[6-Dec-2011] Radio 2 Gig: Coldplay @ Dingwalls, London, UK (15-Dec-11 Broadcast Date) tickets availa

[AnnaElisabeth]

Yes, but would you be a happy concreteswoman?

 

/ totally invented that term just now

 

Why, yes, my dear Caribou, I think I would be :wacko: :ninja:

[axe]

oh no, the 15th was perfect for me...

 

So are we sure that it will be on the 6th? Do u think tickets will be given away only to UK residents?

[Cris_Santos]

Can't believe it!! I'll be in London on the 6th!!! :shocked2:

 

How impossible do you think it'll be for a non UK citizen to get a ticket?? Cause if there is a 0.0000000001% chance I'll definitely stick to it!!! :shocked2: :dead:

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

Sigh, after last year's Christmas show I now feel like I need a Coldplay Christmas gig every year, that one was so great :sad:

 

But Dingwalls is supposed to be abnormally hot and stuffy...actually when I met Will, I talked with him a bit about The Strokes' gig there in 2010 that all of Coldplay were in the audience for, and he said that was the hottest he'd ever been in his life. I hope they bring industrial-strength air conditioners so Chris doesn't flood the place :sweatdrop: :uhoh:

[Mimixxx]

Maybe that's a reason to hope I don't win tickets :P Still not over the Norwich incident :sick:

[AnnaElisabeth]

:sick: So. Disgusting.

[FixYou*]

What is Norwich incident? :confused:

[Mimixxx]

When Chris bowed and then flicked his head up we all got absolutely covered in his sweat. Like it landed on my face :sick: Soooo gross.

[FixYou*]

Ohh that's so..

 

weird.

 

:)

[AnnaElisabeth]

EDIT: Michie beat me to it :P

[NumbersGirl]

It might seem gross, but dudette... you had the-one-and-only-Mr. Martin's sweat on your face. ON YOUR FACE.

 

Lick it off.

[Mimixxx]

We all promptly got sick so what I will be doing is suing the bastard. Get back some of the money I've blown on them this year :wacky:

 

 

I was gonna say something about the only scenario I'd want his sweat on my face but this is a family messageboard :angel:

I'm going to cough him in the face :nice:

[MosesTheMarshmallow]

What if they play Christmas Lights. :D

[AnnaElisabeth]

I think it's almost a certainty they will :wacko:

I joke that Chris is the one that got me/all of us sick because it's fun, but I actually believe that he did, when you think about it :P. Also because he got sick right after as well...

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

I didn't though! I didn't drink almost any water BECAUSE they were making us share it! I had one sip when it was a fresh, new bottle and then nothing after that because I saw how they were making everyone drink straight out of it :sick:

 

PS: at The Strokes' Dingwalls gig (which is the only even indirect experience of Dingwalls that I have), apparently collective sweat from the band and the audience was condensing on the ceiling and dripping down on everyone like rain. I'd do it for Coldplay (and The Strokes) though! Just a warning to those who end up going :P

[Craigie-J]

How are they gonna ticket this then? Similar to iTunes where you just apply and hope? Or...

[fooby]

Ooh, 15th, good birthday present :P

[Jenjie]
