Coldplay withdraw Glasgow tickets printed on wrong paper

Coldplay's December Glasgow tickets have been withdrawn because they were printed on the wrong paper, with DF Concerts saying Ticketmaster will replace tickets bought directly.

Coldplay have withdrawn tickets for a December gig in Glasgow because - wait for it - they were printed on the wrong paper. Not sure what was wrong with it, but whatever. A cynic might say the withdrawal of tickets is a clever ruse to mess with those people who have bought their tickets via those unpopular-with-some secondary ticketing websites, because as promoters DF Concerts say "we are confident that Ticketmaster will be able to replace all tickets for their customers in advance of the gigs in December, however, it will be more difficult to replace tickets originally purchased through Ticketmaster and then sold on through the secondary ticket market". For those who have bought or sold touted tickets for the concert the promoters said: "[Secondary] ticket holders should contact their point of purchase. We urge these secondary sources to look after their customers at this time".
