oh noes!!! sorry to hear about your predicament, Macintosh! :( but what was the reason tho (if any given)? love how Coldplay's Wembley gig coincides with the start of uni/school term in UK... :) i'd suggest to just keep checking on Ticketmaster or the other legal/official sites for tickets as & when they become available. that's how i got my ticket, btw...once i'd gotten my uni offers & accepted one. & i'd say my Wembley ticket cost less than the most expensive ticket for the recent Singapore gig...so i suppose the only ticket available to you are the Club Wembley package ones? cos last i checked it's sold out & looking at any other outlets (e.g. eBay) would mean paying a higher price & the risk that the ticket's not legit.

you speaking from experience there? :\ "VIVA LA VIDA" indeed!!! :D but it's true....why hide that fact of life? :P

"a Hakkinen" = the Flying Finn = Mika Hakkinen ---> former F1 driver for the McLaren-Mercedes team ---> Michael Schumacher's most respected rival in F1

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: as long as you're young at heart...it's all good, mate!!! :cool: myself, i'm only 29 in about 3mths' time. but i do hope that once i get to your age, i'm still actively doing stuff like going for live events & travelling around...not some grumpy old lady sitting at home all day watching TV reruns. :P

is that a good/bad thing, that form of his? cos i'd kinda lost interest back then & Hakkinen's short break turned out to be a long-term retirement...

^ that's so not a nice thing to say, imo... :inquisitive:

thanks! :) i'm not the most lucky person around either...last time i won something was some contest for Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. but i'm just trying my luck anyway. never know, eh? & my guess is that since Kasabian & All American Rejects are the big name acts for this event, either of them'll be the last to go on. Hoobastank was a bigger draw when The Reason was all over the airwaves. & the 1 & only local band will most likely be 1st to play onstage. oi! steady there, you two... but a dream :whip: rudy_o :whip: for the greater good of all mankind, esp. the shoppers at The Curve, i refuse to audition for the mosh pit passes. the world needs to be saved the misfortune of seeing me jiggle my fats & scream my lungs out onstage. :P i do have a friend who's actually considering trying out cos she wants mosh pits & no less. :dozey:

i see even (future) rock stars are not immune to the NKOTB fashion phase in the late 80s/early 90s... :smug: truth... :embarassed:

what's not to make a big deal about the number 42? it's the answer to life the universe & everything! important stuff that! now, if only we knew the ultimate question of life the universe & everything... :P after a lot of deep thought, my own nonsensical theory is that Coldplay (or someone in Coldplay) are H2G2 fans i present, my evidences : Don't Panic = H2G2 phrase; it's on the cover of the guide 42 = as above...it is THE answer now, it'd be brilliant if they make/have a song called 'Paranoid Android', but then that's already been done by Radiohead. darn it. :dozey:

not sure if this is the same method used by tauwi, but you can look at this link for how to set up a free iTunes Store account in a different country http://www.geekology.co.za/blog/2009/05/how-to-get-a-free-itunes-store-account-anywhere-in-the-world/ i haven't gotten around to doing it tho...just bookmarked it last mth, but haven't had the motivation/time to set one up. & btw, mods, i'm not sure if this is allowed. but if it isn't, then i'll remove it... :inquisitive:

seriously? ALL??? :stunned: gah! gimmegimmegimme...why isn't it available to us in Asia (via normal means)??? :cry:

SQUEEE!!! CONGRATS, GIRL!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: remember to take loads&loads&loads&loads&loads&loads&loads&loads of pix ...& post them here to share share your experience :D

i'm assuming this is none other than Jonny Boy? so adorkable (in a very good way)! :lol:

okies, i pwomise...scout's honour. & good luck with the contests! :thumbsup:

go for the music lah! :P for me : Kasabian > All American Rejects > Hoobastank ................& the rest. my lil sis is keen to go for All American Rejects only, which i think is the act the majority want to go for anyway. & thanks. i've seen the options...contests for KLue, Junk & TongueInChic. still thinking of something worthy of submitting for the Junk contest since the question's the same thruout. & made a (cringe worthy) attempt at a pick-up line for TongueInChic's question today. :embarassed: figured that the Fly FM one would be the easier option. hence the reason for listening to them now. MTV Asia itself is a luck of the draw thing after 7 Aug. & i sure as hell ain't "auditioning" for mosh pit passes (typical MTV). :rolleyes: + me a 012 maxis user lah...don't really wanna fork out the cash for a 019/013 number when i'll be leaving for UK very soon. what in the world will i do with a RM50+ credit SIM? :\

i will be bloody amazed if he can win the season for Ferrari. but then the man did not win the championship 7 times by sheer flukes (as boring as F1 had become before he retired...cos you just knew he was gonna win. again. :dozey: ) & kudos to him for stepping in to help the team out with Massa out for the count now.

my best mate has Coldplay songs as his ringtone at times...but he'd never admit to being a Coldplay fan. but then again, he'd never admit to being a fan of any band/singer. so whenever he showed me he had a Coldplay song as his ringtone, i guess that was like a nod of approval from him. .......................is it seriously that hard to find a guy who'll admit to even liking Coldplay (outside of this forum)? :thinking:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's not available in the Singapore store either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :stunned::stunned::stunned: :computer::smash: *goes off to a corner to sulk & play TapTap Coldplay* :P

awww.... :D

& at least they look more like the guys than the draft(?) Simpsons drawings... :P

*lol* thanks for the reassurance, Min. :D

*lol* asking for it from the Guy supporters, eh? :dozey: but even then, i'd think it's off putting to be asking someone about how his band mate (singular) is doing. tho it seemed like Guy's answer was referring to the band as a whole...so that's why i thought i might've misheard the question.

wooo....we're getting pretty exact with all the hours/days counting now... :lol:

cos sometimes i just feel like hammering my PC when i can't figure out what's wrong with a program i've made...haha question: is it sad that i've now started listening to Fly FM daily cos i wanna get my hands on a pair of passes to the MTV World Stage Live on 15 Aug? :P

hmmm...is it just me or did it get kinda awkward towards the end? & i thought it was a bit weird that he ended off with asking about Chris specifically...or maybe i misheard the question? :confused:
