North of England living in fear of surprise Coldplay gigs

 

The inhabitants of two of Northern Britain’s greatest party destinations, Liverpool and Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, are living in a state of siege following the announcement that Coldplay are to play two ‘hidden’ Christmas gigs to benefit the homeless. Normally ebullient areas such as St Peter’s Square and Bigg Market have become eerily quiet wastelands as word spread that the band could appear at any minute at any potential venue across the two cities.

 

While authorities insist the likelihood of becoming a victim of a pseudo-spontaneous Coldplay concert are slim, most revellers are taking no chances. ‘It’s like a ghost town,’ revealed a visibly shaken Newcastle bar owner, ‘I can’t remember the last time we had a hen-night in here. Apparently most of them have migrated to faraway places like St. Ives or The Orkneys, just to be on the safe side.’

 

The terror alert level in Tyneside has been raised to ‘bland’, while the local council in Bootle have began stockpiling ear plugs in a desperate attempt to protect the public from the band’s ‘plaintive soft-rock dirge’. Yet fears remain that Coldplay's earnest advocacy for charitable causes will have a negative effect.

 

‘We used to be keen supporters of a number of charities around here,’ explained one local councillor, ‘but nowadays every time I hear the opening chords to ‘Trouble’ on a televised charity appeal I want to go to the nearest Oxfam shop and burn it down – God knows what’d happen if I actually have the misfortune to see them sing that bloody tune live.’

 

However the prospect of indiscriminate Coldplay gigs has at least had a positive effect among the region’s homeless, with thousands of street dwellers breaking the cycle of despair to become productive members of society.

 

‘Ever since I heard what those comfy jumper wearing bastards were planning to do, I conquered my alcoholism and drug addiction, had a shave and began looking for work,’ revealed one former beggar. ‘Okay so I'm picking spring onions for a Romanian gangmaster and living in a cow shed with twenty Slovenian couples, but at least I can look Chris Martin in the eye and say: ‘not in my name pal. Not in my name’.

:lol:

CM: No, there isn't-- and there isn't supposed to be. I've just given up caring about what anyone thinks. If someone thinks I'm a dickhead, fine, listen to someone else's record, then. We're not a totalitarian regime; no one's forced to listen to Coldplay. It's actually quite a compliment if you're something that people can stand against. We welcome that. But, in terms of personality and humor, none of our funny songs make it onto the records. [laughs] We have a lot of stupid ones, but our drummer Will never lets them on.

 

 

Pitchfork: What's a funny one?

CM: Actually [smiles mischievously], we wrote one yesterday about a girl with three boobs, but Will said, "It's not a single."

I'm listening to Jo Whiley and she said something about that Chris was involved with Arcade Fire's Roundhouse concerts. The interview with Arcade Fire will be on soon so I guess they will talk about it in a bit.

 

edit: he was in the DJ booth wearing a skull mask, being the hype man. Nobody realised it was Chris.

Chris Martin disguised himself as a skeleton to help Win Butler DJ at an Arcade Fire show at London's Roundhouse earlier this month.

 

In an interview with BBC Radio Two, Butler revealed that Martin had donned fancy dress to provide some undercover assistance in the DJ booth and described the Coldplay singer as an "amazing hype man".

I'm sure it'll come out at some point! Someone must have taken a few pictures or vids of the set!

The bit about Chris starts at 20.12

J: I know you're friends with him as well

W: He was out on the DJ booth with me the other night wearing a skull mask, that was pretty cool

J: Where was this?

W: At The Roundhouse

J: At The Roundhouse, OK. So he was DJing with you as well?

W: He was hype man

J: Chris Martin as hype man

W: He's an amazing hype man

J: Did anyone realise at all? Or was he just kinda...

W: I don't think so

Awesome. I thanks tash

I know Coldplay have a huge fan base but I didn't realise how many people actually hate them... I suppose everyone has their own opinion but I love them so much.

Looks like Paris is back at work and my brain immediately makes the connection to LP6...

I need to remind myself that he doesn't necessarily work for Coldplay and just worked on MX :) Besides, he wouldn't leak anything.

I think it's unlikely that they will work with him again. New era, new ideas. Kinda sad because I like his MX artwork.

Just realized all 6 CD spots in my truck are Coldplay! :lol:

 

CD 1 is Mylo Xyloto

CD 2 is Live 2012

CD 3 is AROBTTH
