Didn't Q call him the One-man Coldplay? It's more like the One-man Athlete

Nah, he says that all the time. And I mean ALL the time. Chris probably stole that line from Guy :P

Damn, weird as f*ck

Bump? Are you friggin' bumping on me?

Chris. I can't think of any other band, other than maybe RHCP, where the bass is so upfront and dominant.

Bellamy, hands down.

Clicky

Overall, Thom has the best voice. Or should I say 'had' the best voice? Surely he was peaking in the Bends-era, but by God... no-one came close! Nowadays he's been singing with either a very low or a very high voice. But he never lets me down. At least not yet. But... even Thom Yorke's not perfect. Matt has a special kinda voice. Instantly recognisable, and never off-tune. No doubt the most powerful voice here. However, it doesn't quite 'get' to me as Thom or Chris' voices do. Chris has a great pop voice, but we all must agree he's not the world greatest singer. He has good days, but also quite bad ones. To be honest, at times even I can sing like Chris, if I wanted to.

Y'all watch BBC Two tonight at 0:40 UK time (or 1:40 CET), mmkay? Oh, and Later... before that too.

I have both singles on CD. Nothing's impossible ;)

I think a greatest hits is inevitable, because EMI are money hungry wolves. Sure, they're great for promoting Coldplay (like, 6 singles per album), but what's with all the re-releases? VLVADAAHF is released for the 3rd time now (including DVD this time around). I mean, shit. Surely everybody who calls himself a Coldplay fan will already have all 4 albums by now? Either physically or digitally? What's the point in releasing a greatest hits already? I say, wait another 10 years.

Coldplay NOT chart? Mán, they have had hits in The Netherlands since 'Clocks'. I think every song charted, except for 'Fix You'. 'Talk' even went number 1. But yeah, Radiohead don't chart. True.

Weehoo! Just won the promo on Ebay.

He's already released 2 songs, you know... ('The Witching Hour' and 'The Ties That Bind Us')

Wonderful is pretty catchy and fun, but I've heard the album and it's quite a bore really. Too bad. Could've been a good new artist.

No, hasn't leaked yet. Which is surprising. Cuz I know people (at least 3) who've heard the album.

Yay! My 7" of All For The Best has already been shipped btw.

Macintosh, the first band supporting Coldplay on wednesday was Bat For Lashes. So now you know. Go and download some of her music.

Some exclusive acoustic material here: http://3voor12.vpro.nl/tv/#/41129552/42481733/0 Yes, new songs too.

Congrats! You are now a famous person. Dutch radio DJ Giel Beelen played the audio of this Youtube video is his radio show this morning. If you don't believe me, go to htt://www.3fm.nl/ and listen to the first hour of his show. I think it was around 45 minutes in the show.

Boy, they just keep on going don't they? If I were in a band I'd be sick of playing the same songs for 2 years straight. It's good for the fans that they tour so intensively and really play, well, everywhere. But it would be good for themselves to clear their heads from time to time, take breaks and make time to record new stuff as well. They even played The Netherlands 5 (!) times this tour. I mean, damn.

Don't know much about her music, but I do think she's cute.

13:15 I think. But to be honest, if I was there 2 hours later, I'd probably still have had that spot.

Thanks for the praise :P But yeah, I'm very happy with the pictures I took. Still need to upload some more pics. I only took out a selection for starters. Will post more as soon as I have time. Camera type is Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7 No big camera, if that's what you think. It's a pocketcamera. Not kidding you!

Here's some more pictures from the 10th: Really digging the first two. I think I might frame those soon, and hang them on my home wall of fame :P Got many, many more though...
