    it's just ringing and ringing! what do I do?!?!
    In the past that has meant they turned off the phones cause they got a winner. But I usually just let it ring the full five minutes till it times out. 
    I just timed out at 5. What a terrible feeling lol
    Same here.  gutted

    I had 2 phones ringing at start of song and timed out after DTE ended. I was shocked no pick up. Thought I’d at least be a caller number under 10. 
    Caller 16 on first play.

    I hear what you're saying and it does suck to be #21, but I just want to get through so I can at least feel like I have a chance. It's really frustrating when you don't even "get a chance to play". But, I'll be back at it tomorrow. Congrats to the winners!

    Best “It’s Okay” ever. Always gives me the chills. Lucky enough to have seen it live.  Always gets me.
    Absolutely. 
    I was there also.  I remember his putting his foot on the monitor and grabbing the piece of paper with the lyrics on it.  still gives me chills.

    I was caller 21 Friday night. It played over and over in my mind all weekend. It's also the only time I've gotten through. talk about the worst feeling. GUTTED! knowing you are so close, so close to one of the most epic concerts ever.... I keep replaying this and that. I screamed NOOOOOOOO when they said 21 and the guy laughed and hung up...

    How long after the song started playing did you get through at #21?  Trying to figure out when to give up on hearing “All Circuits Are Busy” again and again!

    Usually within 10 minutes. Most of us have been calling between 10-15 minutes.

    At least for me, today felt faster, For the second play today, I heard the promo playing online around 11:52. I started calling and got caller 9 at 11:54. Caller 17 posted at 11:56.

    Last week I heard Alive on terrestrial radio a couple hours after one of the SiriusXM time windows and I flinched.

    This morning, when they played Go on PJRadio, it hit me that this is the third week I've been "less than productive" 5 hours each day.

    Ok all, here is what i have taken away from the last two weeks of this contest. Not sure if any of it matters, it's all probably just boils down to luck but a few things...
    * I have been listening on Alexa. I linked my siriusxm account to it. She may be a few seconds off from the car feed, but not by much at all. I would hear the promo, get a text message ready to send to my group to start calling, hit send on first note and then dial. 
    * 75% of my calls are dead silence followed by the do,do, do we're sorry your call cant be completed at this time- i hang up as soon as i here the do, do, do and redial. 
    *another 20% of the calls are dead silence, followed by a user busy and busy signal, i quick hit the call back button on iphone. 
    * a few just ring and ring for 5 minutes then it cuts you off.  I think this happens once they have the winner on line and are just clearing the lines. 
    * a few times i got through. Got a number 2, 8, 13, 18 and one someone answered and just hung up. All those times i heard music playing (whatever song was on at the moment for about 30 seconds before the person comes on and says my number and hangs up)
    * today, on my 11th attempt dialing it immediately rang and he picked up after about 4 rings and just said Hello. Didnt tell me if i won or not. I asked him if i was caller 22 and he said Maybe, have a few questions to ask you first.
    * asked me basic questions- age, address, DOB, can i be in NYC on 3/26, etc
    * I must have dialed PJ Radio 500plus times over the last two weeks.  average 30 tries per play.  I didn't give up until about 3 min after i would see someone post on here they were caller 21 or that they won. 
    * as of now, my brother is my plus one. He took 16 year old me to my first show- Randall's island 96 and created this obsession. 

    GOOD LUCK ALL. It can be done! Keep at it!
