Riding high on the phenomenal success of A Rush of Blood to the Head, Coldplay is in peak form on Coldplay Live 2003. This CD/DVD two-pack was filmed (on Super-16mm film) and recorded in Sydney's Horden Pavilion on July 21 and 22, 2003, during an exhaustive year-long world tour, and the medium-sized arena provides a fitting stage for the London-based rock quartet, not so grand as to overwhelm the music, but large enough to indicate their large and loyal following, which includes enthusiastic fans of either gender. Especially when played in DTS 5.1 surround, this 90-minute concert is richer, thicker, and (of course) louder than Coldplay's studio recordings, lending a wall-of-sound expansiveness to the band's signature sound, which draws from such diverse influences as Genesis, Pink Floyd, The Verve, U2, and their own unique sonic landscape. "Politik" gets the gig off to a rousing start, and other impressive! highlights include "Daylight," "Yellow," the as-yet-unreleased new song "Moses," and the popular hits "In My Place," "Clocks," and "The Scientist." And while the concert visuals are slick and professional (perhaps placing a bit too much emphasis on singer/frontman Chris Martin), this DVD and CD--the latter containing a truncated 70-minute version of the same performance--are best appreciated for their pristine audio quality. Culled from 400 hours of home video, the 40-minute "concert diary" represents a wasted opportunity, enjoyable for hardcore fans but offering no insight into the band or its individual members. Much better, then, to play the concert at healthy high volume, and appreciate Coldplay in the prime of their young career. --Jeff Shannon

New songs make this worthwhile October 14, 2009
Joseph E. Janick (Phoenix, AZ United States)
For me the most enjoyable parts of this CD/DVD comp were on the DVD (had gotten a preview of the songs on LaunchCast so i knew what to expect sonically from the band). The extras showed some cool things like Chris Martin singing in the shower with his clothes on :D, the band kicking it in a little harder on "Trouble" (very unexpected, wished they did it more often), the psycho fan in LA who tried to jump the fence :? and the multiple angles of all the band members. From the CD side of things, there wasn't that much difference between the studio & live versions aside from crowd participation, so the newer songs, "Moses", "One I Love", & "See You Soon" are most welcome. All in all, a good addition to the catalog.
 Must-have for Coldplay fans September 9, 2009
Angela Berry
In my opinion, Coldplay music is so much better live. The studio versions seem so one-dimensional and lack the depth and fullness of the live versions. And they haven't made many of the live performances available on DVD so this is really a gem. Although the live DVD performance isn't as dynamic as the newer (2006 Canadian concert or 2009 Viva la Vida) concerts, it is always great to be able to see them play their guitars and piano, belt out the lyrics and interact with the crowd. Chris Martin seems to have really come into his own, becoming more comfortable commanding the stage and the audience as the years went by. For the hardcore fan, the DVD was shot with multiple angles which is included on the DVD as a feature so that you can see Jonny on lead, Guy on bass, Will on drums and Chris all at the same time.
I feel I got far more than my money's worth at $18 for this set.
Live Coldplay February 2, 2009
Mom and Engineer (Illinois)
I love this CD and DVD set. The CD is sounds great. It is an awesome cd to take a long drive with. The DVD is nice for background noise at home. I highly recommend this purchase for anyone who enjoys Coldplay. The live noises are a great touch to their songs.
 Awful sound quality January 19, 2009

For the sake of avoiding getting this review tagged as unhelpful, my comments are geared specifically towards "audiophile"-types who are very concerned with the quality of sound reproduction. If that isn't your thing, feel free to ignore my comments.
I really enjoy Coldplay, but the sound quality here is unforgivable. I couldn't bring myself to listen to much of it on my high-end system. For Coldplay fans who are also audio freaks, this album is not for you.
