    I think their music fits way better with smaller audiences. CP's music always has been very emotional and up close (Elevation-style lol).


  2. yeah that's what I mean...they used to be so happy, now they're talking about death and ghosts and all...

    what does 'a smaller audience' mean?


  4. well I don't think that songs like The Scientist, Don't Panic, Trouble, A Warning Sign, Fix You, The Hardest Part, Talk or In My Place are very happy at all...


  5. lol...just less people in the crowd

    Play a smaller setlist, smaller crowd, more gigs in total and they make the same ammount of money. Makes the tour immediately way longer and probably way better.

    aren't CP playing only arenas this tour?


  7. so Mark thinks that MSG was a small venue for U2 during Elevation Tour, where they played very intimate and emotional gigs, but it's too big for Coldplay?

    This also means 3 night stands in cities. Smaller sets means shorter shows, so the shows have to cost less. Also variation of sets wouldnt be any good.
