P-Tor

Calgary, 2007. S&A Tour. Neil's kit would not spin during the solo, so he had to do the electronic part of the solo with his back to the crowd.

I'm finding the more I listen to CA, the less I like it.

Mine also has the "0:00" times on the back. I didn't actually notice it until I got home.

We haven't even heard the bloody album yet and we're already giving them a Grammy???

I managed to get 6th row for Toronto. I'm happy.

Here are some of my unpopular opinions: - Many people around here seem to love Counterparts, but I think it's one of their weakest albums and the songs are mostly forgettable. - T4E is an excellent album. I don't get the hate most people have for this album. - S&A is an awesome album. Again, I don't get all the hate. - I think Red Sector A is an awesome live song. I know it's not a popular opinion but I hope they bring it back. - I wouldn't miss TSOR if they retired it from the setlist. Same for Working Man.

I always crank "Third Eye" (Salival version) by Tool.

I did the VIP thing on the last tour and it paid off BIG TIME! Front Row Centre (!!!) at the Molson Amphitheatre in Toronto! I'll most likely do the VIP option again this time around.

QUOTE (Earwig2112 @ Apr 10 2012, 05:19 AM) This may have been done, but feel free to list any peculiar habits or behaviors linked to the band - and not just simple stuff such as using 2112 as a pin, or in a user name or Email address (ahem). How about as a phone#? A few years ago, when I activated a new cell phone, they asked me if I had a preference for a phone number. Naturally, I asked if I could get "2112" as the last 4 digits of my cell #. The guy checked in the system and said, "Yes that number combination is available". That made my day, to say the least.

S&A was kinda meh for me, so I'll wager Clockwork Angels is gonna rock! Interestingly enough, my opinion is the exact opposite of yours. In that string of albums, I consider CP and VT the weak links while S&A and T4E are the strong ones. Go figure!

QUOTE (snowdog2112 @ Mar 30 2012, 08:12 PM) Actually it looks like Heresy and Face Up were also released as singles off of RTB but didn't chart. That makes six singles from that album. I'm pretty sure Where's My Thing was released as a single as well. In fact, it was the second single after Dreamline and it was released before the album came out.

QUOTE (TheAccountant @ Jan 23 2012, 07:52 PM) How about the way Rush opened their show on the VT tour? Just rip into Tom Sawyer. No 3 stooges, no nothing. Just the lights go down and they start playing. Maybe a little understated but great for me. Actually, they did use the 3 Stooges intro on the VT tour

Whwn the last 4 digits of your cell phone # are 2-1-1-2.

I am in a bunch of the Toronto pictures from July 13, 2010. Being in the front row helps!

QUOTE (HigherWater @ Jun 14 2011, 06:15 PM) Surfing Rush tubes in search of some great Peart moments after all the hating that's been going on. This is just amazing. So powerful and fluid. I think this might be Neil at his peak. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMjWK6Tz78M&feature=related I was there! My first RUSH concert. I remember they transitioned from xanadu into Superconductor.

My cousin in Australia introduced me to Nutella and bananas. Absolute heaven!

That's cool!

QUOTE (rushforumnewuser @ Apr 21 2011, 07:31 PM) How long did Geddy wear the Habs t-shirt? (unusual for him to deviate from the RASH and Gefilter t-shirts, is it not?) Just curious. He put it on after the drum solo
