I am BESIDE myself with excitement. My husbands's parents will be visiting us in Australia, so they can look after our kids. Looks like a Coldplay MASSIVE roadtrip is in order. We are planning on flying from Australia to South America for the week so we can go to the Rio and Buenos Aires shows (And Santiago if I have my way). SO EXCITED I can hardly speak!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D
(Im using most of my Absolute Radio prize money to pay for my flights after I pay the excess on my car insurance from my accident :) )

LOL no>>> a learner driver slammed into the back of my Volkswagen. He does not have insurance , so I am SO annoyed, I have to pay the excess....even though it was not my fault.
I would love to take ALL Aussies with me to share the love!

Lucky lucky! I've been planning all year on going whenever it was announced, but realistically, it ain't going to happen.

Great if everything works out for you. Still battling with Mexico myself as I would prefer going to Brazil and Argentina but the tour plan there doesn't leave much time to see rio or Buenos Aires which is a shame as Rio is brilliant.
However Lucy can you please please in the future just write in existing topcis as I (and I am sure others too) find it rather annoying that you have to open a new topic for everything you want to say.
Thanks,
P.

what about the live thread about Rio and BS???
Nothing to do with hard - it is common practice in forums ( not just here) to put things in existing thread and not open new topics for everything.

Lucy, HIT THE IGNORE BUTTON, some of us would never had known your wonderful luck, if you hadn't of posted a new thread:kiss: Have a great time!!!!!!!!!!

Agree with MartinFan. That poster isn't a mod or admin, so....they need not be playing "board monitor."

^ I didn't know you had to be a mod/admin to ask a courtesy to someone :thinking:
People cool down, I agree with Petra, I don't see the need to open 1000 threads for everything that happen to someone, it's already hard to find the interesting threads, if everyone starts opening new threads for "OMG I'm going there" or "OMG I met the band" it's gonna be even worse.
I'm sure people would be glad to say they're happy for the poster in the proper threads :wink:
but anyway, carry on, I will do the same next time then, instead of relegating my stories in hidden threads read by no one :P

Honestly I have to agree with Petra and Denise. :\
I don't want to spoil the excitement for you but I guess if everyone would start opening threads the forum (esp. the News one) will get flooded with threads which are 'unnecessary'.
Like Denise mentioned, really interesting or important news are already burried easily so it's kind of hard keeping up to date with everything. :(
But great that you got the spare money to travel that far :)
Enjoy the shows!

hey Lucy, I plan to go to Rio and Sao Paulo. Maybe could we meet in Rio? It would be so great!
and I love your beautiful country!
do we need this thread?
btw, they're not coming to Santiago so probably if you come here you won't see them

I'm almost jealous except that I get to see Chris solo in three weeks--but have fun meeting the band again, as I know you will somehow get backstage.
