tigermilk Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Okay guys and girls! I have some new info about the set-up at the MGM which might further explain the lack of front row seats. Floor A-Rows A-M only have 2 to 8 seats per row. Rows N-X will have about 20 seats per row. Floor B-Rows A-X will have about 20 seats per row. Floor C-Rows A-M only have 2 to 8 seats per row. Rows N-X will have about 20 seats per row. This is due to the unusual stage shape coldplay are useing for this tour. This means there are only about 275-350 seats in the first 12 rows. Looking at a detailed map-from a nice lady at the MGM. Some of the best seats off the floor, will be around sections L17-U17 Rows A-X sections L16-U16 Rows A-X sections L15-U15 Rows A-X sections L14-U14 Rows A-X If you are in L14, L15, L16, L17 Row A-you will in fact be front row also because of the way the stage is set up. You would also technically be front row if you have Floor A and C, Row N. The stadium will be 13,000 capacity exactly!!! Hope that this helps you!!!!

freddyr Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 MGM Grand Garden Arena I'm beyond excited for this show! Questions: Anyone been to this venue b4? Seems smaller than the rest of the arenas. Being from LA where we have Staples Center, The Forum (2 shows) how does this arena compare to others? Sound? Seating (thanks tigermilk).. Size? Tried to get tix for one of the 2 LA shows. But that was impossible. lol p.s. Please fill free to share your Vegas trip itinerary (especially if your coming from California)!!! As for me, got 2 tix, staying overnight, maybe go to Tao or Pure after the show... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bern Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Can anyone locate the arena on google earth?? I'm guessing it's the bulding next to the pool area, the one with the round driveway... it's strange that no one has posted pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddyr Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I first saw COLDPLAY in Chula Vista on the Twisted Logic Tour... it was beyond great... As for Vegas, the show is less than a month away now and still seems too far!! lol I myself am going from on day to the next, staying overnight on the strip somewhere. I checked the rates fo the MGM Grand Hotel. They're in the 200's a night. Not surprising for this hotel, but there are cheaper ones. Don't know where I'll be staying yet. Maybe hit up the casinos and rehab (if I work out for 5 hours every night til then), concert, then club after. I heard the show is not very long. Again, not surprising. But we'll be in Vegas. So much to do before and after. Anyone else, feel free to share your Vegas trip itinerary. Building the excitement!!! VIVA LAS VEGAS trip!!! VIVA LA VEGAS trip!

starbright31 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I've got an extra pair of Vegas tickets in section 110, row EE. If anyone's interested, please IM me! I've been trying to sell it on Craigslist and I don't want to have to go to Ebay to sell this. I'd rather sell this in a fair way to a fan and I'm willing to decrease the price a bit just to get rid of these tickets. I found a better pair a couple days later so that's why I'm selling this pair. (Forget it, tickets have been sold!) I have a room booked at the MGM Grand and I'm tempted to switch to the Imperial Palace just so I can get a cheaper rate. The MGM Grand room I got for $179 a night (go to Smartervegas.com and find hotel promotion codes there, I forgot which one I used, but it worked). I'm thinking I might get there a day early too. I'll definitely be hitting up the bars and etc. that weekend :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigermilk Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Small cameras are good! I don't recall seeing any policy about cameras on any site-usually it is mentioned on ticketmaster or live nation!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yay_me Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Just saw Coldplay last night @ the Forum and was blown away. I've seen them twice before, but this has to be BY FAR their best concert.... Chris was just SO FULL OF ENERGY. I went crazy and sitting here w/ a post concert high, I just HAD to buy a ticket to their LV show. I have a pretty good seat (L13) and will be by myself. So, for those of you who are around me.. be nice :) It' s my 1st concert experience alone :) Also, in regards to the cameras. Did anyone here go to the Irvine Verizon Wireless Amp, when they said, "NO CAMERAS", but during the show the screens prompt us to take out the cameras and take a damn picture!! That pissed me off, having to walk back to my damn car in the huge parking lot just to put it away. So, ever since then, I've hid my camera. Last night, the security guard asked if I had one, and I said, "No".. and everyone and their momma had one out last night. My camera isn't too tiny, either. It's a lumix. TRY sneeking it in.. It'll be worth it :) Anyhoo. I'm so excited for the LV show!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
