Q. Is it true Coldplay are going to do a duet with Kylie Minogue???

 

The Oracle replies:

 

This song has already been recorded months ago. It hasn't been played out anywhere yet nor has it been announced officially where you're going to get to hear it. Sit tight and all will be revealed... eventually.

 

already knew this...

 

Funnily enough, it was my best friend's birthday last week and I gave her a copy of the album. Her name is Karina as well.....!

Coincidence or consiparacy?

Q. Hello Mr. Oracle, hope you're having a good time. Recently we heard that the band finally played Cemeteries Of London (and we're really happy about that). What was the thing that made them finally play it?, did they checked any fansite with song requests?. At coldplaying.com there was a lot of people asking for the song and I must say that we're all really excited now (we even started a petition, just in case).

 

 

The Oracle replies:

 

No, the band draw up a potential set list and have a list of reserves to drop in throughout the tour. They like to change a few of the songs. They rarely play anything that they haven't prepared the lights & visuals for in advance unless it's for an impromptu acoustic version.

Q. I've always thought that a collaboration between Trent Reznor and Coldplay would make for some really amazing music...any chance of that happening?

 

 

The Oracle replies:

 

Never say never but as you can imagine there are so many artists that Coldplay love and they can't possibly collaborate with them all, nor would they necessarily want to. Many collaborations are a result of a chance meeting or a happy accident rather than being planned in advance.

FYI: In 2005 both Coldplay & Nine Inch Nails headlined Coachella Festival. Coldplay played on the first night where Chris began singing Hurt in honour of the NIN appearance the following night.

Q. I'm really very sad and disappointed because I can't see the videos of the Coldplay's gig in the BBC Radio, it says that the service isn't available in my area. Don't you think that it's a little unfair for the fans that live in other countries?? Why do they have to restrict the service to certain areas?? We all deserve as fans to see the Coldplay's videos. Please help me to understand!!

 

 

The Oracle replies:

 

I know it doesn't seem fair but that's a BBC legal rule not the band's. It's equally frustrating when for example MTV in the U.S don't allow UK residents to watch their videos so it works both ways.

I think the Oracle is full of crap. In July when WE ASKED JONNY for them to play COL, it was clear from his reaction that they didn't intend to play it anytime soon. He said they hadn't practiced it. When Angie mentioned playing it around Halloween he indicated that was a little more likely...

Q. why the orecle has not answer my two questions about when Coldplay is going to come to el salvador?

 

The Oracle replies:

 

The most asked question is "when are Coldplay coming to my home country?? Anchorman announces tour dates in due course so it's fruitless asking here. I thought it would help save a lot of finger tapping on keyboards the world over if I got back to you on this popular Q.

Q. Dear oracle, here?s the question: who was the winner of the competition for the signed and dedicated album? please, I want to know if I have to stop waiting for the postman every single day.

 

The Oracle replies:

 

The winner has been notified and the prize sent out. The lucky recipient resides in Croatia so it's safe to take your eye of the letterbox.

Q. I've noticed that the band members wear ear pieces during the shows. What gets played in these ear pieces? What are their purpose?

 

The Oracle replies:

 

They're in-ear monitors and are pretty standard stage gear these days. They allow each band member to have a bespoke mix of what's going on in terms of music, instrumentation and vocal. They don't necessarily replace on stage monitors.

Q. Not a question, just something funny. I was watching a replay (actual fight 07/26/08) of the Cotto/Margarito fight last night (08/03/08)and during the 2nd or 3rd round a tissue butterfly came floating down from the rafters right between the fighters. It was funny...a week later and Coldplay still lingers at MGM Grand. Way to go! Y'all are super!!!

 

The Oracle replies:

 

Thanks for that Anita, that was great to read so I don't mind that it wasn't a question!
