    Elbow Lose gear over Atlantic ocean ahead of Coldplay support slots

    elbow4.jpgElbow wowed a packed house at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles (July 22), despite the fact that they lost all of their gear over the Atlantic ocean. The Mancunian quintet, who embarked on a US tour supporting Coldplay tonight in East Troy, had a mishap on the way over to California from England. "It's lovely to be here, but we're a bit jetlagged because none of our gear arrived," frontman Guy Garvey told the audience. "It's somewhere over the Atlantic."

     

    Elbow announced that they will support Coldplay on several US tour dates this summer, starting at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, WI tonight. The Mercury Prize-winning band will also play a handful of headlining shows during the North American jaunt.

     

    They kicked things off with their own gig in Los Angeles on July 22 before teaming up with Coldplay in Wisconsin. They'll hit cities including Toronto, Montreal, Charlotte and Atlanta, before concluding the tour in Tampa, Florida on August 9. The band are supporting their most recent album, 'Seldom Seen Kid'.

    Elbow recently announced a giant Manchester homecoming show at the MEN Arena on September 18, the same night that Coldplay play Wembley. Then, according to frontman Guy Garvey, Elbow will "disappear" from the live scene until they finish their next album.
