And which band that actively produces music still could? U2 and that's without even trying Oh U2 who have barely reached half of Coldplays sales since Coldplay were formed? Irish bands are always going to huge and sell out in America, anybody that doesn't realise knows nothing about music or America. They sell out in america because they put the work in years ago you fucking cretin - playing dozens of gigs in places Chris Martin hasn't even heard of. If its about sales T-Keith has fucking slaughtered you - - if its about tours I've just fucking slaughtered you - why don't you just give up now? How has anybody slaughtered me you shit-stabbing little cunt, who is going to sell more Albums than Coldplay this year? Nobody, therefore they are todays biggest band in the world. Now fuck off. Green Day and U2 - next?

Coldplay have sold 3 gigs out at the o2 Arena. Why wouldn't they just do Wembley instead? I'm fairly sure that getting as many people into one gig as possible isn't top of their agenda. Having seen them at a festival, because they know their music isn't big enough for a larger crowd.

A band much bigger than coldplay - one of the biggest in the world.

When they can do that on ONE tour come back and talk to me - until then fuck off.

Evidence with number of dates/venues please.

Over 7 albums and 18 years They played to 120000 people over 2 days at a UK gig. Not a festival. Their Own gig. Coldplay couldn't do that. The 18 years bit just states the power of the major label. Coldplay couldn't do that? Coldplay could sell ANY venue that they play at out in minutes, if you even think any otherwise you're displaying immense stupidity. Why let your dislike of a band lead to you trying to belittle them? They sold their UK tour out in minutes yesterday btw. Could they do a major US tour and sell out more than one arena for multiple nights in all of the major states? X Factor winners sell out UK tours in minutes. Decent band but I can name 10 who are a lot bigger.

First step if you can't do what Matt suggested is to get it setup with a new HD with an operationg system - you could then have the old disk as the secondary drive. Getting data back should be feasible but it might cost - I bought a data recovery tool last year which was about £30 which worked wonders. You can also get it done by some computer shops but I don't know how much it costs (and defintely not PC world if its porn )

I might have gone if they were coming to Newcastle. ...or weren't being supported by Manic Street bloody Preachers. I wouldn't mind seeing Coldplay but wouldn't sign up for that out on principle for them being above the far superior Manics.

If its oldish you need to be careful as most HDs nowadays are SATA whereas older PCs will use IDE (different connectors). You can still get IDE drives but you won't be able to get one with an OS on it - you'll need to install it and transfer your info.

I also love Monkey Business/Life but have no guilt whatsoever on that one.

There are at least two things about India for which in an idea world they would be completely ostracised from the international community - the caste system and this bias towards male children which results in countless murders and suffering. When Apartheid was the big cause in the 80s I read an article which showed that the Caste system was worse but of course it was denounced as racist.

I sometimes have to stop and watch those - its amazing how many blokes those women shag with no thought whatsoever (no excuse for the men of course). I also have to confess to watching 2 or 3 of the last series of How to look good naked - I think what Gok does for those women is quite moving at times.

My take was always that he couldn't get over the disappointment of 95/96 - I think buying Shearer was Hall's attempt to reinvigorate him but I don't think it worked.

That's one story that has been raised before - the strain on Gerry Francis' face when we beat Spurs is another, the PLC is another.....

Nice to see a divine righter saying that Lampard and Terry should sign for a proper team if they want to win the CL.

Next week.

Makes you sound like one of those on tap for Sky outside SJP 24/7 type mongs

Overall I agree - though the idea of "popping in" in June to choose a seat isn't practical for me. Having said that a couple of my mates moved to the east stand last year (because of dodgy knees and being lazy fat twats) so I could just bunk in with them.

Looks like I'll be moving - I'm in the Milburn towards the Leazes which I gather will either be the family enclosure or close to it. A move back to the east stand where I used to sit 84-91 could be on the cards.

The difference between government attitudes to drugs and drink as described by Alex imo are: 1. No big business interests in drugs 2. Daily Mail readers (see "sending a message" bollocks)

The result was terrible but last night surely can't be compared to the Milan/liverpool 3-3.

I have a lot of football grudges - some of them are sad and some of them I'm sort of proud of. I know its not a well recognised fact and it didn't make the slightest difference to the result but I still think Anelka's goal for Arsenal in the final in 98 was controlled with his hand. Replays have never proved it but I'd despised the twat ever since. This came to mind when he strode forward for his pen. I still can't bring myself to be "happy" Man U won but I did take pleasure in Chelsea losing.
