Disk98 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 i wasn't even a thought.Your parents must have been younger than you are now! That is true in my case. Parents were still in elementary school during AFTK I believe. ....My mother was just born that year… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrinx Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I was at all of the early tours. I kept the ticket stubs and next day concert reviews from most shows I attended. I should dig them out and post them here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 My mom was born in '34. It makes me laugh to think of her at a Rush show. She's more a Patsy Cline kind of gal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should dig them out and post them here.That would be cool. I still have the tour book from the Permanent Waves tour but I think that's the only thing I kept from back in the day. Not sure why that is all I kept but I have it in the attic somewhere.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombstone Mountain Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Can't remember what The Weapon was like, maybe because we had no 3-D glasses and we saw it only in one-half-D. ;)Or because you were drinking tons of beer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ancient all around.Yeah, my dad . . . quite a bit older than my mom. He'd be 99 if he was alive today. I guess I'm lucky he still had some coal in the ol' furnace . . . can't imagine him at a Rush show, either. He probably thought Bobby Vinton was too loud.

Syrinx Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have the reviews. Now I just have to remember to bring them to work and scan them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rushman14 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 My first Rush concert was AFTK with UFO opening 10/1/77. I spent $10 and was 8th row center at the Santa Monica Civic. It was my 4th concert after Jethro Tull, Yes and Led Zeppelin. It's vague but I still have memories of being blown away by Bastille Day, Xanadu and 2112. Needless to say it was pretty life changing for this then 15 year old. Little did I know, these same 3 guys would still be my favorite band 37 years and 58 Rush shows later. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have spent much much time in the great state of Texas in my lifetime. Was just there (Lufkin) for 3 weeks last month.... :) Agreed! But my first shows were in the Midwest. I grew up in St. Louis and used to see them in my hometown, Chicago, and KC, among a few others. In recent years I see them mainly in Texas, but am blessed to be able to travel to see them elsewhere from time-to-time. If they do tour in 2015 and they add some dates in Europe, I have promised myself I will be making a trip across the pond for a show somewhere over there. Where is not really a big deal. PS If you come back this way, give me a holler. I always have some cold Shiner, a well used barbeque pit, and a fantastic view from the porch.
