_______Heart Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Hi! I have a question. I've heard somewhere that Tim Rice-Oxley from Keane knew Chris and that they were friends. (And that he was asked to join coldplay at some point. That band would have been AWESOME.) On the biography on the site, it says that they got the idea for the name Coldplay from a guy named Tim. So, uh, could it be him? I know they're millions of Tim's in the world. And sorry if this has been answered before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berrywoman Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Tim and Chris are indeed friends.. I am not sure if they got the name from Tim Oxley.. but it was a friend of theirs who had the name Coldplay first.. and got it from a book of childrens poems. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sofy Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Sorry, i asked debs some time ago, and she said that Tim Rice-Oxley was asked to play in coldplay, but he didn't accept. There is another guy called Tim too who was going to name his band Coldplay (and, yes, he took it from a book of poems for children). ~The End~ :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
