New England Patriots [team stats] QB/QT Tom Brady [stats] took a pass on practice yesterday probably to rest up from the rockin’ Coldplay show he took in with glamazon galpal Gisele Bundchen at the TD Banknorth Garden!

Tom, who is reportedly a HUGE fan of Chris Martin & Co., blew out of a late practice at Gillette Stadium Monday night to join Gi and her GFs at the Garden shortly after the British rockers took the stage at 10 p.m.

In fact, Martin dedicated the last song, “Death and All His Friends,” a cut off the new CD, to Brady. Perhaps Chris’ good buddy, Bono of U2, told him a shout-out to No. 12 always brings down the Boston house!

“I don’t want to do this really because it’s cheesy . . . but we’re great fans of his and he’s probably left the building anyway,” said the Coldplay frontman. “We’d like to dedicate this to Tom Brady – your quarterback. We’re big fans of his and very honored he came to the show, and I hope to goodness it was worth it.”

And then Martin flubbed the lyrics to the tune. But no biggie. Brady wasn’t on the floor at the end of the show anyway!

According to a music blog called meanspeed.com, the Pats QB has an iTunes playlist that starts off with Coldplay’s mega-hit “Speed of Sound,” and he’s been a “fan of the band for years now.”

Brady told the meanspeed blogger that he can be caught “patiently waiting for every album. Each has been better than the last.”

Also making the scene at Coldplay’s Garden party were Mrs. Martin, Gwyneth Paltrow, and her actress mom, Blythe Danner. They settled into seats in the third row of the Loge 13 with director Steven Spielberg and wife, Kate Capshaw; funnyman Jerry Seinfeld and wife, Jessica; and “21” star, Cohasset homegal Kate Bosworth, who played pingpong backstage before the show.

BTW, we don’t have any snaps of the celebs since LiveNation forbade the photogs covering the concert from shooting the stars. Apparently, they aren’t used to having cameras in their faces all the time.

Anyway, our spies in the primo seats said Gwynnie was “gazing lovingly at her hubby” and “singing along with him” while Gisele never stood up during the show. Ditto for Jerry.

“He didn’t move all night,” said Casey, a fan from Lynnfield who sat behind the comedian. “Might have been a statue, actually.”

Perhaps Jer was peeved when Martin poked fun at the crowd, congratulating them for coming out on a Monday night when they could be home watching “Home Improvement” or “Seinfeld” re-runs!

Not that there’s anything wrong with that . . .

Also mixing it up backstage was Toro chef/owner Ken Oringer and wife, Celine, who talked Spanish food with Gwyneth. No, she wasn’t hungry for some of Kenny’s authentic tapas. She and Chef talked about her soon-to-debut cooking road show with Mario Batali called “Spain . . .On the Road Again.” It’s supposed to debut this fall on PBS.

After the show, Coldplay was quickly escorted out of the arena, so there wasn’t a mob scene. Chris and the boys open the Asian/European leg of their tour in Osaka on Saturday.

Viva La Vida en Boston!
