The tour schedule included concerts at outdoor amphitheaters and arenas along with appearances at state fairs in Minnesota (Aug. 27), New York (Sept. 2),and an Aug. 31 stop at the Great Allentown Fair in Allentown, Pa. which celebrated its 158th year of operation. The top gross among the reported concerts came from a two-performance engagement at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colo. The Denver-area outdoor venue sold more than 16,000 tickets for both shows (Aug. 16, 18) grossing just over $1.5 million. The largest amphitheater crowd for a single performance came from the Houston market with 15,225 fans in attendance at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion on Sept. 25. Among the arenas on the schedule, the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas produced the top gross with $993,351 in sold tickets for a concert on Aug. 14. The best attendance among the arenas was at Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio. The 20,000-seat venue's Aug. 29 performance drew 11,402 fans. This year's Time Machine Tour is the first major concert outing for Rush since the Snakes & Arrows Tour in 2007-2008 that grossed over $52 million. The Canadian rockers, who are currently working on a new album to be released in 2011, are the 2010 recipient of the Legends of Live Award to be be presented at the Billboard Touring Conference in New York City on Nov. 4." - http://www.billboard.com/#/events/hot-tours-rush-toby-keith-brad-paisley-1004123755.story - Billboard.com , October 21, 2010

Now that the Time Machine Tour is over, the question on many fan's minds is whether the tour was filmed. The answer is...yes and no. Unlike recent tours in which concert DVD's were filmed using multiple additional cameras, all shows this tour were apparently filmed using the same number of cameras. Although his comments are ambiguous as to when any footage will be released, Geddy addressed filming the Time Machine Tour in a recent interview with Brazil's TV UOL:

"We record every night. We don't film every night but we have a lot of cameras around. So invariably by the time this [tour] is finished we'll put together some sort of live representation of it. What form that will take I'm not sure yet." - Geddy Lee, http://tinyurl.com/3522oyc - Brazil's TV UOL , October 8, 2010
