Hello,

I did it this weekend. I bought tickets for their concert in the Netherlands on 1 July. It's going to be a double bill with Live and with Supergrass as 'special act' and Nada Surf as 'support act'. Don't care that much for Live (they have some good songs, but others I'm not that fond of) and I don't know Nada Surf, but Coldplay and Supergrass should be cool. It's going to be a stadium sized concert (in the Goffert Park in Nijmegen, U2 played there in 1993 during their Zooropa tour), but I fear I won't be seeing them in anything less than a stadium in the coming years...

On 21 June REM in a small club and ten days later Coldplay. Woohoo!

How exciting! That's the show I'm going to so I'll have to get someone to record the broadcast.

Less than two weeks!!!!

[Edgeman]

[cujo]

Great Show from Calgary today... May 21st.

If you're interested, I wrote my review/thoughts of it in my journal...

cujo

The Music Rocks... pass it on.

 

[zonelistener]

I like The Music live. I will be happy to see them again.
Wasn't so impressed with the recorded stuff.

 

[DiGi]

thanks for the info chris.


oh and digi, where are the cd's you were burning for me ?

Well I figured you would want the Atlanta show so I got that one for you - it should be at my apt today. So soon Iris soon.

Oh and the Music is good live.

Oh and is everyone listening to Idlewild?

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

thanks digi, take your time.

as far as idlewild i have only heard one song of theirs and it is from the free cd that came with Q last year.

 

[DiGi]

fix that - on soulseek i am digirun and have alot of Bsides maybe i will rip all their albums as well for you all who are interested

 

[Sweet Tart]

i'm so scared that coldplay are going to cancel cause apparently SARS has flared up again in toronto.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

i hope they don't cancel.


but good news: how great is it that the stations here and in S. Alabama are playing The Scientist?! i was in Mobile, AL and the dj came on after The Scientist was played and said the song is one of the most requested songs on the hotline and that the video is fantastic. haha she was acting like she had first dibs and exclusive footage of the video. little does she know.

 

[browneyedgirl]

Two weeeks from today and I'll be seeing them again in Cleveland
and so soon after the first time ....I can't wait

 

[verte76]

Yeah, the stations in Birmingham are also playing "The Scientist". It's so cool!!!

 

[womanfish]

I just saw them in the probably the smallest venue on the entire tour. Bend, OR. About 6,000 people and I was in about the second row. Awesome. short, but awesome.

 

[DiGi]

I think Grady Cole was probably the smallest. 9:30 was also TINY. maybe 1500

I have some stuff for a few of you -

 

[zonelistener]

9:30 was smaller than Grady Cole! Grady Cole was more or less a H.S. gym - a big H.S. gym - but a H.S. gym.


I almost died the other day when I realized that my Coldplay tickets are in Minnesota, and I am seven driving hours away in Illinois - and I am not going to be in Minnesota until AFTER the Coldplay concert....no fear though - I fixed the whole situation with Ticketmaster.

 

[womanfish]

I know they've played some small ones, but I was referring more to their upcoming summer tour of amphitheaters and such. Most will probably be 10 to 20 thousand seaters.

 

[Sweet Tart]

12 days left.....i can't wait!.....please don't cancel.......ARRGGGGG!!!

i can't take it anymore.
