It is fucking obvious that they gonna be back in New York!!

 

ya think!

I always thought it was kind of weird that the free gig before the tour proper was going to be the only time they played in NYC this year.

i promise not to go on an anger rampage if the info turns out to be false! ;D

 

but that would be SOOOOO COOL! can you imagine "Fix You" with 70,000 people singing along? HOLY CRAP!

 

and if not, there's always NJ, which i'm still on the lookout for...*crosses fingers*

 

was thinking that same thing. After hearing the massive sing along at the Boston Garden, I can't imagine that at the stadium level.

 

Was also thinking, Damn, it could be a mite chilly being there the end of October, brrrrrrrrrrrrr.

If it got too cold we could all use the VIVA LA VIDA album backdrop as a giant blanket! lol :laugh3:

I've been to stadium gigs as late as the end of November (and I'm in the Midwest, so November is decidedly a winter month), so it's not unheard of.

 

Still it is a bid odd that they would choose a cold area of the country to put on an outdoor gig, given that there are many warmer places their not playing at all this year...

I double (triple, quadruple) checked on this this weekend, to make sure this was in fact "legit" -

All I can say is that the season ticket holders were made aware of it, it is indeed legit, but as someone else said earlier in this thread, sometimes stadiums announce these evens to the season ticket holders, and then they don't come to fruition....

 

If I can get a copy of the letter or the gist of what it said, I'll let you guys know.

 

I'm still crossing my fingers that its going to happen, especially since its the day after my bday!

Maybe they're doing it for QB Tom Brady?

 

(joking people, joking, although he is a huge CP fan)

..............HOLY SHIT. IF THIS IS TRUE I'M GUNNA FUCKING DIE. i've been gone camping since thursday and to come back to this rumor is sooooo exciting. literally the entire weekend i was talking with my friends NONSTOP about the boston show and other coldplay related things. holy shit i hope this is true!!!

why is there no more talk about this?? if this happens it will be HUGE!! does anyone know how to get anymore info on this?? maybe i'll call gillette tomorrow....

The info said that the season ticket holders have until the 15th (I believe) to put in for tickets, and then if its happening, I would *assume* it would be announced after that???? Who knows. I'll try and get more info on it today....somehow.

Well, it was announced, but it is announced for the Garden again:

 

 

 

 

Four more US shows added - 11.8.08

 

We're pleased to be able to that Coldplay have confirmed four more US shows. They are as follows:

 

Wed Oct 29 - Boston, MA - TD Banknorth Gardens (on sale Fri August 15 at 10am here)

 

Fri Oct 31 - Washington DC - Verizon Center (on sale Fri August 15 at 10am here)

 

Sat Nov 1 - Philadelphia, PA - Wachovia Center (on sale Mon August 18 at 10am here)

 

Wed Nov 5 - Altanta, GA - Phillips Arena (on sale Sat August 16 at noon here)

what????? i was excited for the stadium but then again i don't really want to freeze my ass off. um this is interesting. should i fly up to boston again or stay home? :shocked2:

I know - I am shocked they are coming back so soon.

 

Sorry for the mistake on the venue. The person I am getting tix from is a season passholder at both stadiums, and with all the excitment, the venue got messed up!

 

At least I got the date right. LOL

Makes more sense as an indoor show anyway...

 

I think the added dates have a lot to do with the fact that the whole resheduling fiasco meant that many markets that probably would have had 2nd shows added had to make do with one.
