cafc4eva Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 you guys dont muck about do you, very quick indeed! anyway, ive asked a few times, but do you think there will be a presale for this gig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalplay Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I've got questions too : Will this site http://www.gigsandtours.com be the only way to buy tickets on Friday ? Do you know if we can print tickets from this site ? How expensive are usually tickets in England ? That's pretty much all for now, thanks !

cafc4eva Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 i would say the tickets work out about £30-40 each i dont think you will be able to print tickets in all honesty im not sure whether that is the only site, sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voodoo_geisha Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 gigsandtours are owned by seetickets.com... i was just about to say that they'll probably sell tickets too and they are! coldplay are on the homepage! :D really want to go to this gig, i've never seen coldplay before. i'm uncontrollably excited. i hope there's a pre-sale.

hmallsop Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 gigs and tours or seetickets .com as they are also known as dont provide self print tickets,and they ususally send them out last minute which is annoying especially when youhave to wait in for thepost.the sheffield tickets are £38 and its all seated.

Jenjie Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 they not saying. this is the sum total of info they have on their site: NEW! - Coldplay - on sale 30 May at 9am 14 - 15 December 08 The O2 arena | Music Currently not on sale http://www.theo2.co.uk/inside/book-now.html?ref=dothe02mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 all seated? the 02 better not be all seated! For previous concerts it's been a mix, about 50% seated in an American style basketball court and 50% standing. It has no atmosphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalplay Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Thanks about the online tickets stores guys. It seems we can print tickets from ticketmaster so i'll try few of them on friday morning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 When I have ordered from ticketmaster in the past they have always sent proper tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalplay Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Oh ok, it was written it could be possible but ''limited to select venues and events'' so I was hoping it could work this time I'll try the See ones then, and cross fingers to recieve tickets in France not too late. Thanks a lot for the help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cafc4eva Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 i wont be shelling out £40 to sit down, thats a fact Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plug_in_coldplaying Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 omg! I want to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelmdog Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 i wont be shelling out £40 to sit down, thats a fact I went to see Kanye West at this venue and was offered seated tickets, turned them down, and i regretted it. The stage set-up for that gig wasn't high enough, so you couldn't really see that much of the stage without either being lanky or by getting much closer, which didn't appeal to me as it was boiling hot down there. I will be looking for decent seated tickets methinks. Though i must stress that the stage set-up may be different for this and I'm wrong. Anyone know if they are doing the stage in the middle thing? Or the usual type stage? Anyway if its stage at one end, I'd take seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelmdog Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 but you cant get into it sitting down. a gig is always soo much better if your standing right at the front I'm not going to this gig to rock out to be honest, think it will be a better experience for me, if i have a good view. People will stand up anyway. But each to their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
