I was at the concert in Charlotte yesterday (3rd) and it was absolutely fantastic! I wanted to ask, when Chris messed up during Us Against the World, what happened? I wasn't close enough to see and didn't hear anything go wrong. Again, such a great show and I can't wait to see you all again. :) The Oracle replies: You can wat

Hello dear Oracle, I have seen interviews of Chris and Jonny, Will and Guy, etc... but never seen Will and Jonny together in any interview. Why is that? Also, is that true that one was the marriage best man of the other? Thanks! The Oracle replies: The usual set up is Chris / Jonny & Will / Guy but for no sinister reason. It's just the dynamics

Because the guy who is playing the piano doesn't look like Chris. Thanks! P.S. Hope you come to Mexico soon! The Oracle replies: I've never seen that video before and while 7,634,258 is an impressive number of views, it's nothing to do with us. Not only is the guy not Chris but there wasn't an official video for What

Dear Oracle, Like yourself, I love the song What If from X&Y. I don't think they ever played this song live. Do you know why? I will go to to concert in Zurich this Saturday and obviously hope that you can influence the guys to put this on their playlist :-) Best regards from a Dutch guy in Switzerland. The Oracle replies: It was played during t

I bought my tickets for Emirates concert in November taking a day off work to be on line at 9.00am to get best tickets. We have seen Coldplay many times and are massive fans. I wanted to take my teenage kids this time and were given ticket at the very back! Today - 17th May - better tickets are on sale! Have these good seats been held ba

Hi Oracle, Do the band always do sound checks before each show? And do they ever let members of the public in to watch (with a bought ticket obviously!) In the words of Coldplay "I'll see you soon!" (quite literally, in 21 days :D) The Oracle replies: The band don't always attend sounchecks; sometimes the crew step in and test the levels. There h

Are there any songs the guys have wrote about themselves as a band or are there any songs about anyone in the band beside Chris? The Oracle replies: I think many of us know that Green Eyes was partly written about Jonny (awwww) and although songs have been written for and inspired by people close, I think that's the only one. I do recall that H

Dear Oracle, I read a quote from AROBTTH Wikipedia page lately, which says that "For the album's singles, Martin asked Sundsbo what he could do; the latter suggested scanning the head of each member of the band". Then I check out the pictures of the single covers (In My Place, GPASUYF, The Scientist, and Clocks), but I couldn't tell which faces of ba

Hello Oracle, I was wondering, with the band travelling across the globe so often to so many places, has there ever been a bad flight experience? emergency landings, horrendous turbulance) thanks :) The Oracle replies: Yes, inevitably there have been many patches of turbulence over the years but a couple of really bad moments do sprint to my m

Could you tell me what performance its from when Chris walks on the crowd inside a bubble? The Oracle replies: Er, he's never done that... Someone must be either a) confusing Chris with someone else or b) telling you porky pies.   March 6, 2012 - submitted by Katherine Board, United Kingdom Q. I met Coldplay in 2005 at a preview of X&

Any chance of the band ever playing songs like Bigger Stronger, We Never Change, High Speed and other classics again? The Oracle replies: There's always a chance but I'd say very slim chance. Out of those 3 I would say that We Never Change would be most likely if at all because it would fit well into the acoustic section of their show. I was

Hi, I have asked this question repeatedly before, unfortunately without response. Following the availability of the new Charlie Brown video, can you please explain to your German fans, and me as an ex-pat living in Germany, why licencing prevents us from watching the video over here? How do we get to see this then? Emigrate to Easter Island, where

Dear Oracle, Is there any chance that you or anybody else over there could release Coldplay's first gig? I think it's a great idea and I know you have the first gig somewhere because I saw Coldplay talking about it over the timeline. PPLLLEEAASSE?
