Coldplay on (as opposed to at) ACL

Coldplay taped Austin City Limits last Friday. The good folks at ACL usually like to sit on their tapings for a few months, but this one was apparently too hot to sit on. It was threatening to start a fire, and no one wanted that. In light of that, the Coldplay ACL show will be aired this Saturday, December 17th. Aired at 7pm in Austin, at other times elsewhere. (Be sure and check your local listings kids.)

My love of and caring for Coldplay increased much after the ACL Festival this year. They played a downright stunning show; if you were close enough to see through the dust storm. I'm a little unsure about how they'll translate to the small screen and to the small (though friendly) confines of the ACL studio. I did watch this promo clip, though, and it gave me one or two chills.

Viewing party at my house.
