Coldplay has a nostalgic moment

COLDPLAY have revealed the tempting full catalogue for their upcoming End Of Decade auction.

The band are selling off instruments, clothes, artwork and memorabilia to raise money for charidee, mate.

The strangest bit of gear I spotted for sale is their muddy Wellington boots from their second Glastonbury appearance in 2000.

I'm amazed they ever kept them at all, but they were stored after the show.

CHRIS MARTIN and Co warn any bidders this will be the smelliest lot.

But I noticed they are also selling guitarist JONNY BUCKLAND's cap which he wore every night on the Viva La Vida tour. That's got to be kicking up a bit.

They are also flogging their stage jackets, which cannot be fresh.

All cash raised from the auction - running from today until December 31 - is going to the band's favorite charity Kids Company.

I’m not going to lie, there’s plenty of awesome things they are selling.

I also took the liberty to find the catalogue and some information about the Kid’s Company.

About Kids Company

The entire proceeds of Coldplay's End of Decade Clearout Sale will go

directly to Kids Company.

Kids Company was founded in 1996. The charity's aim is to provide

practical, emotional and educational support to vulnerable inner-city

children and young people in London.

Many of the 14,000 children reached by Kids Company’s services have

experienced severe and multiple trauma. Often these are "lone

children" living in chronic deprivation, with little or no support and

face the daily anxieties of caring for their family as the role of

parent and child is reversed.

The charity gives them hope by providing a safe, caring, nurturing

environment where support is tailored to the needs of each individual.

Their aim is to empower children, who have experienced enormous

challenges, to lead positive lives. They offer unrelenting love for

every child, whatever it takes.

Kids Company's staff are constantly inspired by the courage and

dignity expressed by vulnerable children in the face of overwhelming

challenges, and in everything they do, the child is put first.

In 2007 Kids Company was awarded the Liberty and JUSTICE Human Rights Award.
