh hey, it works. I had no idea (I'm on a mac, too...Lol)

Oh hai Phil. You knowz uz too well. *Note: I'm not really grammatically challenged.

The venue was confirmed at 9am this morning via text message. I got mine anyway saying it's the Tyne Theatre.

No there's not. it snowed a bit last night but it's all cleared now. still take wellies because it seems to be inconsistent with the weather report up here.

which is funny, because didn't somebody with VIP tickets post yesterday that they bumped into Chris in Liverpool?? You'd think that the gig would go ahead without Phil of all people anyway.

Thanks. I'd take some photo's but I imagine that R#42 has a far superior camera! :P

ofcourse, Like I could miss out on them doing an intimate gig in my hometown!?? Lol. I'm stoked.

Guys.... guys.... seriously? fighting on the internet? you're both nice guys, lets not cross the line from 'Banter' to 'Malice' :)

The best thing about going to the Newcastle show is that we'll know the Setlist when the Liverpool lot come back or post during the show. :D

To each his own, but Chris' voice was well off the mark. he was out of tune on more than several occasions and it ruined the performance. Compare it to him singing note-perfect on LRLRL. Kind of reminded me of when they first started touring for VLV and his singing was awful too. he takes a while to warm them vocals up! :P

Get yourselves to the Metrocentre in gateshead - it used to be the largest shopping centre in Europe until a few years ago and they built bluewater. The centre of LIFE is right in the citycentre next to Newcastle Central. The Baltic is an Art Gallery which is completely free and there's a very swanky restaurant on the top floor, plus it's right on the quayside where all the nice restaurants are. There's not really a lot to 'Sightsee' but these are a few places that are in the citycentre and worth visiting. You should also take a walk down Northumberland street, which was voted as one of the top ten streets in Europe for it's Architecture. Oh and there's the Angel of the North, but that's a bit shit, really... hah.

You didn't miss much; the performance wasn't very good.

I agree. Tevez is a top player, but you can replace him easily (though you don't need to with Adebayor and Balotelli)

I am unbelievably easily pleased :laugh3:

No no, I like it; I just love the second half of the song so much that I can't even listen to the first half at all anymore. I normally skip to the good stuff :D

Politik is the greatest piece of music they've ever created. well, from about 2:52 it is. ha.

The Tevez story is interesting to say the least. The way I see it, City have two options. 1) They sell him to the highest bidder with no room for negotiating, because... 2) If they don't, he can buy out his contract, it'll be no skin off his nose to fork out a few million and I don't believe any of this nonsense about him 'quitting altogether'. See the problem is if he is THAT DETERMINED to go, and say, Madrid make an offer of £20m and City are like 'Well, we want £40m' or however much they want, Madrid have the legroom to say 'No way' then when nobody comes in with a higher bid, Tevez will resort to the latter option. I'm glad that City have got themselves into this mess, I don't dislike them as a club but I despise what they're trying to do to achieve the league title. EDIT: does anybody else love that my post count is 4,321?*

so seriously, chances of hearing new music? I'd like to say we will, but given the crazy EMI protection of 'Christmas Lights' I doubt it.

I am shocked and appalled at the amount of people being knobheads to the OP who came here for help and out of their own admission knew nothing of the band. Just because you're a fucking fanboy/girl doesn't give you the right to rip people apart who don't sit on forums all day long! jesus, you're pathetic. oh sorry it's COLDPLAY not COLD PLAY - who gives a shit? have some god damn respect and stop making this community look like it's full of neanderthal fans who think they're better than the rest of the world who don't spend their lives here. They're weren't even trolling. seriously, WTF? get a grip and grow up.

Peepz in the house need to tit's or GTFO if they're criticising what was a raw and honest stripped down performance. It was recorded on a phone for chrissakes.
