I'll just put it this way: Viva La Vida isn't even close to A Rush of Blood to the Head...
Argh, I disagree entirely lol. Love the guitarwork on AROBTTH but Viva La Vida just feels so much more complete and polished and, to me, better - but hey, that's my opinion ...
I think Yeah means the news about U2 after HTDAAB. There were reports back then stating the band would quickly release a new album because there was so much material left. They didn't release anything...
I think Viva is a lot like Achtung.....they've even referred to their first 3 albums as a trilogy, plus the tour is really similar to Zoo TV.

EDIT: not sure if it was a live show or not... oops!

Good morning. On Saturday, Coldplay will play a special concert for the BBC, which will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 2. The show will take place from 7-8pm, with build-up on both Radio 2 and Radio 6. Click here for full details and to listen live online, wherever you are. The BBC will also be showing video of the gig on the site afterwards.
The concert will take place in London's BBC Radio Theatre, a venue which was opened in 1932 and visited shortly afterwards by King George V and Queen Mary. "Their Majesties were greatly struck by the hall, which is among London's finest, with an audience capacity of 700," reported the Daily Telegraph at the time. It is not clear whether any royalty will be attending Saturday night's show.

I dunno, guys, rumour has it that Coldplay uses DRUMS and GUITARS and even a BASS here and there... and, believe it or not, Chris Martin occasionally SINGS! That's something that the four members of U2 do! They're copying everything from U2!
