Did anyone get tickets for the Tampa, Florida show on 9-14??

gatorsamiam · 22-05-2005, 01:02 PM

Hello all..

Did anyone get tickets already for the Tampa, Florida show on9-14-05??

I went to Ticketmaster online to see what the prices might be ($ 35 to $ 70)...and out of all the shows listed...the Tampa show was showing as being on sale NOW. All the other USA shows were still showing a June 4 sale date.

Frantically I click on the link to buy tickets...and none to be found! Am I dreaming or did my worst nightmare just happen???

Ticketmaster was supposed to "alert" me when tickets in my area when on sale....and unfortunately it did not.

Hopefully I am not jumping to conclusions but I have a very bad feeling I won't be seeing Coldplay in September!

PLEASE HELP!

The same thing happened to me for the Woodlands show on September 24.

Rubbish.

Hey, I got tickets for Tampa and West Palm through the pre-sale!

gatorsamiam · 22-05-2005, 11:56 PM

Congrats ColdplayingKris...

i didn't get mine to this point...i guess it won't happen unless they e-mail me by tomorrow..

how long were you a member of coldplay.com when you registered for the pre-sale? i only joined a couple of weeks and my thinking since i was a newer member..i didn't get a higher priority..

I also sent in for Tampa presale and have yet to hear back and I signed up to coldplay.com years ago. I know that tickets have not gone on sale yet so don't worry. June 4th is still the general sale day. I'm still hopeful that I will get an email soon though.

gatorsamiam · 23-05-2005, 02:38 AM

thanks Colduser for the update...

go to ticketmaster.com...click on the Tampa link...and see what I see...hopefully there will be enough tickets...i'm not familiar with the Ford Amphitheater...how many people can it pack?

thanks for the update..

colduser · 23-05-2005, 02:59 AM

Gatorsamiam, I believe the amphitheatre holds 20,000+. I see what you mean on the ticketmaster site in regards to Tampa. I think it's some type of glitch not only becasue you can't even try to search for tickets but because it said in the release of the concert cities that all tickets but for a texas date would go on sale on June 4th. I know for sure that Tampa tickets have not gone on sale yet. We'll have to wait and see and I still have not received a presale email.

gatorsamiam · 23-05-2005, 03:39 AM

thanks again Colduser for the new update.... i figured it was a glitch with the system...it just scared me that it was for the one show i could attend! lol

later

djlotek · 23-05-2005, 04:40 AM

I have extra Tampa tix, but I need West Palm Tix badly.. wondering if someone on here can work out a trade lol.

I have been a member since mid-2003, so about 2 years, however, I don't think seniority was an issue here. I believe it was just random drawing! I really hope you are able to get your tix, perhaps if I don't end up using them, I can sell them to you! We will see.... The West Palm show was the main one I needed and I got it! I'm kinda hoping I'll still get Atlanta b/c I have friends up there!

colduser · 23-05-2005, 02:15 PM

I'm starting to worry about the Tampa show. I still have not received a presale email and on the official website for the amphitheatre they have no news at all on Coldplay coming in september. I wish I knew what was going on. I figure that I missed out on the lottery for this show but part of me is wondering if it even ocurred for this show at all. Very strange indeed!!

gatorsamiam · 23-05-2005, 04:34 PM

I'm sure the website for the Amphitheatre will be updated. Maybe that's why the Ticketmaster glitch? I still haven't received my e-mail regarding the pre-sale (Monday 11:30am) so I'm sure I won't get it by now.

keep me updated!

colduser · 23-05-2005, 05:45 PM

I still can't believe we didn't get presale emails. I didn't think that the tampa show would have had a huge response right out of the gate but it looks like I am mistaken. I still feel like something fishy is going on with regards to this presale.

gatorsamiam · 23-05-2005, 07:26 PM

good call...if you hear anything about the Tampa show..let me know! i'll let you know on my end if i hear any news...
