The island isn't "ireland' by any chance.......Or United Kingdom.

AEG has informed us that the last concerts of this tour will be announced at 7 am PDT on September 7,
and we will have our presale starting later on the same day, September 7 (10 am local time of the venues)
The concert dates are in the beginning of December. More details to follow!
Be sure to check the announcement at 7 am PDT on September 7!

Ok, so Jarkko said the Final concerts announced 7am PDT n presale LATER, at 10 am local time of venue. Much as i selfishly hoped "island" would be ireland this can't be, as 10 am local time of venue occurs before 7am PDT venue announcement. This means venues must be west coast of USA where 10 am local is later than 7am PDT. My guess would be Honolulu n Las Vegas. Tragically finances won't stretch from ireland 2 west coast USA. Still, I have Lisbon on Friday to look forward to. All only idle speculation tho, truth to be revealed on Tuesday. Good luck 2 all in presale.

Diana, I don't know what I was thinking of this morning! Of course I know PDT is three hours earlier than EDT for heaven's sake. I have a friend in Portland, OR that I call with no fear that it's too late when I can't sleep and it's midnight for me. Must have been getting up too early today after that great tasting red wine I had last night with dinner can only be my excuse

Holy crap, I don't know what to do...
I had lost my credit card and now the new one still isn't here yet, so I called them again and they said they sent it out today, so it might be here the day after tomorrow...

Now what to do?


Edit: LC fans are the best! Thanks!

Edit II: Now I'm undecided... I'm a weirdo...

I have no permission to reveal the last locations and other details here before the official announcement, but some advice for those who make their presale plans for tomorrow: the announcement comes at 7 am PDT. Presale to two cities (3 concerts, # 2, 3 and 4) begins 3 hours later, 10 am PDT. Presale to the third city (concert # 1) begins three hours later = 1 pm PDT. Make sure you are registered to Ticketmaster.com before the presale goes active. Judging from the wild email and PM activity recently, there will be tremendous demand especially for the last two concerts. Good news is also that there will be no VIP tickets nor any holds (in any of these four concerts), so the fans will get great seats in all price levels. I am sure we will also have meetups, and for the very last concert we have to develop something special!

Hello, Jarkko, and all,
I haven't been involved in any presales since the Beacon last year, so I feel out of the loop--will there be a password? If so, how do we find it out?

A thousand thanks, Jarkko!!!
Getting excited.....

Nico...I'm at work and not able to get on FB. I've sent you a pm.

Diana

Yes, we will give the links at 7 am PDT in the official announcement, and then later the passwords when the presales become active (=10 am and 1 pm PDT). All that stuff will be in a new thread in this "World Tour 2010" section.

excellent! Thanks again and again....

This is so exciting! I sure hope the final two concerts will be in Las Vegas (or somewhere else nearby), and will certainly make an attempt to get there. Tomorrow at 7 a.m. can't come soon enough!

EVERYBODY CHECK THIS OUT:

Leonard's last two concerts are already listed on Ticketmaster - Dec. 10 and 11 at the Coleseum at Caesar's Palace. Ticketmaster says presale tickets go on sale at 9 a.m. PDT.

Sigh... Ticketmaster goes out with the concert news while we are asked to keep the secrets to the very last moment...

Las Vegas?!
how boring and uninspired..and how very un-Leonard Cohen!

Jarkko,
I feel for you: keeping these concerts a secret and then seeing TM spoils it all...
(Does this mean we can officially start updating our signatures? )
