Snyder80 Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Tom Sawyer - Vapor Trails Tour 2002. It was at the Giant Center in Hershey and Rush was the first rock act to appear in the new arena. People had been complaining about how loud the sound system was during the hockey games and they still hadn't adjusted it because I will never forget that opening crash of Tom Sawyer. We were on the floor right under one of the PA rigs and God as my witness the sound blast was so powerful that I felt my hair move from the sonic vibration. Of the six shows I've been to that moment is still one of the most polarizing for me. My all time favorite band who, at one point in time I thought I'd never see them, were suddenly and explosively there. I almost couldn't believe it. Fought the lump in my throat for at least the first three songs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFEman Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Subdivisions, CA 2013 Tour October 12th, Wells Fargo Center OMG, the whole building shook when Geddy played the first F#... The energy was so palpable and scintillating...Yeah, I remember that. I think I almost fell over. That show was amazing. I also saw them in Atlantic City, so I got to feel what a minor earthquake feels like in a 3,000 seat arena as opposed to an 18,000 seat arena. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate1647 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Limelight, 2008 Snakes and Arrows Tour. I remember just being blown away at how precise everything was. I assumed the DVD's were heavily doctored and what not. First rush song i ever heard on the floor (A completely different experience!!!!!) was TSOR on leg two of the time machine though!
