Coldplay Tour Delays

Filed under: Music Minute

Choppy waters ahead!

According to reports, Coldplay has been forced to postpone the start of their North American tour by 2 weeks because of 'production delays'.

The tour will now begin in LA, July 14th.

The stint was to close August 4th in Chicago but will instead wrap that day in Boston.

Tickets for the scrapped dates will be valid for the new ones, but refunds are also available at points of purchase. An updated itinerary is posted on the band's site.

Coldplay's previously announced free shows in London (June 16), Barcelona (June 17) and New York (June 23) will go on as planned.

What could be these so-called "production delays"????

      production delays means production delays. why do you always think there's something suspicious behind everything? or maybe you just like using inverted commas.

      do you even know the logistics behind a major world tour, perez? obviously not.

      do you even know what the word logistics means? probably not.

      i enjoy reading your site every day, but you need to stop bashing people for no reason. where did this dislike for coldplay come from all of a sudden? glad you can spell their name right now, though.

      Production delays because they realized they suck? :)

      According to my sources…the new songs are more complex than the older piano driven tracks and they need more time to get them right for a live show. Nothing shady or crooked going on, they just want to make sure the songs are performed right…

      Old news. Broaden your horizons, they were on KROQ last week and said these giant balls that they will have on stage aren't finished yet. If you're going to report something, research it, get to the bottom of it, and report the WHOLE story.

      I bet tickets aren't selling, that's their "production issue". Total BS and us fans have to suffer. I had tix for the July show in Detroit, now it's on a Monday in November, what a diss. Their new album isn't great anyhow, this is from a huge fan.

    30. Scott says – reply to this


      30

      I got main floor tickets the day after they went on sale. Must be slow ticket sales. Giant Balls not ready, lame. Reminds me of Spinal Tap and the Stonehenge sculpture

      bastards canceled here in canada without a mention of a planned reschedule… guess I'll DL the new album and redeem my self.

      Miley Cyrus is 50 times more rock n roll than Coldplay. They are shit.

    33. Amand says – reply to this


      33

      This really pissed me off because the original date I was able to attend and now the rescheduled date I cannot….. I am so angry!! They shouldn't just be able to change the dates like that :( :( Very disappointed!!!

    34. tara says – reply to this


      34

      That fucking sucks!!! It means I have to wait till November for the St paul show!!

      :(

    35. dee says – reply to this


      35

      It won't wrap til November - my tix are for Cleveland, which was for July 6th, but has been postponed til October. I'm bummed.

    36. Hayde says – reply to this


      36

      A huge mistake on their part. I can't attend the new date either. Pissing off fans after the sub par album isn't a good idea.

    37. Jessi says – reply to this


      37

      Production delays=slow ticket sales. Notice how they didn't change the dates of the free shows?

      "Production delays" is a euphemism for "someone's in rehab"

      'production delays' poor ticket sales, cause the no production delays for the free show…

    43. Holly says – reply to this


      43

      They are soooo boring. C. Martin shuns the media 99% of the time unless he's got something to promote - then its a different story. Can't do that, screw up concert dates (other people have plans besides him) and expect to keep fans.

      Because they're ripping off Keane now. Because Keane is way better. And I hate Coldplay because that guy has a slobbery tongue. And I hate Gwyneth Paltrow too. God, I love this website.

      45

      Coldplay can kiss Winnipeg Calgary and Edmonton's ass for bailing on yet having 2 shows in T.O - So shocking you'd keep those dates guys! not gonna pay for that album now.

    46. FatPe says – reply to this


      46

      Oh, remember how Perez said Colpday's record leaked and it suck!? Surely that's why there is a so-called production delay. Idiot.

      And oh by the way Tubby, a review of the album BY A PROFESSIONAL British critic to follow.

    47. Chant says – reply to this


      47

      They just took Winnipeg off their tour list! It doesn't look like they are rescheduling. Don't forget us up north!!

      Chris Martin was on KROQ this week and said that they had delays with some "Electronic Balls" they are using in the production of the tour and tweaks had to be made to them, thus delaying the start.

      Yah this shit sucks my husband's birthday is July 3rd, and we were supposed to go to the show in CT that day. Now its postponed, and he will be away with the military in August so the tickets are garbage to me now.

      WHAT A FUCKING DISAPOINTMENT.

      These so called 'production delays' are in fact, actual production delays Perez. It turns out that for their production they need huge glass spheres that light up in different colors. Apparently, as Chris Martin told the listeners to KROQ's Kevin and Bean Morning show on Monday June 2nd, these important pieces of their show will only be ready in time for the Los Angeles shows, so that is why they have to start the tour in L.A.

      whoever said slow ticket sales is a fucking idiot. um, how about coldplay tickets sell OUT within MINUTES of them going on sale. dont be STUPID.

      and im pissed about this too, i have to wait an extra month now. ugh.

      Check out MUSE, a much better band. Coldplay is lite rock, and not in a good way. X&Y totally blows, and the new one has 4 good tunes at best.
