June 22, 201214 yr So here's my prediction, since on the seating chart they have on the American Airlines Center website, they display section 301 as unavailable. Could that possibly be because that's where the band will be performing their acoustics?
June 22, 201214 yr Already in Dallas. First time here. Seems like a nice city. Going to go to the Arena in a little while to do a little reconnaissance visit. IT IS TONIGHT FOLKS!!!!!!
June 22, 201214 yr Just picked up a gig tonight at 10 so won't be home for most of this show. Have fun and keep the thread warm for me,lol!:D
June 22, 201214 yr For whoever gets there early for an opportunity to meet the band as they arrive at the arena be sure to share with us ASAP. I am going tomorrow and plan on getting their early but I am curious to their arrival time. We have been calling 4PM the average time so far that they arrive. I hope everyone has a blast tonight!

June 22, 201214 yr Oh btw guys, I was just reading some of the reviews from earlier dates. One person said that (for a similar show that had a 7:00pm opening, 9:00pm CP) they said they showed up 15 minutes before Coldplay took the stage and didn't get a Xyloband. How early do you have to show up since I was planning on skipping the opening. Also, what is AAC's policy on bridge cameras? I have a Powershot SX30 IS I'd like to take (It has a 35x zoom, but no interchangeable lens, it's not an SLR) This is the email they sent out today: Camera Policy General use cameras are allowed for this event. Professional cameras are not allowed.* No audio, or video recording devices allowed. *Cameras with lenses that are 3 or more inches in length are NOT allowed
June 22, 201214 yr Author Me and my friend went last night to drive around the American airlines center and we saw all the trucks for the stage and equipment and the tour buses for the road crew. We also hung around the hotel we speculate they are staying at, but we didn't see them. :( I will post pictures of the buses and stuff soon!
June 22, 201214 yr I think it's actually only 1 hr behind Eastern time which isn't bad. TX is so far west that most people instinctively think it's on Mountain or Pacific time. :) So far west! TX is soooo far east. From Cali that is. :lol:
June 22, 201214 yr oooooh! timeanddate.com have changed their settings. I've created an event for tonight and it gives lots of time zones around the world :) http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Coldplay+%40+Dallas%2C+Texas&iso=20120622T21&p1=70 so the gig kicks off at 3am my time :D
June 22, 201214 yr At the first round of the Viva tour they had lunch at Midevil Times in Dallas the day of the concert.
June 22, 201214 yr Author At the first round of the Viva tour they had lunch at Midevil Times in Dallas the day of the concert. I remember this! Lol! The thought of them going to medieval times makes me want to lmfao! It's a dinner and show place where you watch knights compete and you have to eat with your hands.
June 22, 201214 yr So far west! TX is soooo far east. From Cali that is. :lol: We are quite firmly in the center, at least geographically. Dallas is just slightly closer to NYC than it is to San Francisco. Timezone wise, we do tilt east. Welcome all! If anyone is looking for a few cold beers with an emphasis on local Texas beer (not Lone Star), Katy Trail Ice house is 1 mile from the AAC, all of it on a popular hike and bike trail. The Katy Trail originates right outside the north west corner of AAC (the trail heading up the hill). The food is just okay, but the beer list is great. The Common Table (more great beer) and Company Cafe (great breakfast/brunch) are other good destinations in the area near to the stadium.
June 22, 201214 yr So far west! TX is soooo far east. From Cali that is. :lol: :lol: Tracie and I are on the East Coast. So for us, TX seems so far west, yet it is only 1 hr behind our time.
June 22, 201214 yr Had a drive around the AAC. Trucks and buses parked on the road at the North end of the venue. Didn't see any one walking around from the crew. Too hot for that! Some trucks already moved down into the Truck docking area.
June 22, 201214 yr Have fun everyone, I hope they make some small changes to the show! Can't wait to see them on Monday/Tuesday :D
June 22, 201214 yr The truth is I wouldn't want to be in TX this time of the year, GA is already bad enough.
June 22, 201214 yr So far west! TX is soooo far east. From Cali that is. :lol: I never realized TX was so central. Yes, I did have the misconception that it was farther west. :lol:
June 22, 201214 yr Can it rain inside the American Airlines Arena? It just wouldn't be a Coldplay show without the rain. WC
