September 13, 201114 yr Author We'll have my husband to push back the pushers ;) He's big, well, not big big, but 6'2". I'm tall, too, and I can stick out an elbow pretty well. good. I'm super short. Maybe I can use you guys as shields! :lol: Young the Giant, Grace Potter, The Kills, and Bright Eyes. All excellent but it got super bad when the Kills came out. See, I think we're in really good shape: Asleep at the Wheel (prob won't have a huge crowd of rowdy teenagers), Brandi Carlile (same), Ray LaMontagne (big crowd, but mellow hopefully), Bright Eyes (big crowd, possibly rowdy). Much more mellow line up than that at Lolla!
September 13, 201114 yr Author I am very happy that all of us will be there together and we can finally all meet :) Me, too. We'll have fun, even w/out the taping :cool:

Much more mellow line up than that at Lolla! Awesome news! See I wasn't sure cause i've only heard of Bright Eyes(It's so funny I am seeing them twice!) I would love love love to be in the front row for ACL, I was second row at Lolla. So close, yet so far lol.
September 14, 201114 yr Aww poo, that was my chance to see the guys this time around :( Oh well, I hope you all have fun! I at least get to watch it live on the youtube link thank goodness! I wonder if any Coldplayers will win taping tickets?

September 14, 201114 yr I am still bitter that I was this close to going to the ACL festival, but plans didn't want the same for me. I wish all of you going a great time, though! I'll be watching on the internet.
September 14, 201114 yr Austin City Limits taping this Thursday Hi Fans. Did any of you win passes to see them this Thursday at the Moody theater in Austin? Please contact me if you can't make it. I live in Austin and would love to go. [email protected] Thank you!
September 14, 201114 yr Author Sorry, none of the regulars here got passes. I'm in Austin, too... are you going to ACL fest?
September 14, 201114 yr Me, too...now we HAVE to be in the front on Friday. My husband's not too excited, but he'll do it for me :) You, me, Jen and Amanda, was there anyone else? There's a Jennifer on the list, but I don't know if it's Jen or not. Add +1 - Susan! LOL Dianne - my hubby feels the same way! He likes CP just fine, but my constant rotation of their music has worn on him a bit. Thank God he still indulges me, though! I'll do whatever I can to get up front Friday as well. Hubby may have to hang back a bit with my 10 year old, but I'll be ready to get my elbows out, too, since I'm only 5'4". But when it comes to my "boys", I can act 6'2"!! :wink3: I look forward to meeting all of you & wish all of you safe travels today & tomorrow!!! Susan

My husband likes Coldplay - after all these years, I've trained him well ;) He's just not excited about camping out all day. I've taken 3 out of our 4 kids to see Coldplay and they all love the band after seeing them. Before it was just "mom's music," but after taking our 12 year old daughter and her best friend to the UCLA show last month, they're big fans now. We also brought our 15 year old "too cool for Coldplay" son and one of his best friends who is a huge Coldplay fan to UCLA, too. For all of his complaining about "mom's music" and "Mom's freaky Coldplay friends," he had a good time and was happy he knew the words. LOL Our older son is at college now, but I brought him to see CP when he was 13 (in 2006). Gotta start them young... Lauren, do you have eveyone's cell numbers? How are we going to meet up/find each other? I've looked at a map of the park, are we going to try to find each other before we go in or inside? I haven't been to a big festival with multiple stages. What time is everyone planning on being there? I know there will be other CP fans not on the boards, obviously, who will want to be in front early, too... Like I've said, we'll be in Austin after 4:30 Thursday. Even though we don't have tix to ACL, since it's a very short walk from our hotel, maybe we'll head over there anyway just to see what's going on. I'll need to walk around after flying all day :) I am SOOOO excited. I loved the UCLA show, but our seats were totally obstructed and that's a whole 'nother story, so I'm really looking forward to actually SEEING the band, the effects, and all.
September 14, 201114 yr I'm going Thursday night to the ACL taping at Moody Theater. If somehow I come across any extra passes I'll let you know. :)
September 14, 201114 yr Hey guys! So I won two stage passes from the coldplay.com giveaway. My question is, are the passes guaranteed? I saw that the balcony level ones aren't but the email said nothing about the passes not being guaranteed. Also, it says to show up no earlier then 6, which leaves me to believe I'm guaranteed my passes. Thanks!
September 14, 201114 yr You're so lucky! I'm still going to show up and see if anyone is willing to sell them. Please let us know if you hear of any extra passes. I will see them Friday night but seeing them at the Moody Theater would be amazing. The venue is so cool!
September 14, 201114 yr There's a good chance of someone at Moody Theater selling you a seat if they have extras. As you said, show up anyway that night and see what happens. I entered the contest and won a pair of passes. But the venue won't hand out the passes until that night. You show up with your ID, a copy of the confirmation email, then they give you the passes. Once someone has their passes they may sell one to you, so if I were you, I'd hang around the front where people get them. I've never been to Moody Theater, only seen pictures on the web and driven by a couple of times. It looks very intimate, something I'm really looking forward to. I read that the theater only holds around 2500 people, so any seat is a great one. :)
