The test docks you points if you haven't been to 10 or more concerts. That's a little harsh, if you ask me. (It's also why, apparently, I didn't score 100  )

I've seen them every tour since Presto and twice during the VT Tour (once in Montreal, the other time in their hometown of Toronto, magical evening outdoors with the full moon right above the CN Tower behind the stage!!!), so that's 7 times for me. ------------- "One likes to believe in the freedom of Music" - Neil Peart, The Spirit of Radio |

Guess I could have racked up some more concerts if I was a wee bit older...  only 5 for me. twice for RTB tour, once counterparts, once T4E, once Vapor Trails. |

First Rush gig: 1979 at Pinkpop Festival in Holland (Hemispheres tour) with the famous hurted finger from Alex ..I was 18 years old in those days.
Then all Rush tours from Permanent Waves until Presto and finally the R30 tour so 9 times ... I am still very glad with that because it's an excellent substitute for not having seen early Genesis and ELP

That's why I am so glad with the triple DVD Replay, it's an excellent view on the great concerts by Rush in the early - and mid-Eighties: everything between rock and roll and symphonic prog, inspired, innovative, excellent musicianship, wonderful interaction between fans and the band and a sophisticated lightshow |
.. indeed fantastic NaturalScience!Posted By: Angelo

Good on ya! I have to live with having seen 'm live only twice. Guess you were lucky to know them before they decided to come to Europe only once every 11 years... ------------- http://www.iskcrocks.com" rel="nofollow - ISKC Rock Radio I stopped blogging and reviewing - so won't be handling requests.

I first saw Rush on the All The World's A Stage Tour
June 2nd at the Free Trade Hall in Manchester, when amongst other great things they played an early version of Xanadu! Set List: Bastille Day Anthem Lakeside Park 2112 Xanadu By-Tor and the Snow Dog The Necromancer (Under The Shadow, Return of the Prince) Working Man Finding My Way Drum Solo Encore: Fly by Night In The Mood What You're Doing Great days....though some idiot shouted "Get on with it!" during the atmospheric intro to Xanadu, right next to me he was, he wasnt 10 seconds later.... |

You must have missed another question, because I was never at a Rush concert but still squeezed a 85 % out of the test, to many bad questions BTW.
I did a Bowie test, and those were really tough questions. ------------- I'm always almost unlucky _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Id5ZcnjXSZaSMFMC Id5LM2q2jfqz3YxT |
