The younger one was most likely Marta, she always starts the clap thing. Don't know who the older one could be :thinking:

Maybe it will be a combo of different shows, but yeah, I think either way we are getting one... BTW, they filmed both the Dallas and Houston shows too since I saw camera men at the front, especially in Dallas. So maybe they recorded all shows, and only recorded the above mentioned with a professional crew?

Oh ha, I didn't scroll over! I have never seen Mimi before, but I think I've seen Mel in some other pics, ha! That's a great picture though.

Wow, amazing story Tracey!! You totally deserved that after all the Tampa stuff. I wonder where Guy was, lol?!

That's Angie and Lori!

I know I'm printing mine out before I accidently delete it! :rolleyes:

I believe they did all graduate, but Guy, since I remember something focusing on that and that they made it a point to finish their degrees before starting their career fully... I think they were still taking classes during the early Parachutes stuff. Oh, and yeah, Jonny did do Astronomy. I think it was that and Maths? I did a minor in Astronomy :smug:

YAY! ANGIE!! Amazing pic (as usual) although I think you even bested yourself this time, that is crazy close!! Hope you had a wonderful time and look forward to the full review/pics :)

LOL, me too! I can't believe I was glued to this most of the day yesterday :dozey: Oh well, it was fun :dance:

YAY! Glad lots of peeps got emails! :dance:

Thanks for all the reviews and pics! We all had a great time here while you were there thanks to the photoblogs, live tweets, etc. Of course, I would have rather been there, but it was a close second :)

^ Agreed!

I wrote one yesterday right after the photoblog ended and the site refreshed - simple, but sweet: Like the new layout. Look forward to what's coming in the future! Thanks for all the memories so far! Marcus I loved your one though, Noemie, that was great!

WOW! Lucky!! I thought those medals were so amazing, plus they were given to them by the Queen! ;) HA! :wacky: That's the ultimate souvenier from the show. You are probably the only fan who has one! Aww, poor roadie though who lost it, but I bet they have extras and will give him another :)

Wow, today feels so weird now after yesterday! That was a crazy day, lol. I had so much fun in here!! The email form Anchorman was the perfect ending too! Thanks to everyone who joined in, and BIG BIG thanks to Ian for even making any of this possible!! :thumbsup:

AWW! :wacky: It nearly wasn't to be for ace drummer Will Champion - it is the job that has made him an international rock star who has played sell-out stadium shows all around the world, sold millions of records, won dozens of awards and earned a reported £10m, writes the Southern Daily Echo ahead of tonight's showing of the South Bank Show that features Coldplay. But now it has been revealed it nearly wasn’t to be for the Hampshire student who went on to be one quarter of Coldplay. For drummer Will Champion, who was born and raised in Southampton, was sacked by his bandmates before they had even released a single. Talking about the 1998 incident for the first time, the group – whose hits include Clocks, Yellow and Violet Hill – have revealed they blamed their percussionist when they were told they would never make it big. “We got signed and went to a studio and we were doing OK but this producer we were working with told us we weren’t good enough, we weren’t technically good enough,” said singer Chris Martin. “What bands often do in that situation is blame the drummer for going out of time or whatever. We didn’t really know that music is supposed to be about the feel of it, we thought it had to be technically perfect because we have a record deal now, so it ended up with us asking Will to leave. Three days went by and we were doing our thing and playing with a drum machine and stuff, but just felt really miserable.” Chris, who is married to Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow, said he had to grovel to convince Will to rejoin, which he only agreed to if the singer drank a large amount of vodka and cranberry to make him remember his mistake. And four multi-million selling albums later, he will tell viewers he hasn’t forgotten how stupid he had nearly been in a profile piece on the South Bank Show to be aired on ITV tomorrow. Father of three Will, 31, who went to Southampton’s Cantell School and Peter Symonds College in Winchester, says he is always sure the band remember how lucky they are to be in the position they are now in. Coldplay have just finished a 163-day world tour, which saw them play in 112 cities including London, Tokyo and LA. “Literally just before we go on stage, when we’re standing by the side of the stage, we just have a little moment,” said Will. “We all get together and remind each other of why and how we are in the position we are, and that it’s not an opportunity to be wasted, and then we go on. Every day we wake up knowing how lucky we are, but it drives us on to work harder.”

YAY! Sounds great!! :dance: Thanks for the pics, Ian! That was definately the place to camp out it seems rather than fight for front row. I can't wait to see what they go though, since there were quite a few Coldplayers there. I definately saw Angie, ha.

Ha, I was going to say it's the exclusive list of Coldplayers that Anchorman requested since we were in here as the blog happened and caused so much drama, so he rewarded us and we all get to meet Coldplay in a week! ;) :lol:

Yeah, I got left off again too! :rolleyes: That list was crazy since everyone kept posting and posting too quickly, ha!

Ditto! HA! That was crazy, getting that for 3 quid!!! :stunned: I have two copies of the original 'Brothers and Sisters' since I already had it, but then got one for free with another purchase on Ebay! I don't think they realised how rare it is...
