🌙 COLDPLAY ANNOUNCE MOON MUSIC OUT OCTOBER 4TH 🎵

[##CANCELLED - DISCUSSION PG138 ONWARDS] 09-Aug-09: Ford Amphitheatre, Tampa, FL


Recommended Posts

I was wondering about the Reward Zone because I've see some concert reports that mention reward zone people go in first.

 

Wonder if there is a late night bar or restaurant at that hotel that we can hang out at after? I know I will be way too hyper to sleep right away, and a nightcap or two may help :P

 

No, there was no presale with Reward Zone at this venue. I have the reward zone card. I am taking it with me just in case.

 

If it is Holiday Inn "Casino", it should have a bar for sure.

 

 

Maybe green eyes can collect all our phone numbers and give us a call there, while waiting online. Just an idea, if Greeneyes agree, by the way what is your name? :)

OK here I go again, Your first name again??:embarassed: I will send you my cell, call me tho, cause if you text, it takes me forever to read it without the reading glasses:laugh3: and longer to hunt and peck the letters to text back. Anyone wants my # pm me:D Hopefully if Dianne and I can locate a bar, like maybe HardRock we can all get together for a drink or soda for the underage:P

 

So I looked at the Hard Rock and Holiday Inn Express. Both are right by the venue but on complete opposite sides. I am totally up for heading to the Hard Rock bar after the concert for a drink and am leaning towards the HI because it's way less expensive and has an earlier check in and free breakfast. You both have my number so call or text. Can't wait!

ahh 4 months until I am no longer underage!! lol

 

I cannot wait until Sunday!! I'll come up with a list for everyone ( if it's fine with you guys, if not let me know) of everyone's numbers who's going and list if they're in the pit or the section of Coldplayers, or wherever else so we can all get in contact with each other about lining up, etc I'll PM it of course!

 

For the people who live in Tampa or Florida: I checked the weather, it says it'll be scattered rain..my grandmother lives in tampa, and I always remember it raining everyday (not all day, just at random)....so I'm guessing this is what it means? or does that mean rain all day?? either way, I guess I'll bring an umbrella!

Yeah.. FREE Breakfast!!!!!!!!!:D

 

Ya'll won't miss me, I will have a white shirt with a huge brittish flag on the front

 

 

I'm not sure what to wear this time. July 18, I wore my blue "official" Coldplay butterfly tshirt, July 19, I wore my own butterfly t-shirt. I had a crazy idea to take my confetti butterflies, take a picture of them, then print them out on t-shirt iron-on transfer paper and decorate my own t-shirt, but I don't know if that's too cheesy or not.

 

And I've been wondering if I should bring a sign, but I'm not really a sign person, and it just means more stuff to carry. I'll have my camera, and probably a water bottle or two, in my purse, and I'm not a big purse person either...what to do what to do...

Well we have afternoon storms, todays in Cent. fl. were pretty violent, with lots of close lightening, but it's 7pm here now and has been sunny for a few hours now. I think we should be good to go, when you see the forcast saying 70/80 percent chance of rain, usually thats an all day affair. You could still come for an UN- Alkee beverage;)

MARTINFAN

Then I bought multi colored butterflies from Micheals and Ironed them on, they are like a stitching instead of a transfer, it looks cool:cool:

I'll bring my rewards card, too, just in case. And no, the Holiday Inn is really small, so I'm sure no casino. But the HRH is only a short drive away and will still be open.

 

Green Eyes, you're still a young'un! Less than 2 years older than my oldest daughter :stunned:

I like your shirt! Maybe I'll try the iron on butterfly thing, but it will only look good if the colors are somewhat true. I have the transfers. Did you sew the Coldplay on the back? I am *so* not a sew-er. Maybe I'll wear my purple scarf in honor of Will :)

I had a guy at the mall do it for me.... My butterflies are yellow, green, purple, red, minty, very bright, and now that I think about it, I got them at Walmart not Micheals.

 

Casino's in Florida are only in Tampa at the Hard Rock, then down south near Ft. Lauderdale at the Hard Rock, I don't believe there is any leagalized gambeling anywhere else in fl. except horses, and dogs and Jai li

Yes scattered rain means it will be raining here and there, not too heavy and not all day (usually in the aternoon, around 6-7 PM). But that is the forecast for almost every summer day in Florida.

 

I thought the PIT and reserved seats were cover, you won't need the umbrella, well...maybe for the line outside.

I like this idea. I'm going with my own butterfly t-shirt. There is no time to buy an official t-shirt now.

Maaan! I'm gone a few days and I miss SO MUCH!

 

Congratulations Tracey on winning the Coldplay vacation package, that's so damn sweeeeeet!!!

 

You guys must spread the energy up to where I'll be sitting. Just a few more days, holy crap!

 

Tomorrow my friend and I are making our shirts, lol. I'm gonna try to look for some glow earring too, to match with the glowsticks. Have we decided when the glowsticks will be lit up? I know they usually last like 3-5 hours, depending on the size and quality.

 

Oohh man, I can't wait. The weather's not bringing me down either. I hope to see everyone there in full rocking out mode :)
