The links just say that it is an exclusive concert with an exclusive interview with the band before the concert.
Tickets will not be sold but can only be won.. They have moved the concert to "Folketeatret" ("The people's theatre") in order to let in more people. There are 1400 tickets all in all..
There is an age-limit of 18 years at this concert!

[hente44]

Actually the age limit is 20 years..

I really don't hope this means they won't come to Norway when the real tour starts! Because I desperately need to see them again, and I'm only 17.

So they better visit Norway and do a proper gig :wink3:

And by the way, "Senkveld" is one of the worst shows in Norway, so expect an interview where they only want to know about why Rihanna featured on the album and how she was like.

Hmm. One page says 18 and the other one 20.. so.. Hmm.. Don't know which is right..

[hente44]

Well I'm too young anyways.. :\

Where exactly did you see that? Because the last update on www.facebook.com/coldplay is this

[Mimixxx]

It might have gone to people in Norway first, the Oracle mentioned that there's a feature on FB that allows you to do that.

I checked on twitter and people have receieved message via email:

http://twitter.com/#!/BrunSame/status/132056347939307522 (http://twitter.com/#%21/BrunSame/status/132056347939307522)

Guess it must be Chris, Jonny said he was sick yesterday.

[Tash]

That sucks! I hope that whoever is sick gets better soon

[Tash]

I found this (http://www.dn.se/kultur-noje/musik/coldplay-staller-in-i-oslo)

English translation:

Cancelled concerts in Scandinavia seems to be an infectious disease of global artists right now. First it was Rihanna who set up both in Malmö and Stockholm. Now it's Coldplay who are forced to withdraw a planned launch concert in Folketeateret in Oslo on Friday. The reason is that singer Chris Martin has become ill.

- They were playing in Germany yesterday, but now he is ill and can not play. We know no more, says Emma Finn Kvist, promotions manager at the record company EMI to Expressen.

The idea behind the concert was that the band would launch his new album "Mylo Xyloto". Tickets for the concert have been distributed through various media and websites. The concert was also filmed and broadcast on TV or online in the Nordic countries.

[nancyk58]

Thanks for posting the review from Dagbladet.no - a quick translation of the review.

The atmosphere is always good when you are in Coldplay's company. A concert with likeable Chris Martin & Co. is more enjoyable than impressive.

The exclusive and intimate concert with one of the world's biggest bands on a small stage was very nice.

The original concert should have taken place in the theatre Folketeatret at the beginning of November, but was cancelled due to illness.

The band was in a very good form and in high spirit and played for 70 minutes before an enthusiastic audience. Coldplay played songs from their entire career.

The Brits have an impressive back catalogue - their hits invite to sing-along and involvement. Early in the concert 2 of Coldplay's biggest hits - Yellow + In My Place - were played. The atmosphere was very good.

2 moderators from Norwegian TV2 introduced the band. The concert was filmed and will be shown / televised in all of the Nordic countries at Christmas.

Chris Martin is very nice and down-to-earth. His communication with the audience was very direct and easy with a twinkle.

Coldplay's latest album is good workmanship, but it is not Coldplay's best album, but good enough for Coldplay to keep their well-deserved star status.

Coldplay must accept that they are considered U2 light.

Apparently Coldplay are not trying to distance themselves from being a soft variant of U2. The band build up their songs with epic key figures: Their guitar figures and sound are very much like the Edge's.

Coldplay is a band mastering minor stages better than the really big ones - or so it seems. Consequently, the concert at the Central Stage was a little scoop for us who were there. The atmosphere at the Central Stage was very good, and the audience sang along.

The band played i.a. Viva la Vida, Paradise and Violet Hill - as well as extras like Fix You and Every Teardrop is a Waterfall.

It was as we could hope for: A charming frontman and a band in top form who made sure that the audience had a solid and good experience.

[nancyk58]

Lovely pictures - the look in Chris' eyes in the yellow picture. LOL

[jeremyy]

wow those pictures are epic. can't wait to see the whole show on tv.

[viva4life]

No Problem! Hope to find some videos soon!

[CPRani]

we're weren't aloud to film or take pictures at all because it was a TV-show, so I really doubt it :(

[Lu'kaa]

Those pictures are incredible, thank you!

[MartinFan]

Lovely pictures - the look in Chris' eyes in the yellow picture. LOL




He's so yummy... and thanks for the translation, Nancy:kiss:

[Dany93]

I get goosebumps simply looking at the pics :stunned: :heart:

[viva4life]

Bummer on videos! Can't wait for Fridays clip

[Phoebeo]

The gig was awesome. Do anybody know when they are sending it in tv?

[nancyk58]

You're welcome, Tracey. :kiss:

[nancyk58]

Glad that you had a good experience. Let us know more.

As to TV, the Norwegian newspaper wrote that the Coldplay concert will be televised in all Nordic countries at Christmas (but that is still vague).

I read (around the originally planned concert that was cancelled) that in Denmark TV2 ZULU will show the concert "later this year".

So likely between 22 and 27 in Denmark from TV2 Zulu.

[Jenjie]

anyone know the setlist please?

[CPRani]

http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6040/6390593803_6b76a26f4f_b.jpg

Photos from yesterday's Oslo show
24 November 2011 11:11 am
We took some snaps as Coldplay performed for Nordic fans
http://coldplay.com/images/news_line.png

Good morning. Yesterday, we went along to see Coldplay perform a Nordic album launch show in Oslo, Norway. Naturally, we took some snaps...

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp31.jpg
Hello and welcome to the Sentrum Scene in Oslo, where Coldplay will perform at 3.45pm, by which time it will already be dark

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp2.jpg
Chris and Jonny head onto the stage for a look at the venue before doors open

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp3.jpg
Will joins them and they pull faces. Not exactly sure why

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp4.jpg
Chris graffiti'd piano

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp5.jpg
The view from the mic. Sentrum Scene has a capacity of around 500. It is, therefore, "intimate"

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp6.jpg
Will has a little bash on his drums, while Bash checks his cymbal

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp7.jpg
There are probably some really cryptic messages in here

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp8.jpg
The front row arrives, they're very pleased, and we celebrate by taking a terrible photo

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp9.jpg
The Viva bell, fully MXified

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp10.jpg
And so to the dressing room...

The dressing room

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp11.jpg
The band have a quick warm-up before the show

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp12.jpg

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp13.jpg

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp15.jpg
Then it's time for the traditional pre-show huddle

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp16.jpg
And the post-huddle thing where they all throw their hands into the air

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp17.jpg
Standing by the door to the stage

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp18.jpg
After you, Mr Martin

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp19.jpg

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp22.jpg
The show was being filmed for broadcast on TV in Scandinavia, so there was no photographers' pit to stand in (yes, we're getting excuses in early for these live pictures...)

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp24.jpg

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp25.jpg

The view from where Jonny's guitar tech, Matt McGinn, stands

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp29.jpg
Pretty sure that's a mid-drumming face

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp30.jpg
At this point we decide to go and take some pictures from the balcony, which involves having to leave the venue by a side door and walk around the side to the front entrance

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp32.jpg
The cloakroom gives you an idea of the temperature in Oslo (brrrrr)

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp33.jpg
The view from the balcony. No, you're right, it wasn't really worth the walk

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp34.jpg
That's quite an angle Chris has got himself into

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp35.jpg
Viva from the balcony

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp36.jpg
Back at the front (again, having wandered around outside for a bit)

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp37.jpg
We'll let those of you in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark know when the show is being broadcast

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp38.jpg
The front row, having a lovely time

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp39.jpg
There are an awful lot of corridors at Sentrum Scene. A monster apparently lives at the end of this one

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp40.jpg
And you thought backstage was glamourous (that's the door to the stage again)

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp42.jpg
Oslo gives a mighty roar of approval as the band finish what's been a rollicking, hour-long set

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp14.jpg
Here's what they played

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp43.jpg
It might be cold outside, but as you'll gather it's pretty blooming hot inside

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp44.jpg
Careful Jonny, there's a monster down there

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp45.jpg
After the show, the band do a few filmed interviews for the various Nordic TV stations which will be broadcasting the gig. This one was, we're told, based on Twitter and was quite amusing...

http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa228/soundcontent/cp/oslocp47.jpg
It's time to head home, but first the band sign some autographs for the folks who've waited in the cold and helped make it an extremely enjoyable visit for Coldplay

Don't know why chris said later that they had made a fool of themselves or something like that.

Rania, I'm sad I couldn't be there with you. I hope and believe my choice will benefit me in the long term. I hope I'll get an opportunity like this later.
I'm so happy you got the chance to go, though! :hug:
