Probably at work :(
To see Trans-Siberian Orchestra in concert!! I love them and had wanted to go to their concert but tickets were $45 apiece and I couldn't justify spending that much.
I was in shock when I was the "5th caller" to my local radio station. I don't think I've ever won anything off the radio before. But the concert is this Sunday and hopefully I'll be able to take pics and post.

Oh! You are so lucky!!! I'm jealous! I love TSO! I wanted to see them when they were here. They had a 4 pack for 99 bucks and were playing on my daughters birthday, so I wanted to take her and her SO. But they had plans to go to Costa Rica for her birthday. Maybe next year.

ENJOY!!

Wooo! It's great that you won! I looove love love concerts, and $45 sounds like a good price depending on the venue. I think the most I spent on a single ticket was 85-ish. (They were floor seats, but floor seats are overrated.) Boyf has spent more on sold-out tickets from ebay (as gifts). The worst was when he bought two tickets to a 3 day music festival for ~$500. We managed to sell two of the days and came out $100 ahead.

Anyhow, have fun! You'll probably encounter... $10 drinks too! Yikes.

Very cool! One of the radio stations here was giving out TSO tickets as well. I couldnt find the link to enter online for them, I guess it may be over here. They've got Eagles tickets now that I'm trying to win .... they went on sale yesterday and are $400-1300 for good seats!

Tips from a radio announcer:
When you hear the cue to call, count to 20... then dial the number
Don't be discouraged if you're not the right caller, try again
Often they will wait a minute before answering the right caller because they have to turn on their recorder
And then win!

i just saw TSO last night in anaheim, ca for the 5th time. you'll not be disappointed. just the lightshow alone is worth it. the only bummer now is waiting a whole year for the next one.
but then i got the AC/DC concert on dec 6th to look forward to

Two strike-outs for TSO here this year. They don't play until after Christmas, and I won't be in town on the date they WILL be here. Fooey.
