Coldplay… One has to ask, is Coldplay selling out because it’s such fantastic
music or because people need a rallying point? To feel SOME connection to the
mainstream?

But Coldplay is irrelevant. Let’s just say there will be a COUPLE of new
bands that will break through and sell tickets for a year or two (if you think
Coldplay’s gonna be doing 20,000 a night three years from now, you’re dreaming,
or else they’re going to make a quantum leap in recorded material, since “X&Y”
is so bland, so repetitive, so WEAK as to be laughable to anybody truly
listening).

Are you eating your words now…?
