A Pemberton Counterpoint From The Fine People Of Live Nation
Tue Jul 29 2008 by Dan Gibson
While this site previously reported that there were troubles at the inaugural Pemberton Festival this weekend, including dust storms, traffic issues, and horrific bathrooms, Live Nation would like you, and any of the company’s stockholders, to know that the British Columbian music festival was a “triumphant success,” and that they’ve still got it going on when it comes to putting on multi-day concerts.

The inaugural Pemberton Music Festival, which went down last weekend and featured headlining sets by Coldplay, Tom Petty, and Jay-Z, was not without its problems: dust clouds that caused much respiratory distress on days one and two; the threat of rain on day three; members of N.E.R.D. reportedly… More »

Coldplay Is Having A Decidedly Mixed Week
Wed Jun 11 2008 by Maura
Sure, their single may be No. 1 on the digital charts and they might be planning to work with Anton Corbijn on its video, but Coldplay’s label-saving album leaking last week and the president of said label being shown the door have to weigh on Chris Martin and his bandmates. And now comes the news that the band’s tour has been delayed by at least two weeks, thanks to “production delays which mean the show simply won’t be ready” by its original June 29 kickoff date. (Perhaps the paint on the 50-foot reproduction of Viva La Vida’s cover art is taking a really long time to dry?) The free shows in London, Barcelona, and New York are still happening on their originally scheduled dates, but once again, the people of Philadelphia will get the shaft, as their tour-opening show has been pushed back until late July. The new itinerary, after the jump.

Coldplay has announced North American tour dates for this summer and fall, as well as a pair of free shows–one at London’s Brixton Academy on June 16 and another at New York’s Madison Square Garden on June 23. The free-show impulse seems a little weird at first–at least until you remember that in those parts of the world, only the “little people” don’t wrangle themselves onto guest lists. Way to be egalitarian for those people living nearby and/or willing to travel, guys! Full list of shows after the jump.
