    You have to be the first to ring in when they play a Pearl Jam song. I could've punched someone down the radio today though.. She rang when they played a Nickleback song!!!!!!!!!! FARK ME!!!!!! :evil: These type of people will be the imbeciles that will win the tickets!!!!!!!!

    I can't stand listening to the radio, but maybe i'll have a listen over the weekend. Do they talk to the first caller live on the air?

    I hear ya.. I never really listen to the radio, let along Triple M but I am going to do that for the next couple of days. It ends on the 25th of August.

    They usually talk to the winner of that song and play it

    Yeah i'm with you... I realised why I hardly ever listen to the radio again!

    Same songs in every segment/show... i heard the new red hot chili peppers every half hour i'm sure...

    One caller the other day was asked if they'd seen Pearl Jam before... They replied "no, but i've always wanted to..."
    If they wanted to see them why would they not have seen them in Australia? I don't get it... Why if they have never seen them in Australia would they travel to Vancouver to do it?

    I did call in when Last Kiss was played :roll: , but got an engaged tone on the only day i tried haha

    people who enter don't give a shit about pearl jam, they want a free trip to Vancouver. like the person ringing when nickelback was played, surely they have no interest in pearl jam at all. there are people who are pretty much professional competition entrants, they just spend all day every day entering every comp online, radio, tv, ect. they can.

    when i worked nights i'd spend a few hours a day online entering comps. i won movie tickets, dvds, cds, clothes, band/movie merch and all sorts of stuff. and i only entered the comps that had some appeal to me. alot just enter anything and everything to win shit. there are websites and forums that pretty much list every comp currently running, where and how to enter, and if you need answers or clues alot of the sites give you those too.

    It really is sooooo annoying.. I actually looked into flying to Vancouver and getting tickets to this concert (but couldn't afford it this year) and would give anything to even get into the draw for it.. (and to also win it) But then you have these people who can't even be arsed seeing them when they are in Sydney ringing up. They probably don't know any songs after Ten!!!!

    I would quickly lose patience with this competition if I don't want to win it sooo much!!! :( (And also due to the fact that I don't know if I could listen to another Offspring or Living End song!)

    Put the number on speed dial and have your phone ready, so all you have to do is hit the call button :) .

    Is anybody in the draw to win the trip to Vancouver?

    Really jodiem?

    I got through on my first go, must have been beginner's luck! I listened online on the triple m site so I could pause it on songs I didn't want to listen to as well.

    I put the number on speed dial in my mobile but I had the number dialed on my mobile, ready to call, then I hit dial as soon as I heard "Jeremy" start playing. Then I got to embarrass myself by talking on the radio! The guy wanted me to rattle off some line about wanting to be picked, but I stuffed it up a bit and he didn't sound too impressed. I certainly don't have a voice for radio! :oops: A winning phone call would certainly get a reaction though ;) .

    I hope you can get through too, keep trying :) . Have you tried at different times in the day too? The competition runs between 6am-6pm, so would you have more luck in the morning? :?:

    Every time I hear pearl jam on triple m I ring up and I get through but they tell me it was a creed song, not pearl jam.

    Oh that just makes me sadder :( But yay for you for getting through!

    I have been trying the online listening thing too and the radio on my desk but no love. I have noticed that on the online thing they usually have the next song coming up but even when I try ringing as soon as the name comes up on that bit it (before the song is even played) it is already engaged :o I have it on speed dial on my mobile and on my work phone..

    Trying my above strategy I then rang through the other day and got through, but the player was wrong. I was also recorded and played back later on and I can agree with you about not having a voice for radio.. talk about nasal!!! :oops:

    I tried on the weekend, but maybe I should try getting up earlier.. it is hard though with working during the day and having to rush off for meetings.. I'm not at my desk sometimes.. doesn't work realised this :roll:

    Awww that must be so annoying jodiem, i'll keep my fingers crossed for you! They did seem to be promoting the competition on the radio a whole lot when I tried on the weekend, so there must be a lot of people trying to enter at once. The competition ends on Thursday at 6pm. Your work should give you tomorrow off! ;)

    With the online triple m player, when I was listening on the day I entered, it didn't say if the pearl jam song was next (like it does with other songs), it just said "next: more of Sydney's best rock". They played a promo for the competition and then Jeremy played straight after.

    Were they actually listing the PJ song on the online player before it was played online? Doesn't seem fair if they were!

    I wonder how many entrants there will be by the time the competition closes too...

    I just hope a genuine fan of the band wins the competition :) .
