Coldplay Sews?

This article came across the wires today from Contactmusic.com. Coldplay is a favorite band to many, unfortunately I find them a little melancholy and really only like one of their songs (Fix You). But whoa! I think this is pretty cool. Here’s the writ-up!

Rockers COLDPLAY have revealed the unusual hobby they have taken up to help them unwind on tour – sewing.
Frontman Chris Martin claims the Yellow hitmakers have bonded while stitching their stage costumes, and insists their secret pastime has made them a more tight-knit group.
Martin says, “Making clothes together in our studio makes us feel complete. We probably sound like a group of grannies in a knitting circle but it’s the truth and it gives us some control over our visual identity.
“We see if they have a sewing kit in the amenities draw in case we feel inspired.
“When you are a big band and everyone is taking shots at you, the more things you can do together the better.
“And if you’re wearing uniforms made by your own hands it helps.”
