Q104...GnR Weekend


Zint

Recommended Posts

I was living in NYC in 2K2 and was too broke to afford tickets. For weeks in advance, I'd call the DJ's, requesting GnR and asking for pity tickets. I emailed the programming director with a long sob story about why they should give me some. I even called the record company pretending to be a celebrity's assistant in hopes of scamming a ticket.

Then, the day of the show, I got an email from Q104's programming director telling me that somebody hadn't claimed their tickets (due the the snow storm that blew in), and if I could get to their offices before they closed I could have them. They were closing early. I had to get up to their Times Square area office from the Wall Street area, through a massive snow storm in about forty-five minutes. I just left work and started running.

Then I went the the bar that served all you could drink beer for 10 bucks and got hammered. I didn't pay. I just stole some yuppie asshole's cup and poured his beer out. I got tickets to the show and enough beer to be black-out drunk for free. God Bless America.

I love getting to see Axl.

Even if you can't win tickets, there's still hope.

awsome free tickets free drink

It was blizzarding pretty hard that day this is not a hard story to believe, I drove 30 miles in it to get there I should know, slipping and sliding all the way down the Palisades Parkway-

Besides, why make it up?

The people at Q104.3 happen to be notoriously nice and they do answer e-mail questions and inquiries all the time.

does anyone know when they'll be playing the 'axl q-to-call' and what it is?

i really want to try to win some tix... i'm so disgustingly broke

i would assume they would play it mostly during like primetime, rush hours

gotta love the Q... they actually play pretty good stuff sometimes... unlike wbab whose rotation has been the same for about 10 years now

Haven't personally heard it but this station runs on live stream, so I guess just keep listening in :)
