Coldplay

Coldplay front man Chris Martin has fuelled speculation that the band are set to split. Speaking in Hong Kong, Martin [pictured] admitted that it might be some time before the band release another album. "We won't do another album until we think we've written the best songs in history, and that could take a while, so we could be waiting, 20 years or 50 years. Who knows? All we know is we're playing this evening in Hong Kong." he said. "And tomorrow, we don't know what's happening. So our next record seems like a long way away." Martin and fellow band members Guy Berryman (Bass), Johnny Buckland (Guitar) and Will Champion (drums) are in Asia for their Twisted Logi…

Chris Martin has revealed that he likes to travel to his own gigs by public transport. The Coldplay singer admits that the experience puts him in a "bad mood" and believes that this encourages him to put on a better show for fans. "I try getting to shows at the same time as everyone else," he told The Mirror. "I've been stuck in traffic, I've been on an overcrowded train and I've lined up to buy an overpriced hot dog. Quite often this will put me in a bad mood. So I know just what it's like for everyone else who is paying. "It makes me more determined to get on-stage and really deliver a show that makes it all worthwhile for everyone." http://www.digitalspy.co…

The Coldplayer radio is on! I am listening to it now, kinda cool... :wink: It's nice it actually tells you what it is playing...

Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion. These names probably don't ring a bell. They are members of Coldplay, one of the United Kingdom's biggest bands. You'll probably only recognise the lead singer - Chris Martin - yes, he who is married to Hollywood A-lister Gwyneth Paltrow and has two tots, Apple and Moses. Martin has become so synonymous with the band's name, everyone knows him as the face and voice of Coldplay. But the other members don't seem to mind playing second fiddle. Guitarist Buckland, 27, told The New Paper, tongue firmly in cheek: 'Chris is the face, Will is the leg, Guy is the arm and I'm the chest hair.' The band was in town to perfo…

Such a shame :cry: :o

Coldplay isn’t all about Chris Martin as Michael Cheang finds out after chatting with the band's drummer. When this writer first found out that an exclusive interview with Coldplay in Singapore last week was confirmed, I was ecstatic. I couldn’t wait. Then I found out that I was going to be interviewing not Chris Martin, but the drummer, Will Champion. Ok, well, that’s like getting to interview the Beatles, but getting Ringo Starr. It’s still not too bad. Well, it turns out that talking to Champion the Drummer was almost as good as talking to Martin the Lead Singer. According to the man himself, Coldplay is not a one-man band. “The other three of us are not as well …

which would you give up? Coldplay or the love of your life - a man/woman which you think might be "the one" in your whole life

I met Chris and family (Gwyneth, Apple and Moses) outside of Starbucks (Roppongi Hills, Tokyo) hydrating on mocha frapachinos. Chris looked exhausted with the humidity/heat (94F) and being very fatherly to Apple and Moses. Look forward in seeing Coldplay on the 19th (their last show). While his wifey, Gwyneth was inside getting Frapachino. I started small talk and broke into conversation asking him "what time is it?" (but of course he never wears a watch..), and then told him, "Welcome back to Japan, we missed you.." and "Enjoy your stay" and he politely responded back, with a "Thank You" and I went on with my day as he went on with his day. My guess is that they ei…

We won’t do another album until we think we’ve written the best songs in history, and that could take a while. So we could be waiting, 20 years or 50 years. Who knows? Our next record seems like a long way away. ...........:shocked2: :cry: :(

David Stubbs tunes in to Resonance FM and wonders why more radio stations don't have shows with Finnish avant rock, pensioners selling old wigs or the sound of ice melting Its oldest presenter is a 73-year-old ex-bank robber, its youngest a 15-year-old schoolboy. Its programmes span the outer reaches of music, sound art, polemic and comedy. It has no problem with being deadly earnest and deadly funny. "My favourite Resonance moment was Stewart Lee interviewing 'the Ice Man', who melted a block of ice in the studio," recalls Resonance fan and co-creator of Father Ted, Arthur Matthews. "This took quite a while, as he wasn't allowed to use any naked flames for safety rea…

Chris Martin of Coldplay says that the band doesn't want to impose its political beliefs on others, but the band members feel it's their responsibility to use their celebrity status to bring attention to important issues. The band supports Oxfam's fair trade campaign, which lobbies against trade policies that negatively affect developing countries, such as the influx of goods from developed countries. Martin said at a news conference in Hong Kong before a Coldplay concert on Thursday "We don't want to be preachy, we just say those words (fair trade), and make sure people look it up themselves." He says, "When one or two people take pictures of us, we feel like we…

notably distortion pedal...anyone have a clue? :)

Chris Martin, lead singer of the band Coldplay, reportedly insulted U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney at a recent press conference in Hong Kong. TMZ.com reported that the 29-year-old singer added the verbal jab to Cheney while he was answering questions about the potential disbanding of Coldplay. You know, if you don't like (the music), just listen to something else, said Martin. We'd much rather have a fight with Dick Cheney, you know -- people who really do things that we consider to be bad. While Martin's political comment may have shocked those at the press conference, his answers to questions about the new Coldplay album, and a possible breakup, may have shock…

A behind-the-scenes documentary of Coldplay's world tour has been put on hold because frontman Chris Martin is too busy to edit the footage. The Clocks rocker commissioned his film-making best pal to shoot over 600 hours of film as he followed the notoriously publicity shy group as they toured their X&Y album. But Martin insists he must be involved in putting the TV documentary together, and is currently to busy to go into the editing room for an extended period of time. An insider tells British newspaper the Daily Star, "The camera has been with them all over the globe capturing some amazing gigs and special moments. "It's brilliant stuff but as there's loads o…

MTV's satellite music channel has applied for permission to stage a one-off "unplugged" concert in the famous Cango Caves - starring Coldplay. The Oudtshoorn municipality has been approached by a company called Hunta Entertainment. According to council documents, there is a moratorium on events in the caves after damage caused by a succession of Passion plays and concerts in the past. Council officials at first recommended that the application be turned down "to keep the conservation integrity of the caves intact and ... focus on long-term conservation for generations to come". Another council official said: "The opportunity is on a very grand scale and undoub…

Coldplay front man Chris Martin once famously said: "There would be no Coldplay music without Jonny Buckland." The 28-year-old guitarist — real name Jonathan Mark Buckland — may not have his mug plastered all over the tabloids like Martin, 29, for supporting political causes or marrying a high-profile actress (Gwyneth Paltrow in Martin's case). But he has been consistently ranked as Coldplay's most valuable member. For one thing, Buckland is the man with the plan as far as the rest of the London-based quartet is concerned. The band also comprises drummer Will Champion, 27, and bassist Guy Berryman, 28. "I'm the one who kind of gets excited about all the ideas …
