  3. In that last picture, Geddy is thinking: Pretty soon, my Rush gal Mika will be sitting in the audience playing the bass along with me. It sure will be good to see her!! ;)

  10. After working all day, I'm still grumbly over this. It seems so simple: there's a Rush.com newsletter that fans can sign up for, and unless I'm mixing my pre-sales up (because goodness knows there's so many of 'em to keep track of), there's one pre-sale that the password thereof gets sent via newsletter to fans. Actual fans of the band could have first dibs on good seats. But no, we've got to fight amongst corporations and all that jazz.* How cool would it be to be able to, via fan code, access a real-time seating chart and duke it out amongst other fans for the seats that we want? Well, actually, I don't know what the best solution is, but it certainly doesn't seem to beputting us through the paces of five pre-sales (know how many hours I'd spent ticket searching? Six, including the time taken to search out passwords) nor doing the $300 fan club thing that lands the buyer in a random spot in the first 15 rows. There's got to be a happy medium, between the days of fans camping out overnight to be the first in line for when tickets went on sale, to now where we gamble with tickets at the click of a mouse. Maybe I'm just bitter because I've been working hard to look really good for Geddy, which my boyfriend is confuzzled by, and Geddy's not going to be able to see me! :P *speaking of jazz, did I tell anyone I just got my very first Fender jazz bass? Candy apple red, and maple fret board, to boot! Think Geddy's 2112 bass! :)

  12. I'm so frustrated this time around with buying Rush tickets, for Vancouver. Last show, Edmonton in September, there were two ticket pre-sales that I was aware of: The Citi credit card one, and the LiveNation one. I readied myself for the LiveNation one, and accidently ended up making plans the morning of the pre-sale, and with getting my time zones wrong, I ended up being half an hour late for it and pressed for time as my friend was waitig for me. It took me only a few tries before I ended up finding tickets that looked really good - and four of them - the closest plaza section to Geddy, and second row. I figured, good enough, and merrily went on my way. Boom, ten minutes flat. This time, I've discovered there have been five different pre-sales for the Vancouver show. I got up early after having to work late in order to be on board for the first pre-sale, the AmEx one. [Not that, I realize now, I have an AmEx card....] The tickets popping up were kind of not that great - middle-distance floor seats, middle-of-section by Alex's side, and absolutely nothing on Geddy's side of the stadium at all. After spending an hour rejecting tickets, I gave up and figured to try the next morning's pre-sale, the LiveNation one. After quite a number of rejections, I finally decided on a floor seat, row 14 in the middle, which seemed pretty good. I was still wanting a seat like I had last time, though, and kept searching, but again, absolutely no options were coming up for Geddy's side, at all. After spending an hour and a half, I gave up again, and told myself, hey, I have a decent seat! Be happy! But I still felt I was missing out.... Yesterday was a Ticketmaster and Rock101 pre-sale, which required passwords, which I could not find anywhere after many frustrating minutes of searching (well, serves me right for not being a member of TicketMaster or Rock101, I guess), so I had to give up on that attempt, too. This morning the tickets went on sale to the general public, so I hopped onto the good ol' internet right away, and finally found some tickets on Geddy's side of the stage - but too far away. Row 17. I noticed there was an option for 'Platinum Seating' and saw there were four front-row seats in Geddy's section (in the plaza) for $485 each. What's a fangirl to do?! How did seats I easily got last time become such a nightmare to try to get this time? How could these seats have been gotten by anyone at all, if anyone's experience has been like mine (no Geddy options)? How am I going to be able to show off my air-bass skills if Geddy's not going to be able to see me in the sea of people on the floor? I don't think the seat I have (centre 14th row) is anything to be dissapointed in, for sure, but I'm so frustrated that I haven't been able to get what I wanted. I'm so done with pre-sales and corporations holding off the best seats for their own interests. I think that fans should be able to get good seats, and it shouldn't be such an ordeal to try to do so. I know I will have an awesome time where I will be sitting (who am I kidding - standing!), but I wanted the chance to make eye contact with Geddy again and have him point to me during 'Tom Sawyer' like last time. Ah well. OK, rant over, and now time to build up my excitement! :)

  16. Hey, this thread is already suspect enough without you go bringing Ted Nugent into it :P Earworming eh? Anyone else strangely aroused? :P While I'm not at all aroused by earworming, I must admit that I am strangely satisfied by earwax removal videos on YouTube. I was at the gym the other day when I saw a commercial for a new earwax vacuum.... I can't say I was satisfied. There was this one scene where a guy shoves a q-tip into his ear canal and it cuts to a animation of the q-tip hitting the membrane in front of his eardrum. I'm pretty sure I started crying, it reminded me a lot of those toe fungus commercials where the little fungus would come lift the nail up like the hood on a car and climb underneath. God, what a nightmare. This so awesome... for about five days, we were talking about people's assholes and basically, "how much" can fit inside a woman's tailpipe. Now, we're talking about earwax. How about this for gross... about ten years ago, I was deer hunting with a buddy of mine and for a variety of reasons, he was really pissing me off. So, after I shot a deer, and had the cavity open to remove the innerds, I threw a handful of guts at him. Hit him in the face. Now, let's see what kind of reaction TBR gets from that one! If we're going for "gross factor" now, NOTHING beats an abscess blowing buckets of pus. Saw - and smelled - my share of these during my tenure as a vet tech years ago. The odor is indescribable; it'll put you off your appetite for days after. And you cannot get it out of your clothes. Custard anyone? :D

  22. I can remember hating a car that much.....1982 Buick Piece-O-Shit, it was. Wow, mine is a GM too! Yeah, the POS line is a pretty bad one. We have a 2005. I don't think we'll buy another one. When the Replace Engine light came on, we replaced the engine. We were very thankful that GM put a Replace Engine light in their car. Otherwise, we might not have noticed that it seized while driving. Thats brutal. I know someone who had a car that was so fraught with problems that they used to leave it unlocked wherever they went praying that it would get stolen. It never did. Oddly enough it was also a GM, a Chevy I believe, maybe a Citation... Even a successful thievery of a Chevy Citation would qualify one for the "Stupid Criminals Hall of Fame".

  23. :goodone: "The Final Cut" is an amazing and underrated album, that is, indeed, a fact! :goodone: If by that you mean horribly depressing and therefore the only Pink Floyd album that is completely unlistenable despite stellar production values, then I agree too. Seriously though, The Final Cut is PInk Floyd's Vapor Trails, except with superior sound quality, but the album is still pretty bad - should have been a Roger Waters solo album. If anything, it's way overrated, even though it's generally considered to be Pink Floyd's worst. That, my friends, is a FACT. ;) Yeah, because you say so, holy overlord of piffle and nonsense. Shouldn't you be in another room pissing all over VT, coz that schtick is so hilarious, and is not old at all. Some of us love The Final Cut. Get over it. The thread is about individual forum member favourite Floyd songs, is it not? Or is just another vehicle for the archduke of progland to lord over us??? Hmmmmmmm???????????? Oh yeah, ahem, ;) And your top 50 sucks! Truly. HA&S, dude, stop beating around the bush and tell me how you REALLY feel. ;) alright, alright, i know i'm way too in love with my opinions. too late to change that now. but just MAYBE you think my top 50 list sucks because its awesomeness terrifies you? :P ok, prolly not. if i ever do another radio show, i am SO using the nickname "the archduke of progland" :ebert:

  24. You should be in good shape row 10 or closer. Worse I got was row 14 for Vegas with a 12:09 time stamp with a noon start. The problem with Vegas was that a bunch of seats are held for the big rolls in the casino. At intermission we moved up several rows because there were a whole bunch of empty seats closer to the stage so it worked out OK.

  41. I had the same experience for Vancouver.I tried presales but was not happy with the seats so i waited till the pubic onsale and we couldnt get 2 tickets in the first 10 rows on the floor.the last 3 tours to vancouver we got 5 row 4th row and last time 2 nd row ,so we didnt get tickets for this tour.We have a 5 hour drive to get to Vancouver and unless we are close enough for the best experience,it just wasnt worth it to us.We will wait for the DVD.I have seen them 9 times and my son has seen them twice. Those platinum tickets prices that Ticketbastard is selling close to the stage at 3 times the face value is beyond belief!

  44. I agree. One reason he sounds so great are the songs they chose. Personally I loved ALL the PoW stuff Geddy is no fool. The Time Machine setlist was rather ambitious vocally, and of all people, he had to be the first to notice the strain, considering he's the dude doing it every night - lol. Still, it was a valient effort and far from disasterous. It's just a shame they didn't catch a better show on DVD. Having said that, one of the most impressive things about the Clockwork setlist is the choice of songs with regards to his vocals. He really shines on this tour. Bravo, Geddy!
