RUSH

Anyone else go?

Was one of the best and certainly LOUDEST Rush concerts of the 15 or so I've been to.

Considering they've been touring for over 30 years now, it's really striking to see them still play with such attitute and power.

Did I say power? Can we say HEAVY

This ain't no Steel Wheels retirement tour

I'm hoping by the weekend I'll get me hearing back.

Have tickets for 7/9 at Mohegan Sun. I may have an extra pair of tickets if anyone is interested.

Should be fun. I saw them at least 25 years ago at the Music Hall in Boston. Great show, and great buzz to go with it.

You could here them at my house, only the Allman Bros. have been louder.
It appeared they did honor the 2100 shutdown. The AB usually just pay the fine.

I went to the show. They sounded great but way too much new material was played. I know they are promoting a new album but it was much more new material than what has been played at previously shows I have seen.

HAMMER TIME!

Yes, it was the SNAKES AND ARROWS tour

I thought the setlist was most excellent. Considering the last tour (R30) was really a greatist hits tour of all old music, pimping the new stuff was right in line.

Also, the new music was excellent. There's only one song they played I didn't favor...as much.

sorry spence but I enjoyed the greatest hits tour more. There was no 2112 or working man, which was disappointing.

HAMMER TIME!

Woulda liked to go but $$$ has simply become way to much of an issue.I really wanna see Black Sabbath and Alice Cooper but,I can barely put enough aside for Louden in Sept.

Luck you Spence.What a fantastically talented band!
