February 14, 200917 yr Because they've been known to add better seats later on. That's what happened to me yesterday. I started out in the 200's and got closer to the middle as the day went on. Hmmm.....interesting.... I can't out of the 200's sadly.... Damn....
February 15, 200917 yr wow... this is INSANE!! ..... but i guess im kinda glad that i got my ticket at the pre-sale... oh well..... section 205 it is! :/
February 15, 200917 yr I got my tickets yesterday in the presale-they were $97 each. I got in the 200 section, which isn't like spectacular but hey at least I'll be there! Better than the lawn lol
February 16, 200917 yr ^ That's what I'm saying... I'm thinking let it die down a bit and see if seats become available b/c it ridiculous crap that all they have or are offering are lawn seats :(
February 16, 200917 yr where are you trying to get your tickets? Livenation only has lawns tickets...
February 16, 200917 yr These tickets are incredible expensive.. I guess I'll have to settle for lawn?:/
February 17, 200917 yr Well I got my tickets. I bought them off ebay because all livenation had was lawn. But I'm really happy with them! Sec 204 row gg :)
February 18, 200917 yr This is awful you guys! I just read some of the posts on here because someone on the Houston thread said to check out what happened in Dallas, and I cannot believe this. I mean, I knew that there was going to be a lot of this scalping business going on, but I didn't know Ticketmaster was actually behind all of it. Jackasses. Makes me wonder...who the hell pays $600 for one ticket? I mean, if I had the money, I can't honestly say I WOULDN'T even though it's outrageous...but come on! Are there that many filthy rich Coldplay fans? This whole business disgusts me. And prompted me to google "coldplay concert tickets houston" and come up with like 10000 websites selling the good seats already. I'm so freaking disappointed. What the hell??!!
February 20, 200917 yr so what i find odd is that on ticketmaster on the coldplay page they have a link that says bid on premium seats...its been that way since last week.
February 24, 200917 yr So a random question for those who have been there. I'm in the process of trying to get tickets and I might have found a taker on selling. How many seats are there in the rows? is 22-26 in the middle or towards the right/left? any and all help would be appreciated! thanks!
February 24, 200917 yr the venue maps I've seen don't really tell you where the seat numbers start and/or end...so I don't know if that'd be in the middle of a LONG row or near the end.

I sat in 203, seat 36 for Radiohead and this is where my seat was, so numbers in each section go from 1-higher from right to left in this photo.
February 24, 200917 yr Good seats? I live in Oklahoma and have not been to the Superpages center. I have section 203 eee seats 13 & 14. I have been trying to figure out if I am going to be able to see anything or not. Some things have said that if you are short you won't be able to see. I have tried to find views on youtube, but I just can't figure it out. If these are not good seats and Chris is going to look like an ant then I want to buy different tickets. I have found some section 100 tickets for like $175, but the caption says it may be a partially obstructed view. I just don't know!
February 25, 200917 yr Well...I'm not surprised at all that this happened. I had a very strong feeling this would happen. I already went through this with the George Michael tour. His pre-sale pretty much went the same way for the cheaper tickets. Otherwise if you wanted to sit up close, you had to choose a package. Anyway, I'm a huge U2 fan and for their last two tours they have mostly avoided these problems. How? GA on the floor is the answer. And too GA's were only $50. But there were still a few problems with pre-sale codes. Ticketbastard sets aside a block of tickets for the pre-sale and not the whole arena/venue. So for U2's last tour, you might have gotten GA during pre-sale, if not, there was a chance during the general sale to get a GA too. As far as this show is concerned, it looks like I lucked out. I'm in section 202 row DD, right behind the VIP section. I got them through Live Nation at around 11am. After getting that ticket I tried for better locations, but got nothing. I went over to Ticketbastard and couldn't get any better there. I wasn't surprised either that I wasn't getting any 100 section seats. After visiting a scalping site, I found a ton of 100 sections at vastly different amounts, but nothing cheaper than $250 and it went up fast from there. Now I did notice that the closest row I saw they had available was around row J. I assume the band has reserved the first 5-10 rows to pass out to people in the back like they did during the arena tour. So remember, that's Coldplay's way of getting back at Ticketbastard/Live Nation, and no front row auctions. If the band hasn't already reserved those front rows, well there just simply won't be any true fans up front.
March 19, 200917 yr I have a pair of tickets in Section 200, Row EE that I am selling for face value. PM me if interested.
March 25, 200917 yr I have sec 204, seats 2 and 3, row mm. Does anyone know if these are decent seats? Anyone ever sat there? And it looks to me as if they're right in front of the lawn, am I correct? I'm traveling from San Antonio so I hope those seats are worth it...
March 26, 200917 yr ^Pretty much anything in the reserved section is a lot better than lawn. You should be fine. Comparing this place to an arena, the stage is a lot closer. The only bad thing about it is, it's outside...in the 100 degree heat. So pray for wind!!!
March 30, 200917 yr Texas, summer, amphitheater concert... pray we have a cold front or brace yourself!!!!!
