Atlanta ~ Dave FM Circle of Friends


Recommended Posts

I haven't heard all the details yet, only that there will be a private show and you can only get in by winning tickets on FM 92.9. Anyone else know more? Regardless of lack of details, I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to know the venue - I saw a circle of friends at Treesound studios, it was fantastic & I would love to see Wilco there! The tickets are hard to get.... but it will be worth it (if we can win) to have a small audience once inside. This is probably the closest I will ever come to attending a living room show!

I tried to look for more details on this, but of course DaveFM has no information on their website regarding any contests. I suppose we'll have to listen to garner more info as it becomes available.

 

Also, are they still giving away tix to the show at Chastain? I already have tickets, but I would love to get in the pit if possible.

Hopefully this won't be the case here, but an Annapolis radio station gave away a "private show" before a 930 club Wilco show, and it ended up being that they got to listen to soundcheck. Not that listening to soundcheck isn't a fun thing, but we've had some pretty fantastic private shows among VC folks, and I wouldn't bet money that this is one of those.

Very cool any details?

 

Please someone help so i dont have to turn on the radio :thumbup

 

 

Unfortunately you will have to listen at some point. It is billed as a "secret show"... they don't tell you when the call-in will be until about 15 minutes before it starts and they also give no indication to when the next round is. I called in at 4:08 PM ET today and had no luck :ohwell .

I was having a great week until I found out about this show and found out how freakin' hard it is to get tickets!! I saw Guster last year with the circle of friends, freaked out trying to get a ticket in, and ended up with 8 because it wasn't hard to get one. So far I've been caller 9 and 13 (out of 20), when I'm lucky enough to even get through.... getting closer at least...

 

For an "unknown" band on this station, Wilco sure does create a TON of phone calls for their contest!! Maybe dave fm can take a lesson from the phone overload and play more Wilco!!

That's the truth. I've been listening to a ton of dave fm trying to win these tickets and I haven't heard a bit of wilco, other than the commercial that lets you know it's time to call in. The other morning I was caller 18 (out of 20) and was crushed. Since then, i haven't even been able to get through.

There was another opportunity just now, but I can never seem to get through.

 

Is there a delay between the live FM transmission and the webcast? I know sometimes there can be a 7 (or more) second difference. Just wondering if I'm at a disadvantage listening online.

Oh yes. I listened to the webcast through my headphones and had the radio on at the same time. The webcast is significantly delayed, though I don't remember how long... ~10 seconds maybe?

Thank you. I have to hope they don't answer 20 callers during the 10-second delay. ;)

 

Does anyone know if they do late night (after 10 PM) giveaways?
