theanalogkid Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 And now it is on the Website. I am wondering what the date will be and would like to check into my remaining vacation time in order to plan whether I should work tomorrow or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Porschetta Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 On 103.5 they said that maybe June 22nd for the Red Rocks show. I'm so sad right now. I woke up expecting to see Rush tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theanalogkid Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 There is a LOT of water coming down right now, all over the state. I may make the trip to Denver anyways and watch ASOH and R30 on VHS/DVD with my friend and get drunk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobodys hero Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 I feel bad for the peeps that flew in and those still in flight. Depending on which story you believe it was either a problem with the trucks in the heavy rain we had last night or there is a lot of lightning up there and there is a safery concern In any case according to RR the trucks are gone, packages went with the band and there will be an announcement soon of a rescheduled date. Hold on to your tix, they will be honored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's better than driving across Florida to Hollywood to see Robert Plant in 1985 and having to turn around after driving on the turnpike 2.5 hours one way. They didn't cancel the show til it was almost door opening time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgeddy05 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I read it was LiveNation that cancelled and not the band (RIAB reported) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerxster Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Wow, i feel bad for everyone that was to go and especially the people who flew in. http://www.redrocksonline.com/ says: "The RUSH concert scheduled for tonight has been postponed due to severe weather conditions".

edgyspice Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 That sucks, especially for people who are flying in. I'm glad that they just cancelled because of the weather, though-- when I saw the thread title I thought, "I hope none of the guys are sick or anything."

Red Porschetta Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Yeah, I think the boys are okay, the weather here is just bad, but it is nothing compared to Rio, at least not right now. Tonight could be different. Maybe they were planning to film the show (I can dream, right?) Hold on to your tickets, we will see them soon!

That was my thought too at first, so I was slightly grateful to find out that wasn't the case. I'm sure they'll reschedule. . .still, I'm sorry for those whose plans were thrown awry.

I think it came down to lightning or possibly even snow. Now, apparently, the weather has lifted a bit and the sun is shining down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR seems to be ALL in the wide open, seats and stage. Other ampitheaters have a roof covering, where shows go on rain or shine (unless in dire circumstances I suppose).

bigyellowdog Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 This really sucks. I was so ready for Rush tonight. I am in Denver on business. I went out and bought a rain coat this morning only to hear the show is postponed something like 20 minutes later. I will at least get to return the jacket. I was scheduled to come back to Denver the week of the 23rd. If the show is going to be on the 22nd, I can somehow manipulate my trip with my job so I can at least see them.

BeOhBe Bob Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 my wife and I saw em on the '07 leg of the tour in Blossom Music Center(08.30.07), and yes it was rain or shine. Blossom's mostly outdoor, with a covering over the ampitheater as you guys mentioned already. The jumbotrons stage left and right were suspended from the ceiling, and without support from below. There was maybe five minutes of drizzle, the preshow tuneage thanks to DJ Booujze was on. Any huge gust of wind could have brought them down, which has to be one of the reasons for the show being postponed. If the trucks can't get there due to the weather, well, that' s something else. My word of advice? Whatever you can do to get to the rescheduled show? DO IT!!!! you will not be disappointed I guaran-damn-tee you that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
