yeahhright Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I dunno, maybe someone on here who has been to this venue before knows? Either way I'm glad I still got a seat rather than being on the lawn and chancing my ability to see/hear the show, even if they can come stand right there.

Infogatherer Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I just noticed though. For lawn GA they DO have screens so people can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeahhright Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I never understood why someone would go to a concert just to watch the screen... Does anyone know if the seat numbers go up or down from the wall? It makes a big difference on whether ill be one of those people watching a screen or the stage due to a wall possibly being in my face... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infogatherer Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I said i have #460 so i'm in the upper far left corner. most likely the last seat in a line. Also, don't worry about the wall. your viewing won't be impaired. I checked that you'll be able to see the band regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localola86 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 http://www.livenation.com/venue/meadows-music-theater-tickets click on the 3D seating chart link, type in your row and section and it'll show you the view. Not bad but Guy might be hidden a bit by the wall... I'd like to clarify that this is also my first concert ever that I am going to. First time Coldplay concert, awwwwww! The Orlando concert last November was my first. I made sure I went because I couldn't see them when they came to Tampa in 2006 (no money :cry:) I knew my seat was far, and that I would see them the size of ants because my section was in the middle-tier, center-left of the arena, facing the stage, but I was ok with it. Guess what!? I was in the section where they came up to sing "The Scientist." When they stopped at the end of my row, I couldn't believe it. There is a minute long video (taped by my brother) of me freaking out from the moment I saw them coming up from the floor. It went like this: :o:shocked2::stunned::lol::bomb::D I had not read any review, nor I was a Coldplaying member before the concert, so I was not expecting this nor I was aware of how the concerts go And then I didn't expect that something would top seeing them upclose, and then comes Lovers in Japan and the butterfly confetti. Yep, my brother caught the whole song in video, and he ocasionally zoomed to capture my sister's and my reaction :laugh3: I'm over the moon they're coming to my town, and I'll try to go to the West Palm Beach one.

Infogatherer Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Well at least this going to be better than trying to see U2 at Giants Stadium. They'll look like fleas with best available tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeahhright Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I'm just a worry wart. I want this to be awesome, but I wont be happy until I'm sitting in my seat May 23rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infogatherer Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Me too! I'm trying to predict what the set list will be like because I'm pretty sure what it'll be like, but not the order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm over the moon they're coming to my town, and I'll try to go to the West Palm Beach one. I'm pretty sure I would faint if they came up for a part near my seat so I understand your reaction completely! You're so lucky they are coming to your town too, I still can't get over the fact that I got my brother to drive me nearly three hours from long island to see this show! Me too! I'm trying to predict what the set list will be like because I'm pretty sure what it'll be like, but not the order. I realllllly want them to keep the setlist they have now, maybe adding some more prospekt songs, but overall just keep it as it is with all of the awesome songs that ive always dreamt about seeing live. Next Coldplay concert I go to i'll complain about adding different songs to the setlist. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went with my sister (fan) and my brother (not fan), and I had to buy him the ticket so he could drive. I drive, but I've never driven outside Tampa, and the interstates here are a bit dangerous, lots of accidents all the time, so I didn't want to drive myself. An extra $97 hurts, but he took the pictures and videos, I didn't worry about that (besides I cannot take a picture to save my life) :laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your brother is a real sport to have went with you and taken all of the pictures, as well. I'm pretty sure that even though ill have a camera ill be too busy watching/singing/dancing to take anything and just hand it off as well:D Go crazy! Come on its Coldplay, you know its going to be worth the money to get there and pay for the ticket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeahhright Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Another question... When do they usually release who the support band will be? Is there a usually time or does it change on a tour to tour basis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

localola86 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 ^hahaha, I think I'm better off just trying to go to the concert in West Palm Beach. Yeah, I'll spend some money, but way less than flying to NYC or DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a usually time or does it change on a tour to tour basis? I think there's a thread about it. All I know is that Elbow will be opening in Tampa. You'll have to probably wait until August >_> Nope, I'm going to West Palm (May 15, US tour opener) whatever it takes. I'll be done with the semester, so I can reward myself with this :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dergie Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Are pit tickets good? Hi - I was quick to jump on the pit tickets yesterday for the 5/23 Hartford show, but see that they still haven't sold out. Are pit tickets good? I've always had reserved seating, I don't think any shows I've been to have ever offered pit tickets so I wasn't expecting that option yesterday. Let me know your thoughts, good or bad! Thanks!

You'll have to wait in line for a couple of hours, but it's worth it! wait, what do you mean wait in line for a couple of hours? to get right up front? if you show up at showtime you'll just be in the back of the pit? that still can't be that bad, it's like 15 feet deep, right?
