QUOTE (paul2112 @ Oct 17 2012, 01:44 PM) I know he is a lot older, but Neil Young only plays about 14 or 15 songs. What a ripoff!!! Rush(and other old folks like Springsteen) give good value for the money. I don't think I would want to see Rush indoors without the full production. That said, I think there are great opportunities out there for Rush fans who don't have money to burn, but you have to wait until the show day itself and buy them in the parking lot. So many people get stuck with extra tickets that they will sell them at a discount just to get something for them. Often times they are good seats. In my experience it is very hard to get people to go to a RUSH show. They're just not that popular outside of our little cult. I had to do this on the second leg of the S&A tour. I pulled 32nd row in the pre-sale and tried again during the general sale and pulled 14th row. I let the 32nd row go for $40 each. Lost my ass on them but, somebody was happy for main floor.

QUOTE (Unobtrusive Companion @ Sep 10 2012, 06:54 AM) Who's to say they won't play one set twice in two shows, rather than ABABABA, go ABBABAA or something. Time will tell... Careful there you are getting way to close to ABBA...

QUOTE (Snaked @ Aug 5 2012, 03:31 PM) Why do you need a "companion"? I'm flying to NYC the day before opening night in Manchester, NH by myself to see a show in Times Square then traveling up to NH on my own. I'll know several people there but I certainly don't need another person with me to make the trip enjoyable. Spoken like a true fan...

Well, I will say this... If you can't get in it will be because somebody has a complete copy (barcode and all) of the ticket. Rule #1 never show the barcode to anybody...

Blue Oyster Cult back in '76. Now them were the times!!!

QUOTE (J2112YYZ @ Jun 26 2012, 08:41 AM) If they do play it, the perfect spot would be right after Neil's solo. Alex can do one of his little acoustic things right before it and then go into the song after that. As far as the piano part goes, since they're hiring some people to play the orchestra parts live, why not hire a pianist to play on The Garden? Of course, if they do hire a piano player for the tour, they have to play Available Light as well. The only thing they have to do is play what they want.

First time was May 29th of '76.. O boy what a show back then.

I voted AFTK as it was the first time I got laid.. 15 yrs old yeah!!!!

QUOTE (EmotionDetector @ May 29 2012, 03:31 PM) Yep, as mentioned in another thread, I did have one issue at a Rush show back in 2004, and it explains why I get pissed about people thinking you should sit at a Rock Concert, just for them... On the R30 tour, I went to a show in Toronto and sat in the 300 level of the Amptheatre. I went to the show excited because I had Row 'M', which was the last row of that section, so I knew I was going to get to stand and enjoy. Well...I got to the show, and guess what. They put in a row of seats behind us as a Row 'N'. I knew I was in trouble. Sure enough, an older couple was behind us...and as I was standing and having fun for the first 2-3 songs, the guy behind us taps me on the shoulder and says, "uh, are you going to be rocking out all night?". I was like, WTF? So, I proceeded to do the honourable thing and asked if him and his wife would switch seats with us, that way, they could sit and we could stand behind. Fair enough, right? Well...the wife says, "no, we're not switching". So, I was forced to sit for most of the show, and guess what...they missed all of the encore, and alot of the second set. Big Rush fans right? Obviously they cared that much about the show. That's why I have such a hang up with it. That was my wife's first Rush show, and they completely ruined my night and hers. I seriously could not enjoy myself because of that crap, and she had told me all along that one of the things she had looked forward to was seeing how excited I get at their shows. So...my point is, do what you want...sit, stand, kneel, whatever. Just don't EXPECT the others around you to do the same. That's just how I feel. I have just 2 words for people that ask me to sit... EAT IT!!!

QUOTE (Snaked @ May 25 2012, 10:10 PM)S&A - 07/08 TM - 10/11 CA - 12/13 They've toured 6 of the last 7 years. I'm not complaining just stating the fact that the lackluster sales have a bit to do with over saturation. The tour break down. 2011 TM tour 2010 TM tour 2009 no tour 2008 S&A tour 2007 S&A tour 2006 no tour 2005 1 date for this year (Jan 13 2005) it was taped for Canada for Asia which technically was over (2004-10-01). 2004 R30 So by 6 of 7 years as you said is not correct. Technically 5 of 7 were tours, but one date from a year does not constitute a tour year so I would say the last 4 of 7 years. just saying...

QUOTE (nobodys hero @ May 18 2012, 01:36 PM)The letter to the boys is a good idea! I had planned to see them in Vegas and Arizona as they are bypassing Colorado yet again. Well, I got shit from the box office! They would not sell to me pre-sales and they could care less that I need visually impaired seating. The lady in Arizona was sympathetic but the one in Vegas was a BITCH!!! I would just call back and ask to speak the manager. Don't even give them a chance to ask if they can help. If the manager is not available see if you can get his boss keep going until you get to somebody that can DO something. I pulled that with QWEST a few years back and found myself speaking the secretary of the VP of them. Got what I wanted real quick..

Personally I would write some sort of letter the the boys about this. There is absolutely no excuse for this crap.

All I can say is it is worth a shot and maybe just maybe something good will come.
