[Clocks In My Place]

Yaaaaaay! Finally! I've been hoping and waiting for this for months! :dance:

I have to save up much money, because I already have tickets for Wembley Sep 19th and I can't leave that out! I'm definitely trying to get tickets to this. :D

These news totally made my day. :dance:

[Mattolinko]

Oh...my!
They're going to DK! I can't believe it!
I wonder if my parents will let me go...

[Gya]

I want to go there to!


Would someone from you translate this for me please?

Billetpriser:

Inderscene Ståplads: 595,00 DKK + gebyr
Alm. Ståplads: 450,00 DKK + gebyr

As far as I understand both are standing tickets?? The first category seems to be closer to the stage and the second further away. Or what does Ståplads mean?
Google translator doesn't work for it.

And holy shit, tickets are even more expensive than in Germany :(
And I had no idea that you guys don't have €! :sombrero:

[Clocks In My Place]

Would someone from you translate this for me please?

Billetpriser:

Inderscene Ståplads: 595,00 DKK + gebyr
Alm. Ståplads: 450,00 DKK + gebyr
Ticket prices:

Inner scene Standing: 595,00 DKK + charge
Ordinary Standing: 450,00 DKK + charge

Yeah, they're pretty expensive, I think so too... :\

I'm so excited though! :dance:

[Gya]

Thank you!! :kiss:

Can't wait to see Coldplay and your country Denmark :dance:

[Clocks In My Place]

No problem. ;)

:dance:

[RoosAnne]

yeeeeah, i'm coming too!:dance:

[Stefan-C8]

Inderscene Ståplads: 595,00 DKK + gebyr
Alm. Ståplads: 450,00 DKK + gebyr

So what's the difference? They have like two standing areas? And no seating?

I might go to this one, although it's expensive. € 80,- + shipping costs and fees...

Yep, they have only standing areas. The first one is closer to the stage.

[Gya]

I might go to this one, although it's expensive. € 80,- + shipping costs and fees...

I think you can print the ticket at home. That's not so expensive then. Still expensive, though.

[Gya]

So that everyone knows how awesome mc_squared is... thanks to him I will be able to visit this concert! :earmuffs: Thanks again.

I only got a ticket that is further away.. but who knows maybe this will be better in the end. More time for Denmark, stalking..., then I don't have to queue the whole day, and since it's Open Air, I will be able to enjoy the athmosphere and don't have to run like a nutcase.

[Clocks In My Place]

mc_squared got you a ticket? :surprised: Cool. They still have tickets for sale on the website though.

My mothers boyfriend ordered for my big brother and me two inner standing tickets (yay!) and ordinary standing tickets for himself and my mother. :dance:
Unfortunately, we've got two tickets too much right now, because you weren't able to order the inner standing tickets from the start, which were the ones that my brother and I wanted. So four ordinary tickets was ordered, but then the function came to the site after 1½ hour (!). :\

[Gya]

Yes, but I don't have a credit card :embarassed:

Well, can't wait for the gig and hopefully to meet some Danish fans.

[RoosAnne]

we aren't that many danish fans here on coldplaying.
but at least you can meet Julie and I :D:D

[Clocks In My Place]

Yup that's right. ;) :D It'd be cool if we met each other by chance.

I got the tickets by mail yesterday btw, so that went fast. :nice:

I'm excited about seeing what size the innerscene area is.

[RoosAnne]

I tried to google MCH arena and found this picture ..
Guess the innerscene is the part of the arena closest to the stage, right?
The innerscene doesn't seem that big though, which actually is a good thing - then the chance of FRONT ROW is bigger:D:D.
http://mch.dk/presse/fotos/genesis-stor.jpg

[Gya]

You already got your tickets? Great! :wideeyed:
I'm always so scared they could get lost in the mail, haha.

How many people fit in the MCH arena at all? Maybe I should get one of these seats... as I am rather small. Gah, last time I was front row, can't believe I will be so far away this time... but at least I will see other people in front of me now, makes you feel more to be a part of the crowd, I guess.
Hope you guys get front row :sultan:

[Clocks In My Place]

Thanks for the photo RoosAnne - just what I needed. That was what I was thinking/hoping; the smaller the innerscene area is, the bigger is the chance for front row. :P
Do you have any idea how many people there are in this picture? :thinking:

Thanks G o A. I hope we get front row too. :D

[Gya]

I was just thinking... there's a line... space... between both areas, I should get there, maybe Chris is running past :p


MCH Messecenter Herning, MCH Herning Kongrescenter, and SAS Arena

SAS Arena comprises:

* 7,300 seats
* 4,500 standing places

I'm confused. The name of the arena seems actually to be "SAS Arena", the rest around it is called "MCH".

http://www.mikaellykmadsen.dk/skyscrapercity/herningflyvetur/flyvetur16.jpg

http://www.mikaellykmadsen.dk/skyscrapercity/herningflyvetur/flyvetur17.jpg

No idea, if they will play in that stadium, or like in the first picture, Roos Anne has posted.

But only around 12.000 people? I thought it'd be more. (But I like it smaller anyway :square: )

[RoosAnne]

thanks G o A - hope you get the place you're looking for too.:)
I don't know how many people fit in the arena, can't find it on the internet too, but it seems to be quite a lot..
It shouldn't be that hard to get front row though. We just have to be there early.
I'm soooooo exited. And since this will be the first concert of their european stadium tour, it may get really nice - (Probably a new setlist and other surprises)!!:D:D

[Gya]

I hope so. I love surprises :happy2:

[RoosAnne]

Now I'm confused too:) but on my ticket it says "MHC outdoor arena".
SAS arena is the football stadium of the local football club ..

[Gya]

Then I guess it will be like in the photo you have posted...!

[Gya]

As it seemed there is going to be a Camp Coldplay :wacky: I wrote an e-mail to MCH.

That's what I got back:


Dear Marina

Thanks very much for your mail and your interest in the Coldplay concert.

We are working on making an english version of the website, so more people will have the possibility to follow our preparations for the concert.

The plans for Camp Coldplay are not final yet, but we are thinking about making a camp very close to the concert arena, where fans can stay before and after the concert. It will be affordable and it will probably be possible to buy a complete package including a tent for those who do not want to bring their own.

We will make sure the site will get an English version and then you just have check for updates and news. It will also be possible to sign up for news on the e-mail or on your cell phone.

That sounds awesome!
The local camp-site doesn't write back to me, and the hostel is already booked out...!! (The hotel just next to the arena is a way too eeeexpensive)
I guess I will feel pretty lost in the middle of so many Danish fans.. but well, I haven't camped for a while, so this will be getting exciting! :lol:

[QUOTE]

A Camp? Nice, that'll sure be better than staying at a hostel if you live far away from Herning.
And sleeping between bunches and bunches of Coldplay fans....fancy:smug:

[RoosAnne]

wow a camp is a very nice idea!
I'm sure it will create a special atmosphere :')
Thank you so much, G o A ;):nice:

[Clocks In My Place]

Hmm.... I highly doubt that I can get my big brother to sleep at a camp. :confused: If I'd even get permission from my mom. :(
It sounds fun though. :)

[RoosAnne]

hi guys,
has anybody heard more about the coldplay camp?:)

[Gya]

No, no new news yet (What a sentence).
I signed up for their newsletter, and on the homepage there's nothing new yet, either.
They should finally get that done... :P

At least my ticket will arrive in the next few days finally... :smug:

[RoosAnne]

yeah, quite funny sentence:lol:.
Even though the concert is months away, I hope they'll soon tell us some more about this camp:P.

haven't you received the ticket for the concert yet?:thinking:

[Gya]

No, someone from this board bought it for me, and now I wil get it, cos he was on vacation :square:

Do you want to sleep at the camp too?

[RoosAnne]

oh, I see.:)
yes, I'm thinking of sleeping there..
I live an hour away from Herning, but I think the atmosphere at that camp is gonna be indescribable right after the concert.
Just want to experience every single thing which has something to do with 'Coldplay-in-Herning':P.

[Clocks In My Place]

This site (http://www.koncerteriherning.dk/index.htm) is apparently dedicated to this concert and will probably contain all the needed information. There's not much yet and it is in Danish, but you can subscribe to sms or email news service.

[RoosAnne]

that's great - thank you julie.:hug:

[Clocks In My Place]

No prob. ;)

I'm trying to win some more Danish Coldplay fans to coldplaying - I've written a little "advert" in my comment to the Lost! video in the TV music show Boogie. :D

---
Jeg ved det, jeg ved det... Hvorfor ser jeg Boogie? :rolleyes: Jeg ser det en gang imellem (i håbet om at en Coldplay video kommer på). Jeg har heller ikke nogen musikkanaler, så det er lidt det eneste alternativ jeg har. JA, jeg kan også godt lide pop-musik, RnB og andet... :P
Lige nu kan man stemme Lost! ind på BoogieListen. Det vil vise sig om den kommer ind i morgen. :)

[Larry]

Awww, you don't have any music channels? Well you don't really miss much to be honest. :lol: Isn't Boogie a popular music show on DR1? I read about it once.

Good idea!

[Clocks In My Place]

Awww, you don't have any music channels? Well you don't really miss much to be honest. :lol: Isn't Boogie a popular music show on DR1? I read about it once.

Good idea!
:inquisitive:........ Aaah, Google Translate? :P

Well, I don't really know how popular it is, to be honest. :\ I think it was a better program "back in the old days".
I still remember the very first time I saw/heard "The Scientist". :wacky: I was not even or did not become a fan back then - I must have been 10-11 years old. :rolleyes: But I still remember it - It was that epic and beautiful!
Anyway, it's just me personally who don't have music channels, because I haven't got cable tv or stuff like that. I can see 4 channels. :dozey: I think there is some Danish MTV and something called Voice... Maybe the other Danes know more about that. ;)

Haha, no Google Translate! I understand a bit of Danish and Swedish. It's very similar to German and Dutch. :)

Just 4 channels? :shocked2: Well here MTV is rubbish! That's why I said you don't really miss much. :laugh3:

Do you live close to Herning?

[Clocks In My Place]

Haha, no Google Translate! I understand a bit of Danish and Swedish. It's very similar to German and Dutch. :)

Haha, sometimes I can guess German texts.

Yeah, just 4 channels. :\ The one of them is just a news channel. At least I get my mothers' boyfriend to record the Grammy awards on ProSieben. :) He's got lots of channels!

No, I don't live close to Herning. Actually I live in the complete opposite end of Denmark, (Bornholm), and have to drive through the country. :dozey:

Do you receive ProSieben in Denmark? I think it's one of only a few channels to broadcast the Grammy awards in Europe. :)

Oh you live in Bornholm? Then I think Herning is even closer to my home than to yours. Crazy! :laugh3: I will probably spend some days in Denmark and Sweden this year. Can't wait! :)

Uhm, yeah with parabolic you can watch lots of channels. :thinking: CNN, Animal Planet, MTV, Hallmark, German channels... And my mothers boyfriend's got LOTS of parabolic. :stunned: But I think he only watches German channels and channels that transmit American football. :P

Haha, it probably is. :lol:
That's cool. ;) So it'd be stupid to ask if you will see Coldplay in Herning. :rolleyes:

[Gya]

Seems he is rather going to Düsseldorf than Herning, ohohohoh *g*

[Larry]

Hehe, well Coldplay concerts aren't cheap, so I only bought tickets for Hannover and Düsseldorf. But Herning would have been great, too. I like your country! :nice:

So how do you travel to Herning? By car? That seems to be a long way... :o:)

[Gya]

Don't know if you meant me, but I will travel by train :)

Btw. I wished I would be able to decipher Danish so good too. I only can make out some words.

[Larry]

Well I meant Clocks In My Place, but it doesn't matter. :)

I still don't know whether to use the train to Düsseldorf. I will probably use my car as there won't be train connections back to Bremen at dead of night and I don't want to neither spend money for a hotel nor stay the night in a railway station.

Well Danish is a lot harder for me to decipher than Dutch I have to admit. But it's cool that all languages are more or less similar to each other. :)

[Clocks In My Place]

Hehe, well Coldplay concerts aren't cheap, so I only bought tickets for Hannover and Düsseldorf. But Herning would have been great, too. I like your country! :nice:

So how do you travel to Herning? By car? That seems to be a long way... :o:)

Ah, I see. Well, I have saved up money (and still am - working without buying), so I will be going to both Herning and Wembley in 2009. :shy:

My mom, her boyfriend and my big brother (who lives in Jylland, Denmark) are going too, so we'll be going by car. :) It's not that bad, but that's maybe because I'm used to it from when I go visiting my brother. As long as the iPod is charged the drive can even be a pleasure. :D


Yeah, deciphering languages is a good thing being able to. Sometimes it goes alright for me, but I don't think I'm as good as Larry. ;)

[Gya]

Have you guys ever heard the language of Luxembourg? That's the most weird language I've ever heard. It's a combination of all countries around Luxembourg, it sounds so weird :lol:

[Clocks In My Place]

No, I don't think I have. I'd like to hear it sometime, because that sounds weird. :freak: I'm often pretty bad at identifying languages I randomly hear. :confused:

Not to seem really egoistic, and this is totally random, but look what comes up when I google "MCH outdoor arena":

Do you think they are going to use the tribunes? I mean there are only two types of tickets for purchasing and they are both standing tickets.

[Gya]

Probably they're using it. Your sight would be better... so I guess they're using it.
And you can stand on the tribune as well.

I really want to see more pictures of our place... gah! :karate:

[Clocks In My Place]

Probably they're using it. Your sight would be better... so I guess they're using it.

I really want to see more pictures of our place... gah! :karate:
Looking at the picture Roos posted it doesn't look like you get a better view from the tribunes as their so far out to the sides, IMO. But of course if you are thinking about the hight then maybe. :\
Whatever, I'm going for front row. :smug: :P

I want to see more pics too, but it seems impossible to find more on the internet of that arena. :confused:
http://mch.dk/presse/fotos/genesis-stor.jpg

[Clocks In My Place]

Okay, looking at the pictures from http://mch.dk/presse/fotos.asp I can now see where the arena above is:

http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s326/Coldplayfan/04-mch-alene-sydvest-outdoorarena.jpg
It's right where I have put the red ring.

http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s326/Coldplayfan/05-mch-stadion-nordvest-ourdooraren.jpg
It's right where I have put the red ring.

So it seems we'll be standing on either grass or asphalt depending on where we stand.

As you can also see, there are plenty of hotels (the pink beds in the picture) in Herning (I was mainly thinking for you German fans) and one really near. :)

[Gya]

Yeah, I think it is there where you've marked it...!
And hotels? They plan to do that Coldplay Camp, but they're really taking their time... still haven't heard anything new about it.

[Clocks In My Place]

I too would like to know about that Coldplay Camp, even though that it is not very likely that I will stay there anyway. I just hope that it doesn't reduce my chances of getting front row, which it probably does. :(

[RoosAnne]

I too would like to know about that Coldplay Camp, even though that it is not very likely that I will stay there anyway. I just hope that it doesn't reduce my chances of getting front row, which it probably does. :(

I'm afraid you're right, Julie ..
Those who stay at the camp probably will start queuing in the night, I suppose.

[Gya]

I'm havin 1 ticket to sell, sadly :(
Please e-mail or pm me. I'd also trade the ticket for the concert in Berne.

[valypan]

Has the Coldplay camp been confirmed at all? People queuing in the night worry me quite a lot! I am quite short, only 160 cm, so my chances of seeing anything from anywhere behind the front row are slim.....

[Gya]

Nope. Haven't heard from it either. Maybe they are going to cancel it...?

[valypan]

I would like to petition for all people under 160 cm to be allowed a front row ! *LOL* Who is with me? :)

Hej Frille,

Godt at det virker nu :) Skal du også til koncerten Frille? Indrescene?

[Jeppe96]

Hey people!

I heard you were looking for some information on the Coldplay concert here in Herning..

Let's see if I can't help you a little :)

So what's the difference? They have like two standing areas? And no seating?

The "Inderscene" is the area closest to the stage, and the other are the tickets further back. Seating is available as part of the hospitality package which is priced at 1500,00 DKK.


Has the Coldplay camp been confirmed at all?

Coldplay Camp has opened for reservations. If you're danish or understand danish you can read more here: http://www.koncerteriherning.dk/coldplay/camp_coldplay.htm

For those of you who speak english, you can contact Stina Ulriksen on +45 9926 9926 or via mail: stu@mch.dk

You can either bring your own tent, or buy a package in which a tent is set up and ready when you arrive.

---

I also saw someone asking what the capacity for MCH Outdoor Arena is, and we estimate a max of 45.000 people at the Coldplay concert. The football stadium is called SAS Arena and has a capacity of approx. 12.000 people, but this is NOT where the concert will be held.

Some of you were asking for pictures of the area which you can find here:
http://mch.dk/UK/press/download.asp

There are no images of MCH Outdoor Arena, as Coldplay is the first actual concert to be held there, so you'll all be part of the opening of this new area.

I hope I answered your questions - Feel free to post more and I'll see if I can't help you :)

Regards, Jeppe from MCH.

[FrilleDK]

Hej Frille,

Godt at det virker nu :) Skal du også til koncerten Frille? Indrescene?

Ja det skal jeg, glæder mig som et lille barn, var også i hamburg og se dem i sep.

Er der nogen der har overvejet at overnatte på campen natten inden koncerten?
Jeg har nemlig tænkt meget på det - især fordi der så vil være stor mulighed for at komme forrest i køen og dermed øge chancen for FRONT ROW;).

Btw, velkommen til Coldplaying, Frille og Jeppe. :)

[Clocks In My Place]

Er der nogen der har overvejet at overnatte på campen natten inden koncerten?
Jeg har nemlig tænkt meget på det - især fordi der så vil være stor mulighed for at komme forrest i køen og dermed øge chancen for FRONT ROW;).
Ja, men jeg tror ikke jeg kommer til det. :\ Min familie har allerede bestilt billetter til færgen fra Bornholm og det ville kræve at min storebror også gad sove på campen, hvilket jeg ikke tror han gider. Jeg ville skulle tage et tog med min bror (som også har inderscene) fra Århus, hvor vi overnatter, hvis jeg skulle sove på campen natten før.

[Mattolinko]

Campen åbner først på selve dagen klokken 11.00, så man kan ikke overnatte på campen natten før - så det er vel bare om at komme tidligt, i guess ;)

[RoosAnne]

Shit, det havde jeg ikke lige opfattet. Godt observeret, Mathilde ;).
Dvs at man kun kan sove på campen efter koncerten? Årh, hvor plat!
Men så kan du måske godt sove på campen, Julie - hvis det altså er natten efter koncerten?:).

[Clocks In My Place]

Den åbner først kl. 11 samme dag? Super. (for mig altså) :) Men så skal jeg vel næsten være der kl. 11, hvis jeg vil være forrest i køen? :confused: Noget tidligere end jeg havde tiltænkt. :uhoh:

@Roos: Nja, men så er pointen med at sove der gået af for mit vedkommende. Så jeg tager med min familie den aften. :)

[RoosAnne]

Det er svært at sige, hvornår man skal være der for at komme forrest i køen. :S
Men tror ikke det er noget problem for os at holde en plads i køen til dig og din storebror, hvis det er. Og ellers kan jeg sende dig en sms når folk begynder at komme så i ved om i skal skynde jer. Og ellers kan vi holde en plads til jer oppe ved scenen, hvis vi kommer ind før jer (vi er alligevel 6 personer, så vi kan fylde meget). Og ellers..... ja. Masser af muligheder for at komme forrest alligevel :D:D.

[Clocks In My Place]

Er du der kl. 11? Det lyder godt, Roos. Det er virkelig pænt af dig at tilbyde. :hug: Vi må finde ud af noget. :)

[lucyb]

Does anyone have a spare ticket for the front section closest to the stage please?????

[RoosAnne]

Ja Julie, det må vi lige. Jeg vil i hvert fald meget gerne hjælpe jer :).

@ Lucy
I know that [Gya] has a spare ticket which she wants to sell. It isn't a ticket for the area closest to the scene though, but it's definitely better than nothing....

[Gya]

Hey, sorry but I have sold my ticket just yesterday :\

However, I still can't wait till this concert will take place, cos I still feel so connected to it, haha. Can't wait to read your concert reports then :wink3:

[RoosAnne]

aww, I'm glad to hear you did sell the ticket after all!:)

Haha, well.. I can't wait for the concert to take place either. :dance: :lol:

[lucyb]

I am trying to book a hotel. Do any of you know what the Homeland Hotel is like please? Also what is the closest hotel to the arena? (Is it nice?) How easy is it to get from the train station to the arena? Would any of you like to meet me and help me out when I arrive in Herning as I have never been to Denmark, am travelling on my own and am a little nervous!!

[lucyb]

Please send me a message if you reply! I can never find this thread easily!!

[Gya]

There's a hotel just next to the arena, I forgot its name though.
And then of course you could sleep at the Coldplay Camp with a tent, which is already set up. Just look a few postings before this.... there you're getting all the infos you need...! :wink3:

[Jeppe96]

Hey people..

Just a quick update on the status of concert here in august.

The hotel next to the arena is called Hotel Herning - you can find it here: http://www.hotelherning.dk/

We just had our "practice run" with the Springsteen concert on wednesday, and all the logistics and planning went smoothly.. 51.000 people in and out without problems.

The train stops at the MCH station, just a couple of minutes walk from MCH Outdoor Arena.. There will also be shuttle busses from the city-station to the outdoor arena.

If you want to see som aerial footage from the arena from the Springsteen concert, you can find it here: http://www.mch.dk/kultur_event/bruce_tv.asp

Some of you have been speculating in where the Outdoor Arena actually is - Well, here is a little map with the arena, train station and hotel. http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/8404/mchy.jpg

And just a couple of pics from the Springsteen concert, so you can see what it's like :)

One more thing: Warming up for Coldplay will be White Lies (UK) and Moi Caprice (DK)..

Any further question feel free to ask :) Cya in Herning in August.

Jeppe, MCH

[RoosAnne]

Thank you very much, Jeppe!:nice:
I'd like to know how big the inner-scene is.. How many people can be in there?

[Clocks In My Place]

Thank you, Jeppe. :)

Where is there going to be car parking?

[the_escapist]

i want to go to this concert - don't have a ticket though! and on friday 14 i will be in the hague, netherlands...

so...does someone here have a spare ticket or knows someone who does? and do you know if it is very far from the hague to herning?

please help! thanksssss!!!

[RoosAnne]

Well, I'm in the Netherlands quite often as my family lives there.. If you'll go by car I suppose it will take about 8 - 9 hours from The Hague to Herning. :thinking:

But unfortunately I don't know anyone here who has a spare ticket.:(
The tickets for the inner-scene are sold out, but you can still buy tickets for the area further away from the scene though.:smiley:

[Clocks In My Place]

If my brother can't make it after all I'll have a spare inner scene ticket, but I can't promise anything at all. :blank: So don't get your hopes up.

[the_escapist]

If my brother can't make it after all I'll have a spare inner scene ticket, but I can't promise anything at all. :blank: So don't get your hopes up.

thanks both for your answers! clocks in my place, when will you know if your brother can make it or not?

[Clocks In My Place]

I don't know unfortunately. :\ I told him to tell as soon as he knows if he can come or not.

[the_escapist]

I don't know unfortunately. :\ I told him to tell as soon as he knows if he can come or not.

let me know when he does then - if he can't go, you have a buyer for your ticket! thanks!!!

[RasmusG]

Anyone know who the "Special Guest" is?

[Clocks In My Place]

Anyone know who the "Special Guest" is?
To be honest, I don't think there is a "special guest"... It's only billetlugen.dk (and the tickets), not coldplay.com who says that there'll be a special guest. Maybe they are thinking of the support acts. Just my oppinion though.

[Jeppe96]

Hello again people..! We're getting close now..!

Everything is running smoothly getting ready - We just hosted something called Green Concert, a charity event attended by approx. 35.000 people, so our crew is surely warmed up to take care of you all at the Coldplay concert.

To answer some questions:

Thank you very much, Jeppe!:nice:
I'd like to know how big the inner-scene is.. How many people can be in there?

I don't have the precise number of people who have access to this area, but I would guess that it's about 2.000 - 3.000 people.. No matter where you're at in this area, you have a great view of the stage...

Thank you, Jeppe. :)

Where is there going to be car parking?

Pretty much every open space around the Outdoor Arena will be used for parking. At the springsteen concert, the parking lot farthest away was a 20 minute walk, but people who parked here were able to go directly from the parking lot on to the freeway.


---

Hope to see you at the concert

Jeppe from MCH.

[RoosAnne]

I read that "White Lies" and "moi Caprice" are going to be the support acts/special guests at the gig in Herning? :rolleyes: But not sure if that was just a rumour.. :thinking:

Edit: http://coldplay.com/newsdetail.php?id=427&page=0

And thanks for the answers, Jeppe!:cool:

[Jeppe96]

I read that "White Lies" and "moi Caprice" are going to be the support acts/special guests at the gig in Herning? :rolleyes: But not sure if that was just a rumour.. :thinking:

That's correct.. White Lies (UK) and Moi Caprice (DK) are the warm-up gigs before the actual concert. They will play for about an hour before Coldplay hits the stage.



Cheers
Jeppe

[Clocks In My Place]

Thanks for the answers, Jeppe. :)
Where are there toilets and how many? :thinking: This probably sounds like a dumb question. :lol:

I read that "White Lies" and "moi Caprice" are going to be the support acts/special guests at the gig in Herning? :rolleyes: But not sure if that was just a rumour.. :thinking:
I know. It's true, but you can't really consider them being "special guests" can you? :shrug: They are the support acts, which is something there is at every big concert. :confused:

[Jeppe96]

Thanks for the answers, Jeppe. :)
Where are there toilets and how many? :thinking: This probably sounds like a dumb question. :lol:


There are groups of toilets all over the area, both in and around the Outdoor Arena, and in the surrounding parking lots and pathways. I don't think you have to worry about the toilet facilities :)


Cheers
Jeppe

[argeroux]

If anyone still needs a ticket, I have a spare one - not for inner scene though... Anyway I'd love to get rid of it, so PM me if you're interested in taking it & spread the word :-) Thanks in advance!

[valypan]

Hey Jeppe, Thanks for answering the questions here! I have one for you. I have a inner scene ticket but I am quite short: only 160 cm! Will I be able to see something even if I dont make it to the front row? It might seem like a dumb question but it can make or break my day :)

[Montreal]

cool

[RoosAnne]

2 WEEKS!:stunned:
:dance:

[qwert500]

Hey everyone! first post here :)
I got my hands on two tickets last month and was wondering if there are any other swedes that are going? or anyone near grenå going by car?
I don't really know how to get to the concert yet so i thought that i could check here :)
Cheers!
oh - one more thing. 13 days left :D

[Clocks In My Place]

How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin...

ONE WEEK. 7 DAYS TO GO!!! :stunned: :shocked2: :dead: :dance:
Imagine it... In one week exactly, they've been playing for 35 minutes! :stunned:

Thanks for the answer. :) Good to know. :D

@Jeppe - Will there be more than one entrance? I have an inner scene ticket.

@the_escapist - It's now definite, if all goes right, that I will not have a spare inner scene ticket, sorry.

[RoosAnne]

Can't believe there's only 6 days to go!:stunned::stunned:
Seriously, we'll see OUR BOYS in just a few days.
It's just too wild. OH MY GOD.

:smug:.

[Clocks In My Place]

Yes, it's unbelievable. :stunned: I haven't seen them before, so I'm super excited. :uhoh:

[RoosAnne]

I can imagine how excited you must be Julie!
Ah, thinking of Sunday makes my smile big time:smug:.

[MartinFan]

Bumping this thread up from the bottom!!1 Let's hear some noise Denmark!!!!!! We want to hear ya all the way down and over in Florida:guitarist::drummer::singer::guitarist::cla p::will::chris::guy::jonny::clap::clap:

[Clocks In My Place]

I will do my very best. :dance:

Booh, it seems like it's going to be a rainy day Sunday, so we better get prepared. :shifty: Not fun when waiting in line, but now I think about it, it can actually be an advantage for us - other people might not want to queue up as early as they would if it's not raining. That way we'll get a better chance to get front row. :rolleyes:

Only 5 days left... :bomb:

That post made my goosey all over!! IT FEELS SO CLOSE NOW.
I'm SO ready for Sunday!!!! yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
And I'll do my best too:dance:.


Oh no, I hate rain :(. But as you said, it might turn out to be a good thing concerning the queueing part. Not many people will start queueing at 11 am if it's pouring. :thumbsup:

FOUR DAYS. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!

[Clocks In My Place]

Now they say on telly that there's even going to be thunder. :(
Make sure to have a rain coat with you!
4 days! :dance: :worried:
I hope that they're all fit for fight now. :anxious:

I'm probably going to send some tweets during the waiting and after the show, so click the link in my sig if you want to follow me. :)

[MartinFan]

That's all Chris needs after being sick:cry:

[Dfit00]

Hopefully Chris will have gotten a haircut already done for this show :dance:

[Clocks In My Place]

What, thunder?
Hopefully Chris will have gotten a haircut already done for this show :dance:I certainly hope he has! :uhoh:

[RoosAnne]

Thunder?!:uhoh:.
Oh well, I bought a rain coat some weeks ago.:sneaky:
Rain can't stop us from queueing all day, right Julie?:cool:

[Clocks In My Place]

Thunder?!:uhoh:.

It can't, that's definetly right, Roos! :cool:
I just hope that it isn't cold...

Edit: Damn, I was about to get a heart attack when I first read European tour to continue as scheduled. See, I've been worrying about it since the Tampa show got postponed, so to my eyes it was easily something negative as European tour notto continue as scheduled. :sweatdrop:

[professa95]

Im counting on you guys to get an ever needed setlist change. Now that there back in Europe it seems likely. Let's hope for the best!

[RoosAnne]

Yeah, I was worried about that too! It was too nice to read that it continues as scheduled. :nice:

Im counting on you guys to get an ever needed setlist change. Now that there back in Europe it seems likely. Let's hope for the best!
I think it's time for a setlist change as well. Even though the current one is almost perfect, it nearly hasn't changed since the start of the tour..

[Clocks In My Place]

I do hope that they continue playing Politik... :escaping:

See you Sunday, Roos. ;)

Everyone else can follow me on twitter for little tweets now and then before and after the show.

[AdamDenmark]

Two days left..Its absolutly insane...Can´t wait...This is without doubt the biggest year for me when it comes to music - To see my 2 favourite bands in the world in a radius of 40 kilometers lol :D ..The kIllers in Skive & soooooooooooooon Coldplay in Herning..

What a summer..

I´ve realised there is a god up there.

[nancyk58]

2 days to go to Coldplay in Herning - :cool: but do not forget the rain coat (maybe an umbrella is not such a good idea as it might be quite windy! And the umbrella might block the views of other concert goers!) It should be more than 20degrees Celsius, maybe a little sun, some rain showers and maybe thunder as well! So the weather might constitute competition for the boys !!

For those able to watch Swedish Television: SVt1 = Channel 1, Sweden on Tuesday 18 August at 20 o'clock to 20.50: Coldplay now and then. A documentary coming close to the band from their first BBC studio visit to their many great outdoor concerts" - from a description "preview" in the weekly magazine "Billedbladet". :cool: and umbrella

It says that you are not allowed to bring umbrellas..I guess its because of what you wrote on blocking other views...So the raincoat is a good idea =)

[Clocks In My Place]

The umbrella can also be a weapon.

[AdamDenmark]

The umbrella can also be a weapon.


It can for sure..Think I still got a mark on my back after a Nada Surf concert with a girl who couldn´t handle her umbrella.

But if you're blessed on the chest area, I suggest you hide it somewhere in between :gorgeous:

[nancyk58]

Thank you, Valypan - I also wish you a good night with plenty of sleep.

I wish everyone a wonderful , unforgettable and peaceful concert and hope that all members of the band and the crew are fit for fight so that they can give another unforgettable performance. :)

I look forward to hearing Chris speak a few Danish words. When he did that at the Roskilde festival, I was very impressed - very good pronunciation, indeed. :)

I also look forward to Chris rolling round just before starting singing "Lost" (immediately after Viva la Vida). :)

VIVA LA VIDA ! :laugh3:

[Zeya]

Sounds like you've got some experience with that? :D

No, I didn't .
Which songs from Roskilde did they play?

RoosAnne: I wrote you a PM on this and a message for you. Please read my PM and confirm having read it!

The answer to your question: Viva la Vida (and a qualified guess "In My Place" where Chris Martin after finishing the song says: Tak, tak, tak (very little accent, very good pronunciation). I have written much more about today's quiz in the PM, so read this and please confirm having read it!

I really must be going - as I have two trains to catch - one from Bagsværd to Copenhagen at 10 o'clock and then from Copenhagen to Herning.

See you and Julie at the concert, I hope. Have a nice day! :laugh3::):cool:

IMO, all the upcoming european shows are kind of 'stadium concerts' so hopefully we'll get some setlist changes/additions :cool:

Of course I could be wrong. :\

Apart from that the stage pretty much looks the same. The magic balls are still there and so are the ramps.

Woohoo, I have the feeling that the shows will be very nice :wink3:

[akindofmagic]

Pyro? That would be amazing, of course.
But I guess this is just some LED lightning.

[Mimixxx]

The stage is massive! Squeeeeee. Makes me uber excited for next month!

Am praying for a setlist change.

[Zeya]

That's a very big stage...

[LittleMissMessy]

Pyro? That would be amazing, of course.
But I guess this is just some LED lightning.
Sure, could be as well ... :confused:

We will know for sure after tonights show :)
But some fireworks at the end would be amazing, I guess *dies at the thought of it*

Positive thing about it:
The wider the stage, the more first row spaces, BABEY!!! :laugh3:

[Jenjie]

it def has ramps either side too :D you can just make them out

[LittleMissMessy]

Okay, I am revising my guess about the pyros ...
I reckon it's just plain LEDs 'cause pyros probably wouldn't be so close to each other ... :\

[Zeya]

Chris will be running all over the place..:lol:

OMG I've been secretely hoping/wishing/praying for fireworks at Wembley since I first bought my tickets!:bomb:
Coldplay karma :inquisitive:+:bomb:

[LittleMissMessy]

Chris will be running all over the place..:lol:
Hopefully he did some practice before ... ;)
Not that he's miscalculating ;)

[Zeya]

I hope he'll be more careful with all the sickness..:\

[LittleMissMessy]

Btw. around 1 1/2 hours to go ... :)

Even though I will see them in 9 days only, I am excited as hell. Esp. hearing about setlist changes/additions :D

I am pretty sure he is.

Otherwise most of Europe has the same timezone and the climate is not too extreme as well, so he should be fine :)

[Chavi]

Boo me! I got no willpower :drunk:

[r25d01]

[Mounira]

Impressive !!! OMG just can't wait !!

[mayurshikotra]

didnt one of the guys say that they are looking to increase and change the setlist for the stadium shows??

[LittleMissMessy]

didnt one of the guys say that they are looking to increase and change the setlist for the stadium shows??
It was mentioned back in April, if I am not mistaken, so I thought they would have changed the setlist already for the US shows which didn't happen :confused:

So I am a little careful whether we really get changes/additions!? :\

[Mimixxx]

I'm hoping they've been working on it this week...not holding my breath though, especially since Chris has been sick.

Guess we'll find out soon enough.

[LittleMissMessy]

[Mounira]

I absolutely care about his hair & definitly not about the setlist (don't wanna know :D)

[Mimixxx]

Good job you don't care about setlist, cos it seems the same to me from the few tweets we've had :sick:

Hope I'm wrong.

[Mounira]

Sure that there'll be some change (longer setlist, new "old" song added..) & I don't wanna know those changes :D It'll be more excitin to have the surprise in the gig XD

[LittleMissMessy]

Show should be over sometime soon :(

It's 10.50 pm over here and hopefully people will find the time to tweet afterwards.

Does anyone know the Twitter-name of Roosanne or the others?

[CPRani]

It has ended now I think, the clock is 22:56, and they end around 22:45-23.00.

[LittleMissMessy]

Hopefully people will now find some spare minutes to send some updates via Twitter ...

I am getting impatient :laugh3:

[iduran20]

I might get hated for this... but I like his hair the way it is, I don't really care if it's short but I prefer it how he has it now. Anyways I just want to know if Chris sounded good and healthy.

[Mimixxx]
