LOWER BOWL TICKETS FOR SALE NEXT TO STAGE

 

RESERVED SEATS FOR SALE NEXT TO STAGE FOR SALE SECTION 133 AMAZING VIEW.

 

ONLY UPPER BOWLS LEFT!!! NOT LOOKING TO CHARGE A LOT. JUST 300 FOR THE PAIR. FACE VALUE IS 240. LOOKING TO OFFSET ARGO COSTS.

Ugh. If you didn't want the tickets to begin with, why'd you buy them in the first place?! It makes me so upset that people take advantage of this situation and deprive other fans of the tickets.

Oh your so dramatic, I have my own tickets for the show for one thing. I am not taking away tickets from anyone, the tickets are going to people who do like the band. I am only doing this to gain back the money I lost to the Argo tickets. So stop complaining.

Does anyone know how CM's piano/keyboard setup on stage works? I've watched numerous youtube clips and one moment it's center stage then right stage then at times there is no piano/keyboard at all?

 

Does it move around during the show? Just wondering because I'd love to get close to where he is playing and wondering what the best position in GA I should be aiming for in order to see him wail on the keys.

 

Many thanks,

S.

Depending if I can get floor seats for Edmonton or Calgary this Friday, I may have two GA tickets to sell for this show. I was going to come out to Toronto to see them, but now they are coming to me! As long as I can get GA for either (hopefully both) Alberta show, I'll be parting with my Toronto tickets.

 

Also, I wanted to say thanks to everyone in this thread for keeping me up to date with everything that happened with the Toronto pre-sale. If it wasn't for this thread, I probably wouldn't have gotten GA tickets. :)

 

Now to go find out what's happening with the Alberta pre-sale!

It's usually different from show to show, I've seen them 3 times at ACC and each time has been different, I wont count the Kool Haus show because it was so small. But anyways, I would suggest get right in the middle of the pack but don't go to close to the stage because of how during their touring for X&Y and Viva la Vida they have chosen to move there show around the stadium. In the floor section your gonna be able to see him play no matter what but for an overall experience your most likely better off forgoing seeing his fingers dance and watching him jump around instead.

Would you consider the middle of the GA floor for someone short? Or would it better to be close to the stage? Or does it not matter? :S

How short is short, because if your under like 5'5 I would think get there early and get close would be the best choice. But your going to be able to see even if you are farther back, just make sure your not behind someone who's like 6'2. But yea, get close.

Makes sense, thank you! :)

Edit: Ahh sorry about the double post. How early should GA people go? I've been hearing 8am-9am. O_O

I almost didn't get tickets for the show, due to my current status as a poor student :( but I couldn't resist seeing Coldplay live again after I came across a couple of cheaper seats in the 500's. I haven't been to the Rogers Center since I was 8 and don't remember much about it... are the seats in the 500's going to be that bad? Section 513, row 23.

 

Well it is pretty far from the stage. The band will be miniscule! But you have the jumbotron and other panels to look at so it shouldn't be that bad. In terms of the audio up in the 500s (or in general), not quite sure as I have never seen a gig at the Dome/Rogers Centre.

Are you going alone or with someone else? I'm seeing several level 100's still available for single tickets so you can grab those if you can squeeze in another 20 dollars.

Off topic but if anyone is interested in Argos Tickets, let me know :) I have two from the presale! haha. They are on ebay too. Going for less than face value + free shipping including insurance and tracking number. Cheers!

just a thought lol

I'll be leaving around 7A.M. :D It's like a thirty minute drive. I'm really not worried about where I'm going to be in the pit, but I want to get there early, just for shits and giggles.

I live about fourty minutes away from downtown Toronto; morning it is for me! I need a good spot though in the pit, I won't be able to clearly see otherwise! Haha, imagine if we spot a roadie and they were ever so kind and get us into the soundcheck or something cooler. :P

I would suggest camping out the night before, if you have GA and want to be one of the firsts in. You know its going to be a big thing, and the lines will be mega long.

 

Also, I attended the show in October and I spent $35-40 on a shirt. I am SO thrilled for this next concert, I couldn't wait to see them again :) I already posted a ticker on my myspace, no one else understands how exciting they are...!

^ no one else but us and everyone else going to the concert! :P

 

 

Ugg, ONE regret though: At noon on Monday, I thought I'd just check to see what kind of tickets I would be getting if I hadn't already purchased my presale one. And after 6 hits or so? FLOOR TICKETS Section A6. AHHH someone kick me

Can I nail you to the cross instead? :D

Only AFTER the concert, alright? I mean, I did pay for a Sec 111 ticket, might as well enjoy it ;)

 

Plus, it'll be like our little Coldplay anniversary - same date - June 30th!

Haha; this board has a fascination of people being nailed to a cross...

Also, section 111 is still a great place to have seats!

Errr. I was the one who brought up the nailing to the cross both times. >_>

 

My apologies.

 

SPEAKING OF CRUCIFIXION. I think we should plan a pre-gig meetup.

The last CP show I was on the floor, amazing seats!! Ended up being so close, it was so surreal. They are pretty short to my surprise, as well, except Chris :lol:

 

Now this time around, I have section A6 row 5. I finally got them on the opening day (Monday at noon) and I didn't get nowhere with presales. After waiting in the ticketline for at least seven minutes it went forward but no good seats, so I tried again about three more times until I found my floor ticket!! I was SO excited. Don't give up hope, keep trying, even every day.. They release tickets all the time, so good luck to everyone.

 

I've never been to Toronto before, any suggestions on neat attractions?

Yeah, go to a hot dog vendor in Downtown. They taste different, I swear.

 

CN Tower is not that bad too, I suppose. >.<

I suggest the ROM, Royal Ontario Museum! :)

x_TheSkyCouldFall, I LOVE your siggy!
