Bad news, dude. The show starts at 7:30, not 8:00. That's a countdown to the first time Geddy says "Hello, Albuquerque! Thanks for coming out! We've got about a million songs to play..."

...followed a little later by a selection from;

 

 

"We'd like to take you back to our xth album now"

 

"We're going to take a little break now to go and get some brain surgery"

 

"Thank yoouuuuuu!"

 

"Thank youuuu very much"

 

"Thank you very kindly, goodnight"

 

 

The new one for this tour will probably be:

 

"We'd like to thank you for coming out and celebrating our past, present and future with us" or "...for stepping into our time machine with us"

You forgot:

 

"You guys were awesome tonight! Hope to see you on down the road some day!!"

Of course, how could I forget?

 

If it's a time machine maybe Alex's rants will return?

Lit up with anticipation

We arrive at the ticket counter.

The sky is still dark, nearing dawn

and it's almost pre-sale time..

 

Tickets shoppers, Lines out of site

You hope you have the beans

This magic day when a little trying

Helps you score some really awesome seats...

 

Way out in the Hazy distance

some grandstand seats for coming show

Venting frustration, you try again for the

best seat and price bargain..

 

You grab some lawn seats, near the fence,

Resume the tour countdown

Message board check, TRF is fine,

The fans and the drama start about

 

Your card is charged.

Your paying out of your ass

No drinks and no camera's

The cars and the partying fans

 

Excitement so thick,you could cut it with a knife..

You pause and get high, For the best show of your whole life

 

The seats beneath us start to tremble,

the spreading of a low bass sound

A thunderous roar shakes the air as,

the crowd goes nuts for Tom Sawyer...

 

Neil's having a Blast, Ged's on fire

As the show gets off the ground

Alex tears away with a mighty force

And the air is shattered by the awesome sound

 

Like a pillar of cloud

The pot smoke lingers high in the air

In fascination

With the eyes of cool fans

We stare...

Uuuugghghhh its sooo far away.... a little under 4 months for me....

 

I feel so conflicted counting down the days until, essentially, summer is over, especially with all the fantastic things I'm looking forward to about summer...

 

I've already started having dreams about the concert...

 

 

THIS IS TORTURE
