This update came after news that the concert tickets for Coldplay’s performance on April 1 in Singapore had sold out within 90 minutes. Up to 40,000 tickets have reportedly been sold so far.
Coldplay visited Thailand during the tour for their second album A Rush of Blood to the Head in July 2003, from which the musicians performed some of their hit tracks, such as “In My Place”, “The Scientist” and “Clocks”.
Amid this concert hype, Coldplay also announced plans to release an extended play album called Kaleidoscope next year. (kes)
