Thanks Jack!

The Oracle: Coldplay Aren't Going Anywhere... More questions answered by The Oracle... September 25, 2008 - submitted by yukie, Japan Q. I read Q&A with Guy. I seems that next released album is going to be last. Each members look like enjoying themselves. And it must be hard to play everyday,your schedule looks hard. No time to go home... Is this inference incorrect? The Oracle replies: Don't worry, all the guys have interests outside of the band but that doesn't mean they're looking for new careers. Guy's photography is a hobby, the photos may materialize in a book one day but that wouldn't interfere with the band. In fact, being in the band helps him hone his skills and he gets to take amazing photos all over the world. That's called killing two birds with one stone. For anyone who missed it here's the interview with Guy.

[Live Review] Coldplay - Stadthalle, Vienna, Austria (24th September 2008) Coldplay's single concert at the Stadthalle in Austria took place tonight. A strong show, no surprises, no mistakes. More on this concert here onwards and images at the gallery here. [thanks *Sarah* & Miha] Setlist: Life In Technicolor Violet Hill Clocks In My Place Speed Of Sound Cemeteries Of London Chinese Sleep Chant 42 Fix You Strawberry Swing God Put A Smile Upon Your Face (techno version) Talk (partial - techno version) The Hardest Part (piano - Chris) Postcards From Far Away (piano instrumental) Viva La Vida Lost! The Scientist (acoustic) Death Will Never Conquer (acoustic - Will singing) Viva La Vida (remix interlude) ------ Politik Lovers In Japan Death And All His Friends ------- Yellow The Escapist [photos] [videos] [wiki reviews/setlist] (updated over the next 24 hours) This was, I have to say, the best concert I've ever gone to. For starters, Albert Hammond Jr was terrific as the supporting act, he had some very good rock songs, couldn't really hear what he was singing about but obviously it didn't matter! After then half an hour after AHJ, we heard a familiar melody! "An der schönen blauen Donau" by Johann Strauss II, the crowd obviously went crazy! And right at the end of that song, Coldplay came to the stage.

It's awesome! I love it.

Exclusive: Coldplay's Lost! Video Released Online After some expensive looking high concept videos for their last few efforts Coldplay brings it back to the basics and where it all started from with their new video “Lost” from the top selling album Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends. The video is a performance piece with the band rocking an arena sized audience as Chris displays some creative dance moves then takes off in the middle of the crowd. Good thing Chris isn’t a rapper, he might be chainless after running into a crowd after a Hip Hop show like that. From Coldplay.com: Good afternoon. We have just uploaded the video for Lost! to the site. It was made by Mat Whitecross at the United Center in Chicago. Lost! will be released as a digital EP on November 10th, worldwide. Its artwork looks like this [below]...

Thanks for the news Crystal

I know it's not totally relevant but:

Looks like Coldplay's got a challenge at the MTV EMAs everyone

Britney Nominated Twice At MTV EMAs We did it! Britney fans have nominated Britney for the 2008 MTV Europe Music Awards! Britney is currently nominated for Best Act of 2008 as well as the coveted Album of the Year award according to MusicWeek.com! Britney will be competing against the likes of Alicia Keys ("As I Am"), Coldplay ("Viva La Vida or Death And All His Friends"), Duffy ("Rockferry") and Leona Lewis ("Spirit") for Album of the Year. "The range of this year's finalists really does demonstrate the breadth of taste of the MTV audience," says MTV Europe Music Awards executive producer Richard Godfrey. It has not yet been announced if Britney will be nominated in her third category for Best Act Ever. The 2008 EMAs are set to air on November 6th of this year in Liverpool. This is not the only overseas affair Britney has ties to. ExtraTV.com has confirmed Britney will perform on British show X-factor later this year. "Yes, I think Britney Spears is going to perform on 'The X Factor,'" judge Simon Cowell revealed. When asked how Cowell managed to snag Spears, he replied, "We didn't GET her. She's got a record coming out. We have the number one show in England. It's the best show for her to perform on. We're absolutely thrilled to have her." Maybe she'll kill two birds with one stone and make a surprise appearance at the EMAs after her performance? One can dream...

She's just released her new single, so make sure all Coldplay fans vote

I'll be voting for both of them

I've been at there concert in Vienna last wednesday and it was great! more than great, it was perfect!!

[otherwise]

Wow, thanks for all the news and pictures Crystal.

Jack, that news bit about Britney really isn't relevant for this thread. If you just wanted to mention that she would be competing against Coldplay that would be okay, but a whole article probably isn't necessary.

Lucky you getting to go to a concert!

[Demy]

I'm so jealous of all of you.

[holding my heart]

Shut up.

Coldplay Roadie #42 - Blog #33 (feat. a Coldplaying member's banner!) Check out coldplay for a new blog entry: #42 shows you his bunker Sitting in the van outside the hotel in Budapest today reminds me that we're slipping gently into tour madness now. I'm not talking about hotel-trashing ad hell-raising, but the slightly punch drunk, hazy-minded feeling that tells you it'd be really nice to have some time off. It's slightly similar to sleep deprivation, in that everything begins to seem mildly amusing for no apparent reason. We're sitting in the van watching Kelly, one of our security chiefs stand at the door of Chris's van scanning each and every passer by to assess their potential trouble. This of course, is his job and he's one of the best. We're laughing not at him (unwise, given his size), we're laughing at his subjects. The hotel is right in the most beautiful part of town and consequently full of tourists. Most of them of retirement age. We begin to amuse ourselves by assigning a story to each passing couple of pensioners. "quick Kelly, grab 'em, they're from the Enquirer", "stop that woman going in the front door there, she's clearly going to go through the band's bins"...

[Demy]

Shut up.

I will go on til the day of the concert and beyond MWAHAHAH

Thanks for this new !

You'd better post all about in the fan experiences thread. Or else.
