I’m not gonna lie– I never really got into Coldplay, but I am a sucker for all things Spanish and bought their most recent album, Viva la Vida, because 1) of the Spanish title, and 2) I heard some of the tracks were recorded in Spanish churches, and I think that’s really rad. Anyway, Coldplay played at All Points East this past weekend, so I was inspired to see what kind of merch they offer. They have a lot of branded T-shirts and water bottles, stuff like that, but what caught my eye was this promotional mug– I swear, slap “Viva la Vida” on anything, and I’ll buy it. It really looks more like a tea cup and would not at all be suitable for the gallons of coffee I drink every morning, but Coldplay is a British band after all so I guess we’ll have to let it slide.
