May do that. Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah, I even put "Thanks Liam!" on the ends of that LA Forum Priority Mail box I sent. I tried everything I could think of..... :-)

I did. Talked to someone there that said they would forward to the tour manager, but that was all they could guarantee. But, figured it was a longshot anyways since it was the last night. Phoenix also said that they forward when contacted via email, but that didn't work either. I think sometimes it is just chance based on who is working there at the time.

Got my 2112 back yesterday returned to sender from Irvine, so that is everything now. And yes, I only sent the album jackets, not the vinyl! :-) No, have never gotten anything signed by the band. But, it's all good. At least my good friend was one of the success stories. Can't say I didn't try hard enough.... :-)

Got my LA package back yesterday, unopened and stamped "Return To Sender". At least my Exit...Stage Left LP wasn't crushed!

Some good news to report! A good friend of mine who also sent to Detroit and New Jersey but got those back unsigned sent try #3 to Portland. He got his Signals LP back signed by all three. Alex did the personalization. His first Rush show ever was on the Signals Tour, so he was thrilled!

#6 LA Forum tracking also marked as "being returned to sender" today. So, that is it for me. Wish I had all of that money I spent on shipping back now.... :-)

My Irvine package's tracking got marked "Refused/Return To Sender" today, so #5 will probably be coming back. Sent 2112 LP there. I did send #6 to LA Forum, but I suspect the same will happen with that one or I won't see it at all. Sent Exit...Stage Left LP there. Oh well.....LONG LIVE RUSH!

Yeah, I guess we haven't seen any successes from there. Mine didn't come back return to sender, but no way to be sure if it made it to the band or not. I even emailed Phoenix before sending and they replied with this: "Yes, you can send a package to the US Airways Center and it will be passed along to the tour manager. Thank you. "

Well....Phoenix wasn't meant to be....received the package back with no cardboard inserts, no note, no sharpie but my Permanent Waves LP was included...unsigned. Although, now I should probably call it Pancaked Waves because it was flattened and bent a little more. Failure #4. I did send backup to California just in case, so there is still hope yet......maybe try #5 will be it..... Jeff

Anxiously waiting for my LP from Phoenix. Please let the fourth time be the charm!! Out for delivery now....so will hopefully find out later. Fingers, arms, and legs crossed.

You sure she didn't write "Hi Geddy! Thanks for everything! Love, Apollo"?

I included a note of thanks with all 3 of my failures so far this tour and also in the Phoenix package I sent. Haven't had any return activity from Phoenix yet, but still hoping....

Happy to see all of the successes! Congrats! -Jeff

My package was delivered to Phoenix today! Really hoping it makes it to RUSH this time! (4th time is the charm, right???) At least I know it made it to the venue....

Does Phoenix accept. I found a old list of venues that supposedly did not accept. San Jose and US Airways were two of them. I sent something off to San Jose. I figured what the heck it can't hurt Emailed Phoenix and they said they would pass on packages to the tour manager. My Perm Waves LP is on its way there for try #4. Used USPS Priority Box this time and sharpie included. Fingers crossed.
