And I know they've played Raleigh in the past too, so I don't know why. Just weird. Yeah, my favorite concert was Hold Your Fire which was in Raleigh. They skip Raleigh on occasion, but always play Charlotte. But this warm up tour is small anyway and they are probably only playing the larger cities. Once the album comes out they will probably play Raleigh or at least Charlotte. Of course, I'm wanting to see everybody tonight here in New England and think it will be fun. Seeing it on my home turf would bring about a more personal experience since that is where I became a fan and I probably mention this in the film.

Okay, logging off now - have to get all of Niall's stuff together (my parents are babysitting him while we go out for the dinner and documentary) and then head down to Mass. FYI: I'm making a dinner reservation for 16 people, for the 14 who have responded and 2 extras in case we have people decide to go last minute.

circumstantial tree Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Had a wonderful time tonight. Of course, all of Boston was nearly crippled with some severe storms that came through around 4:00. Went to eat dinner at Not Your Average Joe's, met some folks from TRF and Donna Halper joined us there. The documentary is excellent, but then I knew it would be. I wasn't too keen on my appearance in the movie. (Am I really like that? ) but it was a sold out event and judging by the line outside the theatre, it looked like a Rush concert was about to take place with most of us in Rush tshirts and stuff. Donna spoke about her experiences before and after the movie. Great stuff to hear. Came home under much cooler and clearer weather conditions, had some snacks and now ready for bed. It was a fabulous evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circumstantial tree Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Donna is great that way. She can pull out some one-liners and they catch you by surprise. Remember when she took the stage and was talking and then someone's cell phone started ringing? "Marge, hold all my calls". And of course, who could forget the guy with the Caress of Steel shirt?

And of course, who could forget the guy with the Caress of Steel shirt? The one-liners were fantastic I could tell that guy was really starting to get to her. When we all walked to our cars afterward, Kelly D and I were her "bodyguards". He wouldn't leave her alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Running Rebel Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I knew it was playing at some Rave theaters in the Cinti Dayton area starting the 10th and went to check the times and realized that they each have one show only. The Greenes near Dayton is 10am? weird time? Westchester north of Cinti is Thursday evening at 8 PM and thankfully I can make that show. I would have been really bummed had I missed this.

It's probably just a matter of phoning an independent theatre and telling them that such a documentary exists. If I were still in Cary, it would have taken just an hour to get to Greensboro.
