ytserush Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Imagine these will sell out, but I have no interest in them. No Neil essays. No band written equipment lists.... Price point higher than the more recent programs which had more pages. Not counting these, I still need an original 2112 program. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not counting these, I still need an original 2112 program. well if you buy the 3 books together, the price per book averages out to be lower than, not higher than the recent programs. and have you seen one of them? I don’t know yet that equipment lists, etc., will not be included. do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking about "Rush - the Complete Tour Books 30th Anniversary 1977-2004", I bought, have, and own it. I think it's an amazing, history, and collector's one.

zepphead Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I bit the bullet today and ordered the set of 3 tourbooks! ....and also 2 t-shirts.I will probably get stiffed for customs duty when they arrive but I don't care - they look cool! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know yet that equipment lists, etc., will not be included. do you? At some point these will be bought and posted online so I guess we;ll find out then.But the books are 16 pages each. The R40 book alone is 36 and all of the previous ones going back to Vapor Trails are at least 30 pages. While I'm curious to find out what they look like, I'm not going to pay a premium for the privilege of finding out. Of course, you're mileage may vary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamas Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 I honesty love how the material keeps emerging, and how fans are so interested in older material. Like the huge concert numbers, there must be a demographic/consumer study somewhere of how much we are willing and wanting to keep buying stuff! Maybe lots of bands have a dedicated fanbase that want to keep growing their libraries, but really, Rush fans must be right up there! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital82 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 well i certainly didn't expect the opening essays. they're very interesting.. dont' know where and how they were found 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Hooray!!! My tourbook collection arrived today along with two rather nifty t-shirts...... and ..... I wasn't stiffed by customs!!! First impressions of the tourbooks are very positive - - Great quality paper - Many interesting photos - A nice intro essay in each by Raymond Michael of the Courier Express - Equipment lists in each tourbook - Tour Dates - Lithograph of the Fly By Night tourbook cover My only minor gripes are that the Fly By Night tourbook is massive - 17" x 12" ... not sure how I am gonna store it!Also the Rush tourbook has no photos and little mention of John Rutsey - somewhat mean considering he took part in the tour up until 25th July. Those aside, these were well worth the investment! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those aside, these were well worth the investment! Rutsey wasn't on the first major label tour(which began 8/14/74) so that's understandable. How long are the essays and are the equipment lists written in Geddy's and Alex's own words? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital82 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 the essay in the first album tourbook seems to be the shortest. probably less than a thousand words. the other two are longer, probably closer to twelve or thirteen hundred words. interesting note in the caress tourbook that said they were gonna shoot a video for lakeside park. anyone here know anything about that? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
