Chris Martin, the frontman of music group Coldplay, is putting himself up for auction. The man has confirmed he will play an exclusive one-song gig in the living room of a child at the Canonbury Primary School in North London.
Not without reason but Chris agreed to play the show because Coldplay's business manager, Paul Makin, is in fact a parent at the school. Thus, the exclusive one-off performance by him has been auctioned for £5,000 (approximately $10,000).
Moreover, it is reported that the un-named parent stumped up £5,000 for the concert after bidding began at £400, quickly rising into the thousands. Was presided over by Conservative MP and Islington, London resident Boris Johnson, money raised from the auction will benefit a new resource and IT center.
