There are always a lot of choices to be made when it comes time to ring in the New Year. But music fans won’t have to pick between Coldplay and Jay-Z when they’re making their plans for December 31, 2012. That’s because the rapper and Chris Martin’s Brit-pop band are taking to the stage together at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, to headline a gig on the most festive holiday around.

It’s not the first time that the acts have teamed up. The hip hop star and the alt-rocker frequently hang out with their wives, Beyonce and Gwyneth Paltrow, who have become the best of friends. This summer, Jay-Z joined Coldplay for the London 2012 Paralympic Games Closing Ceremony in their native England. And in 2010, they joined together to count down the clock at The Cosmopolitan Hotel and Resort in Las Vegas.

Besides a top-notch concert, fans were treated to a star-studded crowd. The A-listers in attendance included Cameron Diaz and then-boyfriend Alex Rodriguez, Jennifer Lopez and her now ex-husband Mark Anthony and a pre-Kim Kardashian Kanye West, who also performed along with Beyonce and John Mayer. So, the star spottings alone might be worth a ticket to the show, even if either style of music isn’t your thing. What do you think? Are Jay-Z and Coldplay a good double bill to ring in 2013?

In one way it would be good to provide diversity in music, and hence culture. on the other hand, thee artists are very different and might clash. other idea is to have them play close to each other, but in separate forums. People could listen to what they want and go to the group they most enjoy or stay with just one. I'd hope that people would listen to both.. Music is a primary facet of culture and listening to music you haven't heard much of could open your mind.
