If I remember correctly they used to sell a raincoat years ago - it was "yellow"... get it?
They've always had some odd merchandise though, like the pint glasses with the robot from the talk video on them
it sounds like your sewing skills are equal to mine...
It is nice to see some creative (or at least semi-creative) merch available for sale though, aside from just the expected t-shirts and programs and posters.
I'm not big on sewing. I've been caught using tape to hem things.

Viva single sounds far far better live, because of the echo and clapping.
BTW, can I just say, I never thought I would see so much discussion on Coldplay!

so I was listening to XM this morning.. They are having 30 days of Coldplay on channel 51. So of course I was listening to this going into work and I heard a song I never heard before... Anyone hear of a song called "For You"? Is this a B-side and from what time frame?

it's off the Shiver Ep and I have mentioned several times now that it is one of my favourite B-Sides

And hopefully they notice too the current exchange rate of the pound/euro against the dollar. But I think they do, hence those US prices...

You are correct sir.
I'm listening to the Brixton Academy show right now, it's a pretty decent other than the standard early show fuck-ups and nervousness...
Is anyone else getting a little sick of In My Place though? I dunno, I loved it when it first came out but it hasn't aged well with me - it always seems like a low point in their live set for me and his voice tends to wobble a bit when he sings the "Yeeeeeeah" part...

I have a long list of songs I would rather hear than IMP... same goes for Yellow - these are Coldplay's "Pride" or "Streets"

I thought Life In Technicolour was Coldplay's Streets.

Exactly. Yellow is Coldplay's With or Without You.

So would I. Politik was so amazing on the last two tours and would fit with the passion and open emotion of the current record.

yes, ok technically this is correct,
I meant that IMP and Yellow were Coldplay's "Pride" and "Streets" in the sense that they get played way too many times live and should be retired or at the very least brought out every other tour or something...

I meant the same thing. I would happily swap WOWY for Streets any day. I think it should be retired.

most definitely was amazing! Saw the last two tours too..

I agree as well. Politik just takes off live and is much better live than on the AROBTTH in my opinion.

I think In My Place is absolutely gorgeous, but it loses a lot of that in a live setting (only partly do to Martin's falsetto issues).

If you listen very carefully, you can hear the call of Humpback whales during LIT. At least, that's what I've been imagining in my mind.

One of the weirdest/coolest items I've seen at a concert concession stand was a U2 condom during the Popmart tour. Needless to say I had to get one, and it's around somewhere.
So it's been a while for you then, has it?

Would I waste a U2 condom on just anyone? She has to be really speshal.
