I think they misspoke. They probably meant to say Nickelback, not Coldplay.
Does anyone else hate Nickelback, Coldplay, Justin Bieber, Billie Eilish, and Maroon 5? Upvotes to the left
I met a blind guy who wanted to experience a concert, so I took him to hear Coldplay. He said, “Now I wish I was also deaf.”
Go to enough concerts without hearing protection and he will get his wish.
I’ve been to hundreds and do have the tinnitus but it doesn’t much bother me at all. I rarely go anymore because of unrelated reasons, but it was all worth it.
I worry because I hear it gets progressively worse even after you’ve stopped exposing yourself to extreme volumes. I raw-dogged two or three shows that were way too loud to be at without protection and that was enough for one ear to have significantly worse hearing than the other, that’s what finally made me start using those musician earplugs. But apparently I can expect the ringing and loss of hearing to continue getting worse anyways…
I live about 10km from a big festival site. We could hear Metallica playing the other year.
Huh didn’t realize people hate Coldplay so much. Not for me, but I didn’t think they were particularly bad.
I could be comatose, damn near brain dead, almost lifeless, and if Rhianna starts singing country I will jump out of the medical bed and throw myself out the nearest window to get away from it.
Not a country fan, or not a Rihanna country fan? I’m neither, really, but curious to hear from people with real opinions on the genre, etc
For a while they were like Maroon 5 level over exposed. I don’t think I’ve heard a song from them in a while though.
To be honest that level of overexposure doesn’t happen if you totally suck. It was cool to hate on them for a while though. You know, just like it’s cool to hate anything mainstream or basic, which is honestly a pretty basic way to view art in general. Like literally all it takes to participate is to notice that something is popular.
Edit: Although to be honest the way media companies love to milk songs to death is super annoying and makes you hate the music. You see it today with trending tiktok sounds. I’d blame this more than the quality of the music.
I read this as if she was on life support.
Did you mean, “turn IT up”?
Also, if bands were colors, Coldplay would be beige.
