Cool.

There's a very fleeting moment in the video where you can see me. You've got to freeze frame it very specifically!

 

Looking forward to getting the professional photo. Long & McQuade said they'll be sending out a gallery link as soon as Anika's team has the photos ready. The poster has already made its way into a frame.

Interesting how she stayed behind a table the whole time....or so it seemed!  No hugs and kisses from Anika!

Can you blame her?  She's pretty popular now!

I give her full props for taking a middle ground approach - between Neil's non-attendance and Geddy & Alex's approachable stance.

I think she probably is grasping how passionate Rush fans are too, not only of the music but the band itself now that she is part of this journey.

Trekkies have their uniforms as do many male Rush fans. Band t-shirt, jorts, white or black socks, and sneakers of the opposite color. You can pick them out of a lineup with no difficulty.

1996:  One of the alternate jurors in the Clinton Whitewater trial wore a Starfleet Commander's uniform to the trial every day.   She was eventually expelled because she spoke to the media during the trial.  No one had a problem with her attire.

Neil was always 'the new guy' - Anika is the new girl now.

I'm still trying to figure out a fan we met in Philadelphia for Geddy's bass book signing in 2019 !  He was really outgoing and it was fun to talk to him but he was in full Parrothead gear- Leis, hawaiian shirt, and grass skirt over his jeans.  He told me it was his party outfit and he was there to party; that seemed to work but he stood out that day.  If its anyone here- it was fun talking to you!  Mahalo!
