Yeah, if you're willing to maintain a list, you can add me too. :)

 

List has been added to top of first post.

I'm SO excited for this! I've never seen Coldplay live before, and now I finally can! :D I've got my fingers crossed that they aren't going to conflict with Muse! :o That would really suck... because my friend and I have already vowed that if Coldplay and Muse both play on Friday, we're gonna watch Coldplay, then drive 8 hours to Kansas City to see Muse play at Kanrocksas on Saturday :laugh3: I'd much rather be able to see both in one place ;)

 

Anyway, I'm pumped! :D Actually, the announcement that CP is headlining Lolla is what rekindled my love for them... I'm prepping myself for August ;)

 

 

That said, chances are I won't be able to any big meet-up with any of you since I'm already meeting up with so many other people I've met at gigs in the past as well as the Muse fans.

 

:laugh3: Michael? From .mu/the Lolla Skyping? (I recognize your avatar, and your post on this thread about Musers are serving as some big clues... Hahaha) It's Amanda/Treblerose689 :p LOL Fancy meeting you here! :p (Have you guys been still been keeping up with the Skyping? I'll be around more this Summer to do it for sure :p)

Hahaha, yeah, it's me. :P Nice seeing you here too! I actually visit Coldplaying more often than I visit .mu :laugh3:

(The Lolla Skype sorta died out, but I still Skype regularly with a lot of people going. You're always welcome to join in.)

Squeeeeeeeeeeee! I will be at the Festivus!

Will be nice to meet you Christa!

:dance:

Does the dancing mean you're going Lore, or are you just happy for Christa? :wacko:

Booked my hotel, but am still making a decision about the type of ticket. Is the VIP worth it, anyone?

You get the drinks, golf carts etc. but if you really want to see coldplay close up I wouldn't buy VIP. Your viewing area is off to the sides of the festival up on a hill. Kind of like this- The view from VIP

Anyone want to speculate on which night Coldplay will headline?

That's the $64 million dollar question! I'm assuming Muse Friday, Coldplay Sat and Foo Sunday. I had a dream Muse cancelled casue of the the Baby Momma and Arcade Fire took its place, random but had to share. I'm only going for 3 days total so not buying my plane tix till its announced, bought my Lola 3 day pass

 

I guess we wont know till its announced

There's at least one person staying here, I think it was on one of the past few pages.

 

I stayed there a few years ago and I came out just fine so you should be okay. :lol:

I've stayed there a few times for Lolla. Congress is old, nothing fancy, but definitely not scary and VERY close to Grant Park. I prefer it to the Travelodge, and it's a whole lot cheaper than the Hilton. Definitely recommend checking in as soon as they allow. Waiting in the lines will suck, but it only gets worse if you wait.

OK, I just changed from haunted Congress hotel to Hilton Plaza one block down... at least my headache went away and I can sleep at night!! I just kept seeing the guys hand that buried alive... geez! Oh well, sorry I won't be able to see "Peg Leg Johnny" and I really don't cares. I need rest for all that festival time! :)
