I woke up round 6:20am MST today and looked at the receiver and they literally were playing AOH at that exact moment. (That really is the story of my life...just missing the moment by seconds to minutes) I tried calling in several times but didn't get through. I was told at the store that I have 2 weeks to return it if it doesn't work out. Like I said earlier this morning at 6:20AM. The story of my life is missing things by seconds to minutes. I have been sitting here A L L D A Y L O N G since 6:20AM this morning with my phone in my hand and my Sirius receiver on. When one song ends I grab my phone and get ready to press the call button. I've been so tired today as I had little sleep last night. Of course what happens just now??? I accidentally dosed off for not even 5 minutes and when I woke up I heard Angel of Harlem in my earbud from Sydney playing. I called and called and called and called and called and called and then called some more. NOTHING! I really do have the worst luck when it comes to anything U2 related. In fact in the few vehicle accidents that I have gotten into over the years (none my fault) I had U2 playing in the car or in my headphones. One might think I play their music all of the time so that explains why U2 would be on when getting into an accident. No, actually in all of those instances I hadn't played U2 in about 2 weeks or so. So now when I ride my scooter U2 is not allowed to be played. Wrecking on my scooter while listening to Dirty Day wasn't fun nor were the road rash scars that came after.

Subscriber soph123 9 Posted June 7, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 7, 2018 I was in the car and started calling within the first two notes. Lol. Rangba couple of times and the silence and voice mail. Someone might have answered and hung up the first time but I was in the car with the raido still playing. Ah well.

Subscriber lynn_klein 11 Posted June 7, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 7, 2018 4:06, heard opening note and dialed right away. Got a ring, then a busy signal, and then a call failed 5x in a row. Never a human I guess that is it for today, someone said they only play it twice a day Link to post Share on other sites

Never a human I guess that is it for today, someone said they only play it twice a day That's what the rules say but they played it three times yesterday and this was a different version. I dunno. I might listen off and on for the rest of the day. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber FinlayLovesU2 7 Posted June 7, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 7, 2018 I was in the car too. Was picking up my son from school... he gets in the car and starts telling me excitedly about who signed his yearbook and I'm listening to the app, and to him, just bopping along, and suddenly yell "wait a minute!" and we both cracked up because by this time the song is half over. I tried to call several times. Got a message that said the call couldn't go through at this time. ??? I have to laugh because this is my kind of luck and my son thought it was a riot. LOL!

vtgirl77 0 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I thought the song is only played twice a day too. However it was played a third time last night. Maybe SiriusXM makes up their own rules as they go. Link to post Share on other sites
vtgirl77 0 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I tried this afternoon when the live cut of AOH came on in my car too. Got the dead silence a few times, then got the voicemail message. Oh well. Link to post Share on other sites

Subscriber skeegan68 22 Posted June 7, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Ok, so I collated all the times I could find from this thread and my call logs on my cell phone of the times that they played AOH...Some times maybe slightly off due to people reporting from using the app versus the radio/streaming and also sometimes they didn’t note if it was eastern time zone but anyway this gives us a little bit of an idea how often they been playing it and what time of day. I would love to go down there on Monday and wait all day in hopes that I get a ticket in there but I have a broken foot and it’s just not feasible. if I don’t know for sure that we don’t have seats I can’t go there this time. Any other time I would be there absolutely but I’m gonna keep on trying to win till the end of the week! Just looked at my call log, I’ve tried well over 400 times ? good luck! AOH PLAY TIMES (Eastern, approx) FRI 6/1. 09:02p SAT 6/2. 10:17a, 07:23p SUN 6/3. 08:00a, 03:50p MON 6/4. 06:48a, 02:52p TUE 6/5. 08:55a, 02:52p, 05:58p WED 6/6. 12:59p, 02:39p, 05:25p THU 6/7. 08:30a, 04:03p Edited June 8, 2018 by skeegan68 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Mon 6/4 - I can tell you that on Monday they played it at 4:48am (on the app) MST. So 6:48am EST. I had been listening all through the night and didn't sleep and just as I was about to go to bed it came on the app. Tue 6/5 - They definitely played it at 3:58pm MST on the app. (5:58pm EST) because I walked out of the grocery store angry that I hadn't gotten back in my car quick enough to have called when it first came on the radio. So did they play it 3 times also on Tuesday or is the time zone just off on what you have listed? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
