My apologies, the tickets for saleI posted are for Manchester. As previous poster, Emirates tickets dont have barcode, Coventry and Manchester do. You are all fine.
Have a fantastic time, I wish I was going again tonight.
The coventry tickets had a barcode on them and as far as I can remember, I thought they scanned on entrance but cant remember. Looking at a ticket for tonight on ebay that also has a barcode on it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/coldplay-ticket-etihad-stadium-june-10-/330739543934?pt=UK_Tickets_Tickets_LE&hash=item4d019cef7e
I guess the only way to find out is go along but take some money to buy another ticket just in case !!
If you are standing and at the back, dont worry because hopefully like Tuesday at the Ricoh they will come and see you later.
I was very very lucky at the Ricoh Arena. The band finished on stage and we were told by the security guard near our exit that we might want to have a look at the exit from our section. I dragged my sons and blimey, the band all walked out of our exit on to the back stage and like some kind of psycho I couldnt resist touching Chris Martin and all the band as they walked past on their way to the stage. So I touched Chris Martins sweaty shirt. Eeuuuww.
The show was unbelievable and I still get shivers down my spine thinking of it, especially the Xylobands. Quite easily the best show I have ever seen and I am getting old !!
