May 28, 200818 yr Author Its all fun and games until some guy is holding a sign in front of you while your trying to enjoy you no-view $100+ ticket The last show in Philly, I don't think you attended, but there were instructions on the bottom of each sign to hold up for encore. The signs were held up waiting for the band to play the encore. The entire show was sign free until that moment which was pretty dramatic. Their photographer came out on the stage and took pictures or video of us. Before the band started their encore. Nobody complained, they were just impressed and the band sent a message back to us at the very end with one of the signs, on stage they reversed the words and held up "Coldplay Loves USA", sooo cool! Just calm down, and have a great time! :D

Thats cool though
May 28, 200818 yr Sign templates are complete. Please PM or email me for more information. Signs state that fans should hold up the signs at the encore of the performance, NOT the beginning. Thanks everyone!
May 28, 200818 yr Did you email all of us with the new disclaimer at the bottom?? I don't think I got the final final one :)
May 29, 200818 yr Jasmyne, the final Coldplay Sign Gang sign design should be sitting in your email inbox as of 10:20 PM EST. Thanks for helping out! Remember, anyone else interested in becoming a member of Philly's Coldplay Sign Gang and help distribute signs should send me a PM! Thanks!
May 29, 200818 yr I am disappointed for the posts and enthusiam not shown on the DC thread. Sounds like all the real fans on the board are hitting up the philly show. Anyone planning on hitting up the DC show too? I didn't plan on going to philly since DC is only the second show and its much closer since I live in balitmore (plus I couldnt' get anyone to spurge for tickets in philly too). I would love to see them opening up the tour in philly tho too but I wasn't able to get decent seat at general admisson time (thanks to all you ticket brokers for sucking up all the good seats in the first day :angry: ). Anyone got (1) decent ticket they wouldn't mind selling to a coldplay fan so he can see them opening up the tour? :wink3:
May 29, 200818 yr If anyone's looking to sell tickets for this show, I'll gladly buy them off you. Looking for two, if possible.
May 29, 200818 yr I need advice... I go to school in Philly, but am in DC for the summer. I would rather go to the DC show, but am going to the Philly one because I have to be up at school the weekend of the show anyway for something. Wachovia, in my opinion, is not as good as Verizon from a venue standpoint, and its right next to my building in DC so I'd rather go to Verizon. Should I stay with my lower bowl tickets for Wachovia and go opening night or go just down the road to the DC show, try and get better tickets and sell off my Philly ones/trade with some of you guys? Is opening night gonna be that sick with the signs and all that I shouldn't miss it?
May 29, 200818 yr I have two tickets to sell for Section 113, Row 22, Seats 7 & 8 if you are interested. PM me for more information.
May 29, 200818 yr Im looking for 4 tickets. Any seat is fine as long as its a fairly good veiw. PM me
May 30, 200818 yr Can someone please explain why this show isn't sold out yet. I mean, it's the first show of their first tour in three years. What's the deal? I thought it would have sold out very quickly.
May 30, 200818 yr I have 4 tix for sale. Section 112 row 7. $465 shipped or local cash exchange. Its what I paid including fees and shipping. [email protected]
May 30, 200818 yr Hey guys! I have 2 tickets for the DC show available if anyone is interested. I paid $236 for the pair. They are in section 102 row N. Let me know!
May 30, 200818 yr yo philly people. the 29th will be here before we know it...i was talkin to a fellow philly concert goer about concerts in this city..see if you agree ... ah nice, an outa towner coming to philly. i honestly think philly has the best concert fans, and def the best coldplay fans, in the country. ive seen shows from big time bands in other cities, and without bias i honestly think philly is the best. bands literally look blown away when they play here. but yes, i was part of the sign gang last time. should be a great time again this time. basically, without bias, i can say that philly has the best music fans, coldplay included, anywhere. bands alwayyyys say "you guys are the best crowd" at every show, but in philly they reallllly are blown away and go out of their way to appreciate the crowd. its something special
June 1, 200818 yr Author Philly is a great city, Declaration of Independence, Liberty Bell, Rocky, and Philly Cheesesteaks (wit or witout)... ahh, can't wait to get my mouth around one of these...whoohoo! Great city needs a great band, "el presente!"... "Alltheistic Coldplay!" (I just wanted to use that word... it's a new Chris word) :) and Bump this Philly thread! :D
June 1, 200818 yr Yo, I am still looking for just 1 ticket to the philly show. Would anyone like to buy the other ticket from ColdplayJoe with me?
June 1, 200818 yr Hey everyone! We've decided on the final two Coldplay signs for the Philly concert. Members of the Coldplay Sign Gang have already received the .pdf files in their email inbox a few days ago, but anyone interested in passing out signs and becoming a member of the Coldplay Sign Gang should send me a PM. Thanks, ColdplayJoe
June 2, 200818 yr bump :) Alright Coldplayers, who's game to hand out some flyers and welcome Coldplay back in style? PM ColdplayJoe if you are an able volunteer!
June 4, 200818 yr Seating charts, member emails, and distribution assignments will be emailed out shortly. Thanks for being patient!
June 4, 200818 yr Don't know how reliable this is but this news just in: http://phillyedge.com/node/5794 Coldplay show in Philly moved to July 25 This just in from our friends at Live Nation: The June 29 Coldplay show at Wachovia Center has been moved to July 25. .... Can someone check with Live Nation? Coldplay.com still has the original listing?
June 5, 200818 yr Author It's changed on Live Nation and I couldn't find on Ticketmaster? WTF! Why would they come from all the way across the country to do Philly? That doesn't even make any sense! What a waste of energy on that one! And as for myself will be losing money on my flights since they were nonrefundable! :(
