Your PS3 is region free so feel free to import any of the above games. Having said that, however, we're intrigued to find out about Guitar Hero III's downloadable content will importers be able to download new tracks without an American credit card? If you know, we'd love to find out.
1. As an importer, as I don't live in any of the PSN countries, and user of the US PS Store, I can tell you that you can get an account (pretty much like you can get an European or Japanese account without living there) but you cannot buy ANYTHING without an American Credit Card (And even if the bank is an American Bank, you need an American Billing Address...so International Credit Cards on American banks will probably don't work either).
It would be nice if SCEA (like SCEJ did already) finally released the Pre-paid cards, as you could simply import a few of them and then you're in to pay for some stuff. Until then, importers of American games won't be able to purchase any of the DC available through the PS Store.
