Good evening! Hope you're all fine! I'm still in post-gig-depression and addicted to Map of the Problematique and that Drum & Bass Jam. I hate my friend for suggesting the HBO series "In Treatment" to me. :heart: Now I have another series to watch!! Only saw the first three sessions with "Laura" until now but I'll change that. Have you heard of it?

I've had 3 nosebleeds in the past 24 hours
I'Ve had countless nosebleeds in my life! It was awful when I was little, it just wouldn't stop... The reason for mine today is the hay fever, but before it was that the skin around my veins in the nose was too thin. Bepanthen / Panthenol nose lotion made it go away!! It made the skin get thicker or whatever. Don't worry too much. :hug:

Ask the Oracle on Coldplay.com (Now in session!)
June 16, 2010 - submitted by Joe, United States of America Q. Hello Oracle, I was browsing around and came across something. It says that Coldplay will call it quits at the age of 33. Is this true? I really hope not because I love this band and it would be a real upset for me and many others if they were to call it quits. Thank you The Oracle replies: Given that Chris is already 33 and they're in the studio recording that's just another comment Chris made that has been taken more literally than he ever intended.

June 16, 2010 - submitted by Tine, United Kingdom Q. Dear Oracle. I just ordered Roadie: My Life On The Road With Coldplay and I'm looking really forward to get it. First of all, do you know how long it will take before I get it? (I live in Denmark) And second, how many pages is the book? I couldn't find it anywere? Thanks for answering our questions. Love The Oracle replies: I'm not going to attempt to interfere with the workings of the postal system as quite frankly I'm quite mistrusting of delivery times. There are 242 pages including the glossary and index but excluding the contents foreword, acknowledgements and introduction pages.

Small Reminders/Updates & The Coldplay Messenger (feat. Roadie #42!)
Art history #1 (Safety EP) June 10, 2010 5:38 pm The first of a new series of interviews with the designers of Coldplay's artwork Hi John. So you designed Coldplay's first two covers. I did, yeah. The Safety one and the Brothers & Sisters one. How did you meet them? I was friends with Jonny from school. In fact, I was in a band with him in sixth form. When he moved to London for university, I moved to Birmingham to do an art course. They started doing their band stuff and I'd come down to visit them in halls of residence. I was doing photography at the time, so I was taking lots of photographs of them when they first started. And how did you come to design the Safety EP cover? My course was a commercial art course, so I asked if I could do a cover for one of my projects. And they were happy to do that. At the time, nobody really thought they were going anywhere, so nobody was that bothered! Where is that photograph from? It's just a photograph that I took of Chris. Just a really blurry picture. And the Safety bit actually came from the little bit of writing on the top of the camera film. I just dropped the negative down and it came out on the print. Is that where it got its title from? I think so, yeah. They were happy just to leave it there. So the name came from the picture. Where's the picture of Chris from? Probably from a gig at the Laurel Tree, in London. Is it deliberately blurred? Well, there were just loads of pictures, all in black and white. There were blurred ones and sharp ones, but that one just looked nicely weird. I suppose at the time, I was justifying it as trying to capture him moving around the stage and being all crazy. And it also it fitted in with that dark, Radiohead-y thing that everyone was into at the time. Did you create the Coldplay logo too? I can't actually remember who did that. But I might well have done. Did you have other ideas for that cover? I think there's a sketch book somewhere full of other ideas. There were even more Brothers & Sisters. I've got a whole notebook somewhere where Chris and the boys have written comments on each picture, saying things "No, I don't like this one, it's too spooky" or whatever. And then eventually we'd narrow it down to the one that they liked. Were they taking the band quite seriously by this point? Oh, definitely. At the time I did think they were going to get big, and I was telling all my mates at college about them. I remember when they did start making it, I was like "See, I told you!" It did always seem like they'd get somewhere. I'd go up with them to In The City or whatever to help put up posters and that sort of thing. It was obvious they were really good, but whether you got that lucky break or not was another thing. Happily, they did. Were they demanding about the Safety EP cover? No, they were quite easy with that one. The second one was a bit more difficult. The Safety EP itself is worth quite a lot of money now. Yeah. And guess what, I haven't got any! At the time my dad was telling me to ask for loads of them, but I thought that'd be a bit crass! But I used to take a few copies round in my portfolio when I was trying to get work as a graphic designer. They'd started to get big by then and it was a really good way of getting jobs in design places. My two are not the most amazing covers, obviously, but they did help me get some jobs! But as a consequence, I broke all the CD cases that I had and the CDs themselves got pulled out and put in different places, so I've ended up with none. It'll cost you quite a bit to buy another. Apparently so. I've heard they go for £800 on eBay. But you're not very proud of the cover? Actually, I like the Safety EP one. It's not a brilliant photograph by any means, but the reason I like it is that it's a photograph by a kid at college of some kids at college and they went on to be a really big band. So, in that way, I'm really chuffed about it. Look out for Art history #2 (Brothers & Sisters) soon...

June 15, 2010 - submitted by Mo, United States of America Q. Dear Oracle, I was reading an article that Chris recently attended The Strokes secret show. My question is a. How did he know about it? b. Are Coldplay big fans of The Strokes. It would make my day knowing that two of my favorite bands liked each other. The Oracle replies: A secret gig is never totally a secret or else no-one would be there! The band were invited by [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1vvUec71v8]Fabrizio Moretti[/ame]. Yes, they're fans so consider your day made!

June 15, 2010 - submitted by Paoo, Thailand Q. Just one question. What do you do to make someone love you? Thank you... The Oracle replies: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46qctiIdMPc]You can't.[/ame] All you can try to be is true to yourself and if they don't love you for that, it's not meant to be. I don't think you should try and forcing anything out of anyone is a falsehood anyway. You'll be forever wondering if perhaps they're only with you because of the case of gold bullion you gave them...

June 15, 2010 - submitted by Marjanne, Netherlands Q. When I get married I want to use 'Till Kingdom Come' as the song that plays when my father gives me away. My boyfriend says the song is death-related. I don't think so. WHAT is the meaning of the song? Help us out! The Oracle replies: Given that wedding vows are all about "'til death do us part" I'd say it doesn't matter one iota if the song was or wasn't written about death; it sounds like a perfect song to choose. If you hear a different meaning in the lyrics it's what it means to you and so it fits.
