SPEED OF SOUND

How lucky you all were at Birmingham to get those songs WOW mind you must not complain at all I was at Sheffield Saturday and we also got a surprise in the shape of Trouble one of my all time Coldplay faves. To everyone who is still waiting to see the boys it will be the best gig you will ever see. Can I take the oppertunity if you guys read any of the comments THANK YOU for giving me a night I ill never forget. Its also nice to read postings from fellow fans across the water giving really nice comments about the uk setlists

What a night at Sheffield Arena I was lucky enough to be just 8 rows from the front and feet away from the sides that they used. Like everyone else the highlight of the night just had to be Trouble (The first Coldplay song I ever heard) After that it had to be Fix You (Made the hairs on my neck stand on end) All you lucky ones that are still waiting to see there shows in the UK the wait is nearly over and believe me you wont be dissapointed if they are on the same form as last night at the arena boy what a treat!! What the heck some people grumbled about lack of changes in the set list but after a two year wait for them back on English territory (Excluding the warm ups and Brixton) I was more than grateful to hear anything. The down side had to be the support acts AFJNR what can you say about a bloke who comes on stage in an indian headress abd performes all the way thu with a plastic Captain America shield on his arm , two young lady backing singers doing occasional stupid dances and making noises (Oh!! was told it was singing) Then after that having to put up with 40 minutes of some DJ making just a load of noise which was totally and utterley pointless with even more pointless images on a screen. Stay in the bar till just before Coldplay come on save your energies for the boys YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED:laugh3:

I have it on DVD

I have recorded it on DVD for any one outside the UK all it will cost for a copy is the price of blank disc and p&p DONT AND WONT WANT TO MAKE ANY MONEY OUT OF IT JUST GIVE THOSE OUTSIDE THE UK A CHANCE TO SEE WHAT A GREAT GIG IT WAS:)

COLD PLAY LIVE BBC2 WED 18th June In case any of you in the UK dont already know Coldplay are featured live Wed 18th June on BBC 2 7pm - 7.45pm on a specially built stage outside television centre:)

Johnny Rotten and the Sex Pistols would not know music if it hit em in the face, they never had or never will be able to play music just load of inaudible noise our dog could make a better job. I just dont know how he can slam talented musicians or is it sour grapes that his load of has beens find it difficult to sell out a 200 seat gig

I think it has to be my fave so far on the album. It has to be the new albums version of Speed of Sound and that meant personally so much to me and I think this will. Dont get me wrong the rest of the album is amazing but cant get Viva La Vida out of my head:)

Sorry to dampen spirits but I have less than two days to wait Thurs 12th and getting mine on the way into work eeehhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Normally I hate the Winter nights but HEY what a way to brighten things up aggreed I think most people are happy today I know I am VERY cant wait till 12th June as I work for local government and have flexi time which means I can go into work any time upto 9.30 then I will be stood outside HMV waiting for the doors to open at 9am get my Copy of Viva La Vida and go to work a happy chappie:)
