I dunno if it's worth getting excited about b/c we'll get screwed again on tickets. I was hopeful to go to more than 1 texas show but if I have to pay almost 3x face value for one show, I think I have to put all my eggs in one basket and just go to one show.
sigh...

I really want to do a two-shower this year, since I've never done it before, but it HAS to be on a Wednesday again, ugh!! Dallas was too difficult to pull off. The fact it's a month and a half earlier than the Houston date is a big plus, ha. I too really like the fact it's not outide. Oh well, I will try. Of course, I'm going to be back in England when the tix go on sale, so I hope I remember...

I keep getting the same seat in row 14 or 11. It seems like there's nothing else available. Weird.

Very true, I was stuck off to the side of the stage. It was a very weird position. I went ahead and purchased some now, but I'm determined to get right up close at least one time this year.

AHHHH! I'm soooo excited I got Section 10, row 13 aisle seat right next to the stage!! Yay, that makes up for Houston, although I do have a pretty good ticket now for that, but this is WAY better. It'll be like Toyota Center again last year. I honestly can't believe I'm going to TWO Coldplay concerts this year :)
I feel kind of lame going on my own, but oh well, when they are the middle of the week and your friends have no sense of adventure, you have to do what you want, ha!

Yes! That's great! That's even better than mine, lol, by 6 rows! It's super close to the stage - See my avatar? If they have the catwalks, THAT's roughly how close you will be!!! Is it an aisle or are you squished between others?

Dude i have no idea. lol! its seat 21. So I'm guessing it's between people. Where were you sitting at the toyota center?

Mmm, that could be an aisle seat... Obviously 1 is, and that's what I have. I'm just not sure if 1 starts closest to the stage or it's closer to Section 8 (hoping it's closer to the stage!). Either way it's good I guess.
Toyota Center My friend and I were sitting Section 105 Row 5 Seats 1&2. That's how that pic got taken, since the Houston Chronicle took it from somewhere on the floor when Chris was on the catwalk! We were :shocked2: when we were browsing the paper the next day since we were dead center in the photo behind Chris's head, ha!

EDIT: Chris's big bum is blocking you out in the unedited pic I have in my avi, but I think I see you in the other two of the pics, but barely... how do i post pix on here?!?!?

Lol! wow that's awesome!! My cousin and I were in floor B row 14 but amazingly I found 2 empty seats in row 5! I was so close to getting Johnny's guitar pick but someone beat me:\. Oh well to think I was 5 rows away from my favorite band in the world!!! :)
I hope I have a good view from my current seat:)

Well my friend Coldplay has 5 members, the 5th being Phil Harvey. Phil was first manager of the band and he has been a longtime friend of the boys, not to mention that he is HOT ;)!! lol

If you want to sell them by that price, go to TicketsNow or someplace for scalpers :angry:
FYI: the scalper prices for the Tampa show are ridiculous. My seat (section 7, 100-level) is being sold for like $600 :shocked2:

Where did the people that have tickets buy them from? Did you pay any other fees like shipping? Because I'm not sure if I should buy concert tickets at all. I'm also not sure if I do end up buying tickets, should I buy the pit tickets or the seats to the side. I'm pretty short, so I'm probably not going to see the stage if I'm in the pit. I'm so confused.

Woo-hoo! San Antonio!
I have tix for the Dallas show later in the tour, and I'm definitely going to San Antonio as well.
Hopefully the AT&T Center is friendly this time around. I went to see Neil Diamond (don't laugh) back in November at the AT&T Center, and security was confiscating every cell phone and camera taking photos. There wasn't a flash bulb or cell phone to be found in the place after the first few songs. I have never seen security that tight at a concert in my life. So hopefully they'll lighten up for Coldplay.
Another presale scramble tomorrow...woo-hoo!

Does anyone know how the seating numbers go for the non-floor seats? Do they start at seat 1 by the stage and stay the same for each section, or is it section specific? I'm trying to figure out where seat 1 vs. the end seat is for each section...

Ok, so I called the ATT Center and found out how the seating goes, so this might help others too... The seat numbers go from left to right if you are facing the sections. So on the LEFT side, seat #1 is furthest from the stage (GRRRR!!!) and on the RIGHT side, seat #1 is closest from the stage. I'm still super happy with the ticket I have, but was hoping it was the 'closer to the stage seat' lol! I guess this way I'll at least have a more full-on view of the stage...

I might be wrong, but I think that means you are on the further away side of the section (like I am) since you are on the opposite side to me :\
Maybe there is a possiblity they don't know what they are talking about (fingers crossed) and we are BOTH right next to the stage, lol! Oh well, either way, they are both great seats, so I'm sure we'll be fine, ha!
I am thinking you might have an aisle seat too though... all the aisle seats I've seen so far in certain sections ended in ones (1, 11, 21, etc.)

LOL, I dunno, they are just easy to get in and out of and you can get a better view if someone is obstructing your view, etc. Also, when they are near the stage, they are great!
On another topic, does anyone know about parking at ATT Center? I didn't get the parking when I bought the ticket, and realised maybe I should have. Do you have to get it in advance, or are there other options??
sa_spurs_tx
26-03-2009, 05:04 AM
I'm sure parking will be around the 12 dollar range. Parking for concerts at the AT&T center isnt that bad.

On another note, yay for Snow Patrol being the opening act! It's going to be a great concert. I'm glad I decided to do both the shows. Also, I don't feel so crazy driving 3 hours to another concert now since I'm getting to see one of my other favourite bands. Plus they won't be coming to Houston...

Quick question... I know I read somewhere here or on the Houston or Dallas threads that upgrades can happen at the show, courtesy of the roadies or production staff. Just wondering... how did that happen? Were you there early, in your not-great seats?
I've just gotten tix for the SA show for my sister and me (her first Coldplay show), but as I'd already gotten tix for Houston and Dallas, I had to settle for just being in the building. So we have awful tickets- directly opposite the stage, in the VERRRRY back, upper section. Do they go that far back to upgrade fans? Based on what you've seen at other shows, do we have a teeny tiny chance of that or of being anywhere near the remote stage?
Thanks!

They have been known to do upgrades at the shows for fans in the cheap seats. Usually, they grab people on their way to their seats and ask them random Coldplay questions. I'm not really sure of the specifics, but I know it has happened to many people last year. You might want to post in the general forum to see what others can tell you...

I'm in section 10... have a pretty good seat on the side closer to Section 8 so I should be at least along the catwalk, but Houston (102, row H) and Dallas (PIT) blow it away :)

I know you can download it, but we all want hard copies. If anyone wants to help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated and I would pay for the shipping of the cds to me and if anyone can get me a box of cds I'll pay $50 plus the cost of shipping (like through paypal or ebay or something). my friends and I really really really want a cd, (as do a bunch of my friends' friends that live in other countries). I would be very very greatful. Let me know if you can help me out.

Are you suggesting that people going to the shows should grab a handfull so we can get you and your friends some?
(I hope not because that means someone who paid for a ticket would likely be shortchanged. )
On the other hand there is a thread where nice people are asking nicely for one extra nice copy from a really nice show-goer. Maybe you want to visit that nice thread and get in line for one.:)

when I was at the show in camden, they had so many boxes it wasn't funny. they most certainly won't run out. but yes, I was hoping someone can help me out. I lost the one that I had gotten at the show in Camden and my friend actually had grabbed a box which he stupidly left on top of his car and drove away with on top.

02-06-2009, 12:14 AM

Coldplay graces S.A. for first time
By Hector Saldaña - Express-News Staff Writer
Chris Martin is an extraordinarily talented and affable chap. Just don't ask the singer how Coldplay became the biggest band in the world.
"It makes my brain melt," said Martin, who said he really doesn't agree with the premise. Not to mention that a recent Bruce Springsteen concert blew him away and reminded him pecking order is irrelevant.
"It really doesn't matter who's biggest today."
Coldplay makes its first San Antonio appearance at AT&T Center on Wednesday. Snow Patrol opens.
OK, so maybe the Grammy-winning band didn't start out wanting to rule the world, but how does one handle it when it happens?
"I have a hard time believing it," Martin said. "Maybe it's because I'm British or because I'm too religious. I feel lucky."
But quite astute is Martin's reasoning on how it happened: "When Radiohead went less commercial."
Coldplay is known for epic-sounding albums and big hits "Yellow," "Clocks," "In My Place," "Speed of Sound," "Fix You," "The Hardest Part" and "Viva La Vida," as well as for Martin's marriage to Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow.
There was also that blip last year when rock guitarist Joe Satriani sued the band for copyright infringement, claiming that "Viva La Vida" was too close to his 2004 song "If I Could Fly." Coldplay has denied the charge.
But Brian Eno's work on "Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends" — this year's album of the year — elevated an already Grammy-winning band that includes guitarist Jon Buckland, drummer Will Champion and bassist Guy Berryman.
"It's like going back to school and tearing up all the rules," said Martin. "He guides you down the path. He doesn't care about 'Yellow.' "
Martin acknowledged Eno's ways took some getting used to.
"He doesn't treat you like you're famous," he said.
Martin's kept that angelic voice in shape for the last 10 years with the help of "a funny lady in England named Mary."
Onstage, Coldplay brings "a spectacle" that Martin says depends on a huge crew.
"What worries me is that I don't know how to plug anything in anymore," said Martin. "I'm powerless."
But he'll take the entourage over the old days. "I can play piano at home any time," he said.
One thing you can't do at home is getting to hang around with Jay-Z and Paul McCartney.
"Jay-Z is one of my musical heroes. He's a personal hero the way he conducts himself," said Martin.
About their musical association: "It's part of my education."
McCartney is another kettle of fish. They crossed paths at the Grammy Awards where the band performed in colorful outfits reminiscent of the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper"-era uniforms.
"He's almost a saintly figure in England," said Martin. "It's hard to not think of him as a mythical figure."
Martin joked that Sir Paul is a little grudging with doling out praise.
"He'll give you a nod and doesn't leave," said Martin. "He called us a 'good little band.' "
Hey, isn't that how McCartney describes the Beatles?
"Yeah, I know," said Martin.

As long as it's a regular point and shoot, you shouldn't have a problem taking it in. Some security guards are not nice though, so i'd still put it in a pocket or whatever and not have it in plain sight.

LOL, well luck really! I got the SA ticket a few hours after the pre-sale began since I didn't know about it and was leaving for England the next day. The Houston one was really luck, since I pulled up Sec. 102 row DD in the pre-sale but didn't get it thinking there would be better in the general. Then there wasn't, ha. Then I found Sec. 102 row EE on Ebay and got those. Then one day I just decided to look for some reason and got Sec. 102 row H! It also helps I'm going by myself I guess... Crappy friends I went with last year don't want to go on a weeknight, blah. :dozey::rolleyes:

San Antonio should brace itself.
It’s not often that a rock act hits town at the height of its creative power and with the album of the year Grammy tucked under its arm.
Such is the scenario when Coldplay arrives at AT&T Center on Wednesday, June 10, to promote Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends.
Snow Patrol opens.
Not all that long ago, Green Day, with American Idiot, Norah Jones, with Come Away With Me, Alejandro Escovedo, with Real Animal, and even a very young Britney Spears, with her Catholic schoolgirl swagger, rocked San Antonio’s world with vital intensity onstage — as only artists on that kind of roll can do.
Coldplay frontman Chris Martin described his current tour as “a spectacle” befitting a band considered by many to be the biggest in the world.
It’s a steamroller driven by Martin and his bandmates, guitarist Jon Buckland, drummer Will Champion and bassist Guy Berryman.
Which means that for the band’s first visit to S.A., fans will be bombarded with majestic art-rock and epic pop, lasers, giant bouncing rubber yellow balls (for “Yellow”), unplugged rock moments, colorful Sgt. Pepper’s-influenced outfits and a free CD giveaway.
Not everyone loves it. The New York Times calls them the most insufferable band in the world.
“It really doesn’t matter who’s biggest today,” said Martin in a telephone interview in May, adding that worrying about who is No. 1 “makes my brain melt.”
But pop world domination — in the realm of U2, Metallica, Hannah Montana, Green Day, Jonas Brothers and The Rolling Stones — comes at a price.
Loss of privacy is one. Martin spends much of his life with actress wife Gwyneth Paltrow dodging paparazzi.
There’s also the matter of rock guitarist Joe Satriani claiming that Coldplay’s song “Viva La Vida” bears too close a resemblance to his “If I Could Fly.”
In December, Satriani sued for copyright infringement.
“We’ve never had a hit that big before. So I don’t know if it’s to do with it’s the only song that’s been that famous,” Martin told the Philadelphia Inquirer.
At the end of the day, Martin wouldn’t change a thing. “I feel lucky,” he said.
San Antonio, brace yourselves for Coldplay
The San Antonio set list will include some of the band’s biggest hits, including “Clocks,” “The Hardest Part,” “Viva La Vida, “Yellow,” “In My Place,” “Glass of Water,” “Politik,” “Fix You” and “The Scientist.”
There’s even a cover of The Monkees’ “I’m a Believer.”
