October 13, 201114 yr So, do you think that if I didn't get an email about the VIP pass yet, then I probably won't get them at all? :[[[[
October 14, 201114 yr yeah, no VIP passes for us :( guess we'll be camping out for 12 hours like the plebs that we are :P
October 14, 201114 yr Does anyone know for sure that the emails for Fan/VIP Passes have been sent or not? I haven't gotten one yet but I registered on Monday. It's odd because the email notice to register came 2 weeks before, instead of the usual 1 week. Guess they thought demand would be high :)
October 14, 201114 yr Oh sorry, just saw the message above. Maybe they're slow to send out - keep hope alive!
October 14, 201114 yr Blah, plans are falling throughhhhhhhh. Forget the sun gods, I'm praying to the Coldplay karma gods to finally smile upon me for ONCE, cause if I don't get a VIP or Fan Pass I don't think I can go anymore :( :( :( are there any Coldplayers with connections/good karma/something that can possibly help me out?!?!
October 14, 201114 yr My music theory midterm got moved to friday, so now I can't go. Unless I go and leave right after and race back to Philly for my exam :\ This fucking sucks. :bigcry::bigcry: Also now I ruined Zoe's plans :shame:
October 14, 201114 yr I ruined both of your plans :disappointed:. Eff NBC for not giving Ian passes this time around for him to distribute how he saw fit :angry:
October 14, 201114 yr Yeah, I'm beyond bummed about of the VIP passes. I wrote the longest essay (as in used all of the characters available) explaining my love for Coldplay. NBC is the worst. But, whatever, still going and it's going to be great! Stayin' positive. LESS THAN A WEEK EVERYONE!
October 15, 201114 yr Yeah, I'm beyond bummed about of the VIP passes. I wrote the longest essay (as in used all of the characters available) explaining my love for Coldplay. NBC is the worst. But, whatever, still going and it's going to be great! Stayin' positive. LESS THAN A WEEK EVERYONE! eh, it's not about the fact that I want a good spot, it's the fact that everyone I know is now either VIP or not going, so I have no one to go with :\ I can't go alone, so... hoping for a miracle so I can still go!
October 15, 201114 yr hi everyone!!! haven't been on here in agessss, what a terrible fan i am :embarrassed: i signed up for a pass on monday or tuesday i believe and havent received an email back. pretty much lost all hope =[ how long after you signed up did you get the confirmation, halokiti?
October 15, 201114 yr I was away on business most of the week and didn't see the info about the passes until yesterday. But I went ahead and applied anyway! Praying that it'll work out but I will be there even if it doesn't. I'm not camping out - at my age I need a bed at night! - but will get there around 5 a.m. If anybody wants to keep in touch via text while there please send me a PM. And if anybody has an extra pass and no guest, I'd love to be there with you!
October 15, 201114 yr I didn't get a VIP pass either... :'( I wrote a very short thing about how much I love Coldplay, and how I'm flying up from Florida to see this which is a pretty big deal for me since flying is one of my biggest phobias ever. My boyfriend also did one (even though he's staying down here) and simply put "I plan on bringing one guest" and didn't get an email back either. Bummer! I haven't found anyone to go with yet, since unlike 3 years ago, all my CT friends all have grown-up jobs now and refuse to call out... but I'll go either way. The only thing I'm worried about is finding someone to hold my spot while I run around the corner to McDonalds to pee or something. It'll be a good time no matter what though, I'm sure of that.
October 15, 201114 yr OKAY. let's take a survey. Who here does not have VIP and is planning to camp out? I am camping out if I can make 100% sure that there will be other Coldplayers there, damn the consequences!
October 16, 201114 yr I am going but I am not camping out. I was planning on heading over between 4-5am. I am really bummed about the VIP passes. I got an email 2 weeks ago and replied right away. I figured I just didnt get them. I was out of town all week and just got home and saw they sent another one and missed it. Ugh. I will have my daughter with me who is almost 8 and was really hoping we would be close so that she can see the band. I would love to meet up with anyone who doesnt have VIP.
October 16, 201114 yr this is my first time posting here guess i've been too shy to do so anyhow, i plan on camping out for the concert i applied for the fan pass but i doubt i'll get one plus i forgot to include how many guests i wanted to bring i plan on leaving home after Grey's Anatomy goes off so i'll be camping out all night i wanted to drag my friend along but she really doesn't want to camp out
October 17, 201114 yr Hello! I have not been in here in ages, but a quick note on VIP passes and what not. This will be my second time going to a Today show concert (Yes I won passes this go around) The first being John Mayer last summer. I just want to tell people do not give up hope and to let you know if you did not get a set don't be too bummed. I had fan passes for JM, and the set up was not that great, no "perk" really, the people without passes were pretty much in the same part as we were, and unfortunately there was A LOT of gate hopping, and people were just pushing up front. It was quite the scene.
October 17, 201114 yr This is my first post too. I applied for a pass as well... should we have heard back by now? I just checked on their website and the "Ever wish you could be front and center when your favorite music star performs on TODAY? Well, now you can. For a chance to get a fan pass to Coldplay's concert" up on the site. Which means Im assuming they are still accepting responses? I wrote this huge thing about how i am a college student in physical therapy program and this concert is fate because its just 2 days after 2 of my hardest finals (neuroanatomy and neurophysiology) and its the only weekend I have off until christmas. How can you say no to that! :) Despite the pass situation I still plan on driving the 5 hours thursday after the finals and being there at 1 or 2 am (my friend in NYC Im going with has to work at 11am after they perform so i want her to atleast get a little sleep haha) See everyone there! :)

Not really sure how to use this whole "quote" feature yet... I'll be there too and the 2 friends Im going with might have to leave for their 'real jobs'... we can have eachothers backs with the whole mcdonalds peeing stuff haha... what time do you plan on going?
October 17, 201114 yr Yes, definitely still camping out. CAN'T WAIT! :) I'm definitely bummed about the VIP pass thing, but it's nice to hear that they didn't necessarily pay off for the John Mayer thing. Thanks so much for the info on that!
October 17, 201114 yr Hey I'm interested in camping out - have done it twice before for other concerts there last year, it was a lot of fun, bc you're hanging with die hard fans, plus some people bring their instruments or radios and play the music. I can arrive after 11p since i'm working till then, let me know - PM me, I would like to be a part of this bc this album is amazing and i'm an old school coldplay fan from the get go - it's great to see how far they've come. I actually skipped out work for an hour last time they were there in 2008, totally worth it. definitely camping out for this one - can bring supplies let me know.
October 18, 201114 yr WOOHOO FOR CAMPING!!!! okay, we should coordinate supplies- it's gonna be a long, cold night! :P
