Coldplay Front man Chris Martin stepped down the from stage and behind the bar in one of Auckland's hippest bars to make cocktails. After Thursday night's concert for 12,000, Martin went out on the town with kiwi support singer Hollie Smith.
The pair have struck up a strong friendship, and her boyfriend TV and radio presented Clarke Gayford says they plan to keep in touch. The band signed a thank-you card for Smith and gave her an expensive champagne before the group headed out to Mea Culpa on Ponsonby Rd after Thursday night's gig. Gayford says Martin jumped at the chance to mix some cocktails with Smith behind the bar. "You don't often find people that are genuine," Gayford, 32, said. "He's like any other decent Kiwi guy. He was down-toearth ... really lovely."
