So tonight (16th June) Coldplay are playing a free gig at the Brixton Academy, London.
Obviously Radio 1, in their typically arsey fashion, are ‘all over that shit, maaan’ having had enough of Dave Grohl and his Pals. Now I’m usually a defender of Zane Lowe, but the trail for these ‘amazing gigs by amazing bands’ (pfft) is cringeworthy. No, no one cares about Jo Whiley. No, Coldplay and the Foo Fighters are not the best bands in the universe. No, I don’t want to listen it it.
Anyway, despite the fact that I abhor the fact that Radio 1 are all over Coldplay, their new album is rather good. Use your common sense and find it, or even better buy it!
