I'm going in a group of 5 people...but unfortunately we couldn't get any grouped tickets so we're all sitting in different sections :'(

LFDianne · 01-05-2012, 04:05 AM

There IS an X-stage! A small ramp, but it's there! Woo Hoo!

l0wxo2 · 01-05-2012, 04:06 AM

YAY

Wonder if there will be a C stage as well then?

I'm sure there will be. Dang, this place is HUGE. My seats for tomorrow are right in the center, if you see between those two white canopies, I'm in the section in front of them. Then on Wednesday, Im in the section in front of that section, but more to the left. Not quite the 4th row we had Saturday, but oh well...It will be fun to see a different view

l0wxo2 · 01-05-2012, 04:26 AM

You'll be close either way.... I hope the C-stage is near me. I feel like my seats are so far away.

fabianestrada · 01-05-2012, 05:06 AM

So excited!!! My first concert and who better to see than Coldplay!!!!!!!

coldplayluv · 01-05-2012, 05:14 AM

Did anyone who bought a VIP ticket get any of the extra items that came with the ticket yet, like the t-shirt? I was just curious what the t-shirt looks like.

Nope. We didn't get anything yet. We ordered the tshirts the day we got the email, but Lauren had VIP in San Jose and she got a lanyard with souvenir tag, some stickers and her wristband early. I was hoping for the shirt but oh well.

l0wxo2 · 01-05-2012, 05:39 AM

I still haven't gotten the shirt in the mail from San Jose lol. Was hoping to wear it to the show Friday. Oh well.

aschall · 01-05-2012, 06:41 AM

Thanks for the pic LFDianne! Hooray for the X-stage!

I'm excited to go but this concert is more for my Dad. I introduced Coldplay to him and he has slowly grown to like them (he's kind of picky when it comes to music. When I play my iPod in the car with him I try to pepper in the best of Coldplay as much as i can to try to win him over).

but, I digress... XSTAGE YAY!!!!

AVSean · 01-05-2012, 10:29 PM

Great Shot LFDianne of the venue! Can't wait for Friday night. Seats in the Garden boxes!

Been itching to see them again since the night on the UCLA tennis courts. Anyone else get the VIP package in the garden boxes? Wonder what the VIP "host" really means. Someone to fetch bottles of wine at a premium price from the on-site store??

gotcheese2768 · 01-05-2012, 11:25 PM

what is the xstage you all speak of.. i can't really tell but maybe i'm just not looking well enough at the picture.

l0wxo2 · 01-05-2012, 11:28 PM

^ Erick it's the little ramp you see that that is coming out from the middle of the stage. It's normally much longer but they can't really do that here.

We have the VIP tickets in the Garden box too. I have no idea what the VIP "host" is but I imagine it's nothing special. It would have been nice to to be able to attend the VIP party before but I just couldn't stomach $500 a ticket.

Exactly! I figured we'd have to purchase a TON of drinks to make up for the ~$230 difference in ticket prices....
