I like how the show is in NYC, and there's only one NYC contest to actually go :dozey:. Dumb residential restrictions. Right now, I think I have a better chance of winning the ACL contest, and that's in Texas :lol:!

For the list of radio stations, these trips include airfare which obviously NY residents dont require. So, are we not allowed to apply to these contests?

OMG that Houston station is killing me. You have to get points to enter by answering stupid trivia or taking surveys. :sick:

 

The things I do for you Jonathan Mark Buckland! :angry:

I think most of them state in the rules that you have to be residents of the immediate areas to apply for those particular contests anyway :sad:

I just added a website with a list of all CBS Radio stations to my first post to make it easier for everyone to search for their market. It's mostly Adult Contemporary stations running the contests. Can't look at any more of those radio websites, they are so annoying to the eyes and slow.

The one for Connecticut has you "bidding" with points you earn from being a loyal listener to the radio station :dozey:.

 

Yeah, there's really no way I'm going to this thing.

this is so bumming, so who will be going peeps just in the industry? they gotta fill up the theatre

Yeah, I bet like half of it is people that win through radio contests, and the other half "privileged" people, like sponsors and industry people. As usual.

 

Anchorman did say something like "stay tuned for chances to win" though, right? Maybe soon they'll do a giveaway on the official site like they're currently doing with 165 pairs of tickets for the ACL taping. That would make me feel a lot better, if the band themselves have a large chunk of tickets to give away to people that apply.

Yikes here are the rules but i still cant understand that tweet, i will go ask some questions but if it is what i think, and im prob wrong, our friends who are notplanning on going can tweet and if they win transfer the tix to your name, if i am correct i will start a list of who is trying for tix. *Disclaimer, I'm prob wrong but starting to panic about this show since there are so few contests*

 

edit - just sent an message to MFC regarding the last tweet. will let you all know what i find out!!

 

Win a pair of tickets to see Coldplay in NYC on their only East Coast date!

Coldplay's upcoming studio album "[ame=http://www.amazon.com/Mylo-Xyloto-Coldplay/dp/B0053YGYO4]Mylo Xyloto[/ame]" isn't out until October 24, but if you can't wait to get your Coldplay fix,you may be in luck. Our partners at Live on Letterman are hosting a free, win-your-way-in-only Coldplay show on September 20, and MyFreeConcert has a pair of tickets to dole out to a lucky fan. This is a truly unique chance to see Coldplay in an intimate setting: the famous Ed Sullivan Theater. To up the stakes even more, this will be Coldplay's only East Coast date.

How to enter

 

We're going to be running this contest exclusively through Twitter, so if you don't have a Twitter handle, get one. In addition to this contest, we have a lot of exclusives and time sensitive content on Twitter, so it is well worth it.

 

To enter: Follow @MyFreeConcertNY. Then tweet "RT to win tix to an exclusive @Coldplay concert at @LiveOnLetterman from @MyFreeConcertNY http://bit.ly/p9Y6wv #liveonletterman"

 

If you aren't our lucky winner, don't worry, the concert will be streamed live on liveonletterman.com. We (and @liveonletterman) will tweet out the official link closer to show time.

 

Winners will be announced on the 16th.

 

That's it. Good luck!

Those aren't even rules, ugh. I want the fine-print stuff that no one ever reads, but I can't seem to find those anywhere. I'm very confused about their whole "enter with someone else's name" thing as well.

 

I legitimately have no hope for this unless Coldplay do what they're doing for the ACL taping :sad:.

ok ladies and gents and sorry if i am wrong not to put this in the last of my post, not sure what protocol is after almost 5 years but MFC just got back to me on fb and heres what they say so anyone who is trying list pm or vm me and i wll make a master list, hopefully our cping friends will help our cause

 

so this is what you need to retweet

 

To enter: Follow @MyFreeConcertNY. Then tweet "RT to win tix to an exclusive @Coldplay concert at @LiveOnLetterman from @MyFreeConcertNY http://bit.ly/p9Y6wv #liveonletterman"

 

MyFreeConcert Yeah, if you have friends that want to help your cause and enter, and they win, then they can give them to you, if that makes sense.<abbr title="Wednesday, September 7, 2011 at 10:38pm" data-date="Wed, 07 Sep 2011 18:38:19 -0700" class="timestamp livetimestamp">27 minutes ago</abbr>

wow! thanks for posting the info here! cheers and good luck tomorrow! the boys will rock for sure...

Still unsure of whether or not I should go into the city and see if I can beg my way in...:uhoh:

 

All the way from Norfolk??!

 

Coldplay won't be interviewed will they just performing?

 

In the UK watch this space for any future appearance on The Jonathan Ross show.

Oh, haha, I still have that as my location. I just moved back to the US from Norfolk last month :P

 

I live outside of NYC :D. I just don't know if it'll be worth it to try to get in. I know some people sweet-talked their way into ACL, but I don't know if I'd be able to meet the same luck...and I currently have a broken leg, so I don't know if I just want to have a nice day in the city if I don't get in, especially because I'd be going alone :P

I am considering begging my way in. Sucks that i am missing them by a few days in Toronto and can't find a surefire way to get into this show.
