LisaFeehily Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Anyone going to the museum tomorrow evening and wanna meet up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathieu_cpfan Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 If loads of tickets do were to pop up today, I'm always willing to jump on the first available Eurostar. Since it will start so late, I could still make it if I take a 6pm Eurostar out of Brussels. Never gonna happen, but I can still dream. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisna Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hi, I just walked around and there are no people queuing for the gig yet, just for the museum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoeboxlady Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Hi, I just walked around and there are no people queuing for the gig yet, just for the museum This is definitely wayyy too early to start queuing even for a diehard Coldplayer :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathieu_cpfan Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Are there people like me who still periodically check the ticket link? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wisna Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Even this time is a bit early to start queuing :) Well, I've experienced some very early queuing many times, I wouldn't be surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpinningPlates Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 C'mon...i'm as disappointed as anyone of us certainly is. But...life goes on, do never give up, if i would actually live in London i would definetily meet&greet some of you next monday...if not for the gig, well then for a couple of pints and knowing different people/experiences from Coldplayers. Now i'm sitting on the BA plane from Portugal to London..and unfortunately/most surely i will return next monday with no Coldplay concert and without having the chances many of you have: go to the museum, shoutout loud to crew members, meet during the afternoon and have fun, smile, sing along ORPHANHS in Trafalgar Square or along Oxford Street, have a drink 2gether....because this is it: everyday life! Viva La Vida ....and do always remember: don't take life too seriously! :sun: You came all the way from Portugal and don't have a ticket? Just wondered if to have managed to get one since you've been here? Let me know 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Too bad that it seems not a single Coldplaying member got a ticket. Hopefully some lucky kind soul will record the evening and share it with us. And i've only seen 2 people on twitter get a ticket, very strange 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I ran away Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 In front of the museum near the benches holding up a sign looking for 1 ticket ! Come by and say hello if you're there ! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaFeehily Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 And i've only seen 2 people on twitter get a ticket, very strange I think it's because it was advertised everywhere, national newspapers etc., rather than to those who had been signed up to the newsletter previously. For such a small and special show that would always lead to crazy demand. I like how they were able to prevent resales, however the ticket website was not ideal in my opinion. I had the dropdown to select tickets twice but there was no timer or anything so by the time I had selected a ticket and hit next I was told tickets were unavailable. With the page refreshing it was also not 1st come 1st served. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heavensbee Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 To all my fellow coldplayers hanging around the museum today, you are amazing people and i hope something good happens to you!! I was almost right there with you but i cancelled my flight from America. I am with you in spirit! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathieu_cpfan Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 And i've only seen 2 people on twitter get a ticket, very strange Yes, very strange indeed. I know it was kind of heavily advertised, but still... . You either had to buy the album or dig a bit deeper and see the "regular" registration link. But I was at the Exeter castle gig in 2009, the Royal Court in Liverpool in 2010 and Cologne for the GS gig. Those were also small gigs, heavily advertised and even easier to register for a presale link. All those venues were filled with loads of people from Coldplaying. Royal Albert Hall was difficult, but I imagine demand was even higher and still quite a few people managed to go. I think the only logical explanation is that way fewer tickets were actually on sale than ever before and the venue is even smaller than previous "small" gigs. I hope at some point they'll do what U2 is doing like Bauk mentioned a few pages earlier. Have a fanclub with a paying subscription. Give us something small each year in return (a vinyl single, a booklet, a fanclub only download, etc.) and first dibs at every presale. Coldplay will make some extra money from this and a lot more die hard fans would be able to go. I realize this is not their top priority and they don't owe us anything, but it would be a nice gesture. :) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldplaymakesmyday Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 But I was at the Exeter castle gig in 2009 I could be thinking of the wrong concert, but did you hear Coldplay’s cover of Happy Christmas/War is Over? It’s one of my favorite live performances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
