Wow, only 11 shows in the US. I'm guessing there will be another US leg at some point?

If memory serves me correctly I think for Head Full of Dreams they toured for over a yr and did a couple separate US runs so maybe that's the plan here as well.

    yeah I just saw on their Instagram that "more dates to follow." That MetLife show is only like 90 minutes from my MIL and it's a Saturday, so that's a possibility.

    I've got tickets to see them next Friday at the grand opening of Climate Pledge Arena here in Seattle. Very excited!

    Pretty cool what they're doing to attempt to offset some of the tour's carbon footprint.

    I saw something about it on their website but didn't dig deep. What's it about?

    From what I have heard Coloratura is the only noteworthy song. That song is fantastic. Too bad the rest is so lackluster.

    Humankind isn't bad at all.

    Looks like they're doing some promo tours right now and just played with Ed Sheehan in London.

    https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/coldp...d-b8d25a6.html

    I think Army of One is their most underrated song IMHO.

    Every new album I hold out hope they’re gonna try to be themselves this time and not the next Imagine Dragons. Nope. This band had a great run from Parachutes to Vida (Mylo Xyloto has some good tracks though) then completely lost the plot.

    Re: Coldplay. Your thoughts?

    I listened to the new album on Friday....pretty forgettable from beginning to end. We went to NY to visit the 'rents and go apple picking. On the way we listened to some of Parachutes, aRoBTtH, and X&Y...that stuff is so much better. I felt like X&Y was a little drop in quality, but Viva was also an excellent album (return to form as it were) barring the title track that I never cared for. Things have substantially decreased in quality since then...which is more common than not.

    It sounds like instead of just creating their own thing, they're being overly influenced by what's happening in pop music at large. Rather than setting trends, they're following them. This is also not uncommon, but what they're producing no longer interests me. I'll still listen to the next album and hope for the best, just like with every other artist I like.

    Maybe I just haven't listened to these guys enough, but they've really never done anything for me. I've found their music pretty bland and boring. I had no idea how big of a fan base they even had until that DMB Concert for Cville. I couldn't understand why Chris Martin was such a big deal and why he was even a special guest lol. To me, Dave, Justin Timberlake, Chris Stapleton, and Ariana Grande are all far bigger acts than Coldplay/Chris Martin but I guess I was somewhat wrong.

    He's been saying something similar off and on for the past 10 yrs and idk why. I just recently rewatched that Coldplay doc that's on Amazon and Will Champion even makes a mockery of it saying that Chris has been saying for the past 3 albums that this is gonna be the last one (they've released 2 albums since that doc was made btw lol). There's multiple times in the doc where Christ himself says he doesn't know what he'd do and how lost he'd be if he didn't have his bandmates and their brotherhood. It's just really bizarre behavior.

    Finally listened to the new album this week. I think it works better as a complete album vs the last one, but it's an average album, nothing super special. I appreciate that it at least has a theme, the last album felt like a bunch of shit grouped together.

    Yeah I have tickets for an LA show and got an email from ticketmaster saying it's postponed...it sucks b/c it seems the LA shows are the only ones that dont have a rescheduled date so it's totally up in the air. I haven't looked at their schedule to see if it's even doable in this USA run, or if theyll have to come back inbetween tour legs.
