    This Saturday in Atlantic City will be my 24th show. First show was back in 1996 on the Power Windows Tour. I hope I get to see them twice more this leg, Hershey & Saratoga...but we shall see...

    I was also wondering this too. I have searched and searched and searched...nada...zilch...nothing. Someone must have filmed it... :(

    You are so welcome!!! I had the wonderful opportunity of a front row ticket back in 2008 in Hershey, PA...in front of Alex...by another huge Rush fan who couldn't make the show and only charged me the face value of the ticket. It was absolutely the best concert experience I have ever had...bar none. It is almost like they are playing the show just for you. I know for a fact or at least I like to think that Alex made eye contact with me. It sounds goofy and sappy, but it made my night!!! And I will take you up on that offer of every round on you if we ever do cross paths.

    So sorry about that...that never even crossed my mind that someone somehow could use the barcode from the pictures to make copies of the tickets. <img src='<!--url[0]-->default/sad.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='default/sad.png' /> Hopefully eshine and carnies didn't have any issues... Oh don't worry, they made it in fine. Me ande vprtrls talked to them before the show and I told them I was mad because I really wanted those tickets default/tongue.png Glad to hear. I am so happy someone got a chance to use them. I'm so ticked off at hurricane Sandy. Ruined my whole weekend of Rush...

Here is a photo of them... http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8328/8125021395_6f3d4b5878_z.jpg I was planning on going to Cleveland this weekend from NJ but due to hurricane Sandy, I will have to cancel my plans. I have to worry about my basement flooding and not actually being able to get back to NJ due to possible cancelled flights on Monday. I will charge face value, $96 per ticket, plus shipping. PayPal would be the preferred method of payment. PM me or leave a reply here and I will get right back to you. I will overnight them via FedEx with Saturday delivery. I am really bummed out about this... ...but hope a couple Rush fans can put them to good use. Dude, you make me proud to be a fellow Rush fan! Rock on! Thanks!!! A fellow Rush fan once did me a favor by NOT overcharging for a front row ticket he had for the Hershey show on the Snakes & Arrows tour he was unable to make...so figured why not pay that back? It is really killing me not to be going.

    QUOTE (tripdad @ Oct 26 2012, 12:44 PM) I have to ask...How did you manage to score these tickets? I got them from StubHub on Tuesday. I was shocked to see them as I have been scouring for front tixs at a decent price.
  10. byoungjr
    They are sold!!!
  11. byoungjr
    I am working with a buyer right now. I will let you know if that doesn't work out.
  12. byoungjr
    I have a possible buyer...

    6. Headlong Flight needs to be added to ANY setlist they do after this tour. It just simply rocks and they tear it up. This was by far the best song of the night when I saw them in Philly and Newark...and hopefully in Cleveland.

    Question for anyone that attended the Newark show on Saturday night. What was written on the sign Geddy was referring to at the end of 2112 when he said "And that's a f***ing sign"? I was in the 12th row of section A and couldn't see it. As for the show, it absolutely rocked, gremlins and all. This being my 23rd time seeing them, I think this may have been my favorite. Grand Designs & Territories were the highlights for me in the first set. I can't help myself...I'm a Power Windows fanatic. The Clockwork Angels set was fantastic. The Anarchist, my personal favorite from Clockwork, was a highlight of the second set. And much to my surprise, Wish Them Well went over really well. The overall best song of the night I thought was Headlong Flight. They kicked up the energy on that one a notch or two and it really showed. I'm hoping it remains a permanent fixture in their setlist in the future. The best way for me to describe the night...energy, fun, excitement, fantastic musicianship...in short, a Rush show!!! Rush rocks!!! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8330/8112460980_2429d466fe_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8190/8112450809_f26806cd6c_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8331/8112448675_14aa4999f7_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8053/8112441147_a3416a0e3b_z.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8187/8112421797_c43fd1fe48_z.jpg

    QUOTE (Coltonz @ Oct 16 2012, 01:54 PM)Well my tickets are downloadable apparently, but it says they won't be available for download till tomorrow.. I too have used StubHub and haven't had an issue. Although for the tickets I picked up last week for the Philly show, I had the same issue as you are having now. They were not available to download until a day after I completed the transaction. When the day came to download the tickets, they still were not available. I promptly called StubHub and within a few minutes I was sent an email with the tickets. It worked out well and their customer service was very helpful. Enjoy the show!!!

    Great photos!!! Thank you for sharing. I was there up in a balcony suite and had a fantastic time...rocking and singing all night long.

    QUOTE (ucsteve667 @ Oct 13 2012, 01:01 PM) Grand Designs, Territories, and The Pass made my year... and Headlong Flight was all I was hoping live and more I hear you. Those songs were highlights for me along with the songs off of Clockwork. Can't wait to see them in Newark!!!

    QUOTE (lerxt1990 @ Oct 13 2012, 11:01 AM) Old Lerxt has been seeing them a long time. Gotta love these guys. Show was great. That's all. I agree...show was fantastic last night in Philly...even from the balcony suites way up high!!!

    I lucked out back in 2008 on the Snakes & Arrows tour when someone was selling a front row ticket at Hershey Stadium...for face value. I was just right of Alex's mic stand (facing the stage) and it was quite the experience. I was probably 6 or 7 feet from the stage but the stage there was quite high so it made it seem a bit further. All in all...it was worth it, especially for face value. It sounds goofy to say, but the eye contact I made with both Alex and Geddy really made the show that much more special and I also got a nod from Geddy when I believe he saw my Spinal Tap tshirt I was wearing. This was the tour he had the mini Stonehenge stone on his keyboard which must have been a Spinal Tap reference. Would I do it again? Sure would...

    They are playing songs from 11 of their 19 studio albums going back to 2112. "Every sector"...maybe not but that's not that bad of a spread. Plus in this day and age there is no reason not to do a little research to see if the setlist is up to ones standards and then deciding whether or not to pick up tickets.
