Do they still empty it out after every gig? I thought they stopped doing that? Can anyone confirm this? If they still empty it out, I guess it wouldn't make any sense to queue in front of the (main) entrace gates in the morning to secure a good spot at the front?

I'm willing to bet against it. :P If they want to include fireworks in the intro again, they'll have to play it later in the set.

Ik neem aan dat het dan toch nog gewoon op BBC te zien zal zijn zoals elk jaar?

Yeah, I had heard it before. But live it sounded immense! Did you see the video of the original song? Some very weird stuff. :P This Oasis/Beady Eye talk is bringing this discussion so off topic.:laugh3:

The day after the gig, I just had to pick up my guitar and play that cover. The riff sounds immense!

I really don't think it's a good idea to go for front row at Werchter. The stage is so high that you probably won't be able to see Will (or Chris, if he's behind the piano). And the crush can be HUGE. You always see loads of people faint. And you'll be fighting to retain your spot the entire day (especially right before they come on and at the beginning of the Coldplay set). If you want to be front row, the front row of the second barrier is a much better spot. It gives you a better view of the entire stage, you're still close, you have an unobstructed view and you're in the middle of the atmosphere. The sound is also much better.

I was standing a bit to the left, about 10 rows deep. We got there a bit late. Missed the first couple of Miles Kane songs (who was great as well). I LOVED that Sons Of The Stage cover song they did at the end. Didn't know the orginal, but it rocked hard!

Stop reading any further if you don't want to be spoiled with stuff about the setlist. But wow, I'm so excited after seeing this clip (with horrible sound) from the festival gig they did yesterday. I can't believe it's been nine years since I last heard this song live. I just got goosebumps listening to it.

It is!http://www.pinkpop.nl/2011/pinkpop-media/

I've never been to Pinkpop on a Saturday, but I can imagine there will be quite some traffic jams since it's the first day. I'll try to get there early (around noon probably). I still haven't decided whether I'll immediately head for the main stage, since I also wanted to see Manic Street Preachers (they finish at 5 pm).

Ah, oef, ik zie bij de YouTube omschrijving net het volgende: coldplay new single 2011 every teardrop is a waterfall chris martin jonny buckland guy berryman will champion peter allen i go to rio Ik neem aan dat ze dan wel toestemming hebben om dat riffje te gebruiken. :)

Geen topnummer vind ik. Maar het zal ongetwijfeld wel een enorme meestamper worden op de festivals. Met die discobeat (basdrum op elke beat) eronder is het echt gemaakt om op mee te klappen. Maar het klinkt toch wel iets te cheesy.

Behalve die éne love seat van jou, blijkbaar nog geen tickets verkocht. :P Shiver op BBC Radio 1 nu. Kippenvel!

Damn, is er ooit al een betere brugdag geweest? Stralende zon, hoge temperaturen en een nieuw Coldplay nummer. Sterkte! :P Trouwens de max dat je op 't werk niet op Facebook kan, maar wel op Coldplaying. :)

Da's nog een idee. :)

Zijn inderdaad de data dat ik Coldplay gezien heb. Komt wel wat 'stoeferig' over, I know. :)

De love seats. :love: :P Wel zwaar relaxed natuurlijk. :) Dan wordt het wel nog niet zo makkelijk om in de buurt te zitten vrees ik. Tenzij ik snel nog een date vind. :laugh3: Ik vraag mij trouwens af of ze het nu nog op BBC zouden uitzenden (zoals voor Glastonbury al jaren de gewoonte is voor de headliners).

Ik zou ook naar Gent gaan. Als er nog mensen van coldplaying gaan kunnen we misschien afspreken om tickets te reserveren in de buurt van elkaar?

Yeah, I went to the Beady Eye gig as well. I thought it was pretty good actually! He could have taken the easy way out and play some Oasis classics, but I guess it was good that he didn't (even though it would have sent the crowd into a frenzy). It was a great rock n roll show in its own right. And Liam was really into it! I'm sure you'll see Oasis again someday. They just have to do some kind of reunion in the future. It has to happen. But enough off topic stuff.:\ Who's going to prepare for Werchter at the Kinepolis Coldplay @ Glastonbury screening that was just announced?

Hehe, those are about the only Werchter gigs I remember as well from last year. And even those gigs were not too memorable compared to other 'phonics and PJ gigs. Oasis fan! Was mad enough to go and see their final Manchester gig. Judging from your nick, you must be a fan as well? That's actually my fav Oasis song.

Yeah, it does. I even checked my signed 'goodies' from that legendary evening after I saw your avatar. They had been collecting dust. I really should frame them one of these days.

Yeah, the full band version!

Cool avatar, gretel. :P
