well that was worth posting - see the other thread now.....

well seems they did postpone.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/4270702.stm Coldplay axe gig due to hurricane Coldplay are due to play in Texas as part of an extensive US tour Concerts by British bands Coldplay and Oasis at an open air music venue in Texas have been postponed ahead of Hurricane Rita. The venue is citing safety concerns as the reason for the postponements. Meanwhile, organisers of the outdoor Austin City Limits festival, which both bands are due to play before a crowd of 65,000, say the event will go ahead. Coldplay had been due to headline a show at the Houston venue on Saturday, with Oasis playing the following night. A concert by US rock band Journey, scheduled for Friday, has also been postponed. An announcement on venue's website said: "This action is taken in the best interest and safety of the fans, artists and staff in the face of Hurricane Rita." Storm warning The storm, which meteorologists say could be one of the most powerful seen on the US mainland, is heading towards Texas with winds of 165mph (265km/h). President George Bush has declared a state of emergency in Texas and neighbouring Louisiana. Coldplay and Oasis are among the headline acts for the three-day festival which begins in Austin on Friday, along with US acts like country stars Lyle Lovett and Lucinda Williams. Bloc Party, Keane, Kasabian and Franz Ferdinand are among the other British acts booked to perform. Oasis are due to tour the US until 3 October A festival spokeswoman told the BBC news website that organisers were being advised by experts and were keeping "a very close watch on the weather". "If weather conditions appear to present any kind of danger to fans, musicians or crew, we are prepared to make the necessary adjustments to maintain safety," she said. "Until then, the festival is on, rain or shine." One concert-goer, who has a three day pass to the festival, said: "The organisers have said they won't cancel, rain or shine. "Sixty-five thousand people at a concert in a hurricane is going to be awesome."

Just noticed Coldplay are playing Houston the same day as Motley Crue. Here's news of their show from the Toyota Center venue: Motley Crue Saturday, September 24, 2005 8:00 PM Due to Hurricane Rita and circumstances that are beyond control, the Motley Crue performance, scheduled for Saturday, September 24th at 8pm, has been officially postponed. Additional information on reschedule dates are to be determined. ---- they are due to play the C.W. Mitchell Pavilion on the 24th.....

http://www.nme.co.uk/news/112448.htm CRAZY FROG SET TO BEAT COLDPLAY TO NUMBER ONE COLDPLAY look likely to be beaten to the Number One spot this week by a song originally designed as a ringtone. According to music retailer HMV, Crazy Frog's 'Axel F' is outselling ’Speed Of Sound’ by a 4 to 1 margin in their stores. Chart expert Gennaro Castaldo said: "Music purists might not be too happy at the prospect of the Crazy Frog outselling Coldplay, but it shouldn't come as that much of a surprise when you consider its huge novelty appeal and the massive amount of exposure its currently getting. ”Kids obviously find it cute and cool, but students and even office workers seem to be drawn to its rather kitsch, ironic appeal. The only real issue is whether the record label can press enough copies to keep up with the huge demand that we're seeing right now." ****************** if you don't live in the UK (lucky you) you may have seen the annoying banner ads on websites which play this piece of crap when you 'mouseover' it. The ad is ALWAYS on - until I turn it over that is. I think I may buy an extra cop of SOS to help prevent this. Then again quality always outlasts cheesy crap designed to make some faceless 'producers?' money.

Guy's voice didn't sound too good but maybe with practice it will be better. Good performance even though with that cap Johnny looks like the other Pet Shop Boy circa 1986..hehe Did anyone else see Speed Of Sound on CH4 last night? After the Foo Fighters "Best Of You" premiere they went straight into the start of SOS - about the same length as the clip on the coldplayer.

after TOTP & CD:UK more stuff to tape.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/later Coming Up Fri 27th May Kaiser Chiefs & Martha Wainwright Fri 3rd June New Order, The Coral & Rufus Wainwright Later in the series Beck, Doves & Coldplay

didn't see this posted so.... http://www.u2.com/news/index.php?mode=full&news_id=1533 09.05.2005 Rush of Blood to the Head Chris, Gwyneth, Keanu... must be Chicago! ....Chris Martin and Coldplay were about too, along with Gwyneth and Keanu. If Chris had planned on being incognito it was not too last - at least not after Bono greeted Coldplay in his introduction to Miracle Drug, also thanking Kings of Leon for supporting them. .... the second picture on the left shows them all in the vip area in front of the mixing desk. You can spot Will at first glance.

more pics.... http://gallery.rocknroll.net/coldplay/index.html some great pics of all the band (apart from Jonnny) up close. :)

According to a Verve site Richard Ashcroft is opening for Coldplay in Austria July 10th might be old news but here is a poster http://www.musicsaves.org/verve//images/coldplay.gif

just searching some radio sites for unrelated stuff and stumbled on this :) http://www.kfog.com/default.asp COLDPLAY INTERVIEW Before playing a sold out show at The Fillmore, Chris Martin and Will Champion of Coldplay stopped by the KFOG Studios for an interview with Irish Greg. they have a small pic of them in studio and the interview in 2 parts (mp3)

for those who don't have iTunes or want a better quality stream than the Coldplayer check out winamp.com (if you don't have the player the download is free..) http://www.winamp.com/music/browse.php?search=yes&filter=M&query=coldplay they also stream Clocks, Clocks (in studio-aol session I think) and Moses. They also have lots of other new music and some great free radio stations.

likely dates are: FRI MAY 13th, 20th, 27th and repeats while SOS is at #1.... possibly an album track might get shown the week of the album release.

so on the Y&Y cover you have X on the left Y on the right A (for AND) at the top then in the middle bottom two 0's seems to me they are put in just to make it more mysterious and also make the two green lines become the Make Trade Fair logo.

Seems the band performed "Speed Of Sound" on TOTP's on the 15th. 21 Pics here: http://www.globephotos.com/dynevent-action-nl.do?eventid=119204&hmessage=CELEBRITIES+PERFORM+ON+%22+TOP+OF+THE+POPS+%22+AT+THE+BBC+TELEVISION+STUDIOS+%2C+LONDON+4-15-2005 Interesting pic of Chris getting his "make-up" done hehe They aren't scheduled for this week so they may have done more than 1 song as they did last time - & like most bands do. (just looking at the pics again - Chris is with the mike, piano and guitar in different shots so they definitely did more than 1 song) http://www.bbc.co.uk/totp/whos_on/ TOTP's site is being updated and they have the next show date wrong = according to listings as well as the bands they list this Friday they'll show: Top of the Pops BBC2 England 7:30 pm Friday Apr 22th The week's chart-toppers, featuring performances by Backstreet Boys, Oasis and Amerie.
