  1. Aww wait up guys, I am travelling from 10.45 to 15.50 just to get to Hackney XD
  2. I am travelling all the way from Llanelli, South Wales so I hope they do more than half an hour XD
  3. Chris and Jonny Little noise sessions time? Hey guys, ,does anyone know roughly how the long boys will be on for? Also, roughly what time will the show end because I am coming from South Wales and need to make arrangements. Thanks :)
  4. I have had a bad week in general so i wasn't expecting a turn in luck today XD
  5. All the recent shows, I have been refreshing before the onsale time and during, I still can't get tickets. So frustrated
  6. I am gutted because I haven't seen Coldplay live before and really want to. Though, I am not paying for the ticket and all the travelling costs from South Wales just to sit behind the stage.
  7. I just backed out and went to Youtube's main page and then the screen is smaller but better quality and hasn't frozen once.
  8. No problem man :D Just thought I would post it because I haven't seen it posted anywhere else.
  9. [Review] Mylo Xyloto IGN. Hey guys, I know IGN are not the best reviewers of music but here is their review of Coldplay's new album Mylo Xyloto. Coldplay: Mylo Xyloto Review 8/10 Chris Martin and co produce an album with a ridiculous name but a very big sound. by Chris Tilly. Ah, Coldplay. The world hates you, as you regularly claim. And yet the world buys your albums in their tens of millions, which suggests otherwise. And Mylo Xyloto - pronounced my-lo zy-letoe - looks to be no exception, an epic record that will doubtless sell by the planet-load in spite of the ridiculous name. Unfortunately, it appears to be something of a concept album, set in a strange dystopian future and revolving around a pair of star-crossed lovers fighting the power and dreaming of escape. But if you ignore the band's somewhat embarrassing efforts to make a musical Nineteen Eighty-Four, it's really rather good, the foursome knowing their limitations and taking an 'if it ain't broke' approach by crafting a set of stirring anthems that will doubtless trouble the top of the charts for months to come. Proceedings kick off with a trio of tracks unquestionably cut from Coldplay cloth - epic tunes that sound like they were scientifically engineered to trigger mass sing-alongs in giant stadiums. Hurts Like Heaven is a pacy number chock-full space-age sounds and cascading guitars. Charlie Brown is built around a powerful guitar riff and utilises the familiar Chris Martin warble to great effect. And Paradise is a hook-heavy monster of a song, the catchy chorus of which will take residence in your brain with little interest in moving on. Yet while the melodies are great, the lyrics are as clich�-ridden as ever; bland generalisations about boys and girls lying underneath the stormy skies and never letting go of each other. There's even a song called Us Against the World which smashes the listener over the head with the album's central theme of love conquering all. Yet in spite of this lyrical mediocrity, the songs draw you in. Don't Let It Break Your Heart is a bombastic rocker that's bathed in an irresistible optimism, and Every Teardrop is a Waterfall is a glorious celebration of life that builds to a genuinely uplifting harmonic crescendo. It's not all guitar-driven anthems, though, with the boys dabbling - albeit superficially - in electro on Rhianna collaboration Princess of China. And while the result is far from inspired, the combination of the aforementioned Martin warble and the unmistakable Rhianna wail is surprisingly effective in the song's closing moments. The record is less successful when the foursome slows things down, with ballads like Up in Flames and Up with the Birds sounding bland and uninspired, lacking the intimate intensity of something like The Scientist, and suggesting that Coldplay shouldn't start songs with the word 'Up.' There are times when the album feels somewhat over-produced, with layer upon layer of noise suffocating songs that sound desperate to breathe - though that may be down to the involvement of uber-producer Brian Eno, whom the liner notes escribe as responsible for 'exonification.' Whatever that is. Yet all the noise in the world can't obscure the fact that at its core, this is a collection of very good songs written by a band that knows its strengths and plays to them. It lacks the raw brilliance of Arcade Fire, or the evocative power or early Bruce Springsteen - both of which Coldplay ape here without ever equalling - but taken on its own terms, Mylo Xyloto may be the best album that the band has yet produced. The result is a glorious, effervescent powerhouse of a record that sounds good now, but will truly take flight when sung in stadiums and arenas around the globe. 8.0 OVERALL http://uk.music.ign.com/articles/121/1210628p1.html
  10. I phoned up and the automated woman says it's sold out in both venues :(
  11. I will be gutted if I can't get standing tickets. I have never seen them live before and I have been a massive fan since I listened to music! My girlfriend didn't like Coldplay and has started to convert so taking her to see these guys would be amazing.
  12. I was online at 9:34 am, all standing and lower tier seats were gone :( Is there any hope in getting standing tickets tomorrow if I get online before 9:30 am?
