¡Viva Coldplay!

Trechos de entrevista e fotos da última turnê do Coldplay, aqui:

"The set that we play now, the order of the songs, and just the way that we're playing the songs, it's just sort of drummed into us now," says Berryman. "It's like a really smooth operation. Which is the point you always want to get to where you can get up there and just enjoy playing without thinking about it or worrying about it. For me, I know we've got it right when it seems just so short."

"The main thing I've been listening to lately is ‘Rhapsody in Blue' by Gershwin," says Martin. "I listen to it most days because I just can't work out how someone is capable of writing that."

"There's sort of a whole heap of things that we do before the show," says Buckland. "Obviously we get changed, we do a bit of singing, play the guitar and just sort of relax for a bit before. But we don't deflower any virgins or anything like that."

"We wanted to embrace the theater of music on this tour, rather than just be an anonymous band," says drummer Will Champion (strumming a guitar, above.) "When we first start thinking about outfits and everything it was like, 'are we gonna look ridiculous?' So, gradually, when the ideas started to take shape, you know, the look became a little more studied and a little more subtle."

"I still quite enjoy playing 'Yellow,' " says guitarist Jonny Buckland. "We don't actually play that much off Parachutes, we play quite a lot of new songs. So and I would say there is now, there is nothing in our set list that I don't like playing. It's only a few songs off each record because there's four of them now — you can't play forever, we're not going to be Springsteen and play for three hours."

"Next year we're going to mix it up," says bassist Guy Berryman (left). "Two months recording, two months touring, sort of back to back. Mix it up a bit like that. And even when we're away, we can still be working on the new record, or people can still be doing the mundane jobs on it, and we've even talked about going into studios on the road as well."

It's hard to gauge the success of Coldplay's current tour, Chris Martin says: "I don't have a sense of it. I only have a sense of the room being full and people singing. And that's all I can ask for."

Segundo o site World Wide Albums, até o dia 26 de dezembro, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends apartir de junho, foram mais de 6,3 milhões de cópias adquiridas ao redor do mundo.
