Coldplay Is Giving It Away!
Coldplay wants to be nice to their fans and also promote their live CD, LeftRightLeftRightLeft.
In fact, for the rest of their concerts this year, the band will be giving away FREE live CDs to everyone that attends their shows - not including festivals.
According to the band's site, starting with their first North American tour date on May 15th in West Palm Beach, Florida, "every fan attending a show will be given a free copy of the nine-track CD, which won't be available elsewhere."
Also on the 15th, LeftRightLeftRightLeft will be available to download for free on the band's site.
So what's the reason for the generosity?
Apparently the free CDs are meant as a "recession-busting mark of gratitude to everyone who's supported them."
Coldplay claims that "Playing live is what we love. This album is a thank you to our fans – the people who give us a reason to do it and make it happen."
Free sounds good to us!

wow a post that didn't involve Miss california. Did your mother write this post?
or a post about Lady Gaga
If it were some of the artists that you did like, you'd say how sells must be low or something bad about them giving away CDs.
Cool… Make it good Coldplay. Make it good.
NICE!!! Thanks Coldplay!!!
You really are an ugly mother fucker, arent you
ooh how nice of them. seriously thats cool
Still overpriced.
that's really nice of them
ummmmm PEREZ this doesn't sound at all familiar to you? kind of like….RADIOHEAD…a little copycatish to me
THEY CAN KEEP IT.
And this is why coldplay is one of my fav bands… good job Chris… well played sir!
Yawn.
That's cool, very nice of them. I like their music but I won't go to their concert.
Ewwwwwwwwwwwwww Coldplay! Even for free, I don't want their shitty music.
NO THANKS!
YES!
oh really coldplay?
a mark of gratitude or a yet another copied act from radiohead???
wooop!!!
Their music sucks anyways so NO coldplay NOT even for free!
Who cares? Coldplay is one of the planet's most boring and arrogant bands.
i fucken HATE coldplayy!!
Even if they paid me I still wouldn't listen to em.
Yeah right, like they EVER show up for a concert- they cancel like it's hot.
Smart marketing. It will ensure that their tour sells out. And that's how musicians make money these days…
I loooove Coldplay, not a bad CD to date! I can't believe they already have something new coming out!!!! they are so awesome, and so great live.
yay!!!
coldplay is laaaaaaaaame!
***COLDPLAY FANS**** there is MUCH better music out there!

Re: bongo – why keep coming back for more then?
perezhilton.com IS a gossip blog ya know?
it's nice of them.
but.
they wouldn't do anything like that without any profit.
free cd!! overpriced tickets!! come now!
Re: Charlie Prince –
OK #15, you got in first. Who'd want to pay for that SH*#!
Even if it's free, i'd feel ripped off.
There live shows are amazing so it should be a really good CD. If it were just for marketing they would have announced it months ago, before tickets went on sale for their US shows. They start touring in a few weeks so it's a bit late for it to be a ticket sale thing. Most shows are already sold out.
Can't wait. Thanks Coldplay. It's just another reason why I love ya! (plus the guitarist is rather lovely!)
sorry but they have to pay me to listen to their crap
How about this, instead? Coldplay gives me a dollar every time I accidentally hear one of their songs?
FYI - those albums WILL factor into soundscan reports.
Can't wait to see them in Pittsburgh and Buffalo!!
