Coldplay want YOU to choose the setlist for their Auckland show

What’s that, Coldplay are letting fans choose the setlist for their upcoming tour? Oh yes!

Ahead of their massive night at Auckland’s Mt Smart Stadium, the British rockers are calling on fans to submit their song requests.

To have your say on the setlist for Coldplay’s A Head Full Of Dreams Tour, simply follow these steps set out by the band at coldplay.com:

‘If you’re coming to any of the upcoming shows in India, Australia and New Zealand and there’s a Coldplay song you’d like to hear (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.
