Coldplay concert in Ahmedabad: Child Protection Unit bans kids on stage
Ahmedabad's Child Protection Unit issues notice to Coldplay, banning children on stage and requiring ear protection for young concertgoers.
In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, “American Idol” auditions in Houston and San Antonio have been cancelled.
The rebooted singing competition, hosted by Ryan Seacrest, was scheduled to hold auditions in Houston on September 2 and in San Antonio two days later, but stopped these after the Category 4 storm wreaked havoc, causing catastrophic flooding and destruction over the weekend.

The notice suggests alternative methods of auditioning, including sending in a video via the show’s website or attending either of the Louisiana audition dates.
Hurricane Harvey had previously caused the band Coldplay and singer Mary J. Blige to postpone their concerts in Houston. Country music group Lady Antebellum cancelled their Houston show altogether.
