Yes its local time in what area or state the show is in, for the ticket sales.
Dee. with no disrespect, I was just being cautious in my response to Bostonhonkytonk so as not to mislead anyone here, especially those who are ordering their tickets from the fan club for the first time, since previously pre-sales from the fan club were scheduled for Nashville time (CST/CDST) up until it was changed to LOCAL time recently. In my opinion only, it's better that they learn from their own individual experiences to know the right time to order than for them to follow what they believed to be true, based on information they've read here at the forum, only to regret it later and be disappointed. Unless the statement you posted is based on an official information given you by Cindy in response to an inquiry on the subject you may have sought from her and not based solely on your own experience, what may have worked for you may not necessarily work for everyone else too. We all have to be very careful with the way we give out informations such as this one so as not to end up be misinforming others.
