all i'm waiting for is to see either "our new song" or "a head full of dreams" in a coldplay tweet.

a new pic of guy for a change! <blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-version="4" style=" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><div style="padding:8px;"> <div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf//42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB/lQPb79drWOyJVa/DAvg9B/rLB4cC+Nqgdz/TvBbBnr6GBReqn/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I/fZou/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"></div></div> <p style=" margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;"> <a href="https://instagram.com/p/6KL4AHv8CT/" style=" color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;" target="_top">two drowned rats on a mountainpass coffebreak </a></p> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;">A photo posted by Magne Furuholmen (@magne_furuholmen) on <time style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;" datetime="2015-08-09T10:24:03+00:00">Aug 9, 2015 at 3:24am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote> <script async defer src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script>

this is from the kids company 2013 annual report x so they are trying to save the Treehouse, which i presume is a youth center. hope it works out. this is what treehouse is: x

so coldplay are trying to save a part of kids company! phil is talking about it here. does anyone have full access to this article?

done.

probably. that has been a staple since viva and the only anomaly was GS, which happened under different circumstances.

i don't think they will do an exclusive deal to release in one format/service anyway. the record company has a lot of money (that they lost out on the non-existent GS tour) to make. but there is a chance of some exclusive content being released in tidal. not necessarily musical. i sure hope not. but we'll see. anyway, seeing that a promo tour is near, what are you most looking forward to in terms of promo? other than the music itself, i would like to see good profiles of the band in a couple of magazines. the last one was for mx in 2011 i think. i've missed the kind of good ones we got during a rush of blood, x&y and viva.

by the way, there has been some discussion as to how coldplay would release their music and if any exclusive content is released, where that would be. so guess where prince is releasing his next album exclusively? tidal!! x

ohh.. i hope the abuse allegations are not true.. anyway, sustaining a massive charity based around a central figure head can be problematic. that's what seems to have happened. no more under one roof.. to think chris used to scribble that even on his instruments..

they have people working for them. i'm sure the logistics are worked out in advance. and i'm pretty convinced that we'll get a single before the iheartradio show, regardless of what random people would say in social media. the reason is, they only do these top40, highly commercialized shows when they are in the promo runs. it's not like doing a one off bbc gig. this is not even a coldplay crowd! so don't worry :) i'm sure we'll get new music soon.

who knows who the original anon was. but this tweeter seems to be one that makes mountains out of nothing (see the chris-is-dating-frieda-pinto-now tweet because they were in india together for global citizen :lol:). still there is a possibility this is true.

seems u2 booked the same place for a month for rehearsals earlier this year before going on the current tour. so there is a possibility this is true.

keeping in mind that this is coming from a questionable source without links to the original source... <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Coldplay was in Vancouver rehearsing for their upcoming live shows and world tour after the release of AHFOD at the Pacific Coliseum.</p>— Evelyn Spencer (@evelyn_apricots) <a href="https://twitter.com/evelyn_apricots/status/629680967410712576">August 7, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

so coldplay had donated £8m to kids company over the years. that's a considerable amount. x

sad to hear this. although i don't know about the concerns with the organization, they obviously helped a lot of kids through their years.

if it helps, he was with simon pegg :lol: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/chrismartin_br">@chrismartin_br</a> oh it was deleted already!

yeah, if this is true, 9 songs is just too damn short! unless they do a viva and couple songs together, which i doubt will happen.

ok, so i'm going to post these here anyway. whether it's the same anon, a troll, or whatever. x chris being in vancouver is true since there have been several tweets about this over the last couple of weeks, along with this from yesterday. <blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-version="4" style=" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><div style="padding:8px;"> <div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAAGFBMVEUiIiI9PT0eHh4gIB4hIBkcHBwcHBwcHBydr+JQAAAACHRSTlMABA4YHyQsM5jtaMwAAADfSURBVDjL7ZVBEgMhCAQBAf//42xcNbpAqakcM0ftUmFAAIBE81IqBJdS3lS6zs3bIpB9WED3YYXFPmHRfT8sgyrCP1x8uEUxLMzNWElFOYCV6mHWWwMzdPEKHlhLw7NWJqkHc4uIZphavDzA2JPzUDsBZziNae2S6owH8xPmX8G7zzgKEOPUoYHvGz1TBCxMkd3kwNVbU0gKHkx+iZILf77IofhrY1nYFnB/lQPb79drWOyJVa/DAvg9B/rLB4cC+Nqgdz/TvBbBnr6GBReqn/nRmDgaQEej7WhonozjF+Y2I/fZou/qAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"></div></div> <p style=" margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;"> <a href="https://instagram.com/p/53LqdQgk1j/" style=" color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;" target="_top">Not one for selfies BUT... #adventure #adventureyourway #bestoftheday #bucketlist #chrismartin #coldplay #explore #instagood #instalove #instamood #instatravel #landscapes #letsgosomewhere #liveauthentic #livefolk #mytravelgram #neverstopexploring #tourism #tourist #travel #travelgram #traveling #trip #vacation #visualsoflife #wanderlust #wildernessculture #northamerica #canada #vancouver</a></p> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;">A photo posted by Jack Rees (@bucketlist.196) on <time style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;" datetime="2015-08-02T01:16:38+00:00">Aug 1, 2015 at 6:16pm PDT</time></p></div></blockquote> <script async defer src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script>

that's the db! good find. i don't think anyone can register can they? it is not an open db.

or GS, the songs showed up in ASCAP after they were officially revealed, either as singles or the tracklist i think. so if anyone can check the other db, there is a chance that at least the first single is registered there, if the single release is as close as e think. but i can't remember the name/cite.

think there is another database that requires credentials to use where usually these songs come up first. or am i remembering that wrong? i could be totally wrong on this by the way. i remember there was one user (a songwriter i think) on here who would check that up and post when something new comes along. i think he was the one who suggested the name of mylo by checking that db way before it was released.

hahaa! sorry if i ruined that for you. still this could be a guy that brings the band their lunch :lol: and that's the connection. remember how the star mentioned about the GOT sketch even mentioning the cancelled musical posters? surely someone tipped them off on that. wouldn't that be in competition with tidal? is chris the only one with a stake there or are whole band involved? chris usually doesn't do things on his own, i'd think the whole band is behind this even though they don't show up. don't know. anyway, the way tidal has flopped, don't think the band will premier anything there anyway. chances are they may include some exclusives along the way, but that's it.

good points. it's just something to keep an eye out more than taking as gospel, as is the case with any anon. anyway, if anyone missed this, this source has probably been wrong once so far. the chances are that the live premier of the new song will be at iheartradio festival and not the global citizen festival.
