I got an e-mail yesterday saying I had won 2 tickets to the CI concert in Indiana Sunday night. I had entered it a while ago on a Myspace site, kind of on a whim. I noticed the date and had planned to maybe visit some family/friends in the Chicago area that weekend, but those plans fell through weeks ago. I hadn't seen anymore news on the contest, so I figured somebody must have won it. But surprise! My name was picked. With just 3 days left and no $ there is no way I could go, so I reluctantly e-mailed back the guy and said sorry and told him to pick another name. So, hopefully someone else will go. They had my tickets in my name ready at the will call window and everything. Such a bummer!!
Full Version: I WON! I WON!, but....

OH MY HECK!!! 
I would have just died if that happened to me.
I hope they give out the tickets to another lucky Isaak fan!!!
Have you heard back on whether they will re-issue the tickets? How sad is this story?? I'm so sorry hun

He said he was going to draw another name, so there's a lucky person out there somewhere.

I was initially bummed, but that's the way I look at it to. I'm glad I was able to get back in touch with the manager on time. 15 days until WT....whooohooo!
Awwww Miss Lilo - I can't believe that happened. Reminds me of an old Australian television
ad where this girl ( who I think was played by Naomi Watts) won a date with Tom Cruise.
She was all excited and beside herself until the announcer told her it was for that night.
She couldn't make it though - her mum was cooking a roast!
Ohhh look, I found it - Date with Tom Cruise

Thanks, Sugz! I'm sure we will have a blast. I'm going with my husband...going to make a date night out of it. We are way back on the lawn, but I'm sure we will still have a blast. Hard to believe in just 5 short days we will be there!
Mwah back at ya!
