Would appreciate some advice :)

Hi guys,

 

Me and a few mates are going to see Coldplay next Monday (the 15th) and would really appreciate some advice on people who have seen them lately.

 

Basically, our problem is getting back home from the concert Monday night. I've been looking up train times etc. We all have school the following day so staying in London isn't really an option. My question is what time will we be out of the arena? The last train we can really possibly get is 20 past midnight from London Bridge but I don't think that getting from the o2 to London Bridge is going to be easy either if it's too late..

 

Any help or advice would be appreciate,

Thanks,

Dan

You'll be fine. The show started late last night and I was well out of the arena by 11pm :)

[Dan 6N]

Thanks for that :)

So does the show last about an hour and a half?

I think it finished about 10.50 in Brum. We had to leg it to get the last train back to Rugby from New Street which was 11.00. Made it on tuesday with about a minute to spare :p

They came on about ten past nine in Liverpool and like Mimixxx said we were out of the arena by 11 - I think it finished around 10.45pm

I think we've sorted it out now.

Another question, will we be searched when we go in? Can we take bags and stuff?

[Beximus]

You can take bags - I took in my christmas shopping for the day. The good thing about seats is that you've got a bit of space to put bags down. You should be searched, but the woman who searched me didn't really try very hard.

Ok thanks.

 

One last question then I'll leave you all in peace :P

It says on the tickets doors open at 6.30, as we've already got allocated seats is it worth queing up ages before or shall we just turn up at 6.30 because it's not gonna make any difference where we're sitting is it?

 

Cheers,

Dan

Nah, you don't need to bother queueing. Most people won't queue when they've got seats, unless the weather's really manky and they want to get into the warm and dry. First support was on at 7ish, but you shouldn't have any problems getting in time if you want to.
