backstreetchix97 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 ohmahgaaahhh...GA is lovely.... :stunned: glowsticks is a DEFINITE MUST!! even those cook sparkly-light-keychain-magnet thingys :D concerts around here have been sorely lacking any cool light effects from the crowd. as for the yellow balls (lol), is it okay to sneak 'em in? some of my friends almost got kicked out for inflating beach balls at Dodger Stadium (then again it was at a baseball game...:laugh3:) Hmmm yeah, I dunno how it's gonna work. But I mean it just sounds like a pretty cool idea. But for us GA people....it's just gonna be kinda hard to inflate them since we'll all pretty much be elbow to elbow.

Ginga joy Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Im down for them yellow balls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(lolz) But hey, seriously, we should do that, to show others how we GA people do it!!!!!@!:smug::smug::smug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 So I know it's four-and-a-half months out, but I was at Party City today with a friend while she looked for streamers, when I saw the most badass glow sticks ever and totally bought several. They're a foot long, rainbow, and relatively thick (but not heavy). For the moment I'm saving money, but I'll probably head back some other time for glow rings and whatnot. If we all get on it, we'll have several months to practice specific movements and raves for each song. We'll be more coordinated than the band! :lol: Don't sweat over the yellow balls, guys. It honestly was a half-joke suggestion on my part, and some have said they're still present at outdoor venues. But I'm totally serious about synchronized glowstick waving. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salsero1 Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 GA tickets for the Home Depot Center!! Hello amigos! I have a question here, I read people talking about the GA area at HD center for the conncert in July and I was wondering, is this a standing only area? how early would I have to get there? I was able to buy two tickets for about $145.00 a piece. how does it work?? It's myfirst Coldplay cocert and I can't wait, but I want to make sure I got decent tickets!! Anybody got feedback? Thanks : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backstreetchix97 Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 General Admission is the pit area, standing only on a first comef irst serve basis. Some people get there as early as a few days! So it all depends on how close you want to be. Congrats on your first show, it's gonna be awesome :) Hello amigos!

backstreetchix97 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 SO, I was just wondering....I'm making dog tags for the concerts that I am going to. Which would one do you guys think would look better? Left or Right? Or maybe I'll just get both...sorry I'm not that creative :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I'm not sure if the butterfly complicates things on the right tag, but I do like the standard "COLDPLAY" font better on it. Honestly, I'll be a bit disappointed if they continue doing Speed of Sound acoustically by this point. I really liked the whole darkened room and spinning globes for the standard version. And because it gives us time to show off our excessive glowsticks. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginga joy Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 ok, so i need help. This july 18 is gonna be my first coldplay concert, and i really want to be as close to coldplay as i can. I bought GA tickets, so i know that i got to be early to get a good place. Im planning on camping out 3 days before the concert,and no, im not crazy, but Im from mexico city and im going to the USA just to watch coldplay live. Ok, the question is: If i camp out, are they gonna respect my place in line, or when the doors open , everyone is gonna run to try to steal my plece. I mean do security people in GA events keep a control on that? or do they just open the door and let everybody rush in?. Also how long before the concert can i camp out? (This is because idk USA laws, is it legal to stay there? long before the concert?) THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANKS When I called the venue, they said it is too soon to really determine how early it is we can start lining up. But I'm sure people will start days ahead...but as for whether or not they'll respect your spot in line, yes they will. It's gonna be a single file line and they'll let let's say 25 in at a time or so and of course all of you will start running towards whatever spot it is you want. So hope all this information helps you out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coldplay Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Same as Ginga Joy, July 18 will be my first Coldplay concert. Uhm...I have 2 questions, cause I haven't gone to a concert in a long time. :P 1. When I went to ticketmaster.com, it says how many adult tickets I want...is it an adults only concert? 2. Is it better to buy the tickets as soon as they are available, or before the concert. Because my sis said if we get them late, people will be desperate to sell them and bargain. But I think they will be sold out if we wait too long...I'm not sure :\ If you help me out, thanks SO much! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Last year was my first Coldplay concert, and the folks here at Coldplaying told me I would love it. How right they were. :D So I guarantee YOU will love it! 1. When I went to ticketmaster.com, it says how many adult tickets I want...is it an adults only concert? No. I'm sure "adult" is just a general ticket term. There are plenty of younger people at these. 2. Is it better to buy the tickets as soon as they are available, or before the concert. Because my sis said if we get them late, people will be desperate to sell them and bargain. But I think they will be sold out if we wait too long...I'm not sure :\ Buy ASAP. If any tickets are still available, they're probably not very good, and the potentially better ones that people sell on eBay or Yahoo or Craigslist or wherever are very expensive, and only get more and more expensive over time. After all, certain scalpers buy tickets for the sole purpose of selling them on auction for triple the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corkus Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Oy, amidst all the new tour dates mentioned, we can't let this one get lost in the shuffle! EXACTLY FOUR MONTHS!!! Convenience reasons make this the only So. Cal concert I'll be able to attend, so I wanna make this a damn good one. Heck, I'm not opposed to waiting for the band afterwards, either, but I'm not sure how hard that would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
