http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=54395&page=5 I HAVE A REVIEW. I don't know what page it's on for you guys. Should be like 14 or something.

Lol wow...

Heh I really disagree with you saying Coldplay has any "filler" songs. Their set list is extremely selective, considering how most Coldplay fans have 10 or so songs that they wish they'd play. Glass of Water and Lost! don't translate well live? I guess that's just your opinion, but my feeling is that both of those songs are way better than they are in the studio (I hate the studio version of Lost!). Thanks for the review. I was at the mirror image of the c stage too! :cool: I was so ticked when Chris had to tell everyone the lyrics to Yellow so they could sing along. Thanks for the review. COOL STORY BRO :thumbsup:

Coldplay has the same basic setup for every show, watch any youtube video.

Nope, half due to laziness, half due to tiredness, and half due to my not knowing whether or not my mom's camera will connect to this computer. (Yes, three halves, got a problem?)

Yea, the songs themselves are pure Coldplay. Eno just adds in synths and atmospheres and stuff, all under the direction of Martin and Co.

I don't think Coldplay will/can ever make an album like Parachutes again. Because of the mega rock gods they are today, an album as simplistic as that one would be impossible to pull off. I like the analogy someone once brought up comparing U2 and Coldplay's first 5 albums. First 3 were a trilogy, and much more simple. On the 4th they both got really innovative and daring. Coldplay doesn't have a fifth yet, but U2's fifth is widely considered one of the greatest albums of all time. Hopefully Coldplay will be able to pull off a Joshua Tree.

I know right? He acts like he's 7.

Welcome welcome.

Where is that island? Overpriced would be a better word for it. Oh well, whatever floats your boat.

Ian owns this site. Regardless of your thoughts, we're living in a dictatorship, not a democracy. Your opinion does not matter when it comes to what Ian does.

Looks like a cool island, but I feel bad for you getting a macbook for your birthday. :\

Coldplay because I just got back from a mofuckin Coldplay concert.

Weather couldn't have been more perfect.

Grats niggy grats.

Idk, I think it's more of Coldplay changing themselves than Eno changing them. Mainstream success is everything? wow I don't think that's Eno's fault, once again. Once again, wow. /facepalm.

PIANO ROCK Well, at least in the AROBTTH era.

PS I will have pics up tomorrow.

We got there around 4:30, then headed over to the venue immediately. We arrived at the gates at 4:45. We were pretty close to the front of the line, and it really started to get packed once we got there. They ended up not opening the gates until around 5:45. I was one of the first 10 or so people in and we all sprinted to get our front row spots on the lawn. When I first got a view of the lawn I saw 4 or 5 blue tarps with security guards around them, not 1 like I was told. I gave it my best guess and ended up picking the wrong blue tarp. It ended up being the one with the tent over it, but I had assumed that area was for something else...I know, I'm an idiot. I didn't mind really though, because despite the fact that they were a third the price of my Verizon Center tickets for the past two shows, the front row of the lawn had a hell of a lot better view than those seats. Kitty, Daisy, and Louis were alright. That girl is really talented, but it's just not my style of music. Elbow was quite impressive. They sounded better live than they do in the studio. When The Blue Danube came on, the crowd was still yapping and not even paying attention or clapping or anything. Coldplay came on just in time, right at 9 o'clock, and that was when they finally shut up. One highlight was during a song (can't remember which one), Chris introduced Jonny as "the nicest man in the world...Mr Jonathan Buckland...he's 15 years old!". I laughed pretty hard at that, but maybe you just had to be there to find it funny. At one point, Chris asked if everyone was ready to be louder than they'd ever been on a Friday. The whole crowd yelled back "THURSDAY!". The look on Chris's face was priceless; he had no idea what we were saying. After the song was over Jonny pointed out to him that it was a Thursday. :P When Viva la Vida started playing, the crowd was at it's loudest. This really disappointed me, but it explained why the crowd was so weak. They were mostly newer fans whose first Coldplay song was Viva la Vida. When Coldplay started moving towards the c stage, there was a huge rush to get over there. I managed to get about ten feet away from the band in a big sweaty mob of teenagers screaming "OMG HE'S SO HOT!". (They were talking about me of course, not Chris) A lot of people started leaving after they finished Death And All His Friends. I couldn't help giving them the finger as they walked by. What a bunch of assholes. It's disrespectful to walk out when the band has two songs left to play. Even when Chris came back out to tell everyone about LeftRightLeftRightLeft, they kept walking. I was furious. I'm really glad they've gone back to playing The Scientist on piano. That's the way it was meant to be played. I haven't been a huge fan of Coldplay using pretty much the SAME set list for an entire year, but the addition of Glass of Water, Life in Technicolor ii, and Green Eyes helped keep things fresh. One thing I noticed tonight was that since I last saw Coldplay back in October, they've become a hundred times better. They've really got this routine down to a science. Viva Coldplay.
