Yep. Most of their CD sales will be at Tesco or Kmart.

Blandshire.

Taking the bands style out of the equation... Apparently it was one of the best if not the best concert this Country has ever put on in regards to visual and sound technical interaction..... Source Music Journalists on the media here. Lots of experienced people in awe of what happened last night. A quantam leap from Floyd at their best apparently.

Must have been good by the sounds of things. They had the Etihad Manager on all the news radio stations here explaining how it all worked. I'm no big fan of Coldplay, but by the sounds of things I've missed out on something truly spectacular.

I'd like to hear what the band themselves have to say about it now.... sounds like they surpassed themselves.

If the show ended with the band being fed to lions I would sit through what you have described.

I will have to keep an eye open for them playing here next, I have unfortunately missed them a couple of times but will do my utmost to see them next time around. They are one of the biggest bands in the world for good reason and their stage show is supposed to be worth the money on it's own.
