Coldplay Say They 'Feel No Pressure Playing Free Gigs'
Coldplay guitarist Jonny Buckland has admitted that the band have felt little pressure during their recent comeback shows.
Speaking to BBC Newsbeat, Buckland said that their two London shows, in Brixton on Monday and BBC Television Centre on Wednesday, had both been “really fun” to play.
"You don't have to be great if nobody is paying any money,” he said.
As previously reported on Gigwise, Coldplay are expected to top the UK singles charts on Sunday with 'Viva La Vida', the title track off their new album.
With the album currently at number one in the album charts, Buckland said he was “quite excited” about scoring a chart double.
"I can't really believe it but then it's probably not going to happen anyway, is it?" he said.

Libertines duo reunite to pen stage musical
Pete Doherty and his former bandmate Carl Barat have reunited to write a stage musical together, it has been confirmed.
The pair, who were formerly in The Libertines, will write the musical for the Donmar Warehouse in London.
A spokesperson for the theatre, which is located in London's Covent Garden, said its associate director, actor Douglas Hodge, had been working with the songwriting duo.
The project, however, was "very much in the early stages of development, with no deadlines attached", she said.
According to various reports, the musical will document the struggles of an up-and-coming rock 'n' roll band.
Last April, Doherty and Barat performed together for the first time since the Libertines split up in 2004.
Both have new band projects, with Doherty fronting Babyshambles and Barat currently working on his second album for Dirty Pretty Things.
Their one-off reunion in April followed an interview with Barat in which he said he would be "happy" to work with Doherty again "at some point".
At last week's NME Awards, Barat told the Sunday Mirror he had been approached by the Donmar to write a musical with Doherty.
He said: "The theatre wants lots of new songs. We'll probably have to write about 20."

Scarlett Johansson - Johansson Snubs Cannes Premiere
SCARLETT JOHANSSON snubbed the premiere of WOODY ALLEN's latest movie VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA at the Cannes International Film Festival after movies bosses reportedly refused to cater to her diva demands.
The blonde beauty - who stars in the new movie alongside Penelope Cruz - was expected to grace the red carpet at the French festival on Saturday (17May08), but missed the prestigious premiere amid rumours movie bosses at the French arm of Warner Bros Films - the production's distributors - reportedly denied her extravagant hospitality expectations.
According to British newspaper the Daily Mail, the Lost In Translation star made a string of demands to ensure her appearance at the renowned festival - including a $8,000 (GBP4,000) a day make-up artist.
Reports also suggest Johansson was unwilling to stay at a luxurious central Cannes hotel with director Allen and co-star Penelope Cruz, preferring a suite at a hotel 30 miles away.
A source tells the publication, "While Woody's terribly fond of Scarlett, he was a little upset that she wasn't being a team player."
Johansson's male-star, Spanish Oscar-winner Javier Bardem, also missed the movie's Cannes premiere on Saturday, citing personal family reasons for his non-appearance.
