raquelita Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I already won tickets Quote Link to post Share on other sites
leatherman Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I think it's awesome that they're doing this and I've been listening to dave fm all weekend trying to win tickets, but I'd be a little more excited if I thought I really had a chance of getting in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raquelita Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 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!

be my demon Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hodie Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 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.

be my demon Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Very cool any details? Please someone help so i dont have to turn on the radio 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 . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rhinomagic Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Announcement @ 1.33 PM that another chance to win is up in the next 15 minutes. Good Luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raquelita Posted June 12, 2007 Author Share Posted June 12, 2007 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!!

leatherman Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dda0002 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 been trying while at work with cell phone and work phone and this morning for 2nd, 3rd, and 10th. The other day, Sunday, I think, got 14th, but that's the closest so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

awatt Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 The worst part of all this is having to listen to moronic djs and a lot of crap. I stopped listening to the radio when I -- oh, the contest is on right now!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
awatt Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 No luck..... At least they're playing Tom Petty instead of Lenny Kravitz! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rhinomagic Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 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.

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?

Does anyone know if they do late night (after 10 PM) giveaways? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
