    Wow, Chris Martin really does sound like a douche. I wonder how much input the rest of the band have in their own demise.

    Chris Martin really is just a gigantic tit.
    I don't think that bands should keep going past 33
    Or once they've run out of U2 sounds to pilfer? Eh?

    "I'm 31 now and I don't think that bands should keep going past 33"

    What kind of logic is that? Did he arbitrarily pick 33 or was there some science used to produce the magic age at which bands should quit?

    Speaking of which, I think by the age of 28 I need to start eating healthier, so I am gonna go eat Rotel dip until my pants feel tight.
    I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too.

    That's got to be one of the dumbest quotes I've ever read. It makes ZERO sense.

    No shit. Don't hurt the piano Chris, please.

    so he thinks PJ are one of the best live bands and they are in their 40's but thinks bands should break up by 33... haha weird...

    i find this article hard to believe.

    I hate to hear that as I like them, but is he really that far off on his assumption?

    Just for the hell of it, can we name at least 25 bands that are still relevant and making quality music after hitting 30?

    PJ
    Foo Fighters
    Tool

    I'm pretty sure he said the same crap after they made A Rush of Blood to the Head. He likes to hear himself talk, like Bono. But Bono is interesting.

    I was just thinking the exact same thing. What an idiotic thing to say. This guy is really becoming quite the douchebag.

    imagine how much personal investment goes into making his music that he can walk away from it so nonchalantly... "past 33"?!? kindof a random number... i fuckin hate passive aggressive behavior and this just wreaks of a "friendly" way of saying fuck off to his bandmates so he can do his own thing... he doesnt exactly need a band to do his syrupy sweet falsetto piano shit anyway

    anyway... this is a moment of celebration... lets not question his intentions
