Three times a charm. And that charm has ensured Coldplay will receive a very warm welcome for their third performance in Singapore on Monday, reports The Jakarta Post.
Back in 2001, Coldplay, then an up-and-coming alternative rock group, paired up with Scottish quartet Travis for their first Singapore gig to promote their debut album Parachute. Playing to a modestly sized audience, the young band - Chris Martin on vocals, guitarist Jonny Buckland, bassist Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion - gave a memorable performance.
Five years later, the band's "Twisted Logic" tour swung by our neighbor's shore for the second time. Having by then recorded three albums including A Rush of Blood to the Head (2002) and X&Y (2005), the band's concert featured much more snazzy elements including laser shows, a sleek stage set with fancy visual designs projected on a digital screen stretched across the stage background, and a shower of big yellow balls bouncing above the sea of fans. Quite a number of Indonesian A-list musicians and celebrities were spotted in the audience.
