Petr Cech Drums His Way Through Coldplay Classic ‘Yellow’ (Video)

By Chris Wright

There was a time, back in the primordial ooze, that Coldplay were an almost passable band, they were on the brink – but after album upon album of mawkish rhyming couplets, tedious radar-ping guitar motifs and cookie-cutter MOR AOR, well, deary me doesn’t ‘Parachutes’ seem like such a long time ago now?

I digress, here’s Petr Cech drumming his way through ‘Yellow’ with Czech rockers The Eddie Stoilow Band at a do in their homeland in aid of a children’s charity – there’s got to be a ‘between the sticks’-based pun in there somewhere….

Not too shabby to say he’s only been at it for six months, plus it was all for charidee so I think a polite ripple of applause is due all round, don’t you?

Maybe Petr’s eyeing up a spot in Chelsea’s house band?

    Maybe so, but they still make more money than the majority of us put together.

    How very droll, another too cool for school hack having a go at coldplay. How very big and clever. Cheap shot by a cheap journalist

    Coldplay are shit. Radiohead cordial juice, with too much added water.

    I have to admit, I have a bit of a weakness for drummers. When it comes to footballers playing the drums, there can’t be many out there who are better than SC Freiburg defender Heiko Butscher (sorry, Petr):

    I mean, seriously, he can even play the vibraphone. The vibraphone, people!

    Heiko Butscher’s youtube video is much more impressive than Owen Hargreaves.
