Coldplay constantly watch audiences during gigs to refine song lists


English alternative rock band Coldplay constantly watch their audiences during concerts so that they can figure out which songs they are enjoying, and finally complicate their set list.
If the ‘Fix You’ hitmakers see people getting restless during certain songs, they axe the track from subsequent gigs.
“In some songs all you can look is a clear doorway and you can hear the crowd singing so you think, ‘Greatful, this song is great.’ And then it’s when the light all starts getting blocked and everyone’s going to the bathroom. Then you’re like, ‘OK, that song’s out,’” Contactmusic quoted frontman Chris Martin as saying.
The quartet, presently regarded as one of the world’s longest bands, started the UK leg of their world tour last weekend. (ANI)
