  1. I was honestly surprised when I saw that CA was the opener... It was funny, we were stage side and we could see what was on stage before anyone else
  2. So I went to the Tulsa show and had a blast! By far my favorite show of all time, and I won't give spoilers :) However, it would've been much better if the guy behind me hadn't been a drunk a**hole. So, like a normal person at a ROCK concert along with everyone else in the first 4 rows of our section, we stood up even though we were stage side up in the bowl of the BOK center. It was a great view regardless of whether you were standing or sitting. For about 3/4 of the first set, I jammed out on my air instruments with my three other friends, and then I feel a tap on my shoulder from this guy behind us. He says "C'mon guys sit down, we have great seats." So we kindly oblige, but the people in front of us are still standing, and then we ask them to sit down, but they encourage us to stand back up. So with this in mind, we do that and everything goes back to normal. About 5 minutes later, my friend hears rustling behind him and a spillage. He turns around to see the guy spilled a beer "accidentally" all over his flag he had brought. We think to ourselves, alright benefit of the doubt, its a coincidence. At intermission, my friend leaves and goes to wash out his flag. I talk to the guy during intermission and attempt to explain my side of the story and why we're standing, but he wanted none of it. He was not even that intoxicated at this point, but he said "I asked you all "nicely" to sit down, but you didn't, so shit happens and your friend's seat got wet." I was getting pissed at this point, but remained my cool and tried to talk to the guy a little more to diffuse everything. Yet again he wanted none of it and was making derragatory comments about my size (in terms of weight and height) and wanted to "take this "argument" outside." As an aside: Look, I know I'm a pretty big dude, but get over it. Anyway, at this point, I just turn around and wish him well and start taking photos of the stage. As this happens, I can hear him bitching about us to this lady behind him, and now I'm just done. So, I run to an usher at the top of the arena and explain my story and she was very helpful and pleasant and agreed that this was getting out of hand. During the first song of the second set, she got security to come talk to the guy and he didn't do anything/say anything from there on out. I would've sat down/exchanged seats with the guy if he would've handled the situation differently and gave me and my friends respect or if more than 50% of our section was sitting, but unfortunately that didn't happen. So, TL;DR, what is your stance on standing at concerts? Was I in the right for standing and doing what I did?
  3. So, the more I think about this, they might have two sets where the second set changes every night.... I feel like they may showcase their two major live albums, ESL and ATWAS.... They may rotate cuts from both of those in each night... That would be a friggin awesome setup
  4. It appears that Eugene Levy will be making an appearance in one of the videos...
  5. We're getting jumpy in here. It's all a hoax. A cruel internet hoax So, I'm assumming all of this is fake too.... https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfa1/v/t1.0-9/10409379_10206690689331042_8850925702576342129_n.jpg?oh=40586a5a3a496db22ec549116deb7075&oe=55D493D9&__gda__=1440751924_f5a9d589f326eea4d71967cb9ecb1ff2
  6. The only reason I'm saying that this is legitimate is that two unrelated sources have confirmed the tour book pages.... One source was a member of R40 Spoilers on FB and the other is the reliable Rush_Roadtrips on Twitter... It is what it is (there is a possibility it could be bullshit, but unlikely).
  7. Geez TM, as much as I think CA is decent, we just saw them play NINE CA tunes. Like was posted on twitter, all but two of those have been played R30 and since. How this is chronological from all eras as was promised by the band? Ignored first 3 albums and only play 2112 from 4th which is played EVERY TOUR. If there aren't 4-5 rare tunes without video, this will be second huge disappointing setlist to close out their touring careers. Makes their retirement much easier to accept, cuz surely something is lacking. .
  8. I have a feeling those will be combined into a medley...
  9. The link has been updated for a twitter pic from @Rush_Roadtrip... Should work now...
  10. It's still up there... I'm working on getting the actual image pasted on here... Haven't quite figured out how to do it...
  11. This isn't the order of the setlist, it's just the list of what songs have video projections attached to them...
  12. @Rush_Roadtrips https://twitter.com/...319318407032832 There you have it, this was taken by a fan who recieved his tour book early from VIP Swag Clockwork Angels The Anarchist The Wreckers Headlong Flight Big Money Far Cry One Little Victory Animate Roll The Bones Distant Early Warning Subdivisions Tom Sawyer Red Barchetta/YYZ (together?) The Camera Eye Spirit of Radio/Natural Science/Closer To The Heart Jacob's Ladder Hemispheres Prelude/Cygnus X1 2112
  13. The problem there were four of us going, so I bought 4 tickets forf us, and now I have one to sell... I wish I could trade...
  14. Hey Guys!!! One of my friends bailed on me for my 19 hour cross country road trip to see the opening night show!!! Section 112, Row H, Seat 13... It is Geddy side of the stage right next to the stage!!! http://s1.ticketm.net/tm/en-us/tmimages/venue/maps/agf/61056s.gif I paid $245 for the ticket, and I'm asking exactly that!!! Please PM if interested!!!
  15. It's a good edit. If they do this live, though . . . I think the crowd will be polite but there will be a lot of folks who will be as bummed by the sudden shift out of Prelude as there were when they killed Xanadu with Superconductor. Imagine, though, if they started the intro to Far Cry, but that F#suspended chord announced the Prelude. The crowd would plotz! You know, I never thought of it that way.. It would be insane if they did that!!!
  16. So this is probably gonna come back to bite me, but here is my take on the possibility on this actually happening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R69igyYwk2U&feature=youtu.be
  17. To me you're a genius, to O'Malley you're a genius, but to a genius, you're no genius!!! But seriously, yeah... That would make too much sense
  18. Newark tickets were shipped... WOOO!!! :codger: :dweez: :7up: :ebert: :yay: :banana: :cheerleader:
  19. Thanks for the feedback... I'm gonna try this one out this weekend. Wish me luck and aaaallllloooottt of gatorade.
  20. So what do y'all think of this one? I came up with this one a little while ago... Haven't tried it yet, but wanted to get an idea of what y'all think +1 Drink when: Geddy Introduces a song plays keyboards switches Basses Solo Neil Tosses/Twirls a drumstick Alex Rants Solo Switches guitars Mimes in the microphone Songs Tom Sawyer Red Barchetta, Red Sector A, “Hey!” during 2112 Micellaneous Someone other then the band members comes on stage (does not include cameramen) Explosions/Fire/Flares/Lasers Audience members are air drumming WATERFALL ANYTIME NEIL’S KIT SPINS Waterfall @ “CONCERT HALL” IN THE SPIRIT OF RADIO **Note: I am not encouraging/condoning the abuse of alcohol or heavy drinking... Just a disclaimer. I just thought this might be a fun little thing to create for Ss&Gs...
  21. https://www.facebook.com/DanforthandPape?fref=ts I am the owner of a BLAH BLAH BLAH shirt that looks exactly like Geddy's From S&A tour... This guy has some great stuff!!! I'll definitely will be rocking mine in PHILLY!!
  22. We can always hope I suspect Headlong Flight could be the opener. Especially because they're travelling through their history... Something tells me the first set is going to be newer stuff, chronologically going backward, and then all old stuff in the second set... We probably will have Tom Sawyer open the second set. Headlong Flight would be the only fantastic opener that I could see being possible from all of the new stuff... The only problem I could see is Geddy's voice hitting those high notes to kick off the night...
