Yes during festivals it can't exceed 1h30...

People were also able to watch the show on Belgacon TV, did someone record it or have you got the links on youtube cause I can't find anything?

They should and probably will play for longer on their own tour but Coldplay will most probably never play a two hour show. The whole layout and structure of their show makes sure that they dont stretch the show too long and everything flows.

I think that at some point they really have to. They'll always want to play songs of their last album and play the classics. There are like 10 classics now. Some songs can't even be cut (Yellow, Clocks, The Scientist,...)

I can see them cut a song like Clocks or The Scientist. After all, they rarely played Trouble on the two previous tours.

But I doubt we'll see much X&Y or VLV album cuts make the setlist in the future. I was actually surprised they played Cemeteries Of London on this tour. Didn't expect that. Wonder if it'll stick around in the setlist.

I do believe they'll scrap every song from X&Y except Fix You. And Trouble was never the classic that Clocks was. I don't think they'll ever get away with scrapping The Scientist or Clocks (although I wouldn't mind if they'd scrap Yellow

)

Noooooooooo! They shouldn't scrap Yellow! That's like, their signature song!

Outside of the UK, Trouble was the biggest Parachutes hit, so I never understood why they scrapped it. Although I do understand that having Trouble and The Scientist and Fix You in the setlist would be overkill. Same goes for having Talk, Speed Of Sound and Clocks all in the set I think.
