The world’s biggest alternative rock band has brought its “Music of the Spheres” world tour to El Paso, Texas, giving both local and global fans an opportunity to experience what many music spectators view as a once in a lifetime concert.

The demand to see Coldplay was so large, that the British band dedicated two nights to perform in front of a sold out Sun Bowl, at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP)!

The Prospector dives deep into Coldplay’s performance, and concert goers’ thoughts on seeing the band!
