Michael J. Fox Joins Coldplay at Glastonbury Festival, Plays ‘Fix You’


Michael J. Fox


Takes Glastonbury Stage w/ Coldplay …


‘Fix You/Johnny B. Goode’

Michael J. Fox can still shred on the guitar … taking the stage alongside Chris Martin and Coldplay — and playing a mashup “Back to the Future” fans know so well.

The actor took the stage at the Glastonbury Music Festival in England Saturday night during the band’s headlining set … and, ya gotta watch the video ’cause it’s a tear-jerking tribute to the film and TV legend.



The vid kicks off with Chris and the crew jumping into their hit song “Fix You” — Michael’s already onstage, sitting in a wheelchair and holding a guitar on his lap.

After a couple minutes, CM heads over to MJF and sings part of the song from his knees so the two are at the same eye level … you can see Michael’s hands moving as he fingers and strums the instrument.

It’s during an interlude in the band’s hit song where Martin really highlights Fox though … singing out the lyrics to Chuck Berry‘s “Johnny B. Goode” — the song sci-fi fans know Fox’s Marty McFly played during the climax of ‘BTTF.’

Michael really comes alive at this part … rocking out from his chair and even throwing a kick out just like he did way back in the 1985 film.



The real kicker … Martin credits “Back to the Future” for encouraging Coldplay to start their band — at which point the crowd breaks into raucous applause.

As you know … Fox was diagnosed with Parkinson’s way back in the early ’90s — and, he’s mainly turned away from acting and toward activism in recent years as the disease has progressed. He gave fans an inside look at his life in his Emmy Award-winning 2023 documentary ‘Still.’

That said, he’s still made time to play with Coldplay over the years … and, he’s clearly still got some music skills in his repertoire.

Certainly, a music moment that took the crowd back in time, Doc.
