Chris Martin was 'petrified' during filming for new DVD

Chris Martin says he was petrified while behind the scenes footage was being filmed for Coldplay's new Live 2003 DVD.

Chris Martin says he was petrified while behind the scenes footage was being filmed for Coldplay's new Live 2003 DVD.

"It's very weird filming everyday life," Martin explained on the bands official website.

"Cause you're like slave to the camera and you're thinking all the time: ''I better do something interesting', but sometimes you end up just sitting totally still, petrified about doing anything."

Martin also revealed the reason the band chose gig footage from a smaller venue for the DVD.

"The reason we didn't film a big gig was we had to leave ourselves somewhere to go," he explained.

"There's lots of people that hate us since we left the clubs and I understand why, so that's why we haven't gone for a stadium DVD first."

The DVD was filmed at Sydney's Horden Pavilion, which was one of the smallest venues on Coldplay's world tour.

The Sydney performance featured on Live 2003, which was released this week, will be aired on Channel 4 on Saturday morning at 00.15am.
