Einslive is a radiostation but I don't think they're broadcasting it. Maybe only the interview if there is one.

On the german fansite forum sb has posted the tickets (It's the 3rd post):

[owenrees_73]

[owenrees_73]

Ok! I was there 2night and it was a blast.. The new songs are great..

Chris had a blue and a red stripe around 2 fingers
might that help? :)

what a tease to come on and talk about tonights gig, and then not go over it?! :lol:

[Josh Pearson]

I agree

[owenrees_73]

ok heres what she said: FIX YOU & TALK!

Coldplay played a secret gig yesterday (Wednesday 7th April) in Cologne, Germany, powered by the Radio Station 1Live.

The setlist was:

1. Square One
2. Politik
3. Speed Of Sound
4. God Put A Smile Upon Your Face
5. Warning Sign
6.Talk
7. X&Y
8. Yellow
9. Low
10. The Scientist
11. Til Kingdom Comes
12. Clocks
13. What If
*********************
14. In My Place
15. A Message
16. Fix You

Footnotes:
"Speed of Sound" is the right choice for being the new single. "Politik" was (again) great, but at the wrong spot, because it took some of the power of "Speed of Sound". "What if" is the strongest Coldplay song on the upcoming tour. It takes a big piece of "The Scientist" with some more spice. Great! The girls loved "Til Kingdom Come", more or likely an "apple-is-goin-to-bed"-song, but still cute. "Fix You" was surprising and could also become a single. A lovely evening and worth all waiting for 13hours for the tickets. The "Twisted Logic" Tour can begin...

...and the CD has to be released, the waiting hurts ;)

[RWVarnell]

:smug: Very cool, thanks for the link to the pics.

[owenrees_73]

apparently talk was in the set but they didnt play it!

[Elm]

but there was a new song before x&y! for sure!

[owenrees_73]

really and you dont know what it was?

[owenrees_73]

really and you dont know what it was?

[owenrees_73]

could it have been white shadows or something like that instead then. what was it like?

[Elm]

yeah
it was white shadows i think
ur right!

[Jan]

:( I was hoping for twisted logic or something.

[Elm]

nope sorry, it was white shadows, i guess..
i am sure to remember these words..
