British rock band Coldplay has asked their fans in the Philippines and other neighboring countries to send in their video requests which they might choose to play for their upcoming Asian gigs.
The Grammy-winning band’s message to their Asian fans was contained on Instagram.
“If you’re coming to any of the upcoming shows in Asia and there’s a #Coldplay song you’d like to hear (one which the band don’t usually play), then we’d love you to send us your request video. Yours might get chosen and played! Here’s what you need to do… – Record a short video (15 seconds or less) of yourself on a plain background telling us which Coldplay song you’d like the band to play. – Please don’t have any music playing too – just you talking. – Don’t forget to tell us why you’d like to hear your chosen song. – Upload your video to Instagram with the name of your chosen song as a hashtag (ie #Shiver) PLUS the appropriate show hashtag from below (only one show hashtag per post, please);”
“Please tag @Coldplay too. If you’re going to a show in a city which has more than one show, please also tell us which date you’re going to.” #SingaporeRequest, #ManilaRequest, #BangkokRequest, #TaipeiRequest, #SeoulRequest, #TokyoRequest.”
Coldplay will perform at the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City on April 4. The band is composed of vocalist Chris Martin, guitarist Jon Buckland, drummer Will Champion, and bassist Guy Berryman.
