:vuvuzela :

Thanks.

Heinrich42 · 13-11-2012, 09:04 PM

NOOOO!!! WHYYYYYY??? THEY MUST COME TO RIOOOOOO!!!

There are only three possible explanations to the absence of Rio there:

1 - The gig's details with the companies are not yet completely set, and they're going to announce the Rio gig later.
2 - They think that their concert at Rock in Rio covered the city and they don't need to come again.
3 - They have been contacted and are going to play at Rock in Rio 2013, but it hasn't been announced yet.

I really hope it's (1), but in case it's (2)...

DEAR MR. WILL CHAMPION, I know you lurk here sometimes, so if you're reading this, would you kindly consider (and tell you bandmates) that the gigs you have been playing in the MX Tour are nothing like the one you played at RiR? Okay? I want to see a stadium filled with glowing xylobands and hear DLIBYH live as well. Also, a festival concert is not as awesome as a band's concert (alone).

EDIT: And if they don't announce a date in Rio, São Paulo here I come!

maryterch · 13-11-2012, 09:16 PM

So sad they´re not coming to Colombia...

Haruka · 13-11-2012, 09:20 PM

^ this
RiR concerts are nothing like solo ones, I want my xyloband!

DiOli05 · 13-11-2012, 09:21 PM

Congrats to you guys!

I am almost sure they will announce more dates! only like 7 concerts does not make much sense...

even though they played that many last time :/

Arantza · 13-11-2012, 09:21 PM

Ahhhhhh!

This is great!

I was prepared to travel to Mexico city in case they didn't come to Guadalajara, but they are coming back!!

And if the world ends on december, at least I can die in peace knowing that I was going to see them again!

I honestly think this is it. There's really not much time left to announce more dates.

Whats so shocking about that? Mexico has always been the latinamerican country where Coldplay plays the most and where the shows are sold out in just a few hours...

the shocker is about Brazil, Hugo. I'm not diminishing mexicans coldplayers, but we should have as much as dates as you guys

I guess the main problem for Rio is the venue, there's only one stadium availble for big size concerts, Engenhão (Maracanã is under renovation for World Cup 2014).

Prospector · 13-11-2012, 09:41 PM

^ Zequinha is a tiny little stadium compared to the other venues, so I guess they could play on another place

Haruka · 13-11-2012, 10:07 PM

but we don't have much options here, Apoteose will be booked for Carnival and I doubt they play in small arenas like HSBC Arena or Citibank Hall...

I will hope that they announce more dates

DiOli05 · 13-11-2012, 10:24 PM

Costa Rica's National Stadium has capacity for 35 000 people... and still not in there

Prospector · 13-11-2012, 10:40 PM

^ The problem is not the size of the stadium, but the amount of people you can put there selling tickets at the price they sell. I'm pretty sure if the concert was on one of our big stadiums it wouldn't sell out.
