Yeah, many congrats...so this album may well be one of those soundtrack-to-life albums, always tasking you back to this week.

Disco

Thanks! I'd never thought of that. I guess this could mean more than just another album for me!

Mine has been dispatched in the post - expect it to arrive tomorrow.
May come home at lunch time and have a listen.

Nice to be able to leave work like that!

 

I am the same way. My work knows me well enough that if the office was on fire and I said "Folks - I have to run out on a Rush errand" nobody would even think of saying something.

Funny story for those of you that have the album release impacted by school...

Years back I'm in university - ROLL THE BONES is released on the day I have an 11 o'clock calculus exam *shudder*.

I find a record store near my place that opens at 9:30... so the plan is to pick up Roll the Bones and listen to it on the bus ride top school for my exam.

So I'm standing out side the record store... 9:30 arrives - there are staff members inside but not opening yet. I patiently wait til about 9:40 and they are still not open so I start (gently at first) knocking on the plate glass window trying to get their attention wondering why they aren't open - but nobody even looks at me to acknowledge they can even hear my knocking.

I start to get pretty cheesed off - usually I wouldn't be so impatient but I am running a tight sked trying to get to an exam on time... I start knocking more loudly pointing at their sign and saying "YOUR SIGN SAYS YOU OPEN A HALF HOUR AGO! WHATS THE STORY?!"

Anyways 10am passes and the dorks inside are still stocking shelves and stuff but still haven't opened up. I am on the verge of giving up when a cop car screeches to a halt behind me...

Long story short I'm in the back of a frigging squad car with the police giving me a bit more sass than they really have to - as I try and explain my situation and wondering why exactly the staff of the store called the cops on me in the first place.

I managed to talk my way out of it, find another store near by that was open and sold me the CD, listened to the CD for the first time on the bus ride and *barely* made it to my exam on time. If I recall correctly I flunked that exam with flying colors but damn was I ever happy to have my hands on the latest Rush album!

Just another memorable Rush release day for me - I imagine tomorrow can only go more smoothly. LOL

I think I"m going to wait 'til the weekend just to test my patience. Plus, Once the cellophane is tore off, the excitement is just a memory.

Can anyone else wait 'til Friday??

 

I picked up enough bourbon to get me through the first few listens....

ONE HOUR to go!

 

I know I won't be able to properly BLARE it at the office - maybe I'll hang out in the store parking lot for an hour and listen to it in the Jeep instead.

 

Oh the sweet horrific anticipation of it all! I feel like a deer in headlights! I know how that rabbit feels!

 

*explodes*
