Okay thanks, I knew that some station played it ahead of schedule.

I know iTunes has a feature where it will let you buy a full album at discount if you've bought some of its songs through previous releases before. With a physical release, though, you're out of luck. Well yeah, they know Coldplay is basically the one thing that's kept them afloat.

Didn't some French station (or some other European station that wasn't BBC) break the rules and premiere ETIAW like 30 minutes before anybody else anyway? I won't be surprised to see something like that repeat.

:facepalm: I was going to make a lengthy post about how pre-album EP's drop all the time and how most digital markets don't make you buy the same song twice in those instances, but the above emote basically takes care of everything for me.

Oh good, I'll actually be awake for this one. Also, I hope you people listening to rips will get a digital purchased version eventually, merely because a radio clip may cut off the beginning or end a bit or have their respective obnoxious host talking over the intro like they always do.

You guys are clearly bored as hell and would be making better use of your time making polls like "Will the physical album be available in jewel case or cardboard?" or "If every teardrop is a waterfall, then what does that make every waterfall?" or "How many hairs are on Chris Martin's head?" BTW, my vote goes toward it being a B-side so that you all look dumb. :P

The Arctic Monkeys joke was made up because AM are playing the same festival. That is all there is to it. :P

This requires me to stay up until 2:45am, which rarely happens. Maybe I'll catch a midnight premiere of Cars 2. That would give me the PERFECT excuse to be up that late, and I'd be back in time for the song premiere! Or I could just catch it when I wake up in the morning like I did with ETIAW. In retrospect with how much I detested and still detest that song, that was totally the right decision.

Probably the arctic monkeys. Not the band. Actual fucking monkeys from up north.

Coldplay? More like Oldgay. *continues to be ticked off about having to choose Muse over Coldplay at Lolla*

Psssh, I got tickets for that days ago. Also, I'm hell-bent on meeting Dom there. That place only has a 260-person capacity anyway.

Banter is The Lounge on crack.

http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/u2/2011/angel-stadium-anaheim-ca-63d31217.html Looking at fan feedback, this was apparently the most random setlist all tour.

So yeah, I totally just got "The Fly" at last night's show. :D But as a more casual fan who doesn't constantly keep up with their setlists, I was more like, "Oh cool, it's The Fly, I love this song!" I didn't realize it hadn't been played in so long or that so many hardcore fans have been wanting it played for years. In fact, I probably cheered far more for "Ultraviolet". :laugh3: Great show all around. These guys still have it.

VICTORY. :D I will say that since "Showbiz" is my 3rd favorite Muse song, I will miss your current name a lot.

Yeah, if they intend on using those giant portraits that I saw in videos of their Manchester show, that probably requires a larger stage.

^ I saw that a few minutes ago and choked, just because it's so freaking true. Also, Christina, go for "Megalomania". I'm not just saying that because it's my favorite song of the bunch, but any non-Muser on the forum will probably think "Hoodoo" sounds dirty. :laugh3:

It's not an arena show, though. It's in a theater. Nobody knows who Elbow is here (massive shame) so I'm surprised they're even playing in a venue that big. Two years ago, they played to 2,000 and had trouble selling it out. Arens shows here sell for $75 MINIMUM. I've paid over $100 for some.

That's okay, more cuteness for me. :P

IKR? ;) She's a goddess of talent and sexiness. Meaning I can wipe it off so I can enjoy the rest? :P

This list may not have been that funny, but it was probably funnier than whatever joke Coldplay was aiming for when they wrote and released ETIAW.

A) Wasn't saying the art style was BAD, just incredibly colorful. :laugh3: (which isn't great, but isn't BAD) B) Florence is hot. I could fanboy over her for days.

Two things: A) It'll be one of their Top 5 albums, guaranteed. B) We're gonna need some confetti cake if the LP5 art style is any indication.

I wouldn't expect anything less from the Coldplay fanbase. ;)

GUYS. We DON'T KNOW if "Major Minus" will be a double A-side or merely a B-side. Double A-sides before full album releases happen ALL THE TIME. Don't freak out. :)
