coldplay?

[Insomaniac]

I know, I think we are a dying breed!! Although if they were to play, it would be fair to say that the field would be packed, so I think there are more of us - but we're just brave enough to admit it!!

Fair enough they were great in the 90's but that was some time ago. Having watched the following video I can be sure that I will be elsewhere if they do play. With a headliner of this quality are we witnessing the end of Glastonbury? Whatever next? I shudder to think.

<Sits back and waits for the onslaught, I wonder if Coldplay fans have more of a sense of humour than U2 fans?>

[Redwinevino]

I really really hope not! Would be three headliners I don't care for

[abu hamster]

I'm not going to come on here and slag Coldplay down!

Each to there own There are many different stages and all of them will have equally good or better acts on them at that point!

I love Glasto!

not a massive fan, quite similar all their songs imo, but just stumbled upon a video on the glastonbury site

coldplays the track to it, a clue perhaps? or am i reading too much into it?

personally i think they are a bit too similar to U2, and variation part of what Glatonburys about

Talk is a U2 song...lovers in Japan reminds of U2, but other than that I think it's probably the scale of the songs that makes people draw comparisons...(that sounds like a load of b*llox!).

[oldbird]

Wow another person who would like to see Coldplay not many of us on here!

far too much time on my hands

I'm another one! Lets stand up and be counted!

[Langdale Wolf]

Plus me and the 3 people that are going with me to thats 6.5 people on here plus the 3 with me.

Coldplay are one of those bands people like to slag off. If they play the field will be rammed simple as.

[tazzyb]

You can add me to that too.

I'd be well chuffed if Coldplay played.

[Chazeboy]

pre 2005 i had never seen them, then i did and enjoyed them, so i would prob go back and see them. so you can add me, but it would very much be dependent on who else was playing at the same time

I wouldn't - can't bear Chris Martins' whiny vocal.

PS... Mr Wolf - the watcher has given me nightmares for the past 25+ years... your Avatar is terrifying me!

The Watcher was a good guy!

[Dan101]

You do know there will be other things to do at Glastonbury while the headliners are playing don't you?

[Dan101]

...so if U2 and Coldplay would be devastating...who could take the third to completely ruin your weekend??

[Redwinevino]

Christ I hope not

[danbailey80]

Coldplay are still a serious rumour and I just can't see them not making an appearance at the 40th anniversary....In some form I think they will play...

If the headliners are pretty much confirmed I can only assume it would a special guest slot or maybe open the festival Friday morning.. As they are such a large act I would assume that for crowd control they would play on the Pyramid stage...Or an acoustic slot at the park, (with special guests Noel for example ) These are my thoughts....

[russycarps]

and these are my thoughts:

Chris Martin is a helmet of biblical proportions.

Why does everyone seem to think Coldplay have any special link to Glastonbury? They don't. They are just another band who have had a handful of average performances.

Stop thinking they are anything special. They aren't.
