hoping i get tickets for x-mas this year :D lol i live in indy and this is the closest...but CP is totally worth having a 4 hour car ride

I love me some Chicago. Plus lots of space in the schedule for maybe a second show in second city. :D

omg I'm aiming for this one!

Can't wait for this show in my home town! But, why isn't it listed on ticketmaster or livenation?

:confused:

How did I know this would happen when I had no money?! Why couldn't you wait until after the holidays, boys?

 

Nevertheless, I will do my utmost to be there.

Oh Yeah! I am very excited to see them again in Chicago!!! I will be there most definitely!!!

Any idea how long will it take for tickets to sell out?

US tickets usually take a little while longer to sell out. And I'd bet they're announcing more dates. They almost always do for the US.

 

This one, though, I will probably go to, even though it's kinda far. Anyone want to meet? I doubt my real-life friends would want to go because they like shitty music.

Lollapalooza August 3-5, then Coldplay on the 7th in Chicago? Yes, please!

sice I live in Ohio this is the closest location to me, so looks like I'm going on a road trip :D

I wanted to go to a big city anyway, Columbus just seems kinda meh!

Kinda worried about the scarcity of good tickets to this show seeing that there will probably still be only 22 shows announced and we are kinda in the center so we are going to be drawing more fans from Michigan, Ohio etc.

Does anyone know the difference in seats from the $60 seats and the $120 tickets?

Proximity to the stage? I'd say the floor and 1st level are that price. The second and third level are $60

anyone who has been to a concert before, are the floor "seats" usually general admission or do you have a seat??

hoping my mom got her amex card in the mail today...buying the tickets was the only reason she got that card

I JUST GOT MY TICKET!!!! I'm losing my Coldplay show virginity in August! I'm sooooo excited! :D

I am pretty confused with this buying ticket process. Promotion code? Is there no seating chart?

 

Whats the "American Express® Preferred Seating" thing?

Does anybody else who lives in Chicago have/plan on getting a ticket? I've never met any fellow Coldplayers before (I'm a college kid, and it seems as though nobody my age really likes coldplay...) and I'm super excited to see some of you guys at the show! :)

I am like you! For sure

Only 7 months and 26 days :chris: :jonny: :will: :guy: <3

What were the best tickets you found? Any in sections 1-3?

I found some in 4,5,6 102, 103 but I didn't have an Amex card to actually purchase. :angry:

Like I said in another thread, best I've found in 106. I'm not sure if I'll jump on it or wait til next week. We should totally organize a meet up though!

 

edit: I also really hate this way of getting randomly assigned a section and seat row. I wish you could just browse what is available. Maybe even talk to a ticket agent like in the olden days.
