A fantastic read for all those interested in the technical side of things on the Mylo Xyloto tour.

This was published in the TPi magazine. It includes a TON of photos of various crew members that we never hear about, and the stories that go with them.

 

That was a really cool find:) thanks for sharing!!!!!:)

ahh thanks, gonna read that later :dance:

Wow, that is a big read! Thank you : )

finally got around to reading this. Thank you for sharing!

 

My fav non-geeky tidbits (which i did not gloss over)

 

 

 

- When Nguyen moved onto Mylo Xyloto in her new role, band rehearsals took place at John Henrys in London and the crew did a week of production rehearsals at the Tacoma Dome, Washington. -> Suprising choice of venue, here near Seattle!

 

- Jason: "The (Xylobands) cost around £3 each to make so they are not a simple cheap device"

 

- A Pro Tools rig was set up for virtual soundchecks and system tuning. “We archive everything, which may or may not end up on a DVD."

 

- Even after the second time Paris met Coldplay, the band asked for instruments to be painted and often the only brief was to have fun. “I did a guitar that was maybe too much like regular graffiti and this got sent back with the request that I make it less good. I thought that was great, it was just what I wanted to hear." said Paris.
