coldplaycd.jpgMake sure you check out Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" North American Tour dates. The band starts touring July 14 and 15 at The Forum in Los Angeles - and things are going to kick off right seeing as these two dates are already sold out! With 30,000 tickets sold in under 45 minutes time for the two start dates, that is quite impressive.

Many people were put out when they heard Coldplay had to reschedule the start of the tour due to production delays, and the band had this to say, "We're very sorry, but we promise you a show worthy of your patience and understanding when we start in mid-July." Tickets that were already purchased for those first few dates will be honored on the newly scheduled dates.

Already the biggest album pre-order in iTunes history, Viva La Vida also set the record for highest first-week album sales ever on the iTunes® Store worldwide. Today the album's title song surpasses "Clocks" as the band's biggest-selling single to date on the iTunes Store. "Viva La Vida" hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 last week, marking Coldplay's first Hot 100 No. 1 single ever, and it debuted this week at No. 1 on the U.K. Singles chart.

Coldplay will perform on Comedy Central's The Daily Show with Jon Stewart tomorrow, June 25th, and on the TODAY show on NBC this Friday, June 27th. The band will also appear on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on July 17th. Lead singer Chris Martin is featured on the cover of the current Rolling Stone and Coldplay is on the cover of Spin's July issue (on sale now).

Coldplay's latest album, Viva La Vida, debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 with over 720,000 copies sold in its first week of release in the U.S. Viva La Vida has topped the U.K. album chart for the second week in a row, where it is the fastest-selling album of the year, and No. 1 rankings continue to come in from around the globe including Japan, Australia, Canada, France and Germany.
