On behalf of all those who are not getting an permanent account today, whether it's because you're broke, or you wanted those new shoes more, or your fairygodperson was like 'yeah, no', or you were just like '$150! Are you taking the piss?' -- I'd like to offer my heart-felt solidarity. I feel you! I think we all deserve some porn or something.

Someone should get on that.

Exactly! I mean excuse me but I can barely afford the $25 dollars it takes for the one year account, yeah right like I can get $150. Thank you for the pron, I needed it tonight!!!!

Can I tell the future like will I be here five years from now.

I want a new DVD-R, and a new computer (mines is 4 years old and that means it qualifies for the ancient category), and Tivo, and, and, LOL

Give me the porn.

I would love to support LJ to the tune of that $150.

However, the cable, electric, gas and mobile phone companies all protested vehemently.

With their superior numbers and unfair advantages... well.

The utilities won.

Dammit!

That's exactly it. This album is full of songs that are wannabe rock anthems. And you and I, having seen them a billion times between us, know that they thrive in small clubs. Coachella was the most boring Coldplay set I've ever attended, and that was the sixth time I've seen them. First time I wasn't in the front row, too. I felt completely disconnected from the band, the music and the fans. The live DVD is the same way--I can't even watch it all the way through. The beauty that is their music just doesn't translate to the larger arena/amphitheatre setting. I feel sorry for people who didn't see Coldplay two or more years ago, because they are truly missing out. You know, I read in some article that Coldplay "isn't known for great live performances" or something to that effect, and that surprised the shit out of me. Cos all the shows I've been to have been fantastic. But then I thought about Coachella and agreed.

You totally have it in a nutshell, the wannabe rock anthems, the incredibly craptacular nature of Coachella (Jesus fuck that was such a bad performance), and the fact that they don't necessarily play lifestyle music, but their music is quieter and less brassy. It's more subtle. You need to be indoors, with proper acoustics, and not in the back of the ampitheatre. *That* is a bad experience. That will make you think they're bad live, even though they're not bad live, *we* know that.

Also, I don't know if you've seen all of these yet (http://www.livejournal.com/users/theantimodel/94298.html), but the Ewan clips are fantastic.

I wish I could take you up on offer #1, but I don't have the connection speed, but offer #2 I'm there.

Heh, I find this drama about permanent account thing quite overstated, but *G* I like your reaction! Now that is constructive approach! Yay for more porn!
