Coldplay / Ron Sexsmith

Hbbyst Sep 08, 2023

Amazing show! Before they were arena size and after their small venue shows for "Parachutes." Killer shows with Ron Sexsmith, whom we hadn't heard of until the show and wowed us with "Heart's Desire" and "Gold in Them Hills."

Prior to the show my friend and I tried to find Coldplay to interview them for our high school newspaper. By happenstance, we ran into Chris Martin as he was leaving a booth in the back! He was cordial and allowed us to ask him a couple of questions with two other members of the band. He mainly promoted Make Trade Fair, was anti-Bush, and was very kind and nice. After our dumb teenager questions he and the band signed our questions with our answers and went backstage. So friggin' awesome.

Thanks for the memories!
