Coldplay Returns to Budapest for the First Time in 16 Years

The British pop rock band Coldplay have just played their first gig in the Hungarian capital city of Budapest since 2008. The venue was the impressive Puskás Arena, capable of holding 65,000 people. However, it seems that wasn’t enough for Chris Martin and his crew on their “Music of the Spheres” tour, since two more dates had to be added due to high demand. So, the band performed 3 shows in 4 days in Budapest, on June 16th, 18th, and 19th, much to the local music fans’ delight.

The 60-year-old Kravitz, who was married to American actress Lisa Bonet between 1991 and 1993, says he is waiting for “the right woman” to get intimate with again, and that it is a “spiritual thing” for him. Given his fame and fortune, we are quite sure he has plenty of potential partners to choose from.
