Woot! You can enter to win tickets to be there in the studio with them!!! They're calling it "Breakfast with Coldplay." Last time I won tickets from KROQ, it was "Cocktails with Coldplay" with the meet and greet. This one is a random contest. Listen to 10 song snippets, then take the multiple choice quiz. Hard songs, like Viva, Clocks, Fix You...duh... They will call you if you are chosen. I'm entering for everyone in my family! How awesome would it be to win???? Cross your fingers for me!!!

I've never ever EVER won a contest from KROQ (unlike their rival station 98.7 who I win from all the freaking time). Entered regardless. Would be a cool birthday gift and I live relatively close to the station.

Win Tickets To Kevin & Bean’s Breakfast With Coldplay At The New Red Bull Sound Space At KROQ
For years we’ve often wondered, “Wouldn’t it be cool if we kicked out the sales department and turned the giant open room into a night club, complete with a stage, studio lighting and amazing sound?”
Well, thanks to our friends at Red Bull, we’ve accomplished the unthinkable.
After convincing our sales team to move into another facility, we removed the cubicles, ripped up the carpet, painted the room black, welded trussing, hung sound and lighting and made ourselves a club rivaling any in LA.
Welcome to the Red Bull Sound Space at KROQ.
After months of prep, it’s finally come time to break in our space with a little band known as Coldplay. Tuesday, October 18th, it’s Kevin & Bean’s Breakfast with Coldplay, and we’re giving you the opportunity to join us for this inaugural event inside the Red Bull Sound Space at KROQ.
For those of you out of state, or who are unable to enter the contest, you’ll be excited to learn that we’ll webcast the entire breakfast live!
Here’s how you win tickets. Listen to each song clip below. Then, after correctly identifying each song in our Coldplay quiz and you’ll be entered to win these ultra exclusive tickets!
http://soundcloud.com/kroq/sets/coldplay-mystery-mix
THEN TAKE THE QUIZ (http://kroq.radio.com/coldplay-mystery-mix-entry-form/)
LIVE WEBCAST
Watch the entire Breakfast with Coldplay, live and uncut, Tuesday, October 18th at 7:30am PDT at www.KROQ.com/soundspace.

well i'm just saying that in some contest you can enter as many times as you'd like...
Corkus
10-10-2011, 07:45 PM
Yeah, and this is more fair. Everyone has an equal chance (provided they can accurately solve the extremely easy quiz) and not just "Who can spend the most time spamming the contest?"
They'll have a bunch of call-in contests for this too, though, and you're lucky if you can even get the phone to ring for KROQ.

At the time of their call, callers will be required to provide all information requested including their full name, complete address (including zip code), day and evening phone numbers and date of birth in order to be eligible to win. In the event that the selected caller is disconnected or is found to be ineligible, the next eligible caller that successfully makes it through on the call-in line and completes their call will be a winner. There is no limit to the number of times a listener may attempt to call in to win, but a listener may be a winner only once. There will be up to a total of twenty-five (25) Prize winners selected on-air during the Promotion dates. The Station is not responsible for telephone service outages, delays, busy signals, equipment malfunctions and any other technological difficulties that may prevent an individual from completing his/her telephone call. Due to delays in the KROQ online streaming of its broadcast signal, listeners to the online stream may not be able to participate in or may be disadvantaged in participating in on-air contests.
2. ELIGIBILITY RESTRICTIONS
a. The Promotion is open to all KROQ listeners who are 18 years of age or older and who legally reside in the State of California. Employees of the Station, its licensee, its corporate parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates, its advertising agencies, participating sponsors/promotional partners, other radio stations in the Los Angeles metropolitan area and the members of their immediate families and/or households are ineligible to participate or win.
b. Listeners are eligible to win a prize valued at $50 or more or event tickets valued at $100 or more from KROQ-FM only once every thirty (30) days, and listeners are eligible to win a prize in a Promotion conducted by the Station only once every sixty (60) days if the prize is valued over $600 and only once per year if prize is valued over $1,000. Only one winner per household is permitted in any Station promotion.
c. In order to participate in the promotion, participants must have a valid driver’s license, state identification card, military identification card, or valid passport; complete all entry forms and questionnaires, and sign a liability, publicity and participant release form when submitting their entry and/or prior to being selected.

The Approximate Retail Value of each Prize is $PRICELESS. The winner will be solely responsible for all taxes and all other fees and expenses not specified herein associated with the receipt and use of the Prize.
b. All prizes or prize certificates may be picked up at the office of the Station at the address below. The winner will forfeit any prize or prize certificate not claimed within forty-five (45) days of winning. In the event that a prize or prize certificate is mailed to the winner, it will be with the prior written consent of the winner and therefore, winner assumes the risk of its loss. The Station is not responsible for the safe arrival of a prize or prize certificate.
c. There is no substitution, transfer or cash equivalent for prizes, except that the Station may, at its sole discretion, substitute prizes or cash of comparable value. The prizes are expressly limited to the item(s) listed above and unless otherwise expressly specified, do not include taxes, gratuities or any other expenses. Other restrictions may apply.
4. WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION
a. Decisions of the Station management with respect to the Promotion are final.
b. Twenty-five (25) winners will be selected on-air, as described in Section 1 of these Official Promotion Rules.
c. Odds of winning a Prize depend on the order and number of calls received.
d. Prize winners must listen to the Station to win, but do not be present to win.
e. The winner must execute and return any required affidavit of eligibility and/or liability/publicity release within five (5) days of winning or prize will be forfeited and an alternate winner may be selected at random from all remaining eligible qualifiers. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, fails to sign and return the required affidavit of eligibility and/or liability/publicity release within the required time period, or if a prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, the potential winner forfeits the prize.

This is going to be fun. I've enjoyed the 2 KROQ events posted in Multimedia. Coldplay seem to have really good time at KROQ so this won't be any different. I'm looking forward to logging in and enjoying myself from the East Coast. Though I must say, these boys are making me dizzy. I really thought they were going to stay on the European continent until their gig at the Today's Show.

:) I'm hoping at least one of us here wins! Not only do they have the online contest, there is a "call-in" contest. They announce at noon, 3pm and 6pm to be the 20th caller. And Kevin and Bean have their own contests during their morning show, so I will be listening tomorrow and every day until Friday...

Thanks Amanda. I'm doing my best to win the KROQ tickets. The contest this morning was painful. The dj's took the first 5 callers. William Shatner was a guest on the show and he read lyrics to each caller and all they had to do was identify the damn song. Only 2 out of the 5 got them, and they were Yellow, Clocks, Trouble, ETIAW, and Fix You. Then they drew a winner out of the 2 who got them correct. I was dying...because all I got was a busy signal. They said they did this so the tickets would go to a "real" fan. Grrrr...

While I'm sure it was a "chalk on the blackboard" moment for you :evil:, I'm actually REALLY happy that they did it this way. Why have an exclusive event filled with people who semi like Coldplay? I got stuck next to some radio contest winners at the ACL taping and it was a pretty miserable experience! :(
While I didn't expect them to know all the new songs...say like some of the more enthused :wink3:, at least know the names of their "greatest hits" -- especially if you plan to yell them out on camera! :facepalm:

Oh I know. I'd rather it go to someone who at least knows their top hits. I just wish I could get through on the phone lines. They are only giving away 50 pairs of tickets, the studio is tiny and they're doing a Q&A with the fans asking questions :)

The contest this morning was pretty funny. It was "Wheel of Celebrity Voices," where Ralph (their impressions guy) sang or spoke Coldplay lyrics as different people or bands, one was as Justin Bieber, another was as Mumford and Sons (very, very funny!). Again, only three people got the answer right, and the poor girl who knew "Death and All his Friends" (all the rest were popular singles) didn't even win. I was on my way to work, so, no chance to call there. Sigh (I got them all right).

Ugh. These call-in winners are starting to really annoy me. I need to stop listening to them when I don't get through. NO one seems very excited about seeing Coldplay- they're just happy they won something :( I'm worried the crowd will be half-dead, like that Letterman crowd. This last winner - the dj said the stage was very small and if Chris fell off the stage, would she catch him. The way she responded, I don't even think she knows who Chris is. Grrrr...

Today's game was very hard--you had to guess the names of the songs as they were read backwords. People wouldn't even guess, just went, "uuuuuh." I don't think these are fans, I think they are just people who call in and wait to win something. So frustrating. I'm lying in bed this morning going, "Viva la Vida!" I just hope there are actual fans there when the breakfast finally comes.

I was one of them :( It was hard. I totally froze and blanked out, and missed Yellow. It was horrible. I can't believe it. But I'm on hold again right now for this next contest...I dont' think they're going to get to me, but we'll see.

Did they have another contest this morning? After the backwards songs?
They did another contest this morning. Kevin and Bean do 2 a day, then there are the 3 call-in times. The second contest was so much easier...Kind of like "fill in the blank."
A color in the rainbow is?
When you have a run-in with the police, you are in?
That thing on the wall that tells time is?
The Spanish word for life is?
When you are cold, you?
When you jump out of a plane, you need?
Someone who works in a lab?
When you cry, you have?
They asked a guy the questions first, and he got them all. Then they asked a girl, and she didn't know very many. MUCH easier than the backwards song titles :( I was on hold the whole time waiting for them to get to me and they didn't. I asked the girl on the phone when they were doing the drawing from the online contest, and she didn't know. So now I wait for noon to come and try calling again. So far, I've been caller 15, 17 and last night my husband was 19. They always look for caller 20.

When you have gotten through during the call-in times did you get through on the first dial or did you re-dial and get through? When I call and it's busy the first time I never know if I should re-dial because I assume since they are taking caller 20 that they get that person pretty quick.

I haven't tried calling in for this contest, but if it's anything like the previous KROQ call-ins I've tried (pretty much all of them require you to be Caller 20), immediately re-dial if you get a busy signal. I've gotten like Caller 14 on my 3rd call, for example. If you don't get through in like 8 attempts, I'd say they've picked a winner by that point.

the only thing more frustrating than hearing the busy signal is LISTENING TO THE BORED AND UNINTERESTED WINNERS ON THE RADIO! i've called in every day at 12, 3, 6, and at 9 (after the furious five) and i'm 13-1. only got through once, and i was caller 15!
but (forgive the pun) don't panic! we've got 7 more chances (aside from the games in the morning) to call in! god put a smile on our faces! CAN I GET AN AMEN???
something tells me that we need to band together.

Yes! I am so hating on myself for messing it up this morning when I couldn't name Yellow :( I just totally blanked out and if you'd asked me what my name was at that moment, I probably couldn't have told you. So far, we've been caller 15, 17, 19 - the 19 last night just about killed me, and I've gotten through 3 times in the mornings to Kevin and Bean, and been on hold twice for their games. Just keep trying...sigh...Do they give away more tickets at 9pm? I didn't know that, I stop listening after 6pm.

I just dial. I was using 2 phones and I had the number ready to dial. They do the contests right when whatever song they play that ends at noon, 3 or 6. If I get a busy, just hit redial 7-8-9 times. All that plus a lot of finger crossing. I'm still in shock. 60-80 people in the audience. A far cry from the 30,000 who were behind us at Austin City Limits last month! KROQ has been good to me. I won meet and greet tix from them 2 years ago :)

They did another contest this morning. Kevin and Bean do 2 a day, then there are the 3 call-in times. The second contest was so much easier...Kind of like "fill in the blank."
A color in the rainbow is?
When you have a run-in with the police, you are in?
That thing on the wall that tells time is?
The Spanish word for life is?
When you are cold, you?
When you jump out of a plane, you need?
Someone who works in a lab?
When you cry, you have?
They asked a guy the questions first, and he got them all. Then they asked a girl, and she didn't know very many. MUCH easier than the backwards song titles :( I was on hold the whole time waiting for them to get to me and they didn't. I asked the girl on the phone when they were doing the drawing from the online contest, and she didn't know. So now I wait for noon to come and try calling again. So far, I've been caller 15, 17 and last night my husband was 19. They always look for caller 20.

Did you see the link on Coldplay's facebook wall? Another contest for CA residents only - the link takes you to an entry form on coldplay.com, but you can't find the link on coldplay.com without going through the facebook link, if that makes sense. They will notify the winner on Monday.

Loving this concert - great to finally see and hear what Jonny does with the guitar during Viva - it was hard to tell sometimes, great rendition of Viva
Interesting to hear how they did start with acoustic album - CB, Paradise, and UATW (likely U.F.O as well) - I can't believe they were playing CB with an accordion at first, luckily Guy put his foot down, surprised Will was ok with it given his track record of rejecting ideas.

Interesting answer to all the critics and negativity - I was posting new songs from the album, and my comments on them on my fb wall when a old high school friend started ripping on CP, being overrated - typical pseudo hipster type, though he's corporate - defended CP appropriately incl. using Duke Ellington's quote - if it sounds good, it must be good -
anyway, CB sounds so good, after hearing the studio version, it is going to be a massive hit, would love to hear acoustic though sans accordion.

One of the few bands that can make their music's sound better live than studio...
The sign of how quality a band really is is how they perform on stage. And Coldplay do it better than anyone at the moment. Glastonbury told me they do it even better than U2 now and I never thought I'd ever be saying that. Regardless of opinions on the new album itself, these songs have catapulted Coldplay right up to the top of the live ladder. Hurts Like Heaven, Charlie Brown are no doubt in the top 5 live songs. The others would be Clocks, A Rush Of Blood To The Head and In My Place.

I put them in the same level of performance, but they have been improving for years, one day maybe they going to be best than U2 live, but not yet, now they are equal...

I VERY much enjoyed that! It's such a creeper thing to say, but I love watching them off camera, just goofing off and interacting. Chris is SO good with fans, I mean they all are, but he stood there for so long and made sure he signed everything he could reach. Thought it was sweet he hung that gift someone gave him off his piano too :nice:
They were very funny and easy and natural, was lovely to see. Still can't abide Para Para in any format at all, but ETIAW did its job as a closer well enough. Charlie Brown was the stand out though. 100%/. Excellent.
I'd kill to go to something like that! :bomb:

First, Chris is left handed? didn't remember that - awesome of them to sign autographs - it is really cool seeing what they do between breaks - it looked jonny's guitar was having problems right before they started playing Fix You - btw, is there a transcription of what Chris plays on the organ during the live shows - was trying to watch what he was doing - would love to play the song like he does to see how it sounds. Also, Guy on keyboards for ETIAW was cool.
One last thing - ETIAW is a great song and will be a classic despite all the hate directed toward it. It's such a exhilarating song - ecstatic, euphoric - especially with the buildup and the lyrical melody. Beautiful - great interview and great set.
I'm hitting Colbert Report tomorrow, hopefully we get at least 3 or 4 songs - they played the Daily Show before and think they played at least 3 songs.

It is so good to see the boys in these intimate sets. Actually, it makes me pretty nostalgic that they didn't finish the acoustic record idea. Fix You still gives me chills after many years. The interview was nice, but I think there was too much repetition with the CBS Sunday TV interview. And I didn't like the hosts. Anyhow, the boys are back, they are in great shape and it is so nice to see them so happy after all these years. We are indeed very lucky fans because this is one of the greatest bands in history.

I loved it too, especially the off air stuff. That was SO envy inducing. I thought they sounded very very good. I guess the Live TV curse doesn't extend to live video streams. Chri's vocals were quite lovely yes?

I just have to say:
- love how Chris shot down the negativity for Axel Rose
- his answer about people who criticize CP, and turning negativity into a positive for kids who have to deal with it everyday.
- this whole Zen thing happening with Kung Fu Panda 2
- visualizing Guy in the bath
- Jonny's sweet answer about we've only got each other
- Will's steady and stable presence always
Left with smiles and a couple of tear-ups as these guys are the greatest in more than one way. xo
