I'm honestly not a Coldplay 'fan' as such, yet I've somehow found myself at three of their gigs with various girlfriends

Like others on the thread, their early stuff suggested a quirky indie type band which I liked but they've since changed into a hugely mainstream 'catch-all' type band. Regardless, they are great musicians, and the live shows are a real event with fireworks, balloons, ticker tape and unique LED wristbands for the crowd which light everything up in time with the music.

Glad the roof was closed as it absolutely lashed down last night. People going tonight will be a lot drier methinks!
