A Head Full of Dreams Tour
(2016–17)
A Head Full of Dreams Tour[1] was the seventh concert tour undertaken by British alternative rock band Coldplay, launched in support of their namesake seventh studio album A Head Full of Dreams. Marking the band's return to large-scale venues, after the brief and intimate Ghost Stories Tour, the tour visited stadiums and arenas across five continents. The A Head Full of Dreams Tour boasted extensive laser light and pyrotechnic visuals similar to the Mylo Xyloto Tour, and also saw a reappearance of the Xylobands as a central part of the show's visual design. The tour consisted of eight legs, with a total of 124 shows across Latin America, where they performed for the first time since the Viva la Vida Tour, Europe, North America, where they embarked on their very first stadium tour of the United States, Oceania, and Asia. The first show of the tour was held at the Estadio Ciudad de La Plata in La Plata, Argentina, on 31 March 2016 and concluded at the same venue on 15 November 2017. Grossing $523,033,675, the tour is currently the third highest-grossing concert tour in history.[2] A live album covering the tour, which was recorded during several shows, will be released in November 2017.[3] A concert film, filmed in São Paulo, will also be released.[4]

Promotion[edit]
In November 2015, Coldplay announced the Latin American and European legs of the "A Head Full of Dreams Tour" through their official website, with 28 stadium shows confirmed across 14 countries in Europe and Latin America the next year.[5] On 7 December 2015, a fourth and final date at Wembley Stadium, on Wed, 15 June 2016 was announced by the band.[6] The following day, while being interviewed on The Late Late Show with James Corden, the band announced that the tour would also visit Asia and North America.[7]
On 7 April 2016, Coldplay announced 12 new arena dates in the United States.[8] On 29 May 2016, the band will play a homecoming gig in Exeter in England as part of BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend.[9][10] They have also been announced as the first headliners at Glastonbury 2016, performing on Sunday 26 June. This will be the fourth time they've headlined the festival and sets a record for the most number of times a headliner has played.[11] It was also announced that this would be their only festival performance in 2016. However, two more festivals are now on their tour agenda. While nothing has been announced nor confirmed as of yet, Coldplay has expressed an interest to visit less-visited countries during concert tours, such as India, Bangladesh, Nepal and a large amount of Asia, as well as Africa. No dates have been set currently.[12] Further tour dates will be announced after the release of dates of Leg 2 in Europe. On 6 October 2016, it has been confirmed on Twitter that they will visit the United States again and Canada in the Summer of 2017. On 15 November 2016, the band posted a teaser on Facebook announcing an Asian leg in 2017 that would visit Singapore, Philippines, Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan.[13] A week later, Thailand was included in the leg.[14] On 16 March 2017, Coldplay announced extra North American dates in Toronto, Edmonton, and Pasadena.[15]
On 25 August 2017, the Houston concert scheduled that night at NRG Stadium was originally postponed due to Hurricane Harvey. However, on 29 September, Coldplay decided to cancel the concert due to scheduling conflicts with the venue. As compensation, the band announced that ticket holders will receive priority access for the next time they play in Houston.[16]
Opening acts[edit]
Lianne La Havas (left) followed Coldplay for the Latin American and European legs of the tour as its main supporting act, while Alessia Cara (right) served as main support during the North American leg.
For each of the main tour dates, two supporting acts, the first billed as the "opener", and the second as the "main support", performed before the concert.
British folk and soul singer-songwriter Lianne La Havas served as the tour's main supporting act for all the shows during the Latin America leg, the Oceania leg and a majority of the European leg of the tour. Her appearances on the tour follow her own 10-month tour in support of her July 2015-released album Blood, which had ended two weeks before the start of the A Head Full of Dreams Tour.[17] It marked the first stadium shows of Havas' career, and her first performances in Latin America.[18][19] The opening acts during the Latin America leg featured local talent, including Argentinian singer and plastic artist Hana Ciliberti, and Mexican pop rock artist Ximena Sariñana, who performed at the shows in Mexico City.[20]
Canadian R&B and pop artist Alessia Cara performed as a supporting act on the A Head Full of Dreams Tour, serving as the opener on a majority of the shows during the European leg and as the main support during the North American leg.[21] Cara, who turned 21 years old during the tour, had launched into mainstream success in 2015 with "Here",[22][23] and had been performing her first concert tour in the months trailing the A Head Full of Dreams Tour, in support for her debut studio album Know-It-All.[24] Cara, however, skipped three dates on the tour. Swiss artist Lea Lu occupied the opening slot during the show of 11 June in Zurich, Switzerland,[25] while British rock band Reef will perform during the tour's final two London shows.[26] In lieu of La Havas' absence during the show of 11 June in Zurich and the show of 3 July in Stockholm, Sweden, British recording artists Foxes and Birdy served as main support respectively.[27]
Tove Lo (left) was the main supporting act for Coldplay's 2017 European and North American legs, while Dua Lipa (right) is currently the band's main support during their 2017 Latin American leg.
Australian musician Jess Kent performed as the main support for the Oceanian leg and did so again for the Asian leg, starting with the show of 31 March 2017 in Singapore.[28] Japanese rock band Radwimps opened the show of 19 April in Tokyo.[29]
For the 2017 European leg, English duo AlunaGeorge performed as the main support during the Munich, Lyon, Hanover, Brussels, and Dublin shows, while Swedish singer Tove Lo, whom Coldplay has collaborated with for a song called "Fun", served the remainder of the leg as the main support with the exception of the Gothenburg and Cardiff shows, where Danish band Mew and English band Embrace served, respectively. The opener for the leg was Lyves, with the exception of the German shows, where native singer Femme Schmidt performed. For the 2017 North American leg, AlunaGeorge performed as the main support for the August dates with Ethiopian-English singer Izzy Bizu opening, while Tove Lo served as the main support for the September and October dates with Alina Baraz opening.[30]
English singer-songwriter Dua Lipa, whom frontman Chris Martin has collaborated with for a song called "Homesick" from her self-titled debut album, will perform as the main support for the tour's final leg in Brazil and Argentina in November 2017. English musician Jon Hopkins, a frequent collaborator of the band since Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, will also perform as the leg's opener.[31]
Concert synopsis[edit]
A view of the stage at Wembley Stadium, London, during one of the four sold out concerts.
“ I think we're just about at the point in our career where we can get through a concert without playing anything shit. Only now. If we put all our amazing songs together that covers about 20 minutes. Then fill the rest with just pretty good ones. ”
— Chris Martin, replying to a question about a 7-album setlist design.[32]
Similar to the Mylo Xyloto Tour, the A Head Full of Dreams Tour is typically split into five parts; an introduction on the main "A-stage", a performance on the "B-stage", a second set on the A-stage, a set on the outward "C-stage", and finally an encore on the A-stage. Songs played on the A-stage are accompanied by the show's full laser light and pyrotechnic visuals, while performances on the B-stage are not accompanied by such, and songs played on the C-stage are strictly acoustic performances.
Shows typically feature over 20 songs on the setlist, many of which played differently from the recorded versions of the songs, usually combined with intros and outros from other tracks. For example, "Paradise", which closes the opening set of the show, is played with a remix of the song by Tiësto as an outro, while "Fix You" is played with the instrumental background from "Midnight". A majority of the songs played during the tour come from the namesake album A Head Full of Dreams, and from the band's previous studio album, Ghost Stories, though songs from the band's earlier discography, such as Mylo Xyloto and A Rush of Blood to the Head are routinely played and shuffled across the setlist between shows. Frontman Chris Martin expressed satisfaction with the setlist, stating that the band were "enjoying playing really old songs", and that the tour "will finally have a setlist where we feel good about it from start to finish."[33]
Apart from the band's own songs, covers of songs by other artists were also performed, with "Heroes" by David Bowie being a staple on the setlist in 2016, during the middle of the second A-stage set. The cover is a tribute to the late Bowie, whose death in January 2016 had been massively publicized by both the media and music fans alike. According to Martin, he and Bowie were good friends, claiming that Bowie even had assigned the nickname of "Sticky Martinez" to him.[34] The relationship between the band and Bowie musically, however, was not as profound; Bowie had earlier rejected a collaboration for Lhuna, a charity single released by the band in 2008 featuring Australian singer-songwriter Kylie Minogue, after deeming the song was simply "not one of [their] best".[35] Prior to the start of the tour, Martin also took to covering Bowie's songs, such as "Life on Mars?" on The Howard Stern Show and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in the weeks following Bowie's death.[36][37] The band also occasionally plays "'Til Kingdom Come"/"Ring of Fire", a combination between the X&Y song and the classic Johnny Cash song, which the band had initially conceived for the Twisted Logic Tour and also appeared in the setlist during the Viva la Vida Tour and Mylo Xyloto Tour. Occasionally, impromptu moments, usually during "A Sky Full of Stars" may also lead to an additional song being performed, as was the case during the band's performance of 5 April at the Estadio Nacional de Lima in Peru, where Chris Martin sang "Happy Birthday to You" for his son Moses.[38] Following the death of musician Prince in April 2016, the band covered several of his songs as tributes: "Raspberry Beret",[39] "Sometimes It Snows in April" with Lianne La Havas,[40] and "Nothing Compares 2 U" with James Corden.[41] Following the death of musician Tom Petty in October 2017, the band covered his song "Free Fallin' as tribute, with Peter Buck at Portland and Corden at Pasadena; they also dedicated to him their song "Everglow".
Another staple of the setlist is a segment of the show known as the "Fan Dedication Song", where a song is requested by fans attending particular concerts on the tour, through social media service Instagram, for the band to play during their C-stage set.[42] The segment was described by Martin as being similar to a photo booth, stating, "we'd ask people to give us a reason why they want us to play that song so there is a purpose behind why we play it."[33][43]

Plot[edit]
This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. (October 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Johnny Truelove is a young marijuana dealer living in Southern California. His father, Sonny, supplies him with marijuana, which Johnny distributes to his gang of friends, including Jake Mazursky, who owes him a $1,200 drug debt. Jake makes a failed attempt at asking his father Butch and stepmother Olivia for the money. Meanwhile, Butch and Olivia are dealing with their rebellious teenage son Zack, who admires his older brother. A fight breaks out between Jake and Johnny when the former tries to pay Johnny only part of his debt. After back and forth retaliation, Johnny and his friends, Frankie and Tiko, go to confront Jake in person, but when they arrive at his house he is nowhere to be found. As they leave, they find Zack walking on the side of the road, and decide to kidnap him with the intent of holding on to him until Jake pays his debt.
Wanting a break from his home life, Zack makes no effort to escape. Johnny pawns Zack off on Frankie, who offers him a chance to leave, but Zack declines, not wanting to cause any problems for his brother. Zack stays with Frankie at his father's house and the two strike up an unlikely friendship. The next day, Zack ingratiates himself with Frankie's friends Keith Stratten, Susan Hartunian, and Julie Beckley, although Susan is the only one who seems concerned.
Frankie grows nervous when Johnny tells him that they could get in serious trouble for the kidnapping and hypothetically offers him $2,500 to kill Zack. Frankie furiously declines and Johnny claims it was a joke. Instead, he agrees to Frankie's plan to pay Zack to keep quiet. However, after a threatening phone call from Jake, and a phone call from his lawyer who tells him he could face life in prison for the kidnapping he decides the risk of ending up dead or in jail is too great to let Zack go. Johnny calls his associate Elvis Schmidt and offers to erase his debt if he kills Zack. Frankie and his friends still believe Zack will be returning home that night and throw a raucous going away party. Zack has a good time at the party, and later goes skinny dipping with Julie and her friend Alma, which leads to a threesome. After the party Julie gives Zack her number, and Alma gives him a goodbye kiss on the cheek.
Elvis arrives at the hotel where Zack is waiting to be picked up, and he and Frankie begin to argue when he reveals Johnny sent him there to kill Zack. When Frankie leaves Elvis takes Keith to dig a grave. Frankie offers Zack a final opportunity to escape, but believing that he is now a part of the group, and will be returning home soon Zack prefers to wait for Elvis to return. Meanwhile, Sonny, Cosmo (Johnny's godfather) and their lawyer confront Johnny, who refuses to call off the hit. When Elvis and Keith return to the hotel, Elvis and Frankie go outside to talk. Frankie, reluctant because of the friendship he has formed with Zack, finally relents when Elvis tells him they could face life in prison if Zack tells someone what happened.
Frankie, Elvis, Zack and Keith arrive at the grave site. Zack is not aware of what's going on but grows suspicious when a saddened Keith tells Frankie he can't go through with it and goes to wait in the car after giving Zack a goodbye hug. When Zack sees the grave, he begins to break down, and begs them to let him go. Frankie tells Elvis they shouldn't go through with it, but Elvis is keen on the job he's been given. Frankie calms Zack down, and ties him up with duct tape. Elvis then knocks Zack into the grave and shoots him multiple times with an automatic Mac-10, killing him. Zack's body is found three days later.
The epilogue shows the aftermath of the crime. Olivia, now suffering from obesity and depression, talks candidly about her failed suicide attempts and the loss she has experienced from her son's death. Susan angrily confronts Frankie over Zack's death and goes to the authorities. Elvis is caught while trying to secure a ride out of LA. Johnny flees the city and arrives at the house of old classmate Buzz Fescke, who drives him back to Cosmo's house, where he enters and is not seen again.
Tiko, Keith and Frankie are all arrested and serve their respective sentences - Tiko is convicted of kidnapping and sentenced to nine years in prison. Keith is convicted of second degree murder for digging Zack's grave and remains at the California Youth Authority until the age of 25. Frankie is convicted of aggravated kidnapping of special circumstances and receives a life sentence with the possibility of parole after 7 years. Elvis is convicted of kidnapping and first degree murder, He's currently on Death Row in San Quentin State Prison
The interviewer asks Sonny how his son was able to escape authorities for four years without help, but Sonny assures him he doesn't know where his son is. On screen text reveals that in 2005, after over five years of being on America's most wanted list, Johnny is finally found and arrested in Paraguay. Johnny is in California awaiting trial, and, if proven guilty, faces the death penalty.

Legal issues[edit]
During filming, Santa Barbara County Deputy District Attorney Ronald J. Zonen provided copies of many documents on the case and served as an unpaid consultant to the film, citing his desire to have Hollywood captured. Zonen prosecuted Hollywood’s co-defendants and was poised to prosecute Hollywood. After Hollywood was captured in Saquarema, Brazil, and subsequently returned to the United States, his defense lawyer claimed Zonen had a conflict of interest; the California Court of Appeal for the Second District ruled on October 5, 2006, that Zonen should be recused from further involvement in prosecuting Hollywood because of his disclosure of the files and work on the film.[8][9] The California Supreme Court subsequently reversed that holding,[10][11] but Zonen was replaced as lead prosecution attorney by Deputy District Attorney Joshua Lynn.[citation needed]
Hollywood's attorney James Blatt tried to block the release of the film.[12]
After the delay, Hollywood's trial started May 15, 2009, with the defense's opening statements saying Hollywood was not involved with the murder.[13] In his opening statement, Lynn described Hollywood as "a ruthless coward."[14] On July 8, 2009, Hollywood was convicted of simple kidnapping and first-degree murder with special circumstances and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.[4]
Release[edit]
Box office[edit]
During its opening weekend, Alpha Dog grossed $6,412,775 and was #7 at the box office.[15] The film closed on February 22, 2007 after grossing $15,309,602 domestically, and totaled $32,145,115 worldwide over its six-week release.[2]
Critical reception[edit]
The film received mixed reviews; out of 143 critics, 55% of them were positive[16] with the consensus being, "a glossy yet unflinching portrait of violent, hedonistic teenagers. Bruce Willis and Sharon Stone chew the scenery, while Justin Timberlake gives a noteworthy performance."
Yelchin was praised as "able to bring all of the conflicting emotions of Zack," and conveying all of it beautifully.[17]
Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B-" on an A+ to F scale.[18]
Markowitz family reaction[edit]
Susan Markowitz attempted suicide three times.[19] Jeff Markowitz elaborated, "She is so tortured by what happened that she has tried to take her own life. The last thing that either of us want is to see this picture. How would any loving parent feel about a Hollywood movie that glamorizes their son's death and allows celebrities to cash in on a brutal, evil murder?"[20] Nonetheless, both Susan and Jeff Markowitz attended the film's premiere, and Susan stated she was moved by Anton Yelchin's portrayal of Zack (Nick). After the screening, she embraced Sharon Stone, who played Olivia (Susan).[19]
