Midnight Oil

you can convert time zones easily on timeanddate.com but

9am AEDT is

2pm PST (LA, SFO)
5pm EST (NY)
10pm BST (London)
11pm CET (Europe)

all on SUNDAY

if you are from O/S I recommend you create an account on ticketek and verify that they accept CCs with a FOREIGN billing address by trying to book a show and then cancelling before you commit

my sincere hope is that the location and the economy will be in our favour. also the venue is larger (about 2500) than Manly but you never know

How could people get so unkind?

Yes, this is saturation publicity compared to Manly

Everyone who's planning to use the ticketek website on monday, I
recommend visiting the site beforehand and familiarising yourself with
it and if there's a login needed to do transactions, set it up
beforehand. Check what credit cards they use, etc, maybe test run the
payment engine, up to the point of payment then cancel it before you commit.

O/S people, look up the international time zone to convert the AU local
time. Find out if it's Eastern Standard Time or Eastern Daylight Time
and figure out what that all means to convert to your time ... Any local
knowledge on when Ticketek's "9am" *really* is in GMT? ie: Will it be
open at GMT 2009-03-01 23:00 or 2009-03-02 00:00 or 01:00 (I'm in
Queensland on EasternDinosaurTime , who knows what Ticketek's 9am
converts to up here? Still 9am? or 8am?). Even then, I'd lurk around
the PC at all those times if you're overseas and flying in, and just try
getting on anyway in case someone's confused the times.
