U2 KROQ Show

[romi]

I got in and it rang 13 times b4 going into a busy tone. I guessvthst means I was caller 22 or something, they got a winner, and then hung up the other lines?

Yeah usually radio stations will "busy out" the remaining lines when they have a winner.

 

[romi]

They just told me I was caller 21

 

[LemonMelon]

Man, I'd rather just get the busy signal.

Its like when you hold out a Milk Bone for the dog and pull it away at the last second to hear his teeth clack. That sucks.

It does kind of feel like a good sign that more and more people are getting through though

I was caller 13 at the top of the hour, first time I got through since Monday! Not giving up!

I wonder if the more casual fans are getting bored/worn out from checking in every hour (I know I am). I agree though, I'll take this as a good sign

 

[ForgettableFire]

Let them get bored

 

[pepokiss]

I entered the contest online. That's my only chance, I think pray for me

 

[deep]

ok, you and willie nelson

 

[rosephile]

Good luck, all. TAKE ME WITH YOU.

Thanks. Got my work schedule figured out, but I have to sell my tix for LA1 in order to go to this (I had LA1 & LA2 tix, but can't manage 3 shows in 1 week). Going to the June 3rd show now instead of LA1. Good luck everyone - I hope to see some of you at the Roxy!

Ya... you all better Periscope this show!

 

[mtnfox]

They better come out with it for Android real quick...

 

[DRay9911]

hope you're allowed to bring in phones/cameras

the stones are playing at the fonda theater tonight and their periscope page has been showing people picking up tickets, wristbands and a note that says 'no phones and cameras'.

 

[mtnfox]

Good point.

 

[rosephile]

So the phone stream is about 2 min behind the computer/web stream. How far behind is that stream from the on-air? I get there Sunday...

Meerkat is available for Android...

 

[DRay9911]

what i don't like about meerkat is you need a twitter account in order to use it.

I think I read earlier in the thread that the computer/web stream is 2 minutes behind the live radio broadcast.
If the phone stream is 2 minutes behind that, I guess the phone stream is 4 minutes behind the live radio broadcast.
