[6-Dec-2011] Radio 2 Gig: Coldplay @ Dingwalls, London, UK (15-Dec-11 Broadcast Date) tickets available from 24-nov

Mimixxx · 17-11-2011, 11:25 AM

According to Music Week and Radio 2 chief Jeff Smith, Coldplay will play an intimate gig at Dingwalls on 15 December for Radio 2.

However Coldplay are scheduled to perform in Germany that day so...??

"Meanwhile, Music Week can today reveal that Coldplay’s In Concert special will take place at intimate London venue Dingwalls on Thursday, December 15 – a space the Oxford band first played in 1998 as they tried to fund their 2000 debut, Parachutes.

That will be followed on Thursday, December 22 by a Christmas special In Concert with Michael Bublé, with support from X Factor finalist Rebecca Ferguson.

“With Coldplay, it’s taking them back to kind of where they came from. Although it’s not their hometown, it will have the same feel as Elbow in Manchester,” said BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music head of music Jeff Smith.

“Michael Bublé will end this year’s season of 12 In Concert events. The pretext is that it will very much have a Christmas feel.”

Will Young will play Radio 2’s first December In Concert gig on the 1st of the month."

It could be that it's being broadcast on the 15th and recorded before, as the lovely Denise just pointed out to me. We'll see!

So I checked out the listings for Dingwalls.

The only days that both the venue and CP are both free are Thur 8, Sat 10 or Tues 13.

Although Tue 6 is listed as "private event" which could be it

London Dingwalls show for BBC Radio 2 announced
17 November 2011 12:31 pm
Band to return to the venue of their 1998 show

Good afternoon. We're very pleased to announce that Coldplay will perform a special Christmas show at London's Dingwalls venue for BBC Radio 2 In Concert on Thursday, 15 December. The show will be broadcast live on Radio 2 (which you can listen to online worldwide). The performance will also be filmed and shown live via the Red Button and on the Radio 2 site, where it will be available to watch until 22 December.

The free tickets for the show will be given away via bbc.co.uk/radio2 from 24-28 November.

Dingwalls is the Camden venue which was hired by Coldplay's first manager (and now fifth member) Phil Harvey while he was still a student, for a Coldplay show on 25 May 1998. The money raised that night helped pay for the recording of the Safety EP.

Maybe it'll be suspiciously dark and we won't really be able to see anyone's faces, just the sound of the band live (from Cologne) and Coldplay shaped people mincing about.

From twitter

To clarify, the London Dingwalls show for @BBCRadio2 will broadcast on 15 Dec (and be recorded a few days earlier) http://cldp.ly/cpbbcr2 A

Please let it be between 8 and 12 December!

SueDeNimes · 17-11-2011, 01:38 PM

They should rephrase the announcement text then... that says "live broadcast".

Tash · 17-11-2011, 01:42 PM

Oooooh, Christmas show

Too bad I've used a lot of my karma and am not very lucky with lotteries

Lu'kaa · 17-11-2011, 02:00 PM

I just hope it's not the 13th, we want a fresh and fine band in Paris the 14th

Mimixxx · 17-11-2011, 02:12 PM

I think that "Private Event" listed for Tue 6 Dec is most likely.
