treeduck Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Peart must be pissed that Geddy's got a bigger book tour than he's ever been able to muster! Peart should’ve been doing book signings too but it’s just not in him to meet people like that. If I were him I’d go out of my comfort zone and do a limited book signing fandango. Fans would shit themselves then kill each other for those limited tickets.Peart is really good at hide and seek. Well he's good at hiding but he doesn't bother seeking... You know he sought enlightenment in China's mountains, giving us the gift of Tai Shan . . . . It's a heavy metal masterpiece isn't it?? :banana: One of my first posts, if not very first post, was about my hike up Tai Shan. You can blame that song for bringing me to TRF! (I had several pics of that trip on here too but then photobucket got greedy so now there’s nothing but the post itself)I never used photobucket fortunately. I used that other one which has disappeared now, or I've not used it anyway. Nowadays it's IMGUR or Tiny. There's another one too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apetersvt Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Was hoping for a Washington DC date (I know I wouldn't get one in Richmond where I live). But I have to be in Nashville next week for work. So, I got a ticket for Sunday in Nashville. Flight lands two hours before 'gates'. Will have my fingers crossed for no flight delays. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catch The Mystery Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Announced in an email tonight! Email says tickets are available to Rush newsletter members ? (that is me but I'm not sure how they know) tonight before they go on sale to the general public tomorrow at 9 AM. Philly here I come! That's awesome :cheers: So happy to see he's back on tour :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 I remember when these posts used to be "new dates added to the second leg of the tour!!!!" Basically the same...”new dates added to the second leg of the BOOK tour”. :PBut yeah of course, signing a book vs playing a 2.5-3 hour set. It’s best not to think along these lines 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 97 dollars??? Is he going to play Entre Nous and The Analog Kid? I want some deep cuts for that kind of scratch. Yeah, I swear that it was $85.00 for signings earlier in the summer! I guess 12 bucks is 12 bucks . . . That’s right—retail book price plus sales tax. As opposed to retail book price sales tax and hiring Event Brite to do your ticketing for you so it's really almost $106.

ytserush Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 This might sell out before I decide if I'm up for round two. Already thanked him (not that he remembers) and the only positive I can see is the experience of waiting in line with other Rush fans before I get another 10 seconds with Geddy.

rugen Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Jesus! That bass book tour is more popular than a Rush tour. I don't get how this can brings so many people. I must underestimate the number of musicians out there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doublereeder Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Has anyone done one of his signings? I'm not expecting a photo (even though I've seen people break that rule and it's never looked like a happy photo on Ged's end), but I'd appreciate a little back and forth. I was also looking to get a very short lyric written with the book autograph for a tattoo (I have 3 Rush tats already, one being Cinderella Man lyrics on my ribcage) - I'm not sure how flexible he is during these things or if it's up to him. Maybe there's more flexibility when you're there towards the front of the line? Also, don't want to pay the extra $100 to have someone wait with me and video the signing from the side - have stores been letting people in the store while he's there? This once highly unlikely dream of mine is happening next week and just want to know how to maximize my very short amount of time during it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what the 1 person I know who went one said, your back and forth will consist of him asking your name and you telling him.

apetersvt Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 As long as there are no flight delays (gotta be in Nashville for work) on Sunday, I will be at the Nashville event with Peter Collins and Nick R. For the Q&A portion, thinking about what question I might submit: Thinking, "Nick if you could go back and redo Power Windows and Hold Your Fire", how would you minimize the keyboards/sythns and give the guitars more balls?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a ticket for Chicago as soon as they went live. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
