They said earlier today there would be only 100 people at this thing. I've got a better chance of winning the lotto I think...

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

99X and Dave FM both? wow!!!

I entered the 99X listening party for the album at Fado's.

Someone from this board is bound to win.

WXRT, 93.1, in Chicago is playing HTDAAB over and over again. They have replaced their "New Releases Tuesday" with U2's day this week.

It is distracting hearing commercials every 2 or 3 songs, but it is good to hear it. They will be playing the album in entirety at 9 pm CT for those living near Chicago.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Do they stream from their webpage?

no

K-rock has no web stream... you have to be in their listening range in order to win...

When I go into work tommorow, i'm tellin' the ladies who work in my office that next week they're just gonna have to suck it up and listen to K-rock, 'cause i'm having it on the whoooole time... i need to win this... i need to i need to i need to... 4 days before my birthday? a how to dismantle an atomic bomb listening party WITH the band?

 

[bort269]

I was caller #6 on Live 105's contest in San Francisco!

Caller #10 won and is going to NY to see them AND he won the U2 iPod with the 400+ songs as well!

Ryan, if you are out there... YOU ARE A LUCKY BASTARD!!

92.9 Dave FM here in Atlanta is also having a contest:

'BCN in Boston is also having a contest over the weekend.

WWWwwooowwww



I am Sooooo Glad I happen to catch this.....!

I do listen to K-Rock as 1 of 3 rock stations that plays some stuff I like alot old & new. But i spend most of time currently listening to Air America { Jennine & Sam on Air America have the best 80'sbumper music!}, so I might have caught it, but chance I might not have.

So I guess I'll go on a K-rock diet next week, and listen to Air America for bit after some one has just won {then it'll be a while before the next winner} or on commercials.

I did win tix to see the Magical Mystery Tour movie {beatles} {a looonngg time a go }. So we had a theartre filled with Beatle fans.

This would be waaaayyyy more exciting !!!

I hope all of you in the other cities having the conest will win!

Wouldn't in be nice if all we Pleabans in/near the New York area won.

QB maybe something still will come up for you .
