Came across this today doing my morning Google of Coldplay News. That High School sounds like it has a great Musical Director. Lucky kids. http://www.dailybulletin.com/20150130/upland-high-school-rocks-shakespeare-with-modern-musical [h=1]Upland High School rocks Shakespeare with modern musical[/h] Upland High School students Cassandra Costa and Fernando Rivera will star in the production “Romeo and Juliet: A Star-Crossed Musical.” courtesy photo UPLAND >> Upland High School Theatre Department is proving again that you can take a classic piece of literature and make it modern and relevant. Their upcoming production, “Romeo and Juliet: A Star-Crossed Musical,” features Shakespeare’s timeless language and story surrounded by contemporary rock/pop music and modern day attire. The production is inspired by Coldplay’s Grammy nominated album, “Ghost Stories.” The production is Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 7 p.m. while the Sunday performance is at 2:30 p.m. in the Highlander Auditorium located on the campus of Upland High School, 565 West 11th Street. When Michele Richardson, theatre teacher and director, bought the album in early May, she immediately felt the presence of a tragic love story. Richardson said she knew she wanted to do something imaginative with this piece of art but she wasn’t quite sure what. In late September, a student asked why the school had never performed “Romeo and Juliet.” Richardson said a light bulb instantaneously went on in her head and the production was born. She spent three months organizing the music and was inspired for the title of the play by her friend, Jason Williams, who is a writer for the television show, “Brain Games.” “I really wanted to expose the students and the audience to some great hidden gems from the eighties and nineties such as World Party and Days of the New and as well as current Indie darlings (acts), the Head and the Heart and Nightmare and the Cat,” she said. This is Richardson’s second time working with “Romeo and Juliet” but her approach this time is quite different from the first. The play is almost two completely different genres in one. The first half of the piece is quite happy, fun, and romantic, but after the wedding, the action takes a dark turn with violence and death. It is almost as if Shakespeare set out to write a comedy or romance and then suddenly changed his mind. Through this process, students have explored the in-depth nature of the script as well as the power of music to tell a story and to invoke an emotion.

[h=1]Kodaline Keep Getting Compared to Coldplay, and They're Fine With It[/h] Kodaline have been hovering around the U.K. rock scene for several years. They used to exist as 21 Demands, but changed their name in 2011, and added bass player Jason Boland to round out the group. ow, they're working on a second record, Coming Up for Air, which is due Feb. 9. There are other important matters, too. Namely, the fact that they keep getting compared to Coldplay. The Irish boys recently sat down with Digital Spy to address the issue. People seem to like comparing you to Coldplay. Do you find that frustrating? Mark Prendergast: "We haven't got any on the new songs." Steve Garrigan: "The thing is right, I'd say us and 500,000 other bands get compared to Coldplay because Coldplay are so massive. We're Coldplay fans, so it's cool." Boland: "That's the music that was on the radio when we were growing up, that's the band we grew up on. U2, Coldplay and Snow Patrol. It's hard not to take in what's around you." Garrigan: "I think the goal for any band is to just get to the stage where they just sound themselves ... I don't know how long that takes. To us we're just who we are, we don't necessarily sound like anybody else. We don't try to rip anybody else off, we just put our own personalities into our music and the end product is our music." The takeaway: Kodaline like Coldplay, but they don't want to be lumped into the same sonic category. "We've never really found a sound as a band," Garrigan said. "We write per song — we never really think of an overall sound. If there's a riff that's really funky, it's going to end up being a funk song. That's the way we look at it, we don't think about sounds." There's still hope for a specific identity, though. "Maybe, touch wood, the next album we might find a sound — or maybe we already have."

this is cute, check out 1:39 for a little Coldplay Woooahhhhh From The Take Away "To the surprise of no one, we got the QQ that proved the “Woah-oh-oh!” refrain is shamefully overemployed in pop music these days. A YouTube user who goes by Cutting Room created a 5-minute video of recent songs that “woah” and “oh,” from Britney, to Coldplay, to Kesha, to Fall Out Buy, to fun. There’s a fair amount of variety, but it’s still a little embarrassing. Beyoncé’s is in there, too, but she can do whatever she wants because she's Beyoncé.

"Yes, I'll take a side of steamed broccoli and oh wait on second thought......" And the Dr. is quoted saying it's not a good idea, omg

hahahaha omg!!!!Thanks Sparky, I think i lost my mind when I read this article, *shouldabeeninthewarningsignthread* :laugh3::dozey::bomb::bomb::smash:

exactly, where do ppl come up with this stuff? bizarre

wtf? http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/style/555002/Gwyneth-Paltrow-Goop-vagina-steam-cleanse [h=1]For the love of Goop! Gwyneth Paltrow waxes lyrical about vagina steam cleanse[/h] [h=3]LAST week we were introduced to the concept of a 'vagina facial' on ITV daytime show This Morning, and now Gwyneth Paltrow has waded in on the craze with LA spa treatment V-Steam[/h] Gwyneth Paltrow's lifestyle blog Goop used to be a source of inspiration for quinoa recipes and eccentric fitness workouts. But now the 42-year-old actress is turning her focus away from health crazes to bizarre beauty treatments. Gwyneth has told her female blog followers to head to a vagina spa in Santa Monica, where they can have their vaginas steamed. Speaking about the Korean spa, Chris Martin's ex-wife wrote: "Tikkun is the next level when it comes to Korean spas, combining high-tech far infrared heat with traditional Korean sauna therapies. "So, if you want to lay down in a Himalayan salt brick tiled sauna, or sit in a Hwangto clay room, you get the added benefit of far infrared heat. "And, in addition to the sauna rooms, there’s a long menu of massages and kick-a** body scrubs to complement the sauna time." Gwynnie went into more specific detail adding: "We’re burying the lede though, because the real golden ticket here is the Mugworth V-Steam: You sit on what is essentially a mini-throne, and a combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al." Praising the unconventional treatment, the blonde actress said: "It is an energetic release—not just a steam douche—that balances female hormone levels. "If you’re in LA, you have to do it." Tikkun Holistic Spa is located in Santa Monica, not far from the Pacific Palisades home the Oscar winner now resides in. This isn't the first time the mother-of-two has talked about her private parts. In 2013 she said she 'rocked a '70s vibe' with her pubic hair. However, not everyone is happy with Gwyneth's beauty recommendations. Dr. Jen Gunter, a board certified OB/GYN and expert in vulvovaginal disorders, wrote about the services at Tikkun on her website. "Steam is probably not good for your vagina. Herbal steam is no better and quite possibly worse," she said. "Mugwort or wormwood or whatever when steamed, either vaginally or on the vulva, can't possibly balance any reproductive hormones, regulate your menstrual cycle, treat depression, or cure infertility." Last week Lisa Palmer appeared on ITV show This Morning and told the nation about her homemade vaginal facial recipe.

And then Mr. Smith replied on twitter with class <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Can't believe what I've just read.</p>— SAM SMITH (@samsmithworld) <a href="https://twitter.com/samsmithworld/status/559170588803997696">January 25, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Ignore.</p>— SAM SMITH (@samsmithworld) <a href="https://twitter.com/samsmithworld/status/559172846702706689">January 25, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

so I officially dislike Howard Stern in a very venomous way now. How the hell can you put down Sam Smith so cruelly? He called him fat and ugly and said that he liked him!!!! So he was "likeing" him down and cutting him up at the same time? Talk about passive/aggressive. This man is mental. Then he said Oh, he's Gay? like who fucking cares? Idiot of a man. Sorry rant over. On a positive note, Guy said he would love to colab with him during the BBC awards interview and he is one of Chris's fav artists <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Chris Martin's favourite artists at the moment : Hozier, Disclosure, Sam Smith and Azealia Banks <a href="http://t.co/mpj3G3kJhF">http://t.co/mpj3G3kJhF</a></p>— Coldplaying (@coldplaying) <a href="https://twitter.com/coldplaying/status/551524687050584064">January 3, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>"Dream Colab?"

I heard Ed won Top Gear but does not actually drive nor have a license? is that correct?

Squeeeeeeeeeee!!! Hot damn!

Here is an interesting piece on this subject from the BBC that mentions Coldplay http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-30981814 go to link to see the full interview [h=1]Disability access: How user-friendly are UK's music venues?[/h] 26 January 2015 Last updated at 11:18 GMT Going to see a favourite band is something many people look forward to, but for those in wheelchairs, access can be tricky. BBC Breakfast contacted 10 of the largest music arenas in the UK to get a snapshot of how accessible the main venues are. Seven responded and said that out of 91,000 seats between them, 554 were available for wheelchair users. That is fewer than 1%. Nikki Fox reports.
