Dammit! Saw the title of the thread & thought they may be coming back to the UK again...
Rush releasing a live album & DVD? That's unprecedented! |

There was once a time where they had a pattern of releasing a live album after every third album. After the third album, they would in a sense change their sound for a three album period and then release another third album. Nowadays, they seem to be releasing more live albums than studio albums. Not really a complaint though, more opportunities to hear more songs live.

usually after every fourth
rush, fly by night, caress, 2112 - then all the world's farewell, hemispheres, permanent, moving pictures - exit stage left signals, grace, power windows, hold your fire - show of hands presto, roll the bones, counterparts, test - different stages since then I think Neil bought a DV cam and Alex got a mini-disc recorder... |

Thanks for the correction. I knew there was a pattern. Guess I should have double checked before typing.

I saw them on the first time round, but now they're coming to my home town. How much do you think they'll change up the set?

Didn't see them first time around, but I think I will try to catch their Philly show in June.

Since they play certain cities for the second time on this tour, my guess is they'll change it quite a lot, but they'll keep playing as much stuff from Snakes&Arrows... Who knows, we may finally get to hear The Camera Eye live at long last !!!

I got my tix for the Holmdel, NJ show! 2 Rush concerts in 2 years, can't beat it!
But I am pretty disappointed with this 'pre' sale. I was still only able to get seats in the 3rd section from the stage, and not for cheap either! How is a 'regular' guy supposed to get good seats for a concert? It seems like they don't even sell them through public means. I even tried to get 1 ticket in the good seats just to see if it was a quantity thing. I got 1 seat in the back of the 2nd section from the stage, feh. |

I like Rush, my stepson and his Dad are fanatics. According to them, Rush was the first concert at the Joe when it opened way back when, so it is a sentimental choice. I can't see any other reason it would be there, I can't remember the last time a concert was there instead of the Palace, if it had to be indoors.
I doubt it will interfere with the Wings though, they are having way to good a regular season to still be playing in June. Edited by ES335 - January 30 2008 at 20:44 |
