The Buffalo show came to $420 for 4 tickets

See you there Mate!

I scored 4 tickets 4th row center for the Buffalo show!! I kept on dumping tickets for around 20 minutes until they popped up. I had to do a double take when I saw row 4! The closest I've been in 22 shows has been row 10 so this will be a whole new experience. Next....Toronto!!!

3 tickets, Section 2, Row 13. In my 26 years of seeing Rush I've never been on Geddy's side so it'll be like I'm seeing them for the first time!!! Look for us...we'll be the ones Rockin' out!!!!!

http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/012.jpgThis is a story that is too good to be true. On Wednesday my brother-in-law, who works as a manager at Buffalo area grocery store, finds a laptop in the cafe. A guy calls the store and tells him he needs the laptop back but he is in Syracuse because he's the merchandising manager for Rush. My bro-in-law tells him we going to show in Syracuse and we can drop it off for him. The guy is thankful as all hell and says "When you get here we'll make sure you're taken care of." We had no clue what this was going to entail. We were thinking anywhere from a "Thanks for returning the laptop" to meeting the Holy Triumvirate themselves. It was in between the two and it was an experience we will never forget. We start out by returning the laptop to the guy who lost it and then he takes us back to the merchandise semi trailer. We are walking through boxes and boxes of swag and he hands us a bunch of t-shirts, baseball hats, and totes. We were ecstatic at this point until he said, "Do you want a backstage tour?" at which point we pissed our pants! This was the closest chance we will ever have of meeting the band so we had to ask if we could. Unfortunately he said it was little too chaotic at the time we were there so it wasn't possible. We get up on stage and it was a sight to see. It was amazing to see all the behind the stage workings going on. We were then allowed to walk around on stage and take as many pictures as you want (we just couldn't touch the equipment). We were like kids in a candy store and security was getting a little antsy. We were on stage for around 20 minutes just taking it all in...the fine details on Neils drum kit were amazing! The whole experience went by so fast I dont remember everything I saw. This was my 20th time to see the band and hands down this is the best time I have ever had. Enjoy the pics!..... http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/011.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/012.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/015.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/020.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/021.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/022.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/024.jpg http://http//i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/026.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/028.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/029.jpg http://i960.photobucket.com/albums/ae90/jgen848/030.jpg Thanks to my Brother in law and to the Merchandising guys who made it all possible!!!

It was yesterday. I don't know how long its going on for or what's left. I was caught off guard as well. Here's the link and good luck! http://rush.musictoday.com/Rush/calendar.aspx

I was wondering how good the seats are there myself and I found a this Journey video from the NYS Fair on Youtube That's front row center and it looks good to me! The best I could score today is TrackD Row 15. Hopefully the crowd will be good considering this type of venue.
