If you are one of the 80,000 attendees to the massive Global Citizen festival today, your primary contention remains: "Will Coldplay get enough stage time?" In short: Yes, the band is slotted to play a 90-minute set. Also, if you are lucky, the big ending could be an all-star jam session that brings out all the performers in one big blowout.
Viraf Sarkari, show director, Wizcraft said: "(The all-star jam as the finale) is absolutely dependent on Coldplay. It's a decision that has to be taken impromptu, after Coldplay plays a full concert set. Chris Martin is a cool guy, and there's been good bonding between him and all the performers over the past two days. Hopefully something great will come out of this, although no commitment has been made yet."
Stage play
Many a times, festival goers attend gigs where the headlining act is nothing more than just a big name whose primary function is to serve as a 'crowd puller.' But according to a GCI spokesperson, not only will Martin and his boys play a longer-than-average set, but even the other international artists such as Jay-Z and Demi Lovato, will be on stage for ample amount of time. "Coldplay will perform for a minimum of 90 minutes — guaranteed," said Bhavya Bishnoi, spokesperson, Global Citizen India.
