Coldplay's crazy concert moments: Astronomer CEO Andy Byron's 'Kiss Cam' incident to honoring Jasprit Bumrah

A ‘Kiss Cam’ would never be the same again (at least for Coldplay), after Andy Byron, the CEO of Astronomer, and Kristin Cabot, Chief People Officer (HR Department), were accidentally exposed for having an alleged infidelity while being displayed. The video has been getting mixed reactions: some have sparked outrage for the workplace professionalism, and others have been sharing memes and blatantly mocking the duo.

The ‘that’ incident happened at a Coldplay concert in Boston, which was part of their ‘Music of the Spheres’ tour. While Andy and Kristin would always be remembered by the fans, there have been other incidents that were either gushed over or laughed over. Let’s take a look at the iconic moments from the concerts.

Chris Martin's fall

In the preceding year, Chris Martin and his bandmates were performing at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne, Australia. While he was addressing the audience, the 48-year-old was stepping back without looking behind, and bang! He fell into the open trapdoor of the stage, and fortunately, there were a couple of people from the crew standing inside the hold who caught him and assisted him in getting back up.

He said, “That wasn't planned. Thank you for catching me so much. Thank you guys, holy s–t, that was a YouTube moment,” and indeed it was.

The Jasprit Bumrah moment at Coldplay

Chris Martin, being a fan of cricket, surprised the concertgoers at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai in January 2025 when he mentioned the prolific cricketer, Jasprit Bumrah. He joked about ending the concert early because Bumrah was waiting backstage and he could bowl to him.

A couple of days later, when Coldplay was performing in Ahmedabad, Bumrah visited the concert, and Martin honoured him. “O Jasprit Bumrah, my beautiful brother. The best bowler in the whole of cricket. We did not enjoy watching you destroy England, wicket after wicket,” referring to India’s win against England.

A 15-year-old sang with Chris Martin

Chris Martin, the kind and generous musician, performed ‘Everglow’ with a 15-year-old, making his dream come true. As the vocalist sat in front of his piano, he held up a poster that read, "I manifested this moment. I'm ready for it. Can I play Everglow with you?” Well, the singer asked whether they could sing together. The 15-year-old was given the opportunity to play the piano, while Martin sat next to him. As he looked at the boy, the talented fan kept playing the tune during the concert in Mumbai.

Honorary mention: Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot's awkward moment

How can we ever forget this? The CEO of Astronomer, Andy Byron, and the CPO, Kristin Cabot, were in each other’s arms, and the camera panned towards them during the ‘Kiss Cam’ session. Making both of them startle, Cabot turned around and eventually left the frame, while Byron tried to hide behind a glass barricade.

As a response, Martin joked, “Either they're having an affair or they're just really shy." “Oh s–t, I hope we didn't do something bad,” he added.
