Have you ever seen an actual rider? Like come on guys your a music blog and don't know the first thing about the industry? Next time you get a chance look at Coldplays rider then tell me what is "Treating their bodies like temples"... From someone who works for one of the bands on that show I know to now turn down all interviews from your "Music Blog"

Coldplay sucks shit-buds, and so does your snotty post. Maybe no one asked you for an interview in the first place because you really aren't that important. Try that "I'm with the band" crapo on drunk groupies--maybe you'll get an ego/wiener stroke.

Duly noted. Sorry that phrase didn't agree with you. Thanks for reading.

F/U CU.... Why the hell are you paying an entertainer 80K dollars for a free concert at all?  I can barely afford college.  I now have to take MORE student loans to pay for CRAP like this.  This is just another perfect example of why the cost of college is so high.   

The Regents need to resign that would go a long way towards lowering the cost of college too.

 The money for these concerts don't come from the University, they are likely paid by the CU Student Counsel.  Their revenues are generated from the student fees. Still not exactly free, but not like the University is squandering funds.  Plus, the legal terms are so ridiculously standard considering the context I am not even sure why this is a story. It simply sensationalizes what is absolutely normal..
