playnasc Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 The tickets are only purchasable through Ticketmaster. The box office at UCLA does not have tickets for Coldplay Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonked13 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 They won't be distributing tickets until an hour before the show - at least that's what the email said, if I recall correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonked13 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Is this a full on concert or is this going to be more like the iHeart Radio thing? I woke up with Lovers in Japan stuck in my head and I am REALLY hoping they play that song tonight, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The iheart radio thing was free so that's why they didn't play as much Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The email from Royce Hall said show time is 2 1/2 hours (if accurate, I would guess 1.5 hours for Coldplay after the opening act.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am almost broke now lol I was aiming for $75 tickets and ended up getting stuck with the $166 (bought two) but nothing else pulled up so I was like screw it I'm just gonna buy them. The last time I saw them was in 2008 in Orlando for their Viva La Vida tour and Lovers in Japan is still so vivid in my head - the energy in that room when they played that song was INCREDIBLE. I'm really excited for tonight, it's been a while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But NOPE, tickets sell out in seconds Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk I honestly think there was a glitch, the tickets weren't available until like 9:15am and tickets were only able to pull on on the iPhone/Android app which I thought was weird. One would think that Ticketmaster would be prepared for such an event... I'm sorry you weren't able to get tickets but I'm sure you will have another opportunity to go see them for their tour. You could also try going tonight anyway and see if you get lucky, I've done that before and ended up getting front row center seats (not for Coldplay) because some VIPs didn't show up so tickets became available at the box office. And the other perk is you get them at face value, not some ridiculous price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on my computer and my phone clicking away but ended up with nothing. I am pretty sure everyone who bought tickets for this will show up. Its the only show in LA for a while and a small venue as well. I don't want to go there and end up not getting tickets, then I'll just be sitting outside Royce Hall in disappointment hahah.

gotcheese2768 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I was thinking about just going and waiting to see if I could get in, but I doubt that is possible. As Dianne said the Sony show will have to hold us over for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVI56 Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I've arrived. A bunch of fans in the back hanging around the stage trucks. Other than that, pretty low key at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olivialovescoldplay Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 on twitter phil said that they were rehearsing a whisper (which had never been played live) at the soundcheck. How cool is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

getithom Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Love it! They teased us with sound checking AROBTTH , Bring on A Whisper! I will probably pee my pants if they happened to play both of these tonight, to be completely honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zonked13 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 It's a good thing you guys didn't buy tickets from scalpers!! When I was getting my tickets at will call someone wasn't able to get 2 people in. They told him he was only able to go in with the perspn of his choice. It seems he had sold the tickets to two girls well the point is only the buyer plus 1 was able to get in. I feel bad for anyone who paid thousands of dollars for these tickets!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjones31 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Yeah as we were waiting to get in we heard about a guy who paid $1200 for a ticket and got turned away! It seemed like that was a trend outside.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
