Could be compensating for JW's body clock, if he's only landing a few nights before the concert.

 

15:30 CET is 9:30 AM EST, and 11:00 CET is 5:00 EST, so if anything the early concert times are worse for Williams' jet lag.

Thanks for the tips regarding seat selections. In the diagram (by the way, I LOVED the Williams smiley :lol:) I see that there are some seats on the left and on the right of the orchestra, also priced at 59 euros. Opinions on those seats please?

Just so I’m crystal clear: Members (me) can purchase tickets for themselves in the Tuesday Member pre-sale (8am UK/ 9am Vienna) and I can also try for my wife (non Member) in the same order?

You can get up to four tickets for each performance as a member before the general sale starts.

 

A friend says that you can actually get up to four tickets per performance per order, and then do another order with another four tickets, etc. But I haven't tried this myself.

Thank you very much!

Does anyone know if the online system has queuing implemented? I imagine that there will be a lot of competition for some of the areas, so how do they resolve it? What if two people try to buy the same seats at the same time?

Has anyone seen the concert at musikverein.at? The sale starts tomorrow but in the webpage there is nothing about it. 

 

Yeah, there is absolutely nothing on their webpage or social media. I hope they'll update it today.

The email said the concerts will be announced tomorrow, at the same time as the sale for the members will begin.

The concerts are now announced on the Musikverein's website, along with the program, which is the same for both days:

Sound the Bells!
„The Flight to Neverland” aus dem Film „Hook”
Auszug aus „Close Encounters of the Third Kind“
Across the Stars
„Donnybrook Fair“ aus „Far and Away“
„Remembrances” aus dem Film „Schindlers Liste”
Hedwigs Thema aus den „Harry Potter”-Filmen
„Adventures on Earth“ aus „E.T.“
— Pause —
Raiders March
A Child’s Tale. Suite aus „The BFG“
Out to Sea / Shark Cage Fugue
Love Theme aus „Superman“
The Rebellion is Reborn
Rey’s Thema
Star Wars Main Theme

Not quite for what I had hoped, but still exciting. 2 hours to go!

I would still expect at least one piece from The Rise of Skywalker.

 

As an encore, hopefully.

 

Greetings from the Musikverein queue. ;) 7 People so far (I'm #3).

You're there in person? There's no queue online yet, as far as I can see.

Essentially, the website is throwing non-stop error messages, blocking any other buttons and screens. You cannot click around them, so you have to physically remove them using the website code. They've completely messed it up.
