Hey guys,

does anyone know what instrament is being played right as the song start before the actual music starts. it almost sounds like a knackering like a weird drumstick sound. im trying to recreate it and i no idea what it is. its some type of drum. youd know if you saw them live. it also repeats later in the song lightly

It's just Will on hi-hat I believe

Yeah, could be electric drums on the album, but he plays it the same live.

huh? 15 secs ? thats still the tik-tok from the border of the snare

 

question: do coldplay still play square one on Viva La Vida tour??? when? (beginning, mid, end....)
