is this the concert thats on radio 2 right now? sounds awesome

Chris hates speed of sound? why? its a great song, ive always wondered why they never play it live.

theyre becoming a kiddies act now tbh, but its the kiddies who rule the charts these days so maybe thats who theyre aiming at

Their xfactor performance has definitely helped them sales wise over here in the UK. Paradise is second on itunes, MX number three. But Paradise has been in the charts for ages in the uk and i dont really understand why tbh, its not that great of a song, its no where near their best but its spent more time in the charts than any of their previous singles i think.

Ive lost a bit of respect for coldplay for going on this tripe. they are going in a kiddies direction. Next, theyll be releasing an album full of nursery songs

Will they extend the running time of the show to include more songs or just replace MX songs with songs they had in their previous tour? As I really hope they dont sacrifice Politik, or worse yet, sacrifice The Scientist or FIX YOU for not so good songs on the MX album. That would be scandalous surely. Also i hope they include Life is for living as the live version is different from the album version

told you lol, it was easy for me to get tickets for the presale for this event whereas all the others sold out very quickly

ah okay, thanks, it did look like to me when i was watching it on tv that most of them didnt even know the songs lol. but it wouldve been better if they performed their classics like fix you or yellow, these two new singles are starting to get tiring. Thanks, good that you had a good time though.

Did it look as bad as it did on tv when the crowd didnt really react to the first two songs? Cos it seemed like none of them were singing along to ETIAW or Paradise and looked bored. It looked edited on tv, so did they do anything else?

It was ok, i only said ok because the new singles dont do it for me. even the crowd were not really getting into the first two songs, but viva saved the night. I was hoping they would do fix you, that should end any concert. Or maybe they couldve done the back for good/scientist thing they do, he was about to do it then stopped lol.

what the hell?! shouldnt he be in the hospital?!

damn it, just remembered this now lol, have coldplay been on yet? i hope not, i did predict yesterday that they would come on second last and then be joined by gary barlow for back for good

ok thank you, but isnt sitting in the lower tier and standing better than sitting in the upper tier because the general admission tickets were cheaper lol. ah, yh it probably was £25. ill just get it on the night i guess

Yeah they were selling these at £28, not sure if it is available on friday but its best to just check it out anyway. I got general admission tickets, and apparently we can sit where we want? but what if we end up choosing seats that have already been booked by someone else? Also, have the support acts been announced?

What about the stadium tours next year? I think some of the bands mentioned like snow patrol and keane are too big to be any support act, i think. Rihanna definitely wont be a support act, I just cant see it. I personally think it will probably be take that seeing chris' connections with gary barlow and gary already saying that he would love to be a support act for coldplay. Or maybe cheryl cole(I hope not) or tinie tempah. It will be some pop artist though i reckon. Im hoping its someone like the vaccines or the mumford and sons.

I got my tickets for this via the presale thing :) I think this one was the last to sell out, i knew it would be anyway, so thats why i managed to get a ticket, all the others when i looked at it at 10am were sold out. If everything goes well, i should finally be seeing this great band next may :)

Coldplays album has taken a bit of a tumble down the UK charts to number 6. my prediction is that this is the last week it will be in the top 10

Thank you. much appreciated. Im guessing ill have to wake up at 9am on the dot to get tickets as they will sell out fast lol

Question: Im an o2 customer. How do i go about getting priority tickets? P.S. I want them for ricoh arena not emirates, but no-one is on that thread so thought i would post it here.

DLIBYH is defo not single material. charlie brown shouldve been the first single. Paradise and ETIAW just dont cut it for me

Nah, I dont think they will do a stadium in birmingham, Im hoping though that they do NIA or something. But if nothings announced within a week, then Ill just end up trying to buy these

Ive heard that MX is not selling well after the first week. Its expected to drop out of the top 5 in the uk already and is sliding down the charts in the US. Some fans(of Adele) even have the cheek to say its embarrasing for coldplays standards

Is that it then for the UK? Only those five shows? What about the arenas? Five shows for the whole of uk doesnt exactly seem like a lot!

Yayyyyyyy, about time lol. I live in birmingham which is 30 mins away from coventry, so I might buy tickets for these or wait until they announce a show in birmingham

It would depend upon what type of music the other person likes (e.g. slow paced songs, fast paced songs etc.) But my five would have to be The Scientist Yellow Fix You Viva La Vida Clocks
