COLDPLAY IMITATE MUSE'S LIVE SHOWS

COLDPLAY star CHRIS MARTIN is so impressed by MUSE's live performances, he models his own concerts on the British trio's.
The Yellow hitmakers have been busy preparing to tour in support of new album Viva La Vida and Martin admits the stage show they have created is heavily influenced by hard rockers Muse.
He says, "We love making big shows up and trying to work out what lights will look cool. We get very nerdy about it because we can't believe we're allowed to do it.
"But we will never get as extreme as Muse. We'll let them do the biggest thing and then think, 'Okay, how did they do it?'
"We have always been a step behind Muse. They're so great live."
Coldplay will kick off the North American leg of their tour on 14 July (08) in Los Angeles.
