  1. Here's my theory - the "missed the memo" theory.

     

    Let's assume Mondays are announcement days. It was leaked on TM on a Monday. There has been info posted that it will be released on a Monday in January. Maybe whoever made the mistake (TM HQ, TM East Coast, Anthem) was just coming off Xmas break and the last he/she knew, the info was getting released on 12/29. So it got posted.

     

    I'm not sure if you're being serious here or not but leaked concert dates happen for just about every band these days. Tour info travels so fast now because of the internet. It's not like years ago where it was easier to keep a lid on things until the official announcement. There is no "missed memo" or ticketmaster employee screw up, it's just the internet doing it's thing.

     

    But it wasn't leaked on some forum or fan site or news agency. It was leaked by the official ticket outlet first (Boston & NYC dates) and then expanded upon by others. Somebody at Ticketmaster either made a mistake or there was a planned leak between Rush management and Ticketmaster.

  5. The more I think about it, Jacob's Ladder seems ideal.

     

    It's a long, epic song that a lot of people would go nuts over.

    It's mostly instrumental.

    The few vocals are not straining on Ged's aging voice.

    It would allow for some new video to play along with the song instead the same old, same old.

     

    Just a thought....

  6. Two rather obscure ones; Prime Mover and Wish Them Well.

     

    I really like HYF and PM is my favorite song off that album. When I saw the tour live, I was blown away by how much I liked the live version. Especially love how they changed up the vocal sequence at the end.

     

    WTW was an okay song for me, but live - whoa - it kicked butt!

  7. I'm curious. Where did the song "Presto" rank on rushpetition.com just before the The Time Machine Tour? I know it's a little ways back but hoping somebody hear remembers. That was definately a song they had never played live so it had to be on the list.
  8. From NJ - about an hour out.

     

    Saw them at Brendan Byrne on P/G, PowerWindows, Presto.

     

    Saw them in Newark from CA.

     

    My graduating class of about 180 in the mid 80's had quite a few followers. I believe there were about 8-10 seniors who filled their bio quote from Rush.
