Chris Martin dismisses rumors of rivalry with U2
Mar 12, 2009 Coldplay, Music, U2

Even though the front man from Coldplay has been branded a “wanker” by Bono, Chris Martin insists that there is no rivalry between the two bands: “We never started any rivalry, because we are fully aware that we are a number six band. We are not even number two. We are always very thrilled when someone even bothers to compare us, but we are 23 years behind them and they are in a way different league.” That’s it, go ahead! Kiss the ass of the one who kicked you in the gut! I wouldn’t have imagined Chris Martin to be so low on self-respect. Sure, you’d expect Bono to act all high and mighty, given his career a certain amount of smug becomes greatly predictable. Too bad Chris Martin had this reply. Still, it would be fun to see Oasis and U2 getting into a conflict like this. Just imagine the fireworks that would result! When that much amount of smug gets into close contact… anything can happen.

Jay-Z and Coldplay in Concert
Dec 4, 2008 Coldplay, Concert Gig, Jay-Z
Jay-Z and Coldplay are coming together to bring us a concert. However, if you want to see that pairing, you’re going to have to wait until the fall of 2009. According to new reports, Jay-Z will be rocking out with Coldplay as their special guest on three new UK stadium shows. The shows will take place some time in September. Ticket prices are said to start at 40 pounds or $60. If you remember, Jay-Z has been having trouble with getting gigs in the UK because of his asking price. I guess this collaboration can be treated as a two for one deal.
