I suppose that's a pretty huge number nowadays - to actually sell that many albums? Or is that counting streams (if "per album" stream numbers are A Thing)?

brettredmayne Posted August 25, 2022 Report Share Posted August 25, 2022 Looking at these tour dates and how many dates keep getting added it puts the negative spin on them in perspective. Clearly the biggest uk band , I can’t think of anyone else that would come close to these ticket sales worldwide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ticket master put on their twitter to join the queue and wait. I’ve been in the Amsterdam queue for an hour and there’s still 190,000 in front of me. #f5isbad 1 hour ago, Hugh Jass II said: HOW?? HOW ARE COLDPLAY SHIFTING SO MANY TICKETS??? Well I live in the NL and the terrible but popular radio station on in my office plays them about 3 times a (work)day. As in not this week but in the last months, not to say years. Along with Dua Lipa, Harry stiles and Imagine dragons.

Adele might sell out two stadiums here in Sweden, but I doubt it. Ed sheeran sold out 2 dates this summer, I think he is the closest one to Coldplay in terms of popularity here. Elton would definitely not sell out a stadium here, last time he was here he played a mid-sized arena (11k) and a amusement park (17k). Coldplay added another show in Gothenburg on the 11th july for 3 shows in total. Bought tickets for one of the shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I do that sometimes but some of my co-workers are a bit old fashioned and don't really like the "headphones on" look. I believe I am the only one not enjoying this radio station -> coldplay sells in the NL. I once tried to sneakingly change it to something slightly better and it was sneakingly changed back 😞 . Coldplay and Imagine Dragons win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw some of my friends on the train with them still on on their story. Naughty boys! The boxes were nearly full as we left and we saw a lot being handed back. I love how they came out with that nonsense about making tours sustainable (clearly leading the way in this situation would be to not do so - I know the vehicle stuff, floor etc helps the band themselves but it still encourages us fans to travel around in a way we wouldn't otherwise) - people are understandably going to always try to find a way to catch them out.
