    Q. Hello Great Oracle! A few years back I came across a video of Coldplay performing Trouble on MTV2. Before they started, Chris said "This is for Kevin McCan/be" later I found out that it was Kevin McCabe and not Kevin McCane (my name. Although I showed Eeeeveryone and told them they dedicated it to me!) Then, I just watched the BRILLIANT South Bank Show the other day and saw Kevin McCabe in the credits. What does this fella do with the band? And on days he is ill, may I take his place on occasion? :) Thank you

    The Oracle replies:

    Kevin works for the band's U.K label Parlophone. His job is in radio promotions so looks after the boys in all things radio related.

    Q. I recently watched the 2005 Glastonbury Festival on TV. During In My Place, Chris lifted his pant legs and showed writing on both his knees. I couldn't quite make out what it said. Any idea?

    The Oracle replies:

    On his right knee Michael and on his left Eavis so that when stood together it showed the name of the Glastonbury organiser and proprietor.

    Q. Hi, I've only recently bothered looking at getting a concert ticket because I presumed they would be mega expensive. After learning that they're actually quiet cheap I looked into the tour dates etc... and I read the Viva tour appeared at Old Trafford today (such a legendary band in such a legendary venue?!?! - simply amazing!!), seeing Coldplay live at Old Trafford would have been beyond an absolute dream for me honestly as a Manchester Utd fan so I really need to ask if this opportunity will ever arise again? Is there a way to book tickets in advance of this because I'd forget to book one if they were free and Coldplay were playing in my home town of York... Cheers, Steve. (thumbs up :D )

    The Oracle replies:

    Well I can put you out of your misery in a little way by telling you that there are 2 Old Traffords in Manchester. The one the band played at is in fact home to Lancashire Cricket not therefore The Theatre of Dreams.
