Green Mamba Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Coevntry, Christ, my back garden. I feel sorry for the A444 allready. Terrible place to escape.
FingerFud Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Hehe my birthday . Still doubt i'll be able to go
MuseicalGreg Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I really should opt for this one since I live so close by I guess. But the Ricoh doesn't excite me as much as some other venues and cities.
muse2503 Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Have to be at uni all the way in Cornwall till the 31st of May so I can't afford to go home twice and book the tickets Why do I have to be here for the one year that Muse keep going to my area!
alit Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 This is my closest venue but its a week before half term otherwise I'd of gone:( Can't go as term time so no time off work - and if I went after work I can't get home after.
LeicesterBLISS Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Coventry is a hole. Can't decide between this as its local and the first stadium of the summer or the Saturday Emirates gig but that'll sell a lot quicker
bpsaint Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Hmmmmm, it's a toss up between here or the 2nd emirates date I think. North London will be a nightmare on the Saturday with the Champions League final. What's Coventry like gettin away from when there's a full crowd? Only ever done it for football and there's never huge attendances there. Quite surprised they didn't choose Villa Park instead.
MuseicalGreg Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I should be sensible and opt for this one since apparently the Ricoh is only 12.7 miles from my house. It would eliminate travel and parking costs. And I could even turn up really early and go all out for the barrier without even having a mad getting up stupidly early to travel day. Plus the first gig of the tour? Is that a tick in the pro column? Yes I'm just trying to convince myself.
Gareeh Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I still don't understand the existence of this gig. Baffling me.
dan. Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I still don't understand the existence of this gig. Baffling me. It covers the Midlands?
jumppogo Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Im from the Midlands... Id like to go to the Emirates. But dammit this one's closer and easier to get back home from
Gareeh Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Why not cover Scotland/Wales/Ireland then? A lot of Scottish people can't go cause it costs so much and you give people who will make the journey anyway a gig? (I can go, but I know plenty of people that can't)
Matty987 Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Why not cover Scotland/Wales/Ireland then? A lot of Scottish people can't go cause it costs so much and you give people who will make the journey anyway a gig? (I can go, but I know plenty of people that can't) I agree, but it's more about the lack of a gig in those places, rather than this one being unescessary.
alit Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I know this stadiums about 6 miles out of town but the central Travelodge is £28 at the mo that night by the train station. Hope that helps someone.
Gareeh Posted November 19, 2012 Posted November 19, 2012 I agree' date=' but it's more about the lack of a gig in those places, rather than this one being unescessary.[/quote'] I agree but Muse have now fallen into one of those bands who play T in the Park (there's a long list now) and thinks that satisfies the whole of Scotland's needs for a tour. I know Muse don't decide but it frustrates me so much. And then (no offence to anybody) they play Coventry? With 30,000 capacity?
transform Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 I'm just wondering what time will the gig end? need to plan for either train or hotel..
Matty987 Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 I'm just wondering what time will the gig end? need to plan for either train or hotel.. Most likely 11pm

I know Muse don't decide but it frustrates me so much. And then (no offence to anybody) they play Coventry? With 30,000 capacity? Coventry is rather a strange place to play, and is barely even worthy of being a stadium with its 30,000 capacity but it seems like, either the guys were fed up of playing the same stadiums as usual, or have had a few other gigs fall through, which could explain why somewhere like coventry was chosen to fill a gap from another gig that fell through. It does seem strange for them to miss Scotland out especially as it's practically confirmed they have no intentions of doing festivals next year, but there probably is more to it than just "we don't like Scotland"
dan. Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Ricoh is 40,000 for gigs. /pedantic Surprised they did leave out Scotland and Ireland though.
bpsaint Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Plenty of useful info on here people... http://www.footballgroundguide.com/coventry_city/index.htm
Taunton Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Choice of Ricoh or Emirates? Taking the juniors with us for their first gig :-) Am I right in thinking that all of Ricoh seating is unreserved (other than the hospitality section)?
Half Life Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Got to the end, got an error message. Now all I get is 'you have already used this presale code' on every gig. :'( Edit: I just got a ticket confirmation e-mail. Now I'm really confused.
