August 10, 200916 yr I noticed in your signature: Tampa 08/09/09 IN THE PIT!!! Postponed!! "I'll always be waiting for you!" Aw, that's sweet Kaleigh! thanks! :)
August 10, 200916 yr Yeah...now almost closing..... I've heard the same about the Charlotte show. This happened before, a few years ago in New York. Chris went on stage with a cold and his voice went out...they had to stop the show. :/ Hey there Thinline.. I was actually at that show in NYC (Madison Square Garden!) a few years ago. I don't remember them stopping the show...I just remember Chris having a hard time reaching some notes and his voice was giving out here and there. They were going to hit Florida (Tampa in fact) that next week when they had to postpone due to his health. Hopefully everything works out and they reschedule to appease most of the Coldplay fans!
August 10, 200916 yr It seems as though "Dianne and them" as you put it are actually enjoying themselves!
August 10, 200916 yr Bummer Hey everyone! I've been following this forum since got the tickets when they went on presale and I found out about the show being postponed by LiveNation e-mail.. Just want to say that I hope whoever is feeling under the weather gets better and that I'm looking foward to whatever comes next. It's great to meet you all!
August 10, 200916 yr It seems as though "Dianne and them" as you put it are actually enjoying themselves! We tried to enjoy ourselves. We went to the venue and sweet talked the parking/security guard into letting us go in the venue to take pics and we wanted to see the inside layout . The pit was set up with folding chairs. It was good size but not huge like at Home Depot Center in Los Angeles. Then we went to Chilis for margaritas and boo hoo'd at 9:00. And it was a beautiful night here, too. No rain today or tonight, but it aS freaking hot today.
August 10, 200916 yr Crown Royal and Patron used to dull the pain of a Jonnyless Sunday night. If they announce Thursday as the makeup before I leave on Monday evening, I will call in sick to work and stay til then.

Did you happen to notice what the "orchestra" section seats look like at the back of the floor? Are they elevated from front to back? I would probably go for those seats if they are still available when they announce the new date, assuming it will not be this coming week.

The concert she's talking about happened much earlier than 2005 - 2001 is more like it, I think. Feel sorry for people who bought tickets - but how likely is it that someone supposedly catches the flu in SUMMER? Good god.

August 10, 200916 yr Coldplay cancels concert Florida I can't translate it.. But this is Dutch.. http://www.metmichiel.nl/page/detail/popnieuws/781709/COLDPLAY%20CANCELT%20CONCERT/ Sickness.. In the band.. They never cancel a concert! But I hope they feel better soon :)

I thought they were referring to the show back in 2005! I work at a doctors office here in Florida and we do have a few cases in the summer of patients with the flu! So it does happen!
August 10, 200916 yr I sent Babrlgum an email yesterday and Tom sent me one this morning saying he still hasn't heard anything:( I will post soon as I hear anything, he is supposed to call me, but if he hasn't heard anything I guess I won't get a call. It is very unlikely that this is happening this week, I have a feeling they are going to cancel all together, or IF they have a Latin tour, we will probably still not really be confirmed, cause they haven't issued any tour dates for those Latin ones yets.:(

But it's *warm* in summer. :inquisitive: haha :lol: trust me, i live in FL and I think i've gotten the flu more during the summer and hottest times in the state :P
August 10, 200916 yr viruses Pfft. But it's *warm* in summer. :inquisitive: Viruses (viri?) LOVE warm! The reason people generally get more colds and flu in the colder months is because people gather in more confined spaces then, and viruses are more easily spread. The H1N1 virus, for example, is doing quite well for itelf this summer, but expected to be very wide-spread staring in September, when school resumes for most.
August 10, 200916 yr Thanks guys for confirming that you can catch the flu in the summer! So if you think about it...when the guys are doing all these shows...your immune system has to be weaker the longer you go at this pace! So maybe Chris was in that situation and had contact with someone....
August 10, 200916 yr Tom Petty..... The waiting is the hardest part...... Just wish they would say something, anything...............
August 10, 200916 yr Hmm... so no news yet this morning? :( What are the chances that if they go back home for that leg of the tour that they'll come back to do just one show? I'm not really familiar with large concerts.. lol
