GOT A HEAD FULL OF DREAMS BUT AN EMPTY POCKET? HERE'S HOW TO SAFE FOR COLDPLAY'S CONCERT

- By Vinz Lamorena

Let’s be real, you’re not gonna sell a kidney to be able to afford one of those Coldplay tickets. The pre-selling of seats started two days ago and you must be panicking that it’ll be an instantly sold-out show.

Take it easy and calm down, you still have enough time to set aside your 13th month pay and/or convince your parents and friends to lend you some money so you can enjoy a good concert view. Saving money is a Herculean task nowadays, especially when shopping comes easy with a click of a button.

But you want that concert ticket, right? And you’d probably want to experience that once in a lifetime night spent under a sky full of stars and psychedeli­c lights, singing your heart out to “Yellow,” “The Scientist” and “Magic.”

Coldplay ranted in a song that “nobody said it’s gonna be this hard,” but we’re telling you straight up that the next few weeks would require determinat­ion, discipline and a whole lot of effort. But trust us, it’s all about delayed gratificat­ion.
