Coldplay to Spelunk in Cango Caves?
· BootsnAll
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.
