Guest BigThompers Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I'm going to Sheffield personally. Was going to go up to Glasgow, as it'd be more practical on a Saturday night - Sheffield is on a Sunday, so pulling a sicky on the 8th of December is very much on the cards.

Fact not opinion sloop john yes but it does not validate anything about an artist. relativism, as i have said before, is a classic foil for bad arguments to hide behind.

I'd say U2 are bigger, even though they're still naff. Actually, I can think of about a dozen bands who are bigger that Cerldplay. My mate at work argued this point. I pointed out that Coldplay were formed in 1997. Both bands in this time have released 3 albums. Coldplays worldwide sales from these 3 albums amass to 30mill+, and U2's is half of this. You can't really take U2's prior sales into consideration, wouldn't be fair considering the downloading era etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muse played Wembley stadium(their own two day festival) and when they did they really did something for rock and made bolder statements than Coldplay ever will. Plus don't be blind to the fact that Coldplay wouldn't have been a quarter as big without all this 'Fairtrade/Poverty' malarkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
