Absolutely awesome at the Palce last night. I wasn't originally too excited about hearing a lot from the new album, but it ended up being a highlight for me. The string section was an awesome addition and we really loved watching the two cello players rocking out; they clearly were having a blast! I especially enjoyed The Garden, which is my favorite cut from the new disc, even though I am a hard core rocker. The three Neil solo's were a cool switch up and Geddy was "on it" all night. All in all, as a 35+ year Rush fan, I loved each and every minute of it. Bashton

And I meant 30+ concerts, not my age! lol Actually I am 50+ and I was at the concert with my Son who is 28. Bashton

First chance I've had to sign in since the concert. Being a 30+ concert veteran, all I can say is WOW, what an amazing show! LOVED the Time Machine concept and the various vintage pics that were thrown in; lots of memories there! All of the video was cool, especially that closing bit! Can't remember The Camera Eye being played live for a loooong time. (my all-time favorite Rush song). Loved the variety of songs and the lighting was absolutely mind-blowing. I was somewhat surprised that Geddy was still hitting plenty of "high" notes, actually a whole lot more than I thought he would. Bottom line; all three of them were superb and it sure looked like they were having a good time. Heck, I even saw Neil smiling...quite a few times. THANKS for an outstanding evening! Bashton
