Make your own 'Coldplay In The Studio' Stories!

RunForTheHills · 30-03-2008, 02:51 AM

Lets take our mind off all this waiting for the next Prospekt entry and focus on something more enjoyable.
Here you can post your own fictional stories about what the boys from Coldplay get up to in the studio. It can be written any way you like.

I'll kick things off by posting mine.

--------------

*March 29th, 2008. Chris is listening to 42 for the umpteenth time in the studio. Will enters.*

Will: Bad news Chris. The guys over at Coldplaying.com seem to think that we’ve sorted out the song order already. They’re so desperate that they even have a thread where they’re guessing what the track listing's going to be.

Chris: Eh? Whoever told them that we sorted out the track listing already? If its that damn Prospekt guy again I’m gonna kill him. And er... have any of the fans guessed the tracklisting?

Will: ... Well maybe if you stuck with the one I came up with yesterday, then yes.

Chris: I've told you a million times Will, Lost! is no longer an option. You ruined it remember?

Will: I merely tweaked the drumbeat Chris. Everyone else agrees it sounded better that way.

Chris: Whatever.

*Awkward Silence*

Will: You know, I think we should check who’s got access to that computer in the lounge. Maybe thats how he manages to sneak his notes onto our site!

Chris: Yeah well, I don’t think anyone will be stupid enough to bust in there when I’m around. Remember what I did to that Paparazzi guy?

Will: *sigh* Yes.

Chris: Yeah man. Nuff said.

*Jonny bursts into the studio*

Jonny: Chris! Its him! I think he’s trying to upload Violet Hill!

Chris: WTF...?!

Jonny: Its 40% uploaded already!

Chris: Shit! Will, pass me those drumsticks! Jonny, go and pull the plug or something!

Jonny: I can’t! As soon as he saw me coming he locked the door from the inside!

Chris: Well he's not getting out of there alive... lets go and sort him out boys!

*Chris, Will, and Jonny rush into the corridor and rush toward the lounge door. Guy is frantically trying to get the door unlocked*

Guy: I can't get in. Any suggestions?

Chris: Well, um... have you tried using a paper-clip?

Guy: ... its a keypad, Chris.

Chris: Oh yeah, of course.

Guy: And it looks like somehow he's changed the password.

Chris: How the f*** did he know the password?

Will: I always said 42 was too obvious. No one listens to me though.

Chris: Yeah well maybe if you kept that hip hop beat for “Lost” then maybe I would take your suggestions more seriously.

*Jonny peers in through the window*

Jonny: 60% uploaded!

Guy: I thought we got broadband installed last week! Why's it so slow? It isn't even going at 1 tenth of the speed!

Jonny: ... isn't that a good thing in this situation?

Chris: Ok guys, move aside. I'm gonna try talking some sense into this guy.

Will: I hope you don't plan to use those drumsticks the way you did last time Chris.

Chris: If you're talking about that Dani Filth guy, he started it.

*Chris puts his face to the window*

Chris: Phil! Come on man, you know how much pressure we all have had to endure. Don't make things worse!

Phil: It PROSPEKT to you! And what do you know about pressure? Have you been on coldplaying.com recently?

Chris: Yes actually, it helps me remember that half the world thinks I'm smoking hot.

Phil: I've had to endure months of constant critisism from those guys. Do you have any idea what they say about me? I'm not even going to go into it, its too painful to think about. Its driving me insane! And you know what else? They think I'm Eno, Chris. They think I'm FRICKING ENO!

Chris: Just... just calm down man. Just stop the upload, and we can talk about this.

*Turns to Guy* Any luck with the password?

Guy: I've tried every possible combination I can think of. Its not working.

Jonny: *Whispers to Guy* Didn't you write that password hacker program thing? You know, the one you used to unlock Chris' personal file of those revealing Gwyneth pictures?

Guy: Oh yeah that's true! Maybe I can hook it up to the keypad... I'll be right back.

Chris: Where's Guy off too?

Jonny: Erm... I think he knows how to unlock the door. He'll be back.

Chris: *Puts his face to the window* Phil, comon man! Stop this craziness!

Phil: I'm not doing it! All these guys are asking is for one, solid piece of evidence that we're actually making an album. Is that too much to ask? I think not!

*Looks at computer screen* 80%! there's no stopping it now!

Chris: *Turns to Will and Jonny* If Guy doesn't come back soon, I'm breaking this flipping door down.

Jonny: He'll be back soon Chris, lets not get too ahead of ourselves.

Will: You mind if I can have my drumsticks back now?

Chris: They'll come in handy soon enough. Just you wait.

Phil: 90%! Mwahahaha!

Chris: Prospekt you bastard! Stop the f***ing upload!

Phil: Not in a million years, Chrissy boy!

Chris: Thats it. I'm going to kill him.

Jonny: Wait! What did Phil just say?

Chris: What does it matter? Move out of the way lads...

Jonny: No wait! He said a million. Could that be the password?

Will: Let me try...

*Will types in 1,000,000 on the keypad.*

Chris: Well? Anything?

Will: Try turning the door handle, Chris.

Chris: Right.

*Chris bursts into the lounge. He arms the drumsticks. Prospekt turns and faces him.*

Phil: You can't do this! I'm PROSPEKT!!!

Chris: No. You're Phil. Now get out of me way.

Phil: Over my dead body!

Chris: So be it.

*Chris starts fighting Phil with the drumsticks, in an epic battle so awesome that such awesomeness is only equalled in lightsaber duels in Star Wars*

Will: No!!! My drumsticks!

Jonny: Where's my mobile? I'm so recording this!

*Guy enters with his hacking device*

Will: About time you showed up.

Guy: Oh man! Hacking the door open would have been so much cooler. Wait... is that Chris giving Prospekt a wedgie?

Phil: AAAAAAAARRRGGHHHH!!!

Chris: You feeling the pressure now, Phil?

Jonny: Chris, its 95%!

Chris: Jonny quick! Stop the upload!

Jonny: Right!

*Runs over to the computer*

Jonny: Argh! I'm pressing cancel and its not working!

Chris: Try ALT F4!

Jonny: Damn, still nothing!

Will: Wait... thats because its my Mac!

Jonny: Well how do I stop it then?

Will: Just let me have a look...

Jonny: No, there's no time. I'm just gonna smash it on the floor!

Will: No!!! Don't!!!

Chris: Yes go for it Jonny boy!

Will: Nooooooooo!!!

*With impressive strength, Jonny smashes Will Mac on the floor. Will screams.*

Phil: Damn.

Chris: YES!

Will: No! All of my files are LOST!

Phil: Oh for the Reign Of Love can you stop wedgieing me now?

Unknown Voice: Glass Of Water anyone?

*Everyone turns around. Brian Eno enters with a bag full of bottled mineral water. His expression changes to one of amazement and disgust.*

Eno: Chris! Are you giving Phil a WEDGIE?

*Chris' eyes widen and his eyebrows rise. To be continued.*

Haha, thanks

It was fun writing it. Basically just made it up as I went along.

winigwl · 30-03-2008, 03:10 AM

ahaha! that was great! how long did that take you?

ApproximatelyInfinite · 30-03-2008, 03:11 AM

look who should be the screenwriter now?! you're going to put me out of the industry someday.

unfortunately, i'm really only good at drama. which totally does not fit here. but i'm going to try and write one in my head for next week because it looks like too much fun. even though i can't be funny on paper.

Famous Old Painter · 30-03-2008, 03:13 AM

Never really done something like this before, but thanks

I'm sure you're awesome at what you write. I look forward to your story (if you have time to write one)
And I just realised I used the wrong "your" in the thread title. damn.

ApproximatelyInfinite · 30-03-2008, 04:00 AM

i'm officially 100% distracted because i'm writing my own coldplay studio screenplay story thingy.

even though it's detrimental to my russian history grade, it's the most fun i've had in a while.

RunForTheHills · 30-03-2008, 04:01 AM

^HELL YES!

Can't wait.

ApproximatelyInfinite · 30-03-2008, 04:15 AM

probably not going to be posted for a few days, though. it needs more of a plot. and more of my time. oy vey.

random question: did you guys just change your clocks for british summertime over there? all the times on the board are all messed up for me by an hour.

RunForTheHills · 30-03-2008, 04:17 AM

Yeah, its now 4:15 AM over here. Sucks big time.
I'm guessing it'll be the same fore you in a couple of hours?
I should have referred to that in my story

ApproximatelyInfinite · 30-03-2008, 04:26 AM

it's only abour 11:30 over here. oh GOD, i'm so screwed for my paper. luckily i hit a little wall in my CP story, so i can leave that for a few mins.

haha, and in my story, time and date plays a part, and i actually took into account the time difference! too bad it requires a tiny bit of research...
