February 9, 200917 yr Hi I haven't posted on here before but I really wanted to as I am another one of the lucky few that managed to get a ticket. I actually got 2 of the 200 they sold on the pre-sale. I just had a couple of questions for the other people that are going as although I live in London and have been to Shepherd's Bush Empire loads of times before, I just wanted to check a few things as this is such a one off opportunity! 1. What time are you all planning on getting there? Do you think we need to queue from really early in the day? 2. I know the tickets say standing, but I wondered if we would have the option of going upstairs once we get inside, normally this is fine at gigs there? 3. Has anyone downloaded their ticket yet from the link? I know it says 7 days and I wasn't going to do it before Wednesday but I also didn't want to cock it up for any reason. The tickets are so precious and I am SO excited! Thanks so much
February 10, 200917 yr Hi does anyone know what time the show starts and the venue opens? Thanks Don't know what time the show starts, but the venue opens at 9pm
February 10, 200917 yr I'm a bit concerned about this 'venue opening at 9'. This is a week day and curfews are usually about half past 10/ 11 o'clock. I hope that we are going to get our moneys worth for this gig :worried:
February 10, 200917 yr oh really? No exceptions? Does someone know what time the Brits end? I hope we won't be disappointed!

February 10, 200917 yr COLDPLAY AND THE KILLERS BREAK RECORDS FOR WAR CHILD GIG Over 200,000 fans try to get tickets for War Child concert Over 200,000 people tried to get tickets for Coldplay and The Killers’ joint-headlining show in aid of War Child – breaking all traffic records to the charity’s website. The ballot winners for the 2,000 capacity show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire on February 18 were drawn yesterday (February 9). “The response has been phenomenal,” says War Child’s Music Director Ben Knowles. “It will be a great thrill to be able to welcome the two biggest bands of the 21st Century to the same stage.” “Coldplay were one of the bands that gave us hope when we were just four boys in a garage,” a statement from The Killers said. “To share the stage with them for the War Child cause is an honour.” http://www.uncut.co.uk/news/coldplay/news/12763
February 10, 200917 yr Wow that's amazing! Unfortunately I wasn't one of the lucky few who got a ticket but congrats to everyone who did!! :D
February 10, 200917 yr Congrats!!! Oh, I thought it was General Admission for everyone... This could be the view: *click* I did a quick Google search, there are more on flickr and so on... The venue's great and really tiny, this could be the best gig since Brixton. The view from the seating area is great :) I tried but obviously failed with the ballot :( I may not be able to make it anyway, and it's too soon to say about next week, but if I can I will try to get up there even without a ticket in the hope of getting one, and to say hello to a few people from here :kiss: That said, if anyone has a spare ticket please do get in touch. I will buy it and if I cannot make it myself I will pass it on to someone on here. (For people who don't recognise my lack-of-elephant-avi or username I was previously 'kimchi' but had to change it). Many thanks and have a great gig everyone!! :)
February 10, 200917 yr we'll be doing Twitter updates from inside the venue for those who couldn't make it or get tickets :) http://twitter.com/coldplayingHQ
February 10, 200917 yr 200,000 people in the ballot :shocked2: Probably 20,000 true punters and 1800 touts applying from 1000 email addresses each :embarassed:
February 10, 200917 yr Don't what time the show starts, but the venue opens at 9pm Many thanks, better re think which train to get home!
February 10, 200917 yr I'll be in London with Lori and Kelly this time next week. Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Can't wait.
