He's such a Thom fanboy. Oh, and I didn't watch the videos yet, but LOL at the fact Thom looks like he did a wardrobe change. SO EXCITED FOR YOU MIKE!!! We will be living vicariously through you tonight!

Oh man, I'm gonna have to catch the rest of this amazing setlist tomorrow. Goodnight everyone...

IT'S HAPPENING... looking forward to seeing the setlist soon. I'm also curious to find out what happens with the ticket situation (whether people got screwed over from the auctions).

Oh man it looks like we're about to get some rain... if we have another night of softball games canceled, I'll scream! We've already had four nights canceled in the fall league, it's ridiculous!

Dude, it's mmmkay not mmkay, get it right bro. dontz disrespectz da souf parkz

That post was not inappropriate in and of itself, but as I mentioned I removed the entire series of posts related to what was happening. Now this just looks out of place. mmmkay :tongue: South Park rules \m/

What, did they have another allocation?

AMSTERDAM Followed closely by I Ran Away. Didn't Phil mention a few months ago that he thinks Amsterdam will return to the setlist?

LOLWAT

:lol: oy, that's perfect! Well, that's just the way he is. I suppose you'd have to watch a few episodes to get his sense of humor. He cracks me up, although I always cringe when watching his interviews because sometimes you can't tell if the people he's interviewing understand that he's joking around most of the time.

Hey Mich you could just be like "I'm going to be a representative at the Roundhouse for the BTDMAs later this week, you should let me in." :tongue:

A pair of tickets for $16k? lolque, that's more than I paid for the most epic epicness of epicocity ever

:awesome: Do you have your acceptance speech prepared?!?

:surprised: Oohhh, is it that guy? The one that was sitting behind me? The one that did this?... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J4JsjBza24]Coldplay marriage proposal - Newcastle December 20, 2010 - YouTube[/ame]

Sleep works pretty well for me.

Yeah I pretty much agree with what the rest of you said. I'm not a fan of Staircase, but it turned out much better than Lotus Flower here. And was it just my imagination or did he screw up some of the lyrics? edit: One thing I found interesting... Colin usually keeps his eye on Phil for keeping rhythm, but I noticed that both Colin and Phil were keeping their eye on Clive! Interesting. Sorry, that was random.

And he maintained and pleaded his innocence even on his death bed. Refused sedation. Told the people about to kill him, as well as the members of the officer's family that he prayed for their souls. I really have a hard time believing that he did it, especially considering 7 of the 9 witnesses recanted their original story saying that they saw him do it. This whole thing is a tragedy.

Yip. Frankly I'm not against people selling the tickets for more in and of itself, actually I think it shouldn't be illegal. Free market for all. If people are willing to pay that much, then technically the band should be charging that much for some of the tickets (I know I'll get ripped for that comment, but I'm just stating that from a simple supply/demand standpoint). But the problem as you mention Angie, the current system really isn't free market for all... there are insiders who have the hookup with the distributors (Stub Hub apparently doesn't, but we all know they do wink wink). So there's currently no such thing as a level playing field. If everyone including the third party re-sellers were on the same level, we wouldn't see nearly as much of this, I don't think. And you'll notice that a lot of the listings on ebay are "businesses", and reselling those tickets on ebay is all they do.

Voted... last day! :wacko:

^ :nod: Normally I'm all for free-market behavior, but there's just something viscerally wrong about all of this. I wonder how many tickets were allocated for the presale versus the general sale.

um yeah so I'm like excited about this and stuff

Obviously lots of fans had difficulty getting tickets for the UK and European shows, whether they tried for the presale or the general sale. And seeing a pair of tickets sell for £560 on ebay this morning only adds to the disappointment. In an effort to prevent such profiteering from "non-fans", some musicians have taken to making the tickets "will call only" (picking up the tickets at the venue). Do you think it would have been a good idea for Coldplay to make tickets for these shows "will call only"? Why or why not?

PM sent :wacko:

Out of curiosity I wanted to see how much they were selling for on ebay. Just witnessed a sale ending a few minutes ago. 2 seated tickets for O2 arena (block 407, row J) sold for edit:
