Coldplay: 'Watching The X Factor Is Not The Same As Touring'

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin says the band will find it hard when they complete their world tour in London this weekend.

The band are due to finish the year long tour with two shows at Wembley Stadium tonight and tomorrow.

In an interview with BBC 6 Music, Martin said he expected the band and their tour crew would find re-adjusting to life off the road difficult.

"I think people around us find us quite hard to be around," the singer said.

"All of us when you come off tour, at 9pm you get this sudden crazy energy and it's not the same if you're just watching The X Factor."

But Martin added that the band were looking forward to retiring the military costumes they have worn throughout their Viva La Vida world tour.

"If it's one thing we've become known for now it's our ridiculous costumes,” Martin said. “It is like a school uniform and I think we'll feel strange playing a concert without them."

Jay-Z, White Lies and Girls Aloud are due to support Coldplay at their Wembley concerts.
