Q. Dear Oracle, When Coldplay played at Wembley in September I noticed a globe on top of a box on the stage (sort of behind Guy). If the parachutes globes were all in storage what is this globe and what was it's purpose? Lottie

The Oracle replies:

That wasn't a globe as they were indeed all in storage. The original globe was auctioned off for Kids Company and raised a whopping £8,230.

Q. Hi Oracle! How come it was stated in the album booklet of Viva la Vida album: "Paintings by Eugene Delacroix" though what I read in Wikipedia was: the painting used in the album cover art was by Frida Kahlo?

The Oracle replies:

No, the album name was taken from a Kahlo painting but the actual cover was Liberty Leading the People, a painting by Eugene Delacroix.

Q. Hi Oracle, I was wondering if you could recommend some new bands/ artists for me to listen to? Something similar to Coldplay, The Killers, Keane, Snow Patrol. Thanks in advance!

The Oracle replies:

Ok so today's delights are: Animal Kingdom, The Drums, The XX, Jonsi, Bon Iver and finally Midlake. Some aren't as new as others but still may be new to you; they should keep you going for while or at least until the next Oracle recommends spot...
