Come, sit, and wait anxiously in front of your radio for hours to try to win Coldplay tickets! They play the Coldplay commercial every hour, but it's mostly every other hour that they add the bit that says "Call now" to the commercial. So generally, the callings are held every two hours. :)

 

I've spent 150+ hours trying to win Muse tickets in the past so I sort of know how this thing works... here's some tips!

• your greatest chances of winning are at off hours like midnight or early morning. Sometimes they have callings at 2AM. Not all the time though.
  
• have more than one phone!
  
• listening to the net broadcast may lessen your chances of winning, especially during peak listening hours. (duh)
  
• don't give up calling for at least a few minutes! Sometimes, well after the calling cue plays, you can get through and they say "sorry, you're caller 17" which makes no sense at all!
  
• stay sane!
  
• Click here to listen to the net broadcast!

Also, I think the tickets are available for out of state people, but I'm fairly sure that the "House" concert is only available to SoCal residents. I could be wrong.

Ah c'mon. There was a thread similiar at muse.mu and it got a couple of thousand posts.

 

Are there no southern california musers here? :uhoh:

 

And BTW, the next calling time is in 12 minutes or so I think. O.o

I'm cheering for you to win them, Alyssa, since your sis got to go to Kimmel. Good luck!

Really cool of you to give advice to fellow fans :) Good luck Alyssa, I hope you win tickets!

PLAY YOUR LIVING ROOM?!?!?!?!?

 

i. would. die. :dead:

 

too bad i don't live in southern cali. oh MAN, that would be the high point of my life. seriously, that's probably my ultimate CP dream.

wow. a concert in my living room? my mom would hate that they'd ruin the carpet

 

 

 

good luck alyssa!

You guys don't have to live in SoCal to get the tix, I don't think. :) Only for the living room concert, haha.

 

I remember a guy from NorCal got a hold of some tickets by calling while listening to the net broadcast, but he ended up not going, since that particular festival was only for SoCal residents only. :( But almost all of the concerts don't have residential restrictions. If you live in Arizona, Nevada, or you're willing to make the trip from the East Coast... go ahead and try to win tix! Haha.

 

Whee! They're playing Viva La Vida. :)

Alyssa, will you be trying for tickets on Saturday?

I am in So Cal as well. I won't be waiting around to win from KROQ, however, too lazy!

They just played the little promo for it, and I called, fiiinally got through, and then the guy said they aren't giving out tickets/taking names just yet, and hung up on me. (pfft) Anyone else have that problem? I talked to someone earlier, and he said it was going on noww, so. I think I got a grouchy man this time around.

 

How great is this contest though *spins*

 

M.

The "Promo" and the "Call Now" commercials are pretty much identical, except one has Chris (or was it Jonny?) actually saying "CALL NOW"--it's a bit easy to get confused!

 

And I'm not sure if I'll be trying for tickets, since I don't have much money. :( I just bought a new drum kit for my birthday so I'm pretty low on cash.

good luck alyssa

 

 

coldplay playing in my living room.. I'd die :dead:

wait, where are the forum tickets going on sale? where?!?!?!?

 

WHEN WAS THIS DATE ANNOUNCED?D?!?! I MUST SEE COLDPLAY!

it was announced in a radio show yesterday (breakfast with coldplay at kroq or something like that)

Yup they announced it on Kevin and Bean the other day. :) July 15 baybee!

 

Get ready to call BTW. O.o

I've put the number on speed dial.

*grins*

They've got rather filthy mouths btw, I don't often listen to their station. It's great.

 

M.

Forum tix go on sale on Saturday at 10:00 a.m.

fuck....not allowed to use the house phone! guess i'll just have to rely on my cellphone. :angry:

 

 

aaaaggghhh all i want is tickets to the concert! i don't mind too much about the house gig (cause then i'd have to meticulously clean the whole house until it's spotless!).

 

*edit*

and they're not going to step into my room. it's too embarassing xD

^Awha :)

 

I'm not sure how they would all fit if they played at my place. But there's a big schoolyard across my street. Concert from the jungle gym? That would be cosy.

 

M.

Darn. I got through, someone said sum'n, then they hung up...?

 

I was using a house phone so I doubt the call was lost. How rude!

Ringing again...

 

They're just gonna keep me on the line again for 10 useless minutes like they always do, I bet. -_-

They hung up on me as well.

Hmph.

 

M.

 

edit: oh, it sounds like sooomeone got through then. aw well. next time *rubs hands together mischieviously*

i got through but they said "sorry we've got a winner."

:bigcry:

"KROQ, we already have a winner"

 

2nd time through. :(

Oh also--someone ask until what time the ticket giveaways are gonna be today. I'm too shy to ask, plus I'm gonna forget. :laugh3:

tried that, but the guy would only say "keep listening as we will announce your next chance to win"

 

:angry:
