welcome to the board :)

 

I've never tried it so not too sure, but think you might be pushing it. capacity is 50,000, so tram stop will be very busy. when the football's on, the trams are packed to the rafters and they have crowd control on the station. the roads will be busy too for getting a bus/taxi.

 

the show is due to finish at 10:30pm. is your train from Victoria? and do you know if it goes through Oxford Road or Deansgate stations? or even either of the salford stations?

 

 

thanks for the reply.

 

just checked and its manchester oxford road.

 

however there is a coach at 11.55 so that might be the better option.

Any word on a front/Gold circle yet?

Hi! :D

 

Just back from the Manchester meetup, here is us all having a jolly time in the restaurant. Jizo Chris, what a star, not only did he shell out £££ on 2 bottles of champers, he bought us all presents! :dance:

 

L-R: Mich, Alison, Jen, Lori, Min, Pete, Chris, Ian, Mel

 

@Vivacrew and @ColdplayingHQ will be tweeting live from the venue from the wee hours of the morning, by which time I am reliably informed that Rock Steady Security will have succumbed to the Coldplayers' incessant questioning about queues, opening times, barrier entries etc. At which point me Chris and Pete will be safely in the pub until it is time to return.

 

until then, zzzzzzzzzzzz..... :snore:

 

P.S Drove back via the venue at LCCC, and its all switched on!!

didn't look like it when we peeked in last night. they're queuing at the wrong side to tell this morning. the entrance they're at is almost behind the stage, on Guy's side.

Hiiiiiiiiii Lars! :dance:

 

I second everything you said!

lots of fun everyone!

I'm no longer going to this, I'm absolutely heartbroken.

 

But I'd like to wish everyone attending a fantastic evening and a safe journey both there and back.

 

Enjoy it guys, I'm there in spirit :) and despite me missing out one something that I've wanted to see for 10 years (I know they'll play other gigs and I WILL be there!) I want to hear just how awesome it was from every single one of you!

This has got to be the coolest thing I have seen on here, the live podcasts were a nice surprise to wake up to over here in the U.S. The pics of their get togethers were wonderful. Thanks for sharing all this with us.

waiting in the queue at entrance 3. Can see the stage from the gates. I thought the coldplaying crew were going to be waiting at this one?

Time to get the train. Yay! Hope everyone has a great time :D

nooooo 'fraid not. they cased it out this morning & decided on entrance 4. I did post it earlier in the hope peeps would catch the info before they left :(

 

 

Morning boys & girls.

 

I would like to announce that Coldplaying has the hardest fans!!! :lol:

Just dropped Ian off to join min, Mich & Mel. They are the first people at the venue other than security & other people being paid to be there.

 

Anyone who's heading down to LCCC, they're at entrance 4 on Great Stone Road (opposite side of the stadium to the tram stop). After checking it out this morning, and talking to security, they decided it was the most promising entrance, not least because it appears to be nearest to the stage trucks.

Weather down is here is brilliant as well, lets hope it will stay like this for another week!!
