Coldplay: Last News

according to their website.Coldplay’s live show setup includes kinetic dance floors and stationary bikes that can channel energy directly from the fans in the crowd into batteries that power different elements of the show.What’s more, each LED bracelet, known as Xylobands, worn by each concertgoer is controlled by a radio transmitter.Martin, who previously vowed that Coldplay would not tour again until they found a sustainable and environmentally safe way to take the stage, previously said the band has mapped out a 12-point plan to cut down its carbon footprint. The show featured a long of breathtaking moments, including several stunning firework displays and surprise guests at the end.British singer Laura Mvula and indie band London Grammar opened for Coldplay’s London gigs.“I’ve been following Coldplay around for many years now,” Joy Eisenhower, who hails from Pittsburgh, Penn., told The Post. “It’s the fifth time I’ve seen them live now and can honestly say it’s the best show I’ve ever seen.”“It left me completely speechless,” she added.Elsewhere in the show, frontman Chris Martin abruptly brought his show to a halt to ask fans to stop filming on their cell phones and be present instead.Interrupting his song during Saturday’s show, the 45-year-old said he wanted “just one song” without phones or cameras to let “the power of the people” shine through.“Wait, hold on, one second.

Greg James is one lucky bugger after managing to make it on-stage at Wembley before Coldplay themselves. The Paradise hitmakers – featuring Chris Martin, Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland and Will Champion – have been entertaining thousands of fans at London’s Wembley Stadium on a six-night run as part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour. It’s been a cracking residency so far with the likes of Craig David, Natalie Imbruglia and even Alan Partridge joining the rock band as surprise guests during the shows. They may have saved the best until last with BBC Radio 1 presenter Greg appearing during Coldplay’s final night at Wembley on Sunday. Concert-goers shared photos on social media of Greg, 36, doing the honours of introducing Coldplay to the stage and, needless to say, his fans were loving his surprise cameo. ‘@gregjames you’ve won in this life,’ one fan cheered on Twitter. The incredible @gregjames of @BBCR1 introducing Coldplay for the final night of #ColdplayWembley ð¤ | via @JohnnySeifert pic.twitter.com/lLbjX9GeWNAnother joined in: ‘I love Greg what a great start.’ ‘@gregjames give Chris a hug for me,’ one fan quipped. It comes after actor and comedian Steve Coogan surprised the mass audience when he joined the band in character as Alan Partridge to sing Kate Bush and Abba hits on Saturday night. The 56-year-old commanded the stage beside frontman Chris to belt out Bush’s iconic hit Running Up That Hill, as well as Abba’s Knowing Me, Knowing You. Partridge hilariously wore a red satin jacket with the words ‘Snow Patrol’ on the back.He told the crowd: ‘Running up hills, up roads – it’s all cardiovascular.

Coldplay performed their nightly duology of covers with the unique trio of Steve Coogan (in character as Alan Partridge), Jacob Collier and Nicole Lawrence.As all shows on the run have been thus far, Coldplay’s show on Saturday (August 20) was split into seven segments, which saw the band perform across three different stages. They welcomed out the impromptu supergroup for the second-to-last of those segments, taking to the “C-Stage” in the middle of the dancefloor. Clad in a gaudy red tracksuit, Partridge took the reins from Chris Martin on lead vocals, while the Coldplay frontman played acoustic guitar and sung backup. Lawrence added depth to Martin’s strumming with her performance on a pedal steel guitar, while Collier fleshed out the soundscape on piano. For their two-song micro-set, the group covered ABBA’s 1976 hit ‘Knowing Me, Knowing You’ and Kate Bush’s newly-made-cool-again ‘Running Up That Hill’.

Coldplay fans have been left in hysterics during their live concert at Wembley tonight as none other than Alan Partridge turned up.And that’s not all. The icing on the cake was the Steve Coogan actor rocking up to duet Kate Bush’s Running Up That Hill as well as a smash hit from ABBA.Only a few nights ago, Coldplay surprised fans at their sold-out Music of the Spheres tour with Craig David, and now, Partridge has made his debut.The comedy character is known for being a parody of British TV personalities, as Coogan plays a failed presenter trying to save his career.Tonight, he swapped news broadcasting for performing on stage to a roaring crowd, and fans couldn’t get over the iconic moment.In true Alan Partridge style, he took centre stage with Chris Martin backing him up.Haha not what I expected… running up that hill.

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin took some time off to link up with pianist Victoria Canal – who happens to have been born without her right forearm – joining her for a soulful duet of her original track ‘Swan Song’.Billboard reports that Martin and Canal met on Wednesday (August 17), the same day Coldplay performed their fourth gig in the iconic London stadium. It was a private meeting, with Canal performing the song on a vintage grand piano while Martin leant over the headboard and joined her in singing the track’s tender chorus: “Who knows how long we’ve got? / As long as I’m breathing, I / Know it’s not too late to love.”After they completed the vocal refrain, Martin nonchalantly quipped that ‘Swan Song’ is “one of the best songs ever written”, to which Canal replied in shock: “WHAT?” Martin then joked about how Canal was “nervous that the piano was louder than you”, with the latter noting that she “always sing[s] too quiet”.Posting footage of the moment to her Twitter page, Canal wrote: “I literally dissolved and went to songwriter heaven when this happened.

Coldplay have let it be known they’re interested in flying ‘in a plane powered by milk’, as you do.The eco-conscious band are keen to use renewable energy whenever they’re on the road, and Chris Martin, the band’s lead singer, wants to push the boundaries even further in the coming years.He shared: ‘We’re about halfway where we want to go. A place we are struggling is transport.‘That’s where we need help and we need technology to develop so that we can fly in a plane powered by milk or something like that.

Coldplay took a moment during their latest concert to pay tribute to Darius Campbell Danesh following his death aged 41, with Chris Martin honouring their ‘old friend’.This week, it was confirmed that Campbell Danesh, who finished third on Pop Idol in 2002, had died after being found ‘unresponsive’ at his apartment in Minnesota, US, on August 11.A statement released from the Colourblind musician’s family read: ‘We ask that you kindly respect our wishes for privacy at this time whilst we come to terms with the tragic loss of our son and brother.’Tributes have come pouring in for the late artist, from individuals including media mogul and former Pop Idol judge Simon Cowell, presenters Ant and Dec and Campbell Danesh’s ex-wife, actress Nathasha Henstridge.On Wednesday evening, Coldplay performed the latest leg of their Music of the Spheres world tour at Wembley Stadium, with the tour set to be taking place all the way through to November, with rescheduled dates also added for 2023.Before ending last night’s concert, Chris said: ‘We are going to send love from Wembley out to the world.

Coldplay were joined by Natalie Imbruglia during the third of their six shows at London’s Wembley Stadium, where they paid tribute to Olivia Newton-John and performed Imbruglia’s hit ‘Torn’ together.Honouring the late Newton-John, who died last week at the age of 73, Coldplay and Imbruglia covered Grease number ‘Summer Nights’. Newton-John sang the song in the musical’s 1978 film adaptation, which she starred in as Sandy, alongside John Travolta.For their rendition, Imbruglia handled the role of Sandy while Coldplay’s Chris Martin sang the part of Travolta’s character, Danny, duetting on its shared chorus along with Jacob Collier.Before ‘Summer Nights’, Coldplay and Imbruglia also performed ‘Torn’, which Imbruglia popularised when she released her version of the Ednaswap song as her debut single in 1997.
