Jonny was quite late on In My Place today:D

Chris: Servuuuuuuus München!:lol::lol:

Concert will be delayed by a few minutes. But we won't miss anything. Let's see.

Last song Marina and afterwards the concert.

The German public radio stations said yesterday that they still have some problems with their livestreams. It is a technical issue which took some time to be solved. But problems getting a connection are still sometimes current. Just try it. I also had some problems this afternoon, now it is working pretty fine.

There are still a few tickets left, but only seats.

More pictures can be seen here: http://www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de/gallery.olympiastadion-so-bauen-sie-fuer-coldplay-auf-param~1~0~0~13~false.af65c699-dfd3-4b52-a04e-78ba5b6986f7.html

I am sure Chris will say "Auf Wiedersehen"...

Coldplay..on ukuleles (BBC Radio 4) http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_9750000/9750034.stm "A music marathon begins tomorrow across the country to mark the end of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. One of the songs that everyone has been asked to play is Coldplay's Viva La Vida. Alan Love and his ukulele band join us from our Birmingham studio, with a taste of what is to come."

I remember that Coldplay soundchecked White Shadows in August 2009 before their Hannover gig, but have never played it since then. I think we all overestimate the choice of songs during soundcheck.

Am Stadion wirst du sicherlich nicht als einziger warten. :lol:

I think it's rather 21:00. It is dark at this time and they started the same time three years ago during their European Stadium Tour in summer.

Was auch nicht vergessen werden sollte bei der Diskussion um Ticketpreise ist, dass der deutsche Staat Auftritte ausländischer Künstler besteuert, damit also Geld machen will. Über eine Steuer wird das gemacht, die Ausländersteuer. Wurde von der EU schon mehrmals in Frage gestellt, gibt es in Deutschland aber immer noch. Und das legen die Band - völlig verständlich - in Dtl. auf den Ticketpreis drauf.

There aren't any official starting times yet, but I guess that Coldplay will start at 21:00 as they did on their German Stadium Tour in 2009. With that in mind they finish at about 22:50. I've been to Leipzig a few times. It takes about 20 minutes to go from the stadium to the Central Station (10 mins to go to the tram, afterwards 7 minutes to the central station by tram). As the Leizpig central station is quite huge, you need to save some time to get to the platform. So, probably it will be very difficult to catch the train, maybe almost impossible (with thousands of people going the same way). But if Coldplay start 15 mins earlier, you have a good chance.

There are still a few standing tickets left, also some seats right next to the stage. On http://www.eventim.de/ a info says that these few tickets can be sold now because of the stage position etc.

Unfortunately the concert is sold out. You can only hope that additional tickets can be bought a few weeks before the gig (as it happened before the other european stadium shows). Or you post your request in the ticket exchance section http://coldplaying.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90483

Ah, Chris and Will singing so beautiful. Big applause for Spurs-Johnny...:lol::lol:

Thanks everyone! Certainly one of the better friday evenings to come...

Is the Absolute Radio Stream for UK-users only or can I listen to the concert from Germany? I did not find any information on the absolute radio website. Any idea?

Maybe they are at the radio station before their UK Stadium Tour. But that is not probably "massive"? Or is it?

As Roadie 42 reported that they played some old songs and one from the Viva era, I think it's pretty obivous that they add maybe two songs to the setlist for the stadium shows. Maybe something like this... Mylo Xyloto Hurts Like Heaven In My Place Major Minus Lovers In Japan The Scientist Yellow Violet Hill God Put A Smile Upon Your Face ---- B-Stage---- Princess Of China Up In Flames Warning Sign -------------------- Don't Let It Break Your Heart Viva La Vida Charlie Brown Paradise ---- C-Stage (Acoustic)--- Us Against The World Speed of Sound ------------------------------- Yes Amsterdam or Politik ---- Encore------------------ Clocks Fix You Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall

Last night BBC Five Live had a special programme about sports and music. The BBC Philharmonic Orchestra did perform Paradise. Here is the link: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b01c6v1r Paradise starts at 14:10.

Charlie Brown:lol::lol::lol:

Can't work out how the fireworks fit into Paradise. So maybe ETIAW at the beginning with the fireworks at the end of the song? But i also hope for Charlie Brown.

A German music website gave a little insight into Coldplay's plans for the European Stadium Tour in the summer. Unfortunately the article is only in German and some parts are pure speculation. But the 360°-Stage with five big screens seem to be certain. Here is the link to the article. http://www.musikmarkt.de/Aktuell/News/News/Coldplay-Tour-2012-XL-Video-mit-Produktionsdetails
