I want to add my thanks for all the pictures you posted of the globe NumbersGirl. The spinning globe really does look almost like the original. I hope that shot gets used for something.

Thank you for the pictures Rickenbacker. It's cool that you'll be playing the same bass that Guy played. It looks really nice.

Thank you for the pictures. I'm glad the globe was won by a fan. It sounds like it will have a good home.

It was about two weeks after I paid before DHL picked up the item and then a few more days before I received the tracking number from DHL.

For those who are still waiting, it took four days after it was picked up before it arrived in Canada. Then another five days to get through customs and then delivered. But I am still glad to have it. I hope NumbersGirl, AFeather, rickenbacker and everyone else still waiting get their items soon.

Thank you to everyone who posted their pictures. I received Jonny's X & Y platinum discs today. I haven't posted pictures before but hopefully this will work. It was a long time getting it but it was exciting to actually have a personal memento.

The creative effects in this video is amazing and so unusual! I like how the the artwork and Chris's movements worked to make it look like he's really moving in the chalk world. It was funny when Chris tossed a whole fish in his mouth for breakfast. I liked the parts where he does a handstand and his bendy moves to avoid the arrows, the fish with the hat inside the stomach of the catfish, when he paddles away on a puff of smoke with a smiley face, and when he uses a giant nut to distract the squirrel. I also liked the part when the squirrel woke up and blew Chris away with his battle scream that matched Chris singing Ah aaah in the song. Some of the actions match the lyrics in a weird way and the odd humor suits the song in my opinion. Thank you to Chris and Shynola for making a great video for the song and thank you to Coldplay for making the song.

I uploaded some videos of the concert on youtube under the name cypherjan1. I'm not sure how to add them here. I wasn't sure I would be able to see the concert because it was sold out and any tickets released the day of the show seemed to be taken right away. There were seats available behind the stage but I didn't really want those so kept checking back during the day. One guy was very helpful in searching several minutes and found tickets in section 115. Which was lucky because that was close to where the band played the acoustic part of the show. I saw Coldplay when they first came to Calgary in 2003 which wasn't long after I found out about them. It was great to see them then and great to see them again. The part of the show I enjoyed the most was seeing them up close but the music, the lasers, video effects, Chris's manic energy and humorous comments, and the crowd participation were all part of what made the show so good. It was funny when the half-naked men in the audience were spotlighted and Chris commented on them. I really hope there will be a DVD. At the end, security didn't seem to mind people coming onto the floor to get butterflies. I collected a few before they started trying to get people to leave. There wasn't any problem getting LRLRL at the exit.

Great news! I'm happy they're coming to Edmonton and Calgary. My mum, who lives in Edmonton, wants to go to the Edmonton show. I want to go to both.

I hope it's true.

Happy Birthday Sorry this is so late but I hope Chris had a good birthday. Thank you and the band for all the giveaways over the last year. I hope that the next album will be all you worked for. Best wishes, Janet
