I haven't posted on this forum in over two and a half years, but this right here has forced me into making this post. I've been following what's happening and it seems quite obvious what's really going on here. Let me explain: First of all, it wasn't your idea to team up with Brendon. It's quite clear that you were only looking for voting support from this wonderful community in your original post. Then, a few posts after that, Brendon chimes in and says he's quitting the contest with Jimmy. It's quite apparent that Brendon approached you on the subject, which makes sense after you said you supported him and Jimmy in their contest. Jimmy didn't know anything about this, he even said himself that he hadn't heard of it until he read it on here. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what we in the hedge fund business call a double-cross. As an international philanthropist, Jimmy is no stranger to working to garner public support for his causes. I can affirm firsthand to how diligently and proficiently this man operates; there is no doubt in my mind that he was working his tail off raising votes for that contest. And for his partner to drop him without first consulting is a breach of their original contract to aggregate votes together. Now, all of this begs the question: Why would Brendon suddenly quit one contest (which was far from over, btw), and move all of his efforts over to another one? Now I don't know Brendon well enough to look at this and say his actions are cowardly, because I don't know if he is a coward. But I do know that he's a male, and as a male I can attest that any heterosexual male would MUCH rather go to ANY concert with a female rather than a male. A guy will dip out on a male if there's the prospect of meeting an interesting, young female- it's just biology. If you think he switched over to you solely because he thought he had a better shot at winning with you compared to Jimmy, then you're either very naive or very delusional. I guarantee that Jimmy would've been able to push them into the lead by the end of the contest. To put it bluntly, with Jimmy he had a chance to win, with you he has a chance to win AND score... There's also the problem of how Brendon broke his tacit contract with Jimmy to join forces and try their hardest to win their contest. You just wrote up this WHOLE contract, took a picture for validation, made sure that people KNEW you would uphold your end of the bargain, but have you even stopped to wonder whether or not he'll hold up his end of the bargain? This guy hasn't exactly proved himself trustworthy, and believe it or not he hasn't really even proved that he's going to work hard and really garner votes for a cause like this. You guys know Jimmy is a good guy, and a humongous Cold Play fan. He's helped out other fans plenty of times before, he didn't deserve to get screwed over like this. I can't really blame sk8trgrl, she seems very innocent and possibly clueless to some harsh realities of the world. None of that is really her fault, though. It is Brendon's fault, though, that Jimmy lost a shot at talking to and meeting Chris Martin. If you think about all he's done for this community, and he's been to FIFTY-ONE SHOWS I cannot think of a fan who is more deserving of winning a contest like this. Shame on you, sir. Shame on you.

Inside.

If you guys want to see some pics and possibly videos from the event, my buddy is going to be live tweeting photos and I'll prob post some videos from the event. His twitter is @jimmydushku and mine is @ghosttoon.

My buddy is a huge fan and we'll be there. If anyone else on here wants to meet up lets get something together. Is anyone going to the actual concert from here btw?

Thanks for sticking up for me. I am just trying to learn about Coldplay. Everyone has to start somewhere. Also thanks to everyone who has suggested songs for me. Will any of you be in Vegas over New Years?

Thanks for not putting his name down. He values his privacy.

I think he was kidding about selling it on facebook. He would probably give it away. He is a nice guy.

Thanks for the help. Also my friend has another extra ticket. He may give it away to another fan.

Thanks SueDeNimes, my friend had an extra ticket and invited me. I know I don't know much about Cold Play, but I want to be respectful and have some knowledge about the band. Was looking for a cliffs notes shortcut. My buddy is actually a member here so I hope he doesn't see this haha.

I was just invited to see Cold Play in Las Vegas in a few weeks and I honestly don't know anything about this band. Can you guys please recommend some songs to start listening to and any info about the band I should know? Thanks guys.
