Freeone5914 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_escapist Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinM Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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!

Texasluvsjonny Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotrobsessed101 Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 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!

Spider-Man Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenjie Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

jimmyo Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasluvsjonny Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
