Coldplay Releases Viva La Vida North American Tour Dates

As we all know, when a new album’s on the horizon so too is a new tour. So with Coldplay’s upcoming release of Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends scheduled for June 17, 2008, the British band has now scheduled a follow-up North American tour to start a week later. The tour seems extremely expansive and will be hitting major cities all across the U.S. and Canada. The coolest part of the tour may be the fact that its opening night concert at Madison Square Garden will be completely free and tickets can be won directly from the band's website here.


I know Coldplay gets a bad rap from a lot of music fans but I’ve really come around to their unique sound. The Blot was definitely a hater for a while, but when I finally sat down and took a listen to their last album, X&Y, I realized the cd was actually pretty good. After that I went back and started listening to their older stuff, most of which I've also started to enjoy. Therefore, I’m actually looking forward to seeing what new direction the band has taken with their newest album Viva La Vida.
