Coldplay to Spelunk in Cango Caves?

For his fans, Chris Martin’s voice is haunting enough as it is. Imagine it bouncing spookily around the surreal walls of the Cango Caves - which is what MTV is proposing, according to local reports.

This hasn’t impressed the conservationists of the Klein Karoo very much, however, who feel that a few hours of unplugged Coldplay (plus a viewership in the tens of millions) is not worth spoiling a carefully-laid track record of pro-cave-preservation decisions in recent years.

Nevertheless, the powers that be in Oudtshoorn (such as there be powers that be there) are considering giving the idea the nod.

Head to the Cango Caves

That sentence cracked me up… “such as there be powers that be there” - sounds like a Seussian tongue-twister. Well done, Ben!! :)

This is total disgrace. I am a South Afican and it is not cool that people with money are able to do what ever they want. This message is a call to arms, I would like more people to get involved in protesting this idea.Why should the environment always come second after human endeavours.
