hmmm i'm agree with you Tracie, Jonny and Chris first met 1996 :thinking: the Laurel Camden Tree is the first official gig, or ??

 

and finally they remember their 14th anniversary !

 

Coldplay @coldplay 32m

Fourteen years ago yesterday, Coldplay played their first ever show. You can watch a great little film about it at cldp.ly/cptimeline A

^Yes, they met in 1996, and I even think it was in...September ? October ? November ? Let's say Autumn :lol: (from what I've deduced from all the interviews, and simply the fact that they were in college so, you know, first months...)

 

And yes this tweet made me laugh, like: ":uhoh: duuhh, yeah, we know that guys, we kept tweeting you all day about that yesterday!" :lol:

So it was actually about a year and a half before Will was permanently in and they played their first gig. Wow! It always seemed less than that. I need a good bio, apparently,lol. :D

 

thanks for clarifying. :)
