Coldplay Performs 2 Nights at Hollywood Palladium w/ 18 Song Set

Coldplay caused a bit of commotion last year when they revealed they would put plans to tour on pause over concerns of the impact concerts have on the environment. Thankfully, Chris Martin and the gang booked a small series of intimate gigs for the Everyday Life Promo shows, the guys began their small trek on November 22 in Amman, Jordan before heading to London, Paris and Los Angeles. The only other shows on their touring schedule for 2020 are February 16 in San Diego, California and February 21 at The Dublin Castle in London.

With such a limited amount of shows, we're thankful we were able to attend the January 21 show at LA's Hollywood Palladium, it's not every day that you get to witness an iconic band in a 5,000 capacity venue! One thing worth noting from the January 21 show is that somehow, the correct setlist was uploaded to our site well before the show was over... setlist.fm users are kinda the best!

Let's take a look at what happened during the LA shows at the Palladium shall we? For the first 9 songs, the setlist was identical both nights before the guys switched it up and cut out "Amsterdam" and moved "Everyday Life" up the setlist, performing the single before the encore on the second night instead of closing out the whole show with it.

The encores are where the setlists differed in a big way, fans who attended the first show were able to witness "A Sky Full of Stars" and "Sparks" which you can watch below:

Check out the full setlist from their January 20 show below:

During the January 21 show, Coldplay's encore began with the song "Guns" followed by two songs that didn't make the setlist the night before, the fan-favorite "The Scientist" which was a moment, hearing the crowd sing a long before Chris even begins sent chills down my spine, it was such a beautiful performance, along with a performance of The Chainsmokers collaboration, "Something Just Like This." Check out performances of both songs along with the full setlist from the January 21 show below.

All in all, Coldplay delivered a night of mostly new music but the addition of their signature hits sprinkled throughout was enough to satisfy a casual fan though I don't think many casual fans were in attendance at this 5,000 capacity event.
