Surely not Richard Ashcroft again, even if he is a legend

 

who would you like to see support Coldplay on the tour?

 

I would love to see the fratelli's but cant see it happening :(

 

But hey....they are also going to support the Police here in germany...so why not?

 

I'd love to see the doors....:wacky:

Muse, The Kooks, The Killers, Jet, Placebo... :uhoh: could be that they support on any concert... it would be geat anyways.

 

About their part in Spain, i dunno... i like few bands from here (in case they'd choose a national band from here...).

Dover or Second.

 

but the ones you had said sounds cool too :D

What i would give to see any of these supporting!

 

Embrace i would of put money on if they were still around with Danny and Chris being buddies. (duet singing Gravity anyone?? )

 

Apparently Fran owes Chris a favor when he introduced 'Big Chair' on Radio 1 so chris might call in that favor for Travis, which would also be cool!

 

I think Radiohead would be the most likely with them just releasing 'In Rainbows' without really touring... if they did, i didnt hear about it :(

 

Muse or The Killers I would kill to have them supporting CP! Best British Live band supporting the Best band in the world! its only right it should happen!

 

 

Does Chris and the gang pick who supports them? I would imagine they do...

There is NO way any of those bands would support Coldplay - Radiohead are the least likely. Although not in terms of recent sales, Radiohead are a bigger band in that they've had so many more critically acclaimed albums, most of which have gone to number one in several countries. As Chris Martin said, they see Radiohead as the cool kids in the playground who Coldplay aren't allowed to hang out with (or something along those lines) - indeed, Radiohead would never lower themselves to support anyone, but especially not Coldplay.

 

Muse and the Killers are far too popular now for support slots. Likewise others that have been mentioned - Oasis, Travis and obviously U2 - although I'm not sure all of those were serious suggestions.

 

However, Goldfrapp and Interpol are better shouts - Elbow/Doves also could do it. They usually have an up and coming band there as well, as with Morning Runner, so I reckon that there'll be someone only just getting signed now who ends up on the bill.

 

I can't see Fratelli's as they're not really similar enough to Coldplay and I can't see their music working in the large venues that Coldplay will undoubtedly be playing. Mind you, I can't see their music working anywhere to be honest as they are one of the most pathetic and plagiarist bands currently entering the mainstream culture.

Radiohead is touring right now, and frankly it would be insulting to humanity if radiohead opened for anyone. Muse and Coldplay have both become too big for them to start opening for each other again...I figure the opening acts for coldplay this year will be some young and upcoming fresh meat.
