Jarkko ...
Does this mean we'll have presale codes as early as 9 a.m. - and not have to wait till 10? I'd hate to see any other presale code site beat us to the punch ...

Help urgently needed.
Can't make head or tail of time-changing apps so kindly posted by forum friends. can someone please tell me what time in GMT we will be able to 'go for' tickets !

Arlene posted this link a page or so ago ... it's might help you figure it all out.

That's OK; at least the Colisseum itself doesn't have it up yet on their December schedule ...

The incorrect information has now vanished from Ticketmaster. We are back in the original plan, and of course we don't know where the last concerts will be!

Maarten: I saw that you have updated your signature. Are you going to Bette Midler's and Cher's concerts in Las Vegas, or what does that Las Vegas 2x mean?
I will stick to my previous signature TVLCOTTIH - The Very Last Concert Of This Tour, I hope. "I hope" does not mean that I want the tour to end - I'm
just expressing my wish to get to the last concerts. The other explanation The Very Last Concert Of This Tour Is Here sounds more unambiguous!

think you will find that

7 am PDT is 5 pm GMT
10 am PDT is 8 pm GMT
1 pm PDT is 11 pm GMT

The Ticketmaster site did state that fanclub presale was 9 am PDT which would be 7 pm GMT but am assuming that was inaccurate.

I have checked the above calculations twice with the Time Zone website mentioned in previous post and hope I have not lost the plot somewhere along this confusing journey !!!

Wayne Newton - two nights in a row. He loves that "Danke Schoen."

Well I've been following this all day (thank goodness for Labor Day here in the USA) and I'm reluctant to believe anyone now. Thankfully I have tomorrow off work, so I don't think I'm going to sleep very much tonight. Once I have those tickets in my virtual hand I'll sleep........

Good luck everyone!

Not sure where you are, but Ireland is currently on IST (not GMT) and UK is currently on BST (not GMT) - there is a one hour difference between IST/BST annd GMT. So if my calculations are correct, using http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

San Francisco (U.S.A. - California) Tuesday, 7 September 2010, 07:00:00 UTC-7 hours PDT
Dublin (Ireland) Tuesday, 7 September 2010, 15:00:00 UTC+1 hour IST
Corresponding UTC (GMT) Tuesday, 7 September 2010, 14:00:00

Then -
7am PDT is 3pm IST/BST
10am PDT is 6pm IST/BST
1pm PDT is 9pm IST/BST

Anybody care to check this ? - I'd rather be corrected than to miss the pre-sale

You are spot on. Good luck in the pre-sale.

Here is the correct timing for today's happenings:

PDT = GMT - 7 hours
HST = GMT - 10 hours

Announcement at 7 am PDT = 2 pm GMT = 4 pm CEST (Central European summer time)
Presale to 2 cities at 10 am PDT = 5 pm GMT = 7 pm CEST
Presale to 1 city 10 am HST = 8 pm GMT = 10 pm CEST

You may check the timings here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=137

Folks at a guess... I hedging towards Hawaii and then the west coast, Los Angeles or San Francisco, sadly to far and to expensive for me.... anyway lets wait and see.... If I could loose a Wife and two Kids, I could probably make it, as I speak they have all exits covered.... whoever is so lucky to attend, have a wonderful time......regards to all...

Do anyone remember how much was the price for the best seats in the desert oasis last time?
I've no experience with Ticketmonster I mean Ticketmaster at all. Would they send the ticket by mail to abroad?
Any tricky things I should know?
Thanks for all pieces of advice.

For clarity:

Announcement at 7 am PDT = 2 pm GMT = 4 pm CEST = 3 pm in Ireland/UK
Presale to 2 cities at 10 am PDT = 5 pm GMT = 7 pm CEST = 6 pm in Ireland/UK
Presale to 1 city 10 am HST = 8 pm GMT = 10 pm CEST = 9 pm in Ireland/UK
