Got mine returned from Atlanta. Wasn't even opened. Had "Return to Sender" written on the envelope. Did I do something wrong, did the venue screw up, or does the band just have limits?

 

BTW, this was my first attempt trying this. Sent it to Rush Tour Management in care of the venue.

Same thing happened to me with Boston, after first having it returned unsigned (with my note) in the SASE from Syracuse. Confirmed delivery a couple days before at each venue. I assumed it never made it to the band, but was starting to wonder. Gave it one last try with Houston, and had success.

Well, I suck. I was SO busy with the Project From Hell at work the week prior to the show that I never got around to mailing anything off for signing. sad.gif

Was going to try to send something to Tampa or West Palm, since the Project From Hell was over, but I was so backed up by then with stuff from my usual work duties that I never did get it done.

I had this signed at the Atlanta show for my Daughter.

I took a look at all her other photos. It was nice for the band to do that for her.

 

May I ask what her condition is?

She is doing good. She has been off treatment and cancer free for 2 years and 9 months. Thanks for asking!

Great news, and a great photo..with Neil too!

 

Love it! wub.gif

It is a photo that I took at Red Rocks. You can see them all here if you like:

I have a bunch of other Rush photo albums (plus a number of other bands and events) on PhotoBucket from S&A plus a few shows in 2010. Check them oot, eh!

Greetings Net Boys and Net Girls...

 

Just received the A Show of Hands LP back from the Tampa gig...

 

...signed by all three!!!

 

What a great surprise to come from work to.

 

First the meet and great, then the front row at PNC, then Neil's sticks and Alex's pick and now this.

 

It has been a great Rush year for me!

 

A special thank you to Janie who was kind enough to post the "how to" guide here on this thread...you rock little sister!

 

~Cheers, RGLT

Well, my item came back from Tampa unsigned, but I understand why...no biggie, hope they at least read my note though. wink.gif

 

I like how the concert pics frame jobs are turning out, if there is another tour after a break, I think I'm going go that route. My phone cam stinks but my friend got some nice ones.

 

Fun stuff. cool.gif

Wow! Those are some seriously awesome mementos.

 

Glad I could help with advice about having an item signed. I know that it's the best feeling in the world to look at my signed items every day. They're all framed and on the wall and I've even had people comment on them and then saying, "That's pretty awesome they do that... I'll have to give Rush another listen." Spread that love!

johndyar, that's fantastic news!

 

I think I mentioned to you at the Atlanta meetup that my cousin is a leukemia survivor. He had a rough go of it in childhood - diagnosed at five, then remission, then relapsing twice. He finally had an autologous marrow transplant when he was fourteen (he had three siblings, but none were a match). He's now thirty-three and has been cancer-free since.

 

It's the reason I'm on the marrow donor list. I've never been called for it, but I am so there should anyone be in need.

Very cool. I wonder who signed first? Did you send the silver sharpie or was that Alex's own doing?

 

And I can see by the salutation by Alex that he wrote the salutation on mine.

What's interesting about this is that usually it's Neil who seems to write the name of the person on whatever item is being signed. Here though, Neil doesn't write your name but the other two do. wacko.gif

 

I love this btw! It looks great!

Got my tour book back, signed, today - personalized....to Dave and me, not to Niall sad.gif  Happy that it's signed, yes, and happy that it's personalized, yes...sad that it's not personalized to Niall which makes me think that they don't get anything else from the packages besides the items to sign and a post-it with the names from the bottom of the enclosed notes sad.gif

PS. I'll post a picture once I have a free moment to take one (I'm still editing, resizing and watermarking my 300+ pictures from Boston smile.gif )

QUOTE (LakesideMaiden @ Sep 24 2010, 02:36 PM)
What's weird about it is that I signed each of the notes (and there was one for each of them in it's own envelope, with a family photo of us) from Kathy, David and Niall - so you'd think that if they we're not going to follow the direction of the letter and personalize it to who I asked (Niall) that they would put it to the persons that signed the letter (Kathy, David and Niall)...instead, it was just to Kathy and David.  Just weird... confused13.gif

*edited to say that I'm not complaining by any means, I am so happy that I have something signed by them...I'm just sad that I don't have something signed to my son, which was the point of sending it in...*

I sent out a great picture I took at the Camden show and "Roadshow" to be signed at the Holmdel gig.

 

Lost hope when it didn't come back after about two weeks.

 

Then, exactly 3 weeks after the show, I come home to find the picture sitting on my table, signed by all 3 of the guys, each over their position in the picture. They shipped it out when they were in Boston after that break in September, held onto it the whole time.

 

Still haven't gotten "Roadshow" back, but I have an idea of what happend to it. cool.gif

 

I'll try to post the picture.
