19-Sep-2009: Wembley Stadium, London - Tickets, Previews, Meetups, Reviews/Photos

[lindam]

But you're not allowed to bring your pet reindeer!!:P

damn :(

[Jenjie]

That's a depressing thought.

We could conceive and give birth to a baby in the time we have to wait for this gig to come around.

Not that I'm planning on doing that of course :uhoh: :lol:

I would like to, but the tickets are too expensive to waste them. and I wouldn't want to leave a 3-week old baby at home whilst I went on a road trip to Wembley.



just enough time to have your baby, drop it off at grand parents and head over to london for the gig of the century

anybody wanna announce something?

my cousin had a baby 4 weeks ago :D

[Mimixxx]

It would certainly pass the time :lol: But unfortunately I'm missing a vital ingredient needed to create a baby :P I'm also the least maternal person in the world. :lol:

You raise two very good points, ah well back to the drawing board.

Maybe I'll learn to fly a plane. That'll take a fair few months. :idea2: :P

[Jenjie]

I could do this Party In Paris With Take That

To mark the release of their new album, Take That are launching an unbelievable competition!

The guys are offering four lucky people the chance to join them at their album launch party... in Paris! The winners will travel to the French capital via Eurostar, on the same train as the band no less. Once there you'll spend the night partying at the VIP party to end all parties, dancing the night away with the boys and watching them perform a handful of their new material to a host of the world's media.

Hopeful fans who want a chance to win the tickets to Paris should make their way down to London St Pancras International on Monday morning (Dec 1st) between 11am and 12pm to see the band off. Four people (two pairs) will be chosen in a free prize draw at random from the throng to join the band for this exclusive night out.


but I'm not really prepared to skive work on the off-chance that I may possibly get to go to Paris.

[Mimixxx]

Wow, that's a great competition :stunned:

[Jenjie]

Wow, that's a great competition :stunned:

the prize is amazing, the planning of not so. how many adult fans can just drop everything 2 days in advance on the off-chance of being able to go? Particularly in the current climate, where there are plenty of people who would be able to replace you if you were sacked.

[Mimixxx]

Yeah, the idea is great. Just not the execution.

[Jenjie]

I would love to be on a Eurostar to Paris heading to a free party with Take That. A million times better than being in work. I already know that I'll be able to speak to them without embarassing myself too much, which is always a bonus :D

[Mimixxx]

I think Gary Barlow would be really interesting to talk to. :D I'm not really a fan but I'd enjoy having a conversation with him I think :D

[Jenjie]

I think Gary Barlow would be really interesting to talk to. :D I'm not really a fan but I'd enjoy having a conversation with him I think :D

he's luvverly :D

[Lore]

or 1. take that wasn't that famous here or 2. I can't remember them

I think it's #2 :uhoh:

[Mimixxx]

He was lovely on X Factor last week :D

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

Does anyone have his ticket in his hands already?

[Jenjie]

or 1. take that wasn't that famous here or 2. I can't remember them

I think it's #2 :uhoh:

I think it was #2 as well. I remember videos of them performing in Japan & Australia, but have no recollections of South America

[Lore]

I remember Gary Barlow's name from some magazines I think...

maybe youtube will help me to remember things!


anyway, when they used to be together, most of the bands didn't use to visit southamerica

luckily that changed now :D

I still have evrything crossed for you. There has to be a trip to South America next year

[Lore]

I'm sure there will be one :D

[but a dream]

*fingers crossed*

*toes crossed*

*eyes crossed* :freak:

[Jenjie]

:D

*fingers crossed*

*toes crossed*

*eyes crossed* :freak:

you forgot your legs & arms :p :lol:

[Lore]

random but right now there's a truck outside selling propane gas and it has a man saying that they're selling that.. and the background music is clocks :wacky:

I love that truck... :heart:

[but a dream]

Oh I did! :lol:

*crosses those too*

[Jenjie]

70??????? :shocked2:

[but a dream]

woooooooooooo!

70!!! :dance:

[Lore]

the only thing I'm really jealous about this gig is that there will be so much coldplayers together and I won't be able to be there :bomb:


you should get a big coldplaying dot com banner and put it in the front row :wacky:

[but a dream]

You'll be there with us in spirit Lore :nice:

We should do that, yes :D

[Lore]

of course I will.. Ill be like the only person posting in here during that day :lol:

[Jenjie]

the only thing I'm really jealous about this gig is that there will be so much coldplayers together and I won't be able to be there :bomb:


you should get a big coldplaying dot com banner and put it in the front row :wacky:

we need someone to hold the fort and post as it happens live reviews for those who can't make it :D

and then we'll return the favour for you when you get your turn :)

[scusi]

you can be our advertising in the stands. we'll have to sort you out a banner to hang over the edge of the seating. then we'll know where to find you, and there'll be no doubt that Coldplaying is there in force :D




That's a great idea!

[Lore]

we need someone to hold the fort and post as it happens live reviews for those who can't make it :D

and then we'll return the favour for you when you get your turn :)


count me in for that :D

september 19 is a really boring day here... national holidays so there's nothing to do really :P

[Jenjie]

count me in for that :D

september 19 is a really boring day here... national holidays so there's nothing to do really :P

so we'll be saving you from being bored? fantastic :D

[but a dream]

:lol:

I volunteer to give live updates :D

[Lore]

I volunteer to receive those updates.. anyway I'm a bit far .. it could be expensive :uhoh:

[Lore]

so we'll be saving you from being bored? fantastic :D


I always come here when I'm bored... and when I'm not... and when I busy :uhoh:.. and when I'd should to be doing other things :uhoh:

[but a dream]

I volunteer to receive those updates.. anyway I'm a bit far .. it could be expensive :uhoh:
Don't worry about the cost.

All for Coldplaying.com :lol:

[Jenjie]

I always come here when I'm bored... and when I'm not... and when I busy :uhoh:.. and when I'd should to be doing other things :uhoh:

sooooo you're here a lot then :D

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

if it takes sleeping outside, i'll sleep outside :P. i'll be living in london at that point, so that makes it somewhat easier. really, if i have the chance of getting front row again, i'm not passing it up :lol:

do you think everyone else in line would murder us if we just let every coldplayer join the very front of the line? :sneaky:
"anyone with a pre-purchased yellow "COLDPLAYING AT WEMBLEY" shirt and proof of username gets to the front of the line!" :lol:

[but a dream]

if it takes sleeping outside, i'll sleep outside :P. i'll be living in london at that point, so that makes it somewhat easier. really, if i have the chance of getting front row again, i'm not passing it up :lol:

do you think everyone else in line would murder us if we just let every coldplayer join the very front of the line? :sneaky:
"anyone with a pre-purchased yellow "COLDPLAYING AT WEMBLEY" shirt and proof of username gets to the front of the line!" :lol:
Hey! You'll be moving to London? Me too! :lol:

There's going to be a bunch of 70+ people sleeping outside the gates of Wembley stadium of September 18th, me thinks.

[Odvan]

So no more standing tickets:(?

[CookyMnstr]

do you think everyone else in line would murder us if we just let every coldplayer join the very front of the line? :sneaky:
"anyone with a pre-purchased yellow "COLDPLAYING AT WEMBLEY" shirt and proof of username gets to the front of the line!" :lol:

Man, you always come up with the best ideas!:sneaky::P

Another idea...w/ so many of us, all people traveling should get together at same hotel, like a convention, get group discount:laugh3: And then we can all get a bus, and head to Wembley together. Can you imagine a huge group of super giddy coldplayers!?!?!:stunned:

Damn it I can't stop posting on here:bomb:...I'm just too.fucking.excited.:dance:

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

^haha, i like that idea! don't know how realistic it is, necessarily, but it could work! :D

and i was about 95% kidding about all of us letting each other go to the front...everyone else in line would KILL us! :lol:

[Twisted mind]

^ It's worth it! :lol:

GAH I CAN'T WAIT!! :dance:

[CookyMnstr]

LOL I know, we're all so excited, crazy ideas popping out all the time. But hey, I'm sure you and Lore thought the postcards idea was far-fetched...and look at it now!:wink:

[Texasluvsjonny]

Can't the band rope off a special section of the standing area just for us? :D

[CookyMnstr]

You see?! Great ideas are popping up here, all the time!;)

[mc_squared]

Can't the band rope off a special section of the standing area just for us? :D

Try asking the Oracle.:rolleyes:

[Carlaatje]

You??:rolleyes:

definitly NOT

I would like to, but the tickets are too expensive to waste them. and I wouldn't want to leave a 3-week old baby at home whilst I went on a road trip to Wembley.





my cousin had a baby 4 weeks ago :D

do I smell a coldplaying.com baby?! :stunned:

far too early, I don't even think the wood for the paper used for the tickets has been chopped down yet
:lol:

Don't worry about the cost.

All for Coldplaying.com :lol:
yeah I tried that onces..... Jen said NO... :cry:

if it takes sleeping outside, i'll sleep outside :P. i'll be living in london at that point, so that makes it somewhat easier. really, if i have the chance of getting front row again, i'm not passing it up :lol:

"anyone with a pre-purchased yellow "COLDPLAYING AT WEMBLEY" shirt and proof of username gets to the front of the line!" :lol:

hahah I actually did that in rotterdam, and everybdoy just let me :stunned: my sister told big stories about me, and people thought i was the biggest coldplay fan EVER and I deserved it (which off course I did) but chavi came in late, and no matter how badly I wanted her to stand with me, I didn't dare to let er cut the line...

[Chavi]

but I still managed to get to the front with you :nice:

sleep outside Carla ?? :sneaky: I'm sure Camille would agree to do it. She was already queueing at 7:30am in Paris :lol:

[Carlaatje]

but I still managed to get to the front with you :nice:

sleep outside Carla ?? :sneaky: I'm sure Camille would agree to do it. She was already queueing at 7:30am in Paris :lol:

and I'm so glad you did :heart:

well if i;m doing it you have to too! :P

I'll buy cheap ass sleepingbags and airbeds.... and throw them away after

[professa95]

if you get a standing ticket how does it work do the people there first get to stand up front

[Khalplay]

I so don't mind sleeping outside :P (that's actually what I was thinkin about)

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

i keep getting all sorts of nutso plans into my head about this :sneaky:

i somehow want all of us to get in line together and link arms and RUN together so we'll all be in the same place. unrealistic, yes, but i can dream :P. i had such high hopes for the today show this summer being a coldplaying party, but i got there a bit too late and wasn't at the very front, and then by the time it was over and i wanted to say hi to everyone, they were shooing us away :sad:. it was more of a party with my mom and brother than coldplayers :P. i think that's why i want to make this a massive party :lol:

[Mimixxx]

I agree Chelsea. I think if we're all up for meeting EARLY (or most of us) and queuing up together it could be done.

I really like the idea of us all having a united theme, you know? And I want to meet so many of the Coldplayers going. I've had the great fortune of meeting Lori, Angie and Mel and am sooo grateful for that. I'd love to meet more of the people I've come to know on here. :nice:

[professa95]

just found out i can go! woot woot

[asia]

I'm going! Count me in! I am so freaking excited... btw is Wembley stadium in London, or in the suburbs of London? I'm coming ALONE, never been in the UK, so I'm a little nervous, and I'm also going to see them in Manchester. :):):)

[mc_squared]

It's in the cemeteries of London................................ :rolleyes:

[asia]

It's in the cemeteries of London................................ :rolleyes:
what do you mean?

[Texasluvsjonny]

It's in the cemeteries of London................................ :rolleyes:England just looks dead when they play Wembley. :P

[mc_squared]

what do you mean?

La la la la, la la la la la, eh??:P

[mc_squared]

England just looks dead when they play Wembley. :P

Not any more. We're on the way up under Capello.:smug:

[lindam]

I was planning to sleep outside :P Have to buy sleepingbag etc.

Couldn't all coldplayers buy same coloured sleepingbags, so it'll be a huge line of coldplayers with yellow sleepingbags? :lol: :laugh3:

[KissesBirds]

Crazy Jonny lovers uniting.... what will he think? :heart:

There's gonna be so much Jonny love :heart:

He's gonna LOVE it!!:D



WEEEEEEEE! Maybe he will jump off the stage and crowd surf on us!!! :freak:

But he needs to keep his head away from Angie, as she has her eye on that cap! :sneaky:


Will have to avoid the Bakery until after the show. Wouldn't want to spend the 19th in the clink.


:lol:






A front row takeover would have to be, at a guess: Angie, Mel, Lori at Jonny's side; Carla, Chavi & co at Guy's side; Chris's fans in the centre; and the rest filling in the gaps in between.

A block of us would have to go in the centre, with the Jonny crew on his side of the block etc.


Weee! And Min and Kara on Jonny's side! All the craziest Jonnyfest girls from around the globe all together! Viri are you coming???




so say we make a giant bon fire the day before and all waitout in our sleeping bags roasting sausages and marshmellows while we listen to Angie tell epic coldplay stories, and giving us stalking tips and with a little coldplay music playing in the background or listen to Ian tell us about the day he decided to start coldplaying. :D


OMG epic!!!



It would certainly pass the time :lol: But unfortunately I'm missing a vital ingredient needed to create a baby :P I'm also the least maternal person in the world. :lol:



That's 2 things we have in common love! :kiss:

Yeah, right when we were getting ready for a quick picture, those party-poopers got in our faces. Well, they get...





















































THIS!!!! ---> :angry:


:P to that! we will SOOOO have a massive party at Wembley! :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:: dance:

.
You can count me in for the Guy's side :rolleyes: But I think the best place is between Chris and Guy with a view on my sweet Will *dream*


As for the queue, I don't think that it's necessary to sleep there over night. Coming early in the morning will be sufficient I guess....
As for me, I'm taking the eurostar on friday night, so I'll be in London around 10 PM I guess. But I have to convince my sister's friend who's accompagning me to get up early... I hope he won't think I'm crazy... :laugh3: Nah, he's a sweet guy...^^

But the coldplay-united-front must be realisable ^^

[Mimixxx]

Weee! And Min and Kara on Jonny's side! All the craziest Jonnyfest girls from around the globe all together! Viri are you coming???

.

What about Michie? :bigcry: :P

no, but they do make big suites. one suite per band member + one for Phil, we can all sleep on their living room floors :laugh3: if we hit 100 people going, thats only 20 people each

:lol:

I think there's going to be some squabbling over who goes where. :stunned:

There'll be about 70 that will want to go in with Chris :lol:

[Timon]

Hey guys, pleease help me, if you can.
I had asked someone i trusted to get tickets at 9.30 cause i couldn't myself. And she said ok no problem, i told her that she would have to hurry and everything but well..she just told me that she didn't get them !!! (I can't blame her.she really tried..)
Anyway, I am sooo pieced off...i'm gonna see if i can still get at least one at a nearly acceptable price..but by chance would anyone have a ticket for me :( ???

[Jsweeting]

I'm going as well, see tickets was dead easy to get tickets off for once.

[Clocks In My Place]

Besides banners I'm going to bring the Danish flag. Yay! :D I want to let the guys know that I've travelled to London just see/hear them. :nice:

[lindam]

Besides banners I'm going to bring the Danish flag. Yay! :D I want to let the guys know that I've travelled to London just see/hear them. :nice:

That's a good idea! I could bring the Finnish flag :P

[rush]

add to the list gretel and drop :D and i hope jorinde can join us too :D
(bringing my flag too)

[busybeeburns]

who? :confused:

[but a dream]

Great! I could bring my flag as well :D
What about Michie? :bigcry: :P
Nah Mich will have jumped across the barrier onto the stage, me thinks :P

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

i was thinking about bringing an american flag :wacky: even though i'll be an expat by then :lol:

[asia]

you guys i should be studying/doing my projects but i'm so excited that i can't!
ps do you think small cameras will be allowed?

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

What are you people going to do with your stuff, when we can get into the stadium? Especially you with sleepingbags and such...
What are you going to do if it is going to rain that night? :thinking:

a) are people really planning to try to SLEEP? :lol: i know i, for one, would be too excited to even try, therefore i'm not bothering with sleeping bags. besides, i'm not good at sleeping in places that are not my own bed.

b) i've heard a lot of people mention that they're going to buy cheap sleeping bags and tents and then just throw them away because you can't bring them into the venue. while i understand the motive, i think throwing them away is a huge waste and something the coldplay guys themselves would frown on. since i've heard several people say that they were going to do this, i was thinking about alerting a local london homeless shelter so that that morning, they can send someone round to collect the unwanted sleeping bags etc. that stuff is like GOLD to homeless shelters and charities, and i can work on making that possible :nice:. i just hate to see stuff go to waste.

of course, that plan is assuming that london homeless shelters work the way american homeless shelters do :uhoh:. i might need to research that a bit, but i'm sure there's some way that unwanted sleeping materials could be easily collected and taken away for a good cause.

[professa95]

Well I know it may be a little early to ask this question, but does anyone know of a cheap flight to london?

[KissesBirds]

no, but they do make big suites. one suite per band member + one for Phil, we can all sleep on their living room floors :laugh3: if we hit 100 people going, thats only 20 people each

What about Michie? :bigcry: :P



:lol:

I think there's going to be some squabbling over who goes where. :stunned:

There'll be about 70 that will want to go in with Chris :lol:


Well, I thought you would be in that space right between Chris and Jonny to see maximum love interactions. So that's a special location right NEXT to the Jonny crew. I didn't forget you Mich!!! :kiss::kiss::kiss: But I was typing this at 3 am and it wasn't completely thorough as a result. Plus I was hyper! :freak:


.

[Mimixxx]

That's okay...I forgive you :P :kiss:

I'm happy to be the CJ love spotter :wacky:

b) i've heard a lot of people mention that they're going to buy cheap sleeping bags and tents and then just throw them away because you can't bring them into the venue. while i understand the motive, i think throwing them away is a huge waste and something the coldplay guys themselves would frown on. since i've heard several people say that they were going to do this, i was thinking about alerting a local london homeless shelter so that that morning, they can send someone round to collect the unwanted sleeping bags etc. that stuff is like GOLD to homeless shelters and charities, and i can work on making that possible :nice:. i just hate to see stuff go to waste.

of course, that plan is assuming that london homeless shelters work the way american homeless shelters do :uhoh:. i might need to research that a bit, but i'm sure there's some way that unwanted sleeping materials could be easily collected and taken away for a good cause.

That's true. I can work with that too, if I just can help somehow? I don't think that it would be complicated to them to come and collect the unwanted things. :)

But I'll take sleeping bag with me, even if I probably not be able to sleep, but it's going to be cold night. It's september then, and sleeping bag is quite warm. :smug2:

You've got a big heart. :heart: What you suggest is a great alternative to throwing the sleepingbags away, which I completely agree would be a huge waste and make Coldplay dissappointed to see.

I don't think I'll be joining in sleeping in the queue... I like the idea of finding a hotel/hostel to stay at together and go to the stadium together though. :)

Me too!
Plus, if we are a hundred people, you MUST have discount :laugh3: There must be several hotels near Wembley, I'm sure we can have everyone one there!

@ Asia: for the cameras, I think it's like everywhere: forbidden. But we'll do as always: hide them :D

[Lore]

let's start the "The band should give plane tickets to lore so she could go to wembley" campaign :lol:

*starts to sell cookies all over coldplaying*

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

:nice:

i don't think sleeping bag donation would even be that hard to organize, as long as some employee from a local shelter is willing to come by and walk down the line shouting "I'M TAKING UNWANTED SLEEPING BAGS" (etc). i would be perfectly willing to go down the line and do that myself if it wouldn't jeopardize my place in line :P

so far, i've found one london homeless shelter that would take donations, but it's on the other side of the city. i'm bookmarking it for reference in case i can't find one closer and will alert them when the time comes closer. there don't seem to be nearly as many shelters in the UK as there are in the US, which i hope means that there's less need for them :smiley:

[a-chan]

I don't want to break the mood, but I you sleep outside, there might be a chance to be kick out by the police patrol.... Hotel+early queue is safer than freezing and do it all over again the next day...

yee security prob tight there...i got family that live in harrow, and thats like a 30 min drive away from there (i think its less then that) so im gonna stay there!

[crazyduckette]

Well... I already know that people have camped over night there for the Muse gig last year and nobody moves you on.

They don't do anything to kick you out, they know that people are crazy big fans and will queue overnight. For Muse, the first people apparently got there the previous afternoon..

me, I was there (for Muse) about 3 hours before the doors opened, and it was not enough time, I didn't even get into the Golden circle area. So yeah. It's going to be tough, I warn you that now!!

[lindam]

So, how early are you going there? I was thinking about friday morning, is anyone with me? :D

yeah, i was going to say that saturday morning totally didn't seem to be enough time, for all those people in this thread that said they were going to just come by that morning. i was thinking of dropping by on friday afternoon once my commitments are over and seeing if there was a line/how long it is, and then either staying there or coming back that night depending on how many people were there. i'm not taking any risks with this stuff :P, and i think everyone should plan to get in line sometime on FRIDAY rather than saturday. this is going to be HUGE.

good to know they don't move you along, though :D

And coldplayers should fill up the first row with our glow bracelets and yellow shirts ;) So I suggest that we should go there on friday to be able to do that. :nice:

Ahah that'll be a fun night... let's come with guitars too !!!

[CookyMnstr]

I think the best place is between Chris and Guy with a view on my sweet Will *dream*

Oooh I think I found my new best friend;). Save me a spot right next to you!!!!:drummer::D


Man, do we really need to stay overnight?!?!?:uneasy::stunned: For Today Show I was up for almost 24hrs(which I know is not even close to what other people did!), and though I was very very happy inside, I looked&felt like shit.:sick: Cooky needs her :sleeping: LOL. I'm sure by the time this trip happens, I'll get all crazy/hardcore fan, but I was thinking going there super early in am--6am or something--that would be enough!!!:uhoh:

Clocks In My Place (http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/member.php?u=34007)
Besides banners I'm going to bring the Danish flag. Yay! :D I want to let the guys know that I've travelled to London just see/hear them. :nice:
lindam (http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/member.php?u=35771)
That's a good idea! I could bring the Finnish flag :P
ApproximatelyInfinite (http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/member.php?u=20381)
i was thinking about bringing an american flag :wacky:
This was the first thing I thought of! Even if it's a tiny little thing, or if I make a sign I'd paint a flag in the corner or something :nice:
I'm sure the guys would love to see different countries represented, in addition to our matching coldplaying shirts;) (But how is security at Wembley re:banners, signs, etc....)

[Christa42]

I'm sneaking in and out. make me a "Warning Sign "sign pelase!

[CookyMnstr]

if it means you'll come too, i'll make a Warning Sign sign :wink:
and I'll wear the same clothes the whole time I'm in London so I can sneak you in my suitcase!!:D :kiss:

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

what do you do for bathrooms waiting in line :uhoh:

i suppose food is a concern too, if there's nowhere to buy pizza or burgers or something fast nearby, but at least food can be brought. potties...not so much. and it's not like you can go once you get into the venue either--it's RUN to get the best spot and STAY there! :lol:

kara, do you have any tips on this? you sound like the veteran of these sorts of things. were there any facilities set up for line-waiters for the muse gig?

[Clocks In My Place]

That's kind of what I'm thinking too. :uneasy: I have several reasons for not sleeping in queue:
1) Whoever I might be going with doesn't necessarily want to "sacrifice" that much for me. :confused: 2) I doubt that there is any way that my mom is going to let me do it. :( 3) As CookyMnstr did; I need my sleep and I'm probably going to look and feel like shit. :confused: 4)I don't want to sacrifice my sleepingbag. :uhoh:...

Does anyone know if there is a public toilet nearby BTW?

I think it would be really nice to lie in queue with you guys, but unfortunately I don't think it's possible for me. :sad: I hope that doesn't mean I can't get up front in the stadium with you guys so we can stand together in yellow shirts or whatever. :uhoh:
Feel free to reply to anything.

[Edit: ^Wow, what a depressing post. :thinking: :lol:

Squeee!]

[crazyduckette]

kara, do you have any tips on this? you sound like the veteran of these sorts of things. were there any facilities set up for line-waiters for the muse gig?

Yeah, I live pretty near Wembley. and been to two major gigs there...primarily the Muse one....

So, the queues are made the other side of this concourse/path that goes all the way around the stadium. The people there were ready for people waiting I think, and it was organised. They set up some barriers., not sure what time this was, but Im sure that they will be ready for people queuing overnight. I'm sure that there are toilets on the outside of the stadium that they keep open for the people waiting in the queue. If not, there is a street and some shops/pubs, also a mcdonalds about just under a mile's walk away.

Also another thing to keep in mind, is that on the tickets, they have two different entrances I think. Mine was entrance B, and I think the other one was 'F' or something. So, when running for the front, there will be another queue also running I think. :\ but maybe everyone from here might be spread between the two queues :D

[a-chan]

Oooh I think I found my new best friend;). Save me a spot right next to you!!!!:drummer::D
:D no problem!

That's kind of what I'm thinking too. :uneasy: I have several reasons for not sleeping in queue:
1) Whoever I might be going with doesn't necessarily want to "sacrifice" that much for me. :confused:

Same here.... I'm pretty sure that the person who is with me would be ok to come early but not sleeping outside!
Plus I'm working on friday and I'll be arriving pretty late at night (and he's coming from Switzerland...!) so I need to sleep in order to give it all during the concert!!

Does anyone know if there is a public toilet nearby BTW?
Good question cause I don't think that we could hold it for pretty much a day :laugh3:


And another question: the show starts at 4PM but when will the boys begins?? I mean its kinda strange to have a gig at 6PM (if we count a few openers) :stunned:

[Kon]

See you at Wembley ;)

[themaster]

hello,
i have a question!
what is the difference between "standing" and "pitch standing"!?!is a "pitch-standing-ticket" a ticket like a "front-of-stage-ticket" or is a normal standing-ticket the better choose?!i come from germany and never heard from a pitch-standing-ticket!

thank you very much!

[crazyduckette]

It says pitch, because Wembley is usually a football pitch..... they just put plastic flooring over the top of it for everyone to stand on.
Its just normal standing :)

[crazyduckette]

stoopid double post.

[themaster]

thank you
ok so there is no difference between pitch-standing and standing, that means i can get in front of stage with both kinds of tickets!?it's strange that some sellers speak from pitch-standing and other sellers from standing - its confusing!:)

[crazyduckette]

As long as you get 'standing', 'pitch standing' or 'general admission' tickets you should be fine. I think they just give them different names on some tickets sites, annoying.

[Hamsterdam]

Looks to already a big meet up planned! Lets hope the coldplayers crowd #s remains and grows by showtime!

[JeremyH]

Evening everyone,

Sorry my question might already have been asked but it seems that there are no more standing tickets available for the Wembley concert...

Im already afraid of the answer but still...I will finish my summer internship mid September and was hoping to take part to this great celebration...

So are the standing tickets already sold out?

Thanks.

Jeremy.

[crazyduckette]

they are sold out! but there is a way to buy standing tickets if you pay a bit extra.......
....from See Tickets, they are selling General Admission (standing) but with a coach journey to Wembley Stadium from various cities around the country...
maybe you could do it that way? http://www.seetickets.com/see/event.asp?e%7Cartist=COLDPLAY&filler1=see&filler2=home&dateonsalefrom=28/11/2008

And will I be able to pry up said plastic so I can bring home some grass off the pitch? :uhoh2:

[crazyduckette]

I don't think so....
but if I remember rightly, it has lots of little holes that the blades of grass were poking through.. not the same though! :lol:

[Texasluvsjonny]

Maybe all the Coldplayers could pick a few blades and help me collect.

I want some Wembley grass for myself! Maybe I'll scout some out after the show. When people start heading out. I live in America, but I'm from English descent, so I'm ALWAYS supporting my three lions.

I think I'll be sleeping there overnight, because I really need to get to the front after sitting in the nosebleed section at my last concert. My guest might just meet me the next day in line.

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

comeon,make the 19th september 2009

[Frenkerd]

I've also managed to get tickets!
Also going to visit London for 2 days, got a nice hotel next to Wembley!
My first time to London!

Question to those who have booked tickets with GIGANDTOURS: Do you tickets have been already charged from your bank account???

Cause I've got my mail confirmation, when I go to seetickets with my confirmation number, it's written that I booked 2 tickets but no debit from gigandtours for the concert showed on my bank account online....
Do I have to worry??

[Jack]

So if anyone wants to sell a standing ticket to this, or at any point realises they can't go: I'd be interested.


Not expecting anything, obviously, but if anyone sees anything like that, if you would please direct them to me :)

That's good that someone knows these things about Wembley! :nice:

I've never been in UK. Closer to the gig when we know who's going to Wembley at what time, it would be nice if some who are going there about same time as me, that we could meet somewhere and go there together. Because I'm not sure, if I will find to Wembley. :embarassed:

(Sorry about my bad english :laugh3:)

Hi, I bought through gigsandtours and also got the e mail but no, the money has not gone from my account yet. I'm sure it's fine though, they have thousands of payments to process. Don't worry.

The later the money goes from my account the better, as far as I'm concerned!!

[coldplay ticket and coach ticket]

National Express coaches are a good way to get to and from Wembley, which reminds me you can book National Express Coaches for this date already (just select destination to as "Wembley (Music Events)" [or something like that])

I wonder where I will end up on the seats (hopefully buying at 09:31 for the mid-price seats will give me something decent).

So if anybody else gets on the coach at Basingstoke Coach station (W17), meet you there :)

Hi, I bought through gigsandtours and also got the e mail but no, the money has not gone from my account yet. I'm sure it's fine though, they have thousands of payments to process. Don't worry.

Give it to the end of the week, Seetickets don't take money out straight away, they process payments in batches. As long as the money has been taken out by say this Friday, you should be fine.

Besides like Mark said, the longer the money stays in our bank accounts the better

[Kon]

Well I know it may be a little early to ask this question, but does anyone know of a cheap flight to london?

Book in advance for cheap and hope for the best that the band don't change dates around

[asia]

you guys, i think i'm going to get a heart attack, i checked my email and when i was filling the form i chose that i am from UK instead of USA ahhhhhhhh kill me now... i emailed them but no one responded yet:( do you know if ticketline can fix it?

I could contact the crazy astronaut daiper wearing lady and ask the best place to buy adult diapers and kidnapping supplies. :P

[Carlaatje]

i hope they'll make it longer then it is now...

btw HI all

[Texasluvsjonny]

2 hours is the most I've ever seen them play. Don't expect that to change.

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

i was thinking about that too. in some ways, i think that for such a HUGE crowd, they should go for longer, make it a bit more special than usual, but...i just don't see it happening. i don't expect this show to be longer, but i do hope it is :D

[Carlaatje]

you're right, although wembley might be the biggest they ever played so they're growing boys :P

but I'm happy with the setlist as it is, and i'm definitly NOT complaining... but a girl can dream....

[a-chan]

The show is starting at 4PM, so when do you think the boys will be on stage?? Around 6PM??

[Carlaatje]

nahh I think there will be more openers besides Jay-z and show will start around 9 ish as usual plus a 100.000 people take a longer time to get inside...

it's going to be INSANELY crowded with all the friday night giggers AND the saturday night people already lining up...it's going to be so confusing...:bigcry:...i hope it doesn't jeopardize places in line...

on the bright side, while we're all lined up on friday night for the saturday night gig, we'll most CERTAINLY be able to hear the friday night gig :wacky: :dance:

Are you still going to queue up at night? :thinking: :stunned: But how? With all that people...
When are you going to start queuing up then?

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

we're going to have to work that out. people are saying that with one concert going on, they're not going to let people start to line up until everyone is out of the stadium, which makes sense. as of right now, i plan to get to wembley like an hour or two before the friday night gig lets out and hover around, and then LEAP on line the second they say we can.

erm, does anyone think it's a problem that i keep misreading the word "wednesday" as "wembley"? :uhoh: :lol:
i've done it like three times now :P

[lindam]

But if people are going there (somewhere near, but not in the line because we can't :D) before we are able to line up, I think we should use waitinglist. What do you think? That would be fair to everybody. :nice:

Hum good idea! Like in school, we could have a coldplayer appeal (I don't know if it's the right word XD) every hour...
As I was saying elsewhere, I couldn't be there on friday because work+travel at night but I hope, If I find an hotel nearby AND manage to convince my sister's friend who's coming with me, to be there around 8 AM.

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

i think we could make the waiting list idea work somehow, but we'd have to make it fair to all the other, non-coldplayers waiting in line. as much as i wish we could, we can't just let every coldplayer cut everyone else in the line :\. all the other people in line would riot and kill us if we just let 70 people cut to the front :P

You're totally right... but it was an utopic good idea :rolleyes:

Yep! :smug2: When I was Coldplay gig in Stockholm, there was waitinglist and it worked REALLY good.

I'm going there on friday so early as possible, if someone else is going quite same time as me. I don't want to line up alone.

You're right, and of course we do that. :nice: When I was in Stockholm, I wasn't coldplayer yet, but the list was fair to all. And that's how it should be. :)

When we have waitinglist, coldplayers from farther line can come to the front hang out with other coldplayers. Because everyone have a number, there wouldn't be any mess-ups. :nice:

(sorry bad english, try to understand :laugh3:)

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

it sounds like it worked really well :D

but didn't the non-coldplayers or people not on the list get mad that so many people were cutting them to go to the front? maybe i'm just not understanding, but does everyone have an equal opportunity to sign up for the waitinglist, not just coldplayers?

[lindam]

Yes, everyone have an equal opportunity to sign up for the waitinglist. You write your name to the list as you came to line. But of course coldplayers in the line write also coldplayers name, who we are promised to keep place to.

It would be so awesome, if we coldplayers could fill up the first row. But I don't know if it'll happen. :\ then we could make these glow bracelets and yellow shirts things happen. :P

We have to plan this before the gig, so it'll work. But we have plenty of time. :D

[Clocks In My Place]

No, for chrissakes we've only got 9 months!!! :stunned:

















;)

[Miha]

Guys, I've got a big problem here..
It looks like we'll have to be at home come saturday 19th - in my case that means flying home on that saturday and not being able to see them..
Do you think I could exchange tickets for friday's event? What do you think my chances are? I would love to go friday, but I won't have enough money for a second event as well, so an 'exchange' is my only option. Ahh, hope this ends well..:stunned::)

[lindam]

9 months!! :shocked2:

I can't waaait!

Pu my name down! I'm up for the waiting list idea, if I still go on Saturday, I'm thinking of buying tickets for Friday instead now & perhaps selling my Saturday tickets. Better still - I might go to both!!! :laugh3: That would be awesome!

[Miha]

ok, got that problem solved, so yeah here we come Wembley YES:D

To all the people who bought the ticket through ticketline and live outside of the UK.

We wrote to their customers service to be sure they were really sending the tickets to Italy and they said they do, the only problem is that any shipment outside the UK is uninsured, therefore if the envelope with the tickets is lost they are not giving refunds and they are not substituting the tickets..the only way to be sure to have your ticket would be to change the delivery address to someone living in the UK.

I don't know if you want to write to their customer service (must say they're really quick with the answer), but keep this in mind, and the tickets will be sent one week before the show at the latest

I have ordered tickets from them several times by now and everything went well.

Don´t panic.

The person who ordered my tickets said that he got my tickets ordered insured (which costs a little extra) so I should be fine. :)

[Denise]

Tikcketlist don't do insured deliveries outside the UK, I asked them, otherwise it wouldn't have cost only 4.95£, maybe the person who bought the ticket for you didn't buy it through them :)

Don´t panic.
I don't want to panic people but I just wanted to let them know how things are working with ticketlist, if people are unsured what to do I suggest to write the customer service, they seem to be pretty quick and nice with their answers :)
I opted to change the delivery address because I don't trust either the royal mail or the italian mail too much..since these tickets are so important I want to be sure to have them :P

[UBono2]

Hi, I've 3 Tickets for the concert in Wembley, the tickets are Level 2. You can buy the tickets for the original price (186 pounds or 225 euros) + shipment (from Germany).

if i didn't have a UK buddy, this would really worry me :sweatdrop:.

i kinda worry for everyone else though, that the tickets are delivered in time. i can't believe they wait so long to print tickets...at least on the US version of ticketmaster, you get mailed the tickets a few weeks after you order them, regardless of when the show is, so if you lose them, ticketmaster's not reliale :lol:. i would think it would be much easier for them to just set a computer to print them now and mail them now rather than create all that trouble for themselves in august and september when people call and email in :thinking:

Uk system is weird...Oo In France, they send the ticket when they get the money! For exemple: I bought in june my tickets for Coldplay for Bercy (which was on september) at ticketnet.fr and I received it 4 days after booking...
UK is strange... :inquisitive:

[CookyMnstr]

Anyone else outside of UK order from ticketline before?? when did you receive your tickets??? I'm not so nervous about getting lost (but that IS a possibility :uhoh:), I'm more worried about them being shipped so close to the date of the show, that I'd already have left for London by the time they get to my house!!!!:stunned::wreck:

[HorrificAttack]

Ah shit, how did I totally miss this? It would be a bit awesome, but £65 at least for a ticket on ebay, ouch

[ApproximatelyInfinite]

several coldplayers are selling or will be selling in the next few months, almost definitely at face value, so if you really want to go, i bet you'll be able to make it :D


and if you guys knew how much most big-act concert tickets cost in america on average, i think you'd think 45 pounds (in that general area) was a pretty good price :lol:

From: http://megwordsworth.blogspot.com

So I have tickets for Coldplay at Wembley for September 2009, I'm really glad I managed to get them because i missed out on the december tour what with being in Australia and all. What I'm not so excited about is the fact tat Jay Z is supporting, luckily i didn't get the date which Girls Aloud are, i seriously would not have coped with that.

I first fell in love with Coldplay the first time they were ever played on radio one by Steve Lamacque and i have battled to love them ever since. Over the years as thier popularity has grown and grown I have fought the urge to disguard them in favour of more unknown 'cool' bands. They keep writing fantastic, anthemic, beautiful songs and I continue to love them despite it all.

I have seen them live three times before and they have never disappointed so I know that know matter who thier poor choice of support are they will be fantastic. In fact last time i saw them live (July 5th 2005) caused me to ring my mum and say something along the lines of "I'm so happy I feel like its my birthday and Christmas and I'm in heaven a little bit all at once". And I really was. It turned out to be the recording of the "fix You' video which further added to my joy. The happiness was short lived but that is a story for another time.

All i can say is me and Coldplay have a lot of history, some good, some awful but i can not wait to see them live again.

And this time I'm taking my mum

[but a dream]

Awww that's so sweet :nice:

But anyway, back to business.

:freak:

:P

[RunForTheHills]

See what I mean about all the die hards out there not registering on this forum? *sigh*

But yes, if I'm going to be this excited about the concert all next year, its going to be a bit of a problem. I had yet ANOTHER dream last night about seeing them in concert (it was the most vivid dream I've had in months), so its getting a bit crazy because that's the THIRD dream I've had in the past 2 weeks :dozey: God was it epic, though :P

[but a dream]

They don't stand a chance against us coldplayers ;)

[lindam]

Haha, no chance! :wink:
