Thehitcher, can you tell me what your ticket number is? i was allocated 99 and 100. maybe we can work out how many people will be going?

yes, i totally agree. is there someway of reporting him or her? Its so not cool cashing in something you've never paid for in the first place! If for whatever reason i couldn't go on Mon, i would offer them to somone on here, using some kind of democratic process, if possible! Not that is likely to happen. I think the only thing that would prevent me from going on Mon is if something truly dreadful happened to me or my kids and i'm sure none of you want that!

I totally agree. I didn't actually confirm my purchase of the free tickets until i worked out how i was going to get from Bury St Edmunds to London, booking a hotel room in the Oval, which I've since done and confirming the person who is coming with me can actually go! So, it took me about an hour after recieving the email to purchase tickets. Don't rush into it. Maybe plan ahead just in case, but there is a lot to consider. i do have to question whether those living abroad can actually make it. if not, then i'm sure those tickets will be released. which leads me to think the following: - All the ticket winners will be notified today - Winner have 48 hrs to confirm. - Tickets that have not been confirmed will be released on Thur and then those winners will probably have 24hrs to confirm. Do you think this is the likely scenario folks?

Hey Laura, well done and i look forward to seeing you there. I'm assuming at least 500 tickets will be given away, that's 250 winners. I've never been to Brixton Academy, so what do you think the crowd capacity is in there?

I'm from near Birmingham, but I travel a lot to London with my job. On Mon i'm in Bury St Edmunds for the day and instead of returning home, I', now searching for a hotel near the Oval where i can crash for the night. Have faith, these things happen when you least expect it. now i'm going to tell you something that may freak you out...3 years ago, i entered a competition to see Coldplay at the very intimate Round Chapel in Hackney. I entered via the old forum on Coldplay.com. I won! You may recall seeing this gig as MTV live, it was recorded and you can see me as I was standing right in front of the band. It was one of those most surreal, yet life changing experiences of my life. I never thought i'd win this competition, but the night before (and this is for real) i had a dream about the band, but i never got to hear what they wanted to tell me, but i could sense it was important, because my kids woke me up and i was kinda miserable for the rest of the day over this dream. I know, maybe its time i went for therapy.!!:D

don't despair folks. i've just recieved this very minute email confirmation that i'm a winner to see Coldplay perform at Brixton Academy on 16th June..Who hoo!!! this is the first time i've been onto coldplaying to check the message boards to see if other winners had been notified, because i hadn't heard anything for both the Brixton and BBC gigs. Whilst i was reading the messages an email popped up. Just stick with it guys. i have 48 hrs from now to register my tickets etc. I think they'll be notifying people until tomorrow. all the best and i hope to see some of you there! OMG, how lucky would i be to see Coldplay at the BBC TV studios as well as Brixton??!! AND i've already been allocated 3 front tickets seats for the first UK gig at the NIA (after queuing for 3hrs!)
