The vibes in Auckland are bit more wet wet wet, than Coldplay, for the band's second concert at Eden Park tonight. It's been pelting down all day, but the gigs a sell out. The British pop-rock band is expected to bring 150,000 fans into the central city over its three night residency, with neighbouring business glad of the extra foot traffic in what's been a tough year for many. Auckland Transport is putting on up to 100 extra buses from the North Shore and City Centre, as well as additional capacity across the rail network for the night. Eden Park boss Nick Sautner spoke to Lisa Owen.
