LA Times review:

Coldplay gets all rock-star at the Forum - Los Angeles Times

oktobergirl · 07-16-2008, 03:25 AM

just got back from the show (2nd night at the forum). Wow! That was an awesome show. It was well paced throughout and the energy from the crowd was crazy. I loved it.

The encore brought the house down.

Do they play The Escapist after Death and his fuckin mates?

I'm beginning to really warm to this now actually. Great album. Lost! and Strawberry Swing are my two favourites.

I wanted to split the three doubled tracks, but Audacity shits itself when you import a WMA (ie whatever the itunes equivalent of that is).

I learnt how to do it on Itunes today......click on Get Info and then options and then convert the particular song to ACCC or whatever AFTER you have changed the start and stop time's. Works a treat.

couple of questions/observations:

1. how much were the shirts?

2. the tote bags look lame

3. terrible design for the mugs, or are they supposed to be tea cups?

4. a bib? really?

elevated_u2_fan · 07-16-2008, 10:24 AM

Think of how many fewer shirts you'd ruin!

I have the poncho for that...

**Bonochick** · 07-16-2008, 10:35 AM

Coldplay should be selling ponchos.

Maybe I could sew* a few shirts together?

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.

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...

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
