shivanair Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 We should meet up on the day of the show =0) and then exchange pics afterwards. Think i'd be able to sneak in something to record the show with? Thinking of getting a MD player/recorder just for this sole purpose...don't know if they still make those these days...but I bet the puny mic won't capture much besides the screaming fans haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivanair Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I am also on the floor in section 3 row 38. But there are two sections of 3 according to the floor map, I really hope I'm in the first one! If not, oh well. The floor is bomb as hell. Believe row 38 will be in the second section...but view is still gonna be awesome. I think the only sucky seats in the tank are on the upper level on the side of the stage..speakers block most of the view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should pick a spot to meet/grab a bite/whatever. For everyone thats coming from outside of the bay area...do you have accommodation booked? have rides to the venue? Need any help/suggestions or anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guster Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 how does the spaghetti factory sound? i usually go there before shows at the tank, its in walking distance, and we can all park at the comerica building for 7 bucks as opposed the the arena which is 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivanair Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I'm good with Spaghetti factory, but we should prolly make a list of 3 or 4 places to eat/meet and let ppl vote. oh and I normally park on san pedro and st john...used to be free but now (judging from the last few sharks games and the kanye west concert) they charge $2 to park there. Its a few more blocks to walk though...but when you come out of the comerica building do you hit traffic driving towards the arena on santa clara?

guster Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Usually you get redirected around on almaden around the caltrain parking and to the right of dirdon it takes a few minutes, but once you get on santa clara its a breeze i live off of benton, so it's just a 5 minute drive down the alameda for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawberryfields Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Opening? Does anyone know who'll be opening for COldplay in San Jose on 7/18? I might get there about 30 minutes late, so I want to make sure it'll be okay to miss them. :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cachurch Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 My wife and I are flying down from Portland. I was pretty upset that the entire northwest got the shaft during this leg of the tour, despite the sell-out love they had in Seattle and Portland for X&Y. It was even more difficult when it was slimmed down to one show in Northern California. Finding decent tickets wasn't easy. Oh well, could be worse. (First post here, by the way. Yay.)

guster Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 i'm really hoping that having 2 openers wont lessen the length of coldplays set i dont think there's a curfew for hp though, i saw matchbox 20 there a few months ago and they had two openers and still played a super long setlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrose Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 tickets? I JUST found out that I will be able to make it...a little late but I figure I would try where the real fans are. Craigslist is turning out to be a joke. I just want to see em one more time... arg. If anyone has a spare single, or pair, let me know. Looking to be low-ish and stage right-ish. Thanks - michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
