we were famous!

it's Postcards day!

"Good afternoon. Just before Christmas, the fine folks at Coldplay fansite Coldplaying.com came up with the terrific idea of sending the band postcards from across the world. Hundreds of fans did just that. Below is Roadie #42's film of the band reading them at The Bakery a couple of weeks ago (soundtracked, of course, by the song which inspired the project, Postcards From Far Away)."

Yeah, I remember checking the board in the morning and you had already set up a thread to brainstorm..... people posted like 20 pages on it overnight, it took me forever to catch up
