Maybe one of you kids can help me with this:

Who the hell is Coldplay and why the hell should I care?




Now I'm off to shake my fist at those damn kids on my lawn.

"Coldplay is a post-Britpop/alternative rock band from London, United Kingdom well known for their rock melodies and introspective lyrics."

Apparently they refuse to sell out for multi-million dollar deals. Therefore they are idiots. Man, I can't wait until I'm famous so I can sell out.

They sound highly typical and redundant. Have they made any songs I would recognize? Like, a song from a movie or somthing...

There used to be this band called Pearl Jam. They were heroes for not selling out, not making videos, and going to war with Tickermaster. Then I think they fell off the edge of the world or something.

I have no idea, I don't listen to the group. I had to go search for information and treasure. I only found information.

Pearl Jam's still around to some degree. They played at the big Rock the Vote concerts that Springsteen put together last year. A friend of mine sent me video of their set (it was simulcast on some cable network). Good stuff.

I'm sure musically Pearl Jam is as good as ever. I've always loved thier music and especially the lyrics. But if you don't play "the game" you sort of fall off the map.

True.
