It's not often we get insights into Martin and Johnson's relationship, but on a March 19 episode of the "Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend" podcast, Martin shared how his girlfiend has helped improve Coldplay's shows.
Speaking of new technology for the hearing imparied, he said: "They are called SubPacs. Dakota, my partner, gave me one as a gift because she saw someone online experiencing whatever they are experiencing with this, it's kind of like body armour, you put it on and plug it in and it connects to the base." He added that Johnson had seen them online and urged him to give them a go. "So, we started using it and it's been so amazing and it should get better and better. We have ten or twenty now, every night, of those packs and so if you're hearing impaired we have an area where you sign up and you put on the pack and you can feel the show."
