artist stats Coldplay become the first band in history to gross $1 billion from a single tour

[gustavothehuman]

They also broke Ed Sheeran's record for most attended concert run of all time 

[Katamari]

Wonder how U2 is going to respond to this 

 

Ot: congrats to these legends 

[Popboi.]

There's still so many dates to be reported and even to be announced, coming for at least $1.2 billion

[CherryBay]

Legends 

[getBusy]

ok now TAX THEIR ASS

[PoisonedIvy]

Could they get to a 10 million attendance record? This is a phenomenal record to achieve either way  Legends cemented in the history books forever for this.

[Broken]

Wow .

 

Remember the "It's embarrasing to like Coldplay" or something thread? Lol.

[Patient Zero]

I didn't know they are still this popular

There are still four shows in Ireland, eight in Australia and three in New Zealand, so it's definitely happening! Word on the street says they'll do 10-date residencies in London, Paris and Berlin next year too

Brazil is high on my wishlist so that would be a fun option

The amount of tickets 

[Seeyuh]

it pays to be basic

That is HUGE. Coldplay's longevity is what makes them outstanding. Their appeal is universal. And I think it's great when they ventured more into pop/electronic/dance-y music with A Sky Full of Stars, Something Just Like This and My Universe at the right time, because that widened their appeal. I still prefer the older albums because that's their signature sound in my opinion, but they timed their transition perfectly helping them with more longevity.

 

I do love Higher Power I wish that song would get more love!

Well it may not be a Coldplay sound but it helped them be relevant during that period. And the song slaps! I actually prefer SJLT over My Universe

Tasteless!

It's more impressive how their ticket average price is only $100 compared to other big artists.

Totally love the tour. Yellow in Stadium was magic

Here for the higher power love, that and Adventures of a lifetime are the best of the electronic and dancey stuff we got

I saw them in Dublin last Friday - what an amazing experience! The lights and fireworks are so good! This is one of the most entertaining concerts I've been to.

SJLT is top 5 worst Coldplay songs, sorry. My Universe is actually fine.
