    What a day!  Was able to get through to Faithfull Forum on air (was “Dan from NY” in the office skipping meetings, on multiple phones, etc.) and due to the delay on Sirius app I couldn’t tell if tickets were already gone. And then the call ended and I lost audio so didn’t know that was the time to call. Oh well. Very cool, surreal experience!  Will keep trying.

    I heard you.  Congrats on getting through.  I was unsuccessful.
    i don’t think I’ll be getting much work done until this contest is over!

    All these Sirius events are open bar. Just another perk of getting in! 
    You know how small the seating is at the Apollo, people are going to be getting up every 5 min for a damn drink and get drunk and annoying.

    Dumb question time (it’s early forgive me):

    Is there a travel contest PLUS regular ticket give away? Regular ticket giveaway is via radio contest (and email entry?) on Sirius and Pandora?

    I don’t subscribe to either but have family members who do. Can I find a way for them to enter for me or do I free trial either and listen and call in?

    Lastly - can I line up at the Apollo day of for a minuscule chance to get in?
    At the phish one is Philly there was a line and 300 people got in

    im sure there will be one for this for tickets that get unclaimed right before the show 
    Same with Metallica. I don't know about 300. But there were fans complaining. And they got in

    I heard you (as I was attempting for the 19th time to get through...) and I was actually confused how did it work. At first I thought Rob and the staff would take calls and then give one of the callers the tickets. But Rob clarified it later saying that he/they will clear the lines and the 22nd person is the lucky one. 

    Your call was good though. I don't know if I were to get through what my reaction would be. And I've been next to Rob in quite a few shows.

    Thank so much - that really means a lot.  I’m a 40 year old Dad of 3 (with a sometimes high intensity job) and when they picked up yesterday my heart was pounding like a 6th grader on his first date. Was just happy I didn’t sound like an idiot!  Wish I would have known to start calling back, but getting through was awesome and was able to record / share with my PJ network. All got a kick out of it.  Thanks again. Can’t wait for this tour to start!

    Same with Metallica. I don't know about 300. But there were fans complaining. And they got in
    Just curious. What was the fans argument/complaining about? And how did it work?

    I don't remember that much. But it was basically like here. People not knowing it's a SiriusXM event. And they thought they deserved tickets because they are fans.

    It’s about  about people who had tickets and don’t show up As well as tickets held by band, label, VIPs etc that aren’t showing up. 

    Think of it this way, a radio station has a free show with a band. The room hold 300. They give away 500-600 rrix cause people know they got in for free so no loss if they just decide not to go.

    My friend also got that. I think either he entered the email not associated with his account, or it was because it's the first contest he entered. I bet it was the former.

    I was honestly hesitant to post that, because while I thought the idea was funny I also know there’s approximately a 100% chance that someone on here will take it seriously and try to get that usher job.
