Q. How many articles of the same clothing do the guys have to use during the whole tour? Who washes the clothes and where?

The Oracle replies:

There is a vast array of clothes in the touring wardrobe. The designs are similar but each one is uniquely customized. Due to their delicacy, the clothes are taken by one of their assistants (Vicki or E.J) to be dry-cleaned after every show.

[otherwise, they'd stink, eh...? Nettie]

Q. When will Coldplay dabble in Heavy Metal music?

The Oracle replies:

The only display of the band experimenting such sounds has been during sound-checks. One early piece of toe-curling evidence shows them playing Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit. Their Live 2003 DVD shows a faster, harder version of Trouble in the behind-the-scenes documentary tour diary.
