    HOLY SHIT I WON GUYS!!!!
    Awesome!  Congrats.

    So how were you listening and at what point in the song did you call?  This would be helpful!
    Thanks to whoever posted "12:29 PM GO!" just started calling after that.  I can't freaking believe this!  Used a landline. Cell never went through.
    Congrats! A friend of mine was also on the line and heard you talking to Andrew. 
    Did the phone ring at all?

    ETA: just saw your comment. So it went from dead air to someone on the line.

    Congratulations Dan!!!   You are the one that got through right before they started the contest.   They had you on the air!    You must have a direct line to the XM studio! :)

    Thank you everyone for the congrats and notes. My heart is still racing. So surreal.

    Some extra color for those strategizing: I called from a work landline and on 3rd attempt I just waited about a minute after the phone read “connected” (was tempted to hang up since so much silence but just held on...). Then the program manager picked up and verified my info, etc (that some of you now have 😉).

    I also got through last week during FF using same landline and spoke to Rob (was on air).  I think the wired connection may help, even though I’m sure my work has VoIP (web based).

    I wish I could bring someone here (and Jed I certainly owe you so let’s meetup at a show) but I have to bring my wife to this one (big fan too - she will hit 15 shows this tour). Pics / vids / stories will definitely be shared.

    So grateful to this band and this community (and Sirius).

    Does it matter if I call but the subscription is under my wife’s name?
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    I think in your case, with 5 kids, they assume your wife’s pretty much in charge of everything with her name on it.   ;)

    Damn, I’m going to be tied up on calls for most of tomorrow’s window. And if I start treating my family during the 5-10 pm slots the way I treat my job during the morning slots, I’ll end up divorced and looking for a +1 for MSG.

    Dude, unreal! I was listening to you on FF the other day. I called in and they were going to put me on but I think they ran out of time. Congrats!

    I tend to agree with this, at least until I win a pair and instantly become convinced that it’ll be a 3.5 hour career-spanning classic that fulfills all of my wildest PJ dreams.
