Well, EP tracks are kind of b-sides since they are still unreleased tracks left of an album that finally get a release... I mean EP's are just almost like extended singles :)

That's just the promo release, I posted it earlier in the 'Releases' section when it was on Ebay. I'm sure the official release will have a remix. Plus the official single is only supposed to be via digital download.

Wow, that IS a big PIT... UGH, I hope Dallas' isn't that BIG!

Ooh the C-Stage - mmm that's not inconspicuous is it? :rolleyes: :laugh3: That looks like a HUGE PIT down there :stunned:

Mmm, the more I watch the video, the more I wonder if guy, will and jonny might show up in some form or another. Also, does the mix in the video sound different to the album mix?

^ Crap! :angry:

Oh, I didn't know they were all in the UK one :shocked2: but I haven't seen it in forever. I know they're all in the US one! *sneaks off to go and take a look* :escaping: Also, I don't care if the video doesn't have anything to do with the song, as long as it's creative and fairly original. I mean, most of Coldplay's video's have nothing to do with the song they are made for...

So, it has started to surface on E-Bay and is going for mucho bucks. Kind of nice it has an instrumental too :D Track Listing: 1. Strawberry Swing (Radio Edit) - 4.07 2. Strawberry Swing (Album Version) - 4.11 3. Strawberry Swing (Instrumental) - 4.10 Promo - CD-Single Parlophone 6840742 / STRAWBERRY001 (EMI) / EAN 5099968407421 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&item=130318760919 [thanks mrman78] 30 second clips: http://www.ultratop.be/nl/showitem.asp?interpret=Coldplay&titel=Strawberry+Swing&cat=s [thanks coldpatrix]

Well I guess if the other band members are not in it, it will only be, what, the 4th video with just Chris? I can only think of 'Yellow', 'Trouble (UK Version)', and 'The Scientist'. I was going to say 'Viva La Vida (Anton Corbjn Version)' but they all show up at the end :)

I had Section 102 Row EE aisle (the opposite side!) before they released new tickets and I upgraded to Section 102 Row H (two seats from right aisle) and sold the other. So I would go with any 102 over 107. The good thing about aisle is they will run by you on their way to the other stages. I'm hoping I can hop over the two next to me to get a high five! So I'm guessing it will be B-Stage when they run up the 102-103 aisle, and C-Stage when they run up the 102-101 aisle?

LOL, the masked Angie - fighting Coldplay naysayers one day at a time! Dah-Dah-Dahhhhh!

Wow, it looks really amazing. I'm looking forward to next week... It's going to be 'Coldplay Week' for me: Monday: 'Strawberry Swing' video Tuesday: Dallas concert Wednesday: Houston concert YAY! :dance:

Ok, so they have done that before then. Good to know. I have no clue how this is going to work, but as long as I'm IN the PIT, I don't think I really care WHERE! Yeah, that was when they cancelled the Houston show at the Woodlands Pavilion due to Rita. It was good for me though, since I didn't get tickets and had just got back from Summer back home and then they moved it to the following February at Toyota Center :) At least they finally get to play at the pavilion next week! Woohoo! ONE WEEK!

^ I doubt it will change other than the removal of "I'm a Believer" and the addition of "Billie Jean"

Yeah, everything is pretty expensive at the concert. T-shirts are around $30-40. A program is $20 or $25. The cheapest thing I think was a poster or keyring and it was still $10 or $15. I don't remember the exact prices, but they are pricey! It might be better to check online, that way you also avoid the crazy lines!

Apparently this is the first time anyone has done a PIT at this venue, so no one really knows! As far as how early to get there, it depends on where you want to be in the PIT. Personally, I'm not getting there until later and plan to be at the back of the PIT. It's just too hot this time of year to be in the heat waiting and then squashed against a railing.

The Woodlands Pavilion is set up to where you could probably sit, but I doubt you'd be able to see if you do. Most concerts I've gone to there, everyone stands in the front reserved seating at least. This will be the first one I've attended since the remodel due to the damage from Hurricane Ike, but it looks like it's pretty much the same other than the splitting of the rear sections and the new canopy over all the seats... I was up there this past weekend, and it looks really nice. The Woodlands has grown so much though! I remember when it really WAS in the woods! Now it's all built up around it with the waterway and all... It's still a beautiful venue though and I'm so psyched it's sold out since it will make it even better! Those people are going to bake on the lawn though, ouch! I'm so excited, just over a week to go!!! :chris::will::jonny::guy:

Yeah it's usually about 1 hour 55 mins. If they come on exactly at 9pm, they'll be done by 10:55pm. I honestly can't believe they got rid of SoS! I mean, it's one of their bigger hits. I can understand CSC since it's yet another VLVODAAHF track and it's yet another instrumental. I'm glad I caught it last year though, but I am enjoying Glass of Water and LiTii :) They need to promote Prospekts March too!

I believe, based on other shows, the b-stage is between the lower and upper reserved sections on the right (stage left) and the c-stage is on the lawn on the left (stage right)...

^:laugh3:

^ :P

That's what I'm planning to do in Dallas :) I think the volume of people depends on the venue...

LOL, why was Chris all up in Will's face for the first minute or so during Billie Jean?! Will was all like wtf Chris, get OUT of my face! :P

They usually say no children in the PIT, but I'm not sure if it's a concrete rule or just not recommended. I would think it would be more a visual thing since s/he may not be tall enough to see...
