Coldplay Release - Copyright Grabber

Has anyone covered Coldplay and had to reject them due to their release? Though I don't keep up with this sort of thing, I don't recall hearing Coldplay come up as being another one with a awful form to sign

My agency & I decided not to cover the show next week - it is being handled by Headlong Tours LLP....anyhoo Walter I know you're always keen to see this sort of thing, below is a copy
