MMCXII Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Regina because it was a small venue with little security. I walked right in in the afternoon and watched the setup from the stands for a bit. I saw Neil and his partner ride their bikes right in to the concourse area. My second row seat in front of Geddy didn't hurt either! Also Red Deer was special and TO in 2010! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The Gorge AmphitheatreYes...and no. On the T4E Tour it was perfect. Calm...the most beautiful sunset... So perfect it drove Neil to write about it. On the VT tour, however, it was super windy. The riggings were swinging...sound was bad. Not nearly as good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see either of those tours, but Time Machine was fantastic!It is a hit or miss venue for sure. Time Machine and T4E were both beautiful nights, but I can also remember the windy ones (VT and Snakes and Arrows) with the sound being affected by the wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty disappointed they're not playing this time around, it brings in a pretty large crowd and the band seems to really like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bard Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I thought it was pretty much universally accepted in the concert masses that the 3 best outdoor venues (and I always maintain outdoor is ALWAYS better than indoor for acoustics, ambiance, fresh air, and general experience) in the entire US of A are Red Rocks, The Gorge, and the Santa Barbara Bowl. I'd kill to see Rush at the SB Bowl, lol. But that's as likely as Rush playing a House of Blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troutman Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Hollywood Bowl. Best outdoor venue in LA.Rock-n-roll at the Hollywood Bowl!!!! Thats one venue that I have always wanted to see a concert, They played at a place down that way but I forget the name of it. I believe they played there during the GUP tour.

Thats one venue that I have always wanted to see a concert, They played at a place down that way but I forget the name of it. I believe they played there during the GUP tour. Hollywood Bowl is an epic venue. Seen many great shows there, including my best Rush show on the SnA tour in '07. If you're talking about the Fabulous Forum, yeah they played there on the GuP tour. I have seen many many shows there over the years, lots of Van Halen gigs especially. You can't be a true blue SoCal citizen and not have seen something at the Forum. That said, until recently it was a shithole venue in a shithole neighborhood. Now it's been renovated by the MSG corp, and the acoustics are the best in LA indoors. Still a crappy neighborhood though. But the street cart vendors serve the best LA-style hot dogs on the planet. :) Edited April 1, 2015 by Van Squalen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GabesCavesOfIce Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Massey Hall when they recorded ATWAS!! That's where their final show should be. I vote Rose Bowl. 100,000 Rush fans saying goodbye. That would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very same place I'm going to the R40 tour date in a few months. Irvine is...ehhh. It's a SoCal fixture. The last time I was there was in '92 for the Roll the Bones tour. It's widely panned, but it's cheap and everybody in south LA or San Diego hits the shows there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WIDE-ANGLE WATCHER Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Hospitality Point... 1997... outdoor...on Mission Bay...in San Diego...for the ambiance.
