circumstantial tree Posted January 23, 2005 Author Share Posted January 23, 2005 I shouldn't really complain, I guess. I've been able to attend the first two conventions. However, the last couple of years, I've been plagued with problems that prevent me from going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Go to rushcon.org and poke around. They still have the agenda from this past summer, and a picture gallery, which will give you an idea of what it's about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, Paganoman, It's a family friendly event just so you know. But it usually begins Friday night with a "mixer" where you get to meet other fans. Afterwards, some people go out in groups to see Toronto and visit the Orbit Room, Alex's bar. On Saturday there are the usual games and contests, a tour of Rush related sites including Anthem Record's office where you will see Juno Awards, etc..., Yonge Street (where a portion of the video for Subdivisions was filmed), City Hall (the site of the Moving Pictures album cover), and more.... There is also an auction where proceeds go to benefit the Daily Bread Food Bank. You can donate all kinds of items as well as bring canned goods, etc... Saturday night is traditionally the night of a Rush Tribute band. In the past, Rush tribute bands can send the committee some of their music and then the committee will judge who will "win" that coveted spot on Saturday night. Sunday, other events take place (perhaps the walking tour I mentioned above). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circumstantial tree Posted January 23, 2005 Author Share Posted January 23, 2005 The website is currently being updated. Right now, you will only see things regarding last year's event. I would only use that for general info as to what kinds of things take place there. The site may be updated as of tomorrow, but if not, then it should be sometime during the week. Right now, I'm just curious as to what will be different this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
