StephBerryman Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 when do they actually play? 7am? I have to go straight to work afterwards, so i won't be wearing a coldplay shirt. I'm going to stick out like a sore thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericsjones Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 im almost certain they play at 7 and then the play like 2 songs that were taped throughtout the show sporadically. the 7 am start needs to be confirmed. i swear i saw it way back when it was first announced but dont know where it is now.

ericsjones Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 its gotta be 7. then they tape it, then they pick when the play it on the show...unfortunately i wont be checking in since i didnt win...thought my story was a lock...i was wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApproximatelyInfinite Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 the today show STARTS at 7, so they won't be starting to play then, i don't think. well, they might, but i would think the noise of them playing would interfere with them doing the headline news and top stories. i'm thinking 8:30 AM start. they want us to be there by 6:30 so we'll be in place by 7 when the show starts, and we can all be screaming at the opening of the show. that's the whole point of this special pen, after all: getting the biggest freaks and screamers up front so the today show looks good :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jo_saw_sparks Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 lol yup so i think i convinced my friend to leave a couple hours earlier than she wanted to... i dont think itll be enough for front row anymore, but i'll be happy anywhere between the first and seventh =) does anyone know how large the audience area is? width-wise?

ernestime Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 For those inquiring minds ... They [Coldplay] will be REHEARSING at 7am ... So as we are walking in around 6:30 am ... There is a likelihood that you will see what goes down during a Coldplay rehearsal ... Then ... At around I'd say 8:00 they will come on stage again to do one more "Dry-Run" before the actual live recording of the performances at 8:30 am ... NBC "Today" show host's will announce the official performance at 8:30am The band will perform 1 out of 3 songs ... Then there will be a commercial break ... Then after they will perform another song ... Followed by a brief interview from Matt Laurer ... A last song for the audience and there's your show ... Have a Good Morning !!! It will feel very surreal for some fans, For others, they might begin to get alittle uneasy, standing for so long LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jo_saw_sparks Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 theyre not doing any other songs that won't be broadcast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernestime Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I highly doubt it ... I'm sorry it isn't really a "Concert" More like a promotion ... But, knowing Coldplay ... They def. put there fans first so who know's if we can start a chant up like "One more song" etc. Maybe they can deliver since they played us [most fans] at the MSG on Monday ...

jo_saw_sparks Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 yeah i knew it wasnt gonna be a long set, and i had a feeling it'd only be 2 or 3 songs... still itd be nice to maybe hear a little more. oh well. haha i was chanting along with everyone at MSG... maybe it'll work this time?
