If you are thinking about New Orleans show be advised:

The New Orleans Arena is located in New Orleans, LA. Sales to this event will be restricted to residents of Louisiana, Mississippi, S. Alabama, and the panhandle of Florida. Residency will be based on credit card billing address. Orders by residents outside of this area will be canceled without notice and refunds given.

Why can't they do this for all the shows.

AGREED !!!!

Last time they were in N.O.,you could tell the home folks were up front, those that lived farther away were in the nose bleed areas. :laugh3:

BUT, this now gives me and my youngest daughter 2 chances to see them this year. We already have tix to July Woodlands concert. :):):)

Can they make it 3 times for us???????

tixs go on sale on Ticket Rush at 10 am today.

 

IS THERE A PASSWORD LIKE LAST TIME????????

SOMEBODY HELP if you know . !!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

The ticketrush password this month is "STRINGS"!

The ticketrush password this month is "STRINGS"!

 

Thank you sweetheart!;)

AGREED!

But since Florida relies on tourism, it's a good thing that people from other states or countries come to FL for a concert.

:)Got my 4 tix , all on Floor A rows 7 and 8. Are these "up close" or what? (New Orleans Arena)

Anyone with an opinion on how good these seats are?

There were only floor seats available on the Ticketrush that I saw. Anyone else ?

:)

^I went to see the map at Ticketmaster, and those seats sound good to me :)

Man, I wished I had gotten seats like that for Tampa, but the Amphitheater system shucks :p

is the presale over?

is the presale over?

 

NO! still open till 10:00 pm CST tonight. Good luck, go to Ticketmaster.com ,password is STRINGS.

;)

Really?? I can't find it anywhere on ticketmaster! It's nowhere on the page for the New Orleans show... Can you give me a link? Thanks

(Sorry for the delayed response, was away from my pc.):\

 

You are correct, they took the presale off, for what reason I do not know.

This morning it said presale was from 10am to 10 pm CST. I was there for the opening and got my tix, then left the site.

 

Just checked it, logged in, and all it gives is "more info" , no way to buy on presale.

 

Your next opportunity is on 3-21-09 when they go on sale to the general public.

If you dont have a ticketmaster account, do it now as you may get first crack at it, maybe not? Its worth trying.

They take down the presales once all the presale tickets are sold or when the time is up which ever comes first.

Did anyone snag a seat in the stands, or were all the presale tix on the floor sections? :)

Must have a limited number for presale as it went off line by 5 pm:(

For the New Orleans show is the ticketrush password and the presale password the same thing?

Dont know but will find out in a few minutes for you.

I am being told that the password is -STRINGS- it is good for the month.......

will investigate more...........

Thank you very much! I ended up getting tickets on Friday March 20 with a presale code that I got from B-97. Thank you so much though!

Just curious- was the STRINGS password correct? :thinking:

 

Checking TicketMaster moments ago, there are still tickets to be had,after yesterday's Radio presale and General Public sales that started this a.m.

Wonder if it'll be sold out or not?

Are the floor tickets seated or standing? :confused:

If anybody has an extra pair of good seats for a huge Coldplay fan I'd be happy to grab them - even a bit over face.

 

The fact that I'd now have to pay $200 to get decent seats pisses me off - there was no buzz locally about this concert so I just had no idea about it.

 

I'm a huge Coldplay fan - you can quiz me if you want. I've seen them twice since VLV came out and I had incredible seats both times.

Yes, STRINGS would have worked. They had two places to enter a password: the ticketrush password and the presale password. I believe that if you put STRINGS in the ticketrush blank then it would have worked.

Are tickets sold out for this one?

Only LA, AL, and northwest FL residents could buy tickets.

I wonder if I can be sold one at the box office if I travel there? :thinking:

Try TicketMaster if you have a credit card with a billing address in those locals mentioned.An alternate is to get someone you know in those areas to purchase for you.

I checked TM late Saturday night & there were tixs to be had, dont know if its sold out by now or not.
