Nooo!:cry: I go back to CA from the east coast on the 22 of December....

Im wondering if tix will be easier to get there than in Brooklyn?

Yes and no. Way less people will try to get tickets for this one. BUT, it's a very tiny arena. 10,000 capacity. Hell, that almost doesn't even qualify as an arena. So you have half as many good seats to fight for.

 

Still, I'd say more yes than no.

wow that is a small arena!

any one know if pre sale tix go on sale for the CT for citibank holders? The website is not giving me any info. Thanks!

Just looked up Barclay and they have a little over 18,000 capacity. Of course some seats will be taken away by the X stage.

WHAT!!!!!?!? my 2nd Coldplay concert here i come!!!!!:D :santa: :elephant: :bliss: I CAN NOT WAIT!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD I'm so excited! and so happy I didn't book a trip home to Connecticut yet :) I was planning on going earlier but ummm I'll just go when Coldplay is there <3

I just wish I could have known about this sooner... I'd have tried to go to all 3 shows but I don't think I have enough money to get 6 tickets this week

any one know if pre sale tix go on sale for the CT for citibank holders? The website is not giving me any info. Thanks!

 

I think they're only doing a presale on the Barclay shows

I think it's for the New York shows only. I checked the link and there wasn't any info about any shows as of about 8:00PM EST

I really hope I can go!

I saw them in Boston this past summer, so I wonder if the sets for these shows will be much different than the MX Tour. I know the charity shows of winter 2010 were pretty regular with the addition of Christmas Lights. Maybe they'll play some new songs that will come out with the comic books?

Thanks! Ok does anyone know if it will be continuation of MX tour just closing out? ALso ticket wise what are people buying..? Also since theres only two ticket prices does that mean General admission I am so hoping for that.

I wonder if Mohegan Sun saves good seats for high rollers for this type of concert as well. I will go on a Chinatown casino bus for this.

OMG!!!!!!!!

price

 

Waaahhh I'm in NY over New Years eve. This would be great!!!! Does anybody know how much these tickets will cost? I've been looking for prices from their last show but haven't found anything... :cry:

Ticketmaster hasn't added this one to their website yet but I guess it will be the same as the first NY one: $49.50 - $149.50

Christmas Lights, anyone? :elf: :snoopy:

I'm wondering what they mean by Venue Presale. Coldplay.com only said the two NYC shows would have the Citi presale... and Ticketmaster says nothing about a presale for the 12/31 show. I wonder if the venue presale is for people with players points on their Mohegan Sun players cards? Or does that mean you can buy them on Thursday if you're there in person? The website for the arena says nothing about it. I wish they'd be more specific :angry: I'm so confused!

 

ETA: I've sent an inquiry to Mohegan Sun via their website AND facebook to see if they can clarify for me... I'll let you know if/when I get a response.
