Always in My Head Chris Martin Acoustic Piano
I learned this acoustic version of AIMH a long time ago. The right hand is pretty simple throughout most of it because he just does a constant G minor chord. He does G Bb and D, but runs down the D to a C and Bb while sometimes landing on an E instead of the D. It's hard to explain. I'll try to make a video on it soon. If you guys check out my Instagram, I have a short video of it that I uploaded a few weeks ago. It's rece_w Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Coldplay Listening Party In Person Near Sacramento, CA
I'm not sure if we're allowed to post this, but would it be possible to setup a listening party in person? I've always wanted to meet up with fellow Coldplayers near me, so I really wanted to do this! If I'm not allowed to, just go ahead and remove this post. But if it's alright, would anyone be up for this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn't quote the whole thing because it was a long message, but thank you so much for your kind words. These four guys have done more for me than anyone could ever think of, and I can't thank them enough. My life was completed that night. I have nothing more to ask for in my life other than asking people to keep spreading love. I can't believe it. They changed me forever. I cried every day following it in tears of joy and sadness. I love them so much. I love every fan. I love everyone. We all make a difference for each other whether we know it or not. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Since I wasn't able to practice beforehand, I went based off of the PA at the start (hence why I messed up so much because I couldn't actually focus on my hands) but then in the first verse, I just focused on my hands and Chris's singing instead Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I actually gave him a note! It has a lot of personal stuff in it, but the main point is basically thanking him and the band for all that they've done! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have no clue. Chris and I were so confused because we didn't hit any other keys so I'm thinking it was something from the main stage Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's so awesome that you flew from Houston!! I've been playing piano for about a year and a half. I haven't had anyone teach me but I've always wanted lessons. They're just too expensive for us so I've had to try and teach myself Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I still can't believe this all happened. I've been shaking since it happened because I'm still so extremely happy. Chris said a lot to me while he wasn't singing! He would say things like "f***ing beautiful" or "it's so badass that you're doing this" among other really kind and heartfelt comments. It was the best thing in the world. I love Chris so much I don't even know where to begin! This night was the best night of my life! As Julie (my friend who I took with me) and I were walking into the field after the doors opened, we were approached by Ben, the lead designer of the tour (I can't remember his official title, my apologies) He came up to us and asked about our posters and where we were from and if we've been before, etc... then he asked us if we've heard about the fan introduction videos, and I told him that I thought that they were absolutely amazing and would be awesome to be in one! Then he asked us "Well, do you guys want to do the video?" So we both just looked at each other in shock and instantly said "yes!" He then took us backstage into a production room where we rehearsed the intro video and as we finished, we walked back out to the floor. From that point, we walked to go get some merchandise, because, of course why not? As Alina Baraz and Tove Lo were performing, we got super excited as the anticipation just kept building up and up (pun intended) then our intro video came on and everyone around us was freaking out as we were on the screen! Coldplay came out to the stage and it was just pure magic the whole time. Julie and I headed over to the C-Stage a few songs before the band came over and to the left of us was a few teenagers who were freaking out as they saw us and were like "oh my gosh it's them guys, it's the people from the intro!" And then... just pure... I don't even know how to describe it! The band came up the C-Stage and I held my signs up high (Guy Berryman came up first and smiled at Julie's and my signs!) and then Chris walked up and read my sign and waved but mouthed "let me think about it" and so I was like "oh that's totally fine!" I would have been okay if I didn't go on stage, but... fate had it I would in a moment! It was funny too because I felt so bad because a guy behind me yelled at me to put down my signs. (He comes into play later) So I put them down and the band start playing "In My Place" and end it with a tribute of "Free Falling" then Chris Martin goes to Will Champion (the drummer) and starts having a chat with him. They're nodding to each other and everything and then Chris announces that Will will be singing the next song! (Which was "Don't Panic") and Will almost never takes lead vocals! Then after the song changed... the sheer excitement kicked in so hard. Chris announced to the crowd "we've got this young man here with a beautifully written sign who would like to play a song for us" and the rest is all explained in the videos. He said a lot more before he actually introduced me but it was so crazy. The dude who yelled at me about the signs ended up apologizing. Sweet guy. In the end, none of this was planned. It was all sheer luck and just the best thing ever. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The keyboard that he uses for the B-Stage is specially made, I believe. The one on the C-Stage is made more for Will I think Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ive actually had this in the planning for over a year now! Maybe even since Ghost Stories came out honestly... it was always such a beautiful song, but I wanted to play it for my grandpa. We talked through it and made it out for the victims of Vegas as well because it was just so important to send the love to everyone! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The delay was killer haha! As I would play the third or fourth eighth note, the first one would play. So there was a delay of about two seconds or so! It was a bit crazy. That's why I mess up at the beginning (mostly with the left hand. It was just trailing behind lol) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you so much! I was just about to ask Chris to restart but I knew I only had one chance! He kept me going by always complimenting me throughout the whole performance, even when he wasn't singing (he'd whisper to me) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hello there everyone! In case you don't know, I was extremely lucky to have introduced the band and performed on stage with Coldplay at Levi's Stadium on Oct. 4th, 2017! It was the most magical thing in the world. I know I messed up soooo much at the beginning due to the delay being extremely tough to get used to. But I got the hang of it around the first verse! So I figured, if you guys want to ask me anything, go ahead! I'd love to chat with everyone! :) if you need a link to the video, here is one that my good friends Jimmy Dushku and Ian (founder of Atlas Project) took!

Kaleidoscope EP
*cough* cash grabs. Kidding. There's a whole array of reasons why there's reissues. Some of them include: anniversary, special occasion (for example, the B&N edition of Parachutes on vinyl), many errors in the initial release (for example, the KEP is probably going to be reissues due to how many errors it has), country specific releases, etc... there's seriously 1,000,000 different reasons why they reissue things haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
