HalfwayToGone Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 If I lived closer to Cleveland I would have tried for a ticket. IMO definitely worth it, especially since you get to sit in on the Q & A thing with Alex also there. No brainer. I’m just too many hours away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. JD Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Tickets are already showing up on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. JD Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) I was able to get a ticket through their weird lottery system. Did anyone else? We can have a mini TRF meetup during/after the event if anyone's interested. There is supposed to be a Rushcon sponsored party after the RRHOF event; I haven't heard any details but let me know if you would like them, I'll ask someone. And take photos !!! I got a notice about the RushCon event. It included a meet and greet with Alex and “VIP Acess” to the book signing. From what I understand, there were only 30 tickets available for it. I’m sure they sold out in minutes (or minute!) Edited January 16, 2019 by Mr. JD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What fun to speak with Alex and Geddy the same day, though. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytserush Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 The weather may not be cooperating for travelers it seems. Hope someone records the Q&A.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 The weather may not be cooperating for travelers it seems. Hope someone records the Q&A.. It is going to be a Facebook live broadcast showing up on the RRHOF page! And it will be carried live on SiriusXM, classic vinyl channel 26, with several rebroadcasts throughout the week. If I can get it somehow I will put it up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCounterRevolution Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) I was able to get a ticket at 9 AM yesterday and drive out to Cleveland from Pittsburgh.

First time I got to meet with Geddy. Super pumped. We reserved a hotel on Sunday and were not able to get tickets online...we went on faith anyway and were able to buy two tickets at the door...God is amazing...he told us to go...we went...and a desire of my heart was fulfilled...We came from Pittsburgh too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 5-3992 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Well it looks like the ink is smudging now after opening the book a couple of times. Anybody know anything about protecting glossy paper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurabw Posted January 21, 2019 Author Share Posted January 21, 2019 Well it looks like the ink is smudging now after opening the book a couple of times. Anybody know anything about protecting glossy paper?Not a lot you can do, unfortunately. Because the paper is gloss the ink just sits on top of it, as opposed to an uncoated paper where the ink would soak in and be less likely to smudge. And if he had just used a regular ball point pen that would have helped as well.I guess just leave the book open and over time it should probably dry.

It was open on the back seat of the car for the drive home. I wasn't taking any chances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfwayToGone Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I think I waited about 10 minutes when I got my book signed. No smudge as long as you don’t fondle it too much. I have the DVD from a signing with Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, and that one I was too impatient, so a tiny bit of ink got transferred to the inner surface of the outer slipcase, but the signatures still are fine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
