How stressed up can you be? Here is a story that can only happen to me!
I woke up this morning in panic: my account name at Gigs&Tours wasn't with my maiden name - like in my passport - but with my 'married' name!!! PANIC!!!! Allthough I REALLY knew that the one who bought the tickets, must attend to the show - no problem I thought - I would be there with my hubby. But I just didn't think and realise that my passport name is different. OK, think.... well, maybe we can do it on my hubbys name then, but then...his name is NOT Anita....! what if we cannot get in because of issues at the gate? HELP!
Fortunately there is the phone! And I did call to England early this morning: A few very helpfull people at Gigs & Tours helped me out and put the tickets on my maiden name - like in my passport. Unbelievable how many luck and help and love I experienced these days. Thank you G&T!!

Emma, I think you are saving my life here. Thank you so much! I can barely believe it. Row, you are way too kind and you've never owed me. We were just lucky. But I have to say you did a great job in starting this forum, which became an amazing place that helped save my life, so we're square. I'm still in denial. Am I actually going? I've gotten so used at failing to get tickets recently.

Is anyone not in denial?
I've been missing out on so much lately. Missed my other favourite band 4 (!) times this year and both Elbow and Arcade Fire are coming to Belgium in the middle of my exams.

^Sucks. Missing out is a sad feeling. Glad you were lucky now, thanks to this place. Good luck with your exams! I'm missing Arcade Fire this weekend as well. I had Pinkpop tickets for their day but got forced to sell them because of physical problems. I've had to miss Coldplay and other bands before for the same reason. But if there was any concert I could have picked, it would have been Coldplay in the friggin Royal Albert Hall. So it's all good.

I have only one problem. I realise I am very greedy, but my mother (Hetty, she's posted on Coldplaying a few times) wants to go as well. She's one of my best friends and we're going to London together, our hotel is booked. She's at least as big a Coldplay fan as I am. Half of our texts are pictures of Chris Martin spotted somewhere. (The other half are pics of Johnny Depp.) She says she's happy at least I get to go, but she deserves it just as much and I'm not as excited if she stays behind. Coldplay are a big part of why we became so close.
Of course I'll keep trying on Gigsandtours the next few weeks and we'll stalk the venue if necessary. But, if anyone hears of another spare for July 2nd somewhere, please let me know. We won't be sitting together but we have to go together.

Congrats to all who got tickets! Please bring a sign that reads, "Please play Ghost Story!" We all want to hear it live right?

Well thank you, I hate phoning people and I just called a grumpy English girl who pretended to check for me. Must have been the millionth desperate maniac she had to tell no, this time with an annoying Dutch accent.
She said there was no way tickets are going back on sale or orders get cancelled. (I didn't believe her.) This was Seetickets.
Then I called the RAH and the computer voice said Coldplay tickets were only sold at gigsandtours.com. The previous girl had scared me too much to continue calling after that.
