OT: Coldplay Has Balls Too

[D-A-O]

...but they brought their own when they rolled through Calgary:

Great concert! Didn't seem as stiff.

No "well that makes 30,000 hands" and lots of crowd interaction.

That's kinda mesmerizing.

they are exactly the same as at the Sting show at Air Canada Center!!

I really want to see Coldplay one of these days. *sigh*

And yes I know it's kool to hate on them. I don't care. But that said, I can still enjoy a brilliant piece of mocking:

Go see 'em sockii! I'm pretty 'meh' about them now. However they are one of my favourite Glastonbury memories. I was clueless as to who they were at the time (because I specialise in being musically clueless - not because they were unknowns), but lying on my own in the afternoon sun in the middle of a field, listening to their set with my eyes closed, was simply marvellous. Gorgeous melodies riding on brilliant arrangements.

Their balls seem a little lighter than Police balls - which is probably appropriate.

ETA: The vid has helped ease the trauma of Parachutes on constant repeat in the office for a week

I've seen Coldplay 3 times now and they always release yellow balls during Yellow. Way cool. Great band live, by the way. See them if you can. Chris Martin is a great front man.
