Post by dandelions »

We are members of this Form....and confused about how to buy the Presale Tickets. I read that tickets are available for presale for the upcoming concerts, but HOW do we do this?
Thanks for any information!

You may call it a Form, but those of us who have been here for YEARS (not just a few hours) call it a Forum!

How on earth does jarkko stay so polite :roll: He must have the patience of Job. ;-)

Not trying to be difficult, but this sounds like tickets will go on sale in Europe, for example, before the password becomes available; could that be right (you say password available 10 a.m. EST but tickets on sale 10 a.m. local time--and, of course, time is earlier in Europe. it so happens I will be in Europe when all this goes down. Can you clarify? Also, will this link actually provide a password or just some hints (past threads seem to say that's what happened last time)?

Many thanks!

Hey, local time means of course time of the VENUE -- not the customer! :?
The venues in each presale are located in different time zones, but EST will be always the zone for the first city to reach 10 am,
so we are posting the password at 10 am EST. The next venues will join the presale 1 or 2 hrs later!
(I knew that this will be complicated!)

Its really not that complicated though. If its 10 am EST then its 9am Central Standard Time then its 8 am Mountain Standard time and its 7am Pacific Standard. Yes?

My understanding is there will be a LINK on the Tour Page starting 10 am EST (America) ... correct?

The link will be shown in the PASSWORDS thread on this Forum (and nowhere else), here: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=13489

The password link in the complete tour schedule at http://www.leonardcohenfiles.com/tour2008-1.html takes you to the same passwords thread. Links to sellers will also be included.
