cmooreNC Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Hi I am from the UK but am luckily on holiday in Florida in August so being a huge Coldplay fan we want to come to the Tampa gig. I am having problems trying to buy tickets from live nation as they expect you to live in usa or canada so it keeps coming up with errors when I try to enter my details. Does anyone know how I can get tickets? Any help would be appreciated. By the way Elbow are another awsome British band and as good as snow patrol so you will not be dissapointed. Thanks! There are something like 40 sets of tickets up on Ebay, I think. Many are going for prices very near to "face value", too. Face value is around $130 each (U.S.) after one factors in all the Live Nation parking, ticket service fees and ticket taxes added to each $95 ticket. You might try there, if you don't mind paying a small premium in order to get your tickets in advance (and also avoid the risk of getting shut out if the show sells out before August 7th). (and yeah, I must admit that I have two of my Pit tickets up on Ebay ---- hopefully I'm not breaking any rules by saying that! ---- if I am, someone please let me know and I'll come back and edit this portion of the post out --- someone else has a pair of Pit tickets up on Ebay for $550.... I'm looking for FAR less than that! --- actually if my tickets sell for the minimum bid I've set, I'll be losing a good deal of money after the Ebay and Paypal fees, 'cause I paid $145 each when I bought them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinFan Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 We should all wear same color top, in addition to the yellow glow sticks. What do you think? well I know there will be glow sticks!!! I haven't had my shirt made yet, but it will be black with Coldplay embroidered on it and I am trying to decide if I want to have martinfan on it too. I am looking for colorful butterflies to put on it as well. I will be in sec. 8, unless I can get a hold of jackie or a roadie for an upgrade:laugh3::laugh3: (Fat Chance) but ya never know!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yangarin Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Pit tickets Please let your fellow coldplayers know if the Pit tickets go on sale at some point before the show. (That is how I got my Pit tickets for WPB.) Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

localola86 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 ^Guys, just keep checking Live Nation every day. That's how WPB Coldplayers got pit tickets. I won't cuz (a) I cannot afford another pair, and (b) I'm on Sec 7, which is close enough. @TillyUK: thanks for the info about Elbow. I LOVE Snow Patrol, and I'm rather bummed that they're not opening in Tampa, but Elbow seems to be a cool band (I've heard some some of their songs in YouTube) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(StubHub.com, craigslist) That is what I did with my WPB tickets :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get GA Pit let me know. ;) FYI for all interested... the 2 tix I have are on the same section, but 2 rows apart. Actually, they're on the same seat, but one is on Row H, and the other Row L That's why I'm saying that I could not sell them cuz I doubt people wouldd want separate seats like these ones. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yangarin Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 For the glowsticks I found this site: http://www.glowuniverse.com This people also sells on ebay, but for a little bit more. They have great feedback. 8" Bracelets are cheaper :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prf1 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Early Entry to venue? Anyone know if there is Early Entry into this venue? At the Atlanta show there were two ways to get in early through the VIP entrance...have a Best Buy Reward Zone card or a VIP card from the Venue (which I had). My daughter and I ended up being the first 2 people inside the entire venue so we ended up front row center PIT against the rail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
