Nate and I have been looking forward to the Coldplay concert on Nov.22 for over 6 months. I said to him years ago, if they ever come here we are going to that concert! So we bought our tickets early the day they went on sale. Then 101.9 the end announced a contest to win tickets and backstage passes to MEET Coldplay! I was a faithful listener waiting for something to be announced(which wasn't easy, they play a lot of crap). This week they started the contest, they would play a Coldplay song every hour and if you knew all 9 and were the 10th caller-WINNER! I started listening yesterday at 9:00 and wrote down a song every hour until Nate came home and then I left him with instructions to listen and write down the last two songs, and I went to the store. Right when I got home the last song started and I ran in the house and got ready to dial! I used our home phone and Nate called on his cell. Busy. Busy again. Then Nate's rang-caller 3! Busy again. Nate's ring's again! They pick up and ask him his name, and I know he's caller 10! I scream, and Nate says he's caller 9. Liar! He was caller 10! We WON! Tickets to the concert, backstage passes, a preshow party for only 20 people were we will meet them, and $101.9 dollars! Needless to say I am way excited! Now what am I going to wear?

That is AWESOME! I'm excited for you and Nate. You'll have to give us a full account of that night. I hope you have a great time!!
So jealous. I haven't been to a concert in a year. We went to Smashing Pumpkins, and I felt so old! Have fun, and wear special ear plugs. The older I get the more I can't stand the ringing in my ears.
I still remember leaving for work that morning, and after hearing you say that you were going to listen all day and try to win, I thought: Yeah right! Boy am I glad that I was wrong. It was an incredible feeling to win this eh? Maybe we should go to Vegas while the Karma seems to be a flowing!
Silly.

Kewl!
