Austin’s Shearwater Touring With Coldplay…?
So I don’t know how carefully you all read the papers, but did you happen to notice the news about Austin-based Shearwater? Apparently they've been tapped to open up for Coldplay on the first four dates of their U.S. tour. I’m not sure, but I think this makes Shearwater more famous than their sister-band Okkervil River. Don’t worry Will Sheff...we still love you anyway.
Shearwater have been touring hard behind their latest release, Rook (read Transmission's record review here, buy it here). As part of their relentless performance schedule, the band has already spent time on the road with the mysterious masked-men of Clinic; according to their messageboard, Shearwater even got to put Clinic in the back of a pickup truck and escort them to a BBQ joint. Maybe this time they can ride scooters to Mr. Natural with Coldplay (it's good).
In any case, if you want to catch Shearwater with Coldplay, you'd better start saving now. First of all, the closest they will be to Austin is Las Vegas, and generally Coldplay tickets cost a billion dollars (approximately). Well, I'm exaggerating, but I did see Coldplay on their X&Y tour and a single ticket a LONG way from the stage was roughly $90.
Coldplay do put on a fantastic show, though, especially considering they're an arena band. Lead singer/pianist Chris Martin spends a solid 2 hours sprinting across the stage and running from the stage to the back of the audience. The English 4-piece also employs the "big balloon" a la the Flaming Lips. And if you don’t like Coldplay, well, my advice is to try and pretend, as their tunes are adept at getting dudes laid. So there's that.
At any rate, this is great news for Shearwater, an Austin band that's representing our scene well.
