the stadiums in UK have curfews? :inquisitive: don't think i can make it, but i'll try to drop by if time permits...no idea what i'll bring tho.

at first i thought Busta Rhymes' quote on Coldplay was rather short...with the point being just to say "i wanna do a song with them!". :thinking: but reading the full article, i take that thought back - i actually like what he has to say, in full, about Coldplay (& Lil Wayne also as a whole). i'd say there's a note of respect there even. :wacky:

voted Wembley...if only cos it's Wemberrrley, baby! :D heck, just by seeing Coldplay in Wembley is already like checking off 2 things off my bucket list : 1) attend a concert in UK 2) see a concert/football match in Wembley & also cos it's looking like it's gonna be epic with an international turnout among the crowd! :D:D

oh, yes! that was a brilliant song with a message behind it. :)

do you still have the credit card statement with the actual amount being charged to your credit card for the tickets? i'm sure that's a pretty good proof that a transaction did happen. gives you something to go with - i mean, if they've charged your card for the tickets, then i'd think they are obligated to do something more than saying there's no order found as money has changed hands. personally, i only took it as a reality that i have really successfully bought my ticket when i saw the charge on my credit card statement. even tho Ticketmaster did send an email confirmation 1st. to be honest, i think Jay-Z'll join in for Lost+ regardless of whether this gig's recorded for a DVD release or not. i'd think that Beyonce also joining in would be a bigger thing for a DVD special footage...but then, feel free to poo poo that last comment - i'm just dreaming up nonsense. again. :dozey:

got an email from cafepress yesterday to let me know that my t-shirt's on the way! yay! :D but got a ways to wait yet...the estimated arrival time they gave me is around mid July. :\ *starts twiddling thumbs in anticipation*

thanks for that! :) guess i need to pay much closer attention to the single version... :embarassed:

most memorable : definitely Smooth Criminal with that move where he dips reeeeeeeeeeeeally low down to the floor & the Moonwalker movie + video game tie-ins. tho song/lyrics-wise i did also particularly like The Way You Make Me Feel and Bad. :)

really like A Hundred Million Suns & am really loving The Planets Bend Between Us to bits! but i can't really tell what's the diff between the album version & the single/MV version beyond the ending bit where the whole band sings the chorus/main line? cos i thought i read somewhere that Gary was saying the re-recording would sound completely different to the album version...anyone can enlighten me?

time...+ some known hit singles under your belt. but definitely time > style, imo. music in itself does evolve with time, but it's the older music that tends to be classified as "classic anything" genre-wise. so i do believe that in time, stuff by U2, GNR, Nirvana, Oasis, Radiohead, Coldplay, etc will eventually fall under Classic Rock. some of them already are...like older stuff from the 80s by U2 & GNR, but their new stuff don't fall under that category. & i realise early 90s stuff are also starting to appear on stations that play "classic hits" or "classic rock" music.

yeah! Hugh Laurie with posh Brit accent as a mad cockroach scientist is "simply the cat's meowow!" :D

that'd be quite a story! imagine a kid in school answering "I was born at Wembley Stadium...during a Coldplay concert, surrounded by a sea of yellow tees." though i think she'll be obliged to squeeze in all 4 guys' names just to be fair...that's one loooong name.... :P

they already have...for Wembley, anyway. at last count : Jay-Z, Girls Aloud, White Lies makes 3 :P

i think that Travelodge has been overtaken by Coldplayers & made into their HQ for the Wembley shows... :lol:

aye, that would very likely lead to bad press for them too if such a thing happened... :\

i wonder how that combination will taste like... :thinking: :confused: :shocked2:

this statement makes me wonder what Jonny thinks Guy's doing whenever he's twittering away on his iPhone...esp with the onstage tweet, like the recent one. :dozey:

alamak! Penang??? so far................... definitely the fried maggi in mamak stalls! topped with a telur mata kerbau! hehe *drools* i tried looking for a good one while i was working in Singapore, but somehow they always come out really red...just doesn't taste the same. :( so whenever i got the chance to come back to KL, the 1st thing i'd want when i arrive is a maggi goreng. :D

^ LOL!!! :laugh3:

well, can try adding the seasoning from the maggi kari with the one from the maggi ayam...but that'll probably be one helluva salty soup + MSG overload. :stunned: & all this talk of maggi mee at 3AM has given me a craving for maggi goreng... :P

orrite then. thanks for the packing tip, Jenjie! :D

i can imagine the newspaper headlines already : "Paddington Station taken over by Coldplay fans for picnic" :D but i don't think i can join in if it's in the evening cos i'm supposed to set off to Bristol on Sunday... :(

your name's "100 days mark" then? :P

as in even a ladies' small size? :stunned: たいへんででしょね。。。 i suppose the tees are mens' sizes? i'm a bit conflicted on whether to get a small or medium right now...cos i usually order a large girly tee when i buy from Threadless. :thinking: & i reckon it'll be kinda cold by Sep so i'll need to be wearing a jacket...over the tee...or are anyone/everyone planning to wear the tee over their jacket/pullovers/layers? :P + a big THANK YOU for the efforts of all those involved in getting this whole thing jumpstarted & seeing it all the way to completion!!! :D

at least he's wised up & appears to have had a logical think thru on the situation & is now taking the more civilised way to sort things out. so good on Cat Stevens / Yusuf Islam. i was frankly pretty disappointed to hear that he'd joined in the plagiarism claim. since he's not like some unknown musician & he's been around a while already in this industry with his own successful hits under his belt.
