MARTIN FEARS FOR COLDPLAY TOUR

COLDPLAY frontman CHRIS MARTIN fears the band will struggle to sell tickets on their upcoming tour because of the global economic crisis.

The band is set to take to the road in November (08) with dates in the U.S., U.K. and Japan.

But Martin is convinced that the live dates will prove less popular than previous tours - because music fans are less likely to spend their cash on luxuries like gigs.

He says, "It (the financial downturn) probably means you sell five per cent fewer tickets. People have less money for concerts."
