Coldplay have been out there playing shows over the last few weeks, before and after releasing their latest album Music Of The Spheres. On Friday night, they were in Seattle covering Pearl Jam. And last night, they made their way down to Los Angeles to perform at the Hollywood Bowl for the 8th annual We Can Survive show, which also featured Black Eyed Peas and Shawn Mendes.
