still hunting that billie jean cover, in anything other than poorly shot youtube video... also, anyone thinking of recording the show? I would but i have no idea how.

oh man! i would freak out! does anyone have a decent recording of them playing it? in fact any mj song would be fine. i think they could do a slammin man in the mirror or earth song cover.

Hey guys! If anyone has the jamie cullum sheet music i would be forever grateful. I've managed to get one or two (twentysomething and these are the days) but not nearly enough haha i know theres some on musicnotes.com... im especially looking for: high and dry, lover you should have come over, mindtrick, photograph, among others... any help would be SO VERY MUCH appreciated!

the 42 reference isn't lost on me! played it as soon as i got up!

Does anyone have a scan of this? Looks like it'd be quite interesting... hopefully it will be like the earlier coldplay books and be what is actually played rather than the recent VLV/PM books.... [ame=http://www.amazon.com/COLDPLAY-SINGLES-SIDES-PIANO-GUITAR/dp/1423431553/ref=pd_sim_b_4]Amazon.com: COLDPLAY: SINGLES & B - SIDES (PIANO/VOCAL/GUITAR): COLDPLAY: Books[/ame]

This is where the Viva/PM books actually do come in handy: the chord boxes seem to all be accurate. Using those you can do your own arrangement, similar to Chris' "Acoustic Piano" versions. That's what I've been doing.

Also want to confirm: first is the piano book which is in the style that is popular these days: add the melody line instead of teaching you what the artist is actually playing (which is odd considering the first three coldplay books were are SHOCKINGLY accurate). its also for Lost! (you can find Lost? in the Prospekt's March book which is also on here, but be forewarned... it too is not all that accurate, especially when you get to the big octaves). The second one is the closest we've got so far. However personally I find it to be very poorly layed-out. If theres one good thing about the officially book its the larger notes, and chord boxes. The online book is harder to read (smaller notes) and doesn't have the big chord boxes. That said, it comes closer/closest to what you hear on the album. If only they'd do the PM book now...

I think I have that, the book from pianofiles or whatever... its better (closer) but im not sure its spot on. not to mention I wonder why the heck they're different...

thanks so much! though i wish the Viva/PM books were like the old books which (to me at least) seemed to be damn near EXACTLY what chris was playing (ie. mostly chords) these books however have moved into the popular route that sheet music has these days where they incorporate the melody line into the piano - which sometimes chris does, but usually not. other times they're just plain wrong (the piano solo bit in Lost? with the octaves is way lower than it should be - granted easier to play, but inaccurate). not that im not greatful! im so glad someone uploaded these, and its not your fault at all! just the arrangers...

well thank you! You can always do what i did, one for disc one and one for disc two. i'll probably make some more, in the same style for the other concerts (replacing the pictures behind the I with ones from the shows that the recording came from)

Glad you liked 'em. I figured I'd do two for disc one and two but didn't bother to label it as such on the art itself so that people could decide for themselves.

Album art for disc one and two.

working on some album art right now... trying to get photos from the show first.

i dont remember if i said thank you or not... either way THANK YOU SO MUCH! I finally have LIT II sheet music!

so is Elbow confirmed to be the opener? I heard a rumour that Postal Service was opening for a bunch of shows - which would be amazing if they did here too since they're one of my favourites! sadly I think we only get elbow... whom I've never heard of.

best advice: grab the X&Y sheet music book and modify whats written there. he's essentially just playing the chords that are listed there. its going to be tough to get it exact, it will take lots of time and practice but you can get pretty close.

Okay. I remember when I saw them last time Chris told us to take lots of pictures (it was the toronto show that was filmed for the DVD that never materialized and became the How We Saw The World special). I also know during the john mayer tour last summer he said the only thing to be warry of was the rules of the venue, if they don't allow recording equipment dont bring it. I wonder what the rules of Skydome (or Rogers Centre for the youngins) is like? I also hope someone who knows what they're doing records the show cause I doubt mine will be good quality...

Hmmm.... so im seeing them in the skydome in toronto... would LOVE if the dome was open which would make it amazing. but i doubt it will be.

So last summer when John Mayer was on tour he put out a message to all the fans encouraging them to record the concerts and send him the links, which he would then post to his website for all the other fans to download. I was just curious if anyone knows coldplay's stance on audio recordings of their shows. Do they allow it? Do they care? Will they disown you? Anyone have any thoughts? I'm going to the show in Toronto this july and would love to try and make a recording of it. I know nothing about doing so but figured couldn't hurt to try. Maybe we'll get lucky and someone who knows what they're doing will be going.

Im trying to find PIANO music for James Blunts son 1973 and Third Eye Blind's Jumper. If anyone has it that'd be great!

So i cannot seem to find the other musicians forum/thread BUT was curious if anyone has the piano sheet music for Jumper by third eye blind? I know its out there, but I could only find the guitar one (online for donwload)... which is useless for me since Im a pianist and hopeless with the guitar.

did we ever find out if that keane sheet music collection was the "advanced" or "standard" piano book?

i really wish that they would release the sheet music for the acoustic version chris did live as its fantastic!

Has anyone managed to get the sheet music for this? I know its online, but I dont have an account so I cant buy it... http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/scorch.asp?ppn=sc0119703 its also not for the acoustic version i dont think.
