I have every hope that they'll film the gig for DVD release... stateside, europe, canada, japan... doesn't matter to me, just please PLEASE get it onto DVD.

No doubt about it in my mind...they will...in Europe or Japan. It is coming people.

[losingit2k]

I'm Glad Uk/ Europe will get to witness and experience The Time Machine! I just hope they come back to Florida as a warm up before the tour!

 

[FoxxiStarr]

So... Belfast next year by the sounds if it!

On RUSHISABAND.com this morning: "Finnish television channel SuomiTV is reporting that Rush will play the Hartwall Arena in Helsinki, Finland sometime in early May - likely May 3rd or 4th. Here's the original article in Finnish and here's the loose Google translation. This doesn't come as a huge surprise since Geddy Lee remarked in numerous interviews last week that the band was in discussions to tour Europe in the Spring of 2011. That said, this does seem to be the first semi-official confirmation that Rush will tour in 2011 from a major news source. It also gives us a better idea of the timing if indeed they'll be in Finland in early May. This would mean they'd be in Europe in the April-May, 2011 timeframe, and raises the question of whether any North American dates will occur before or after Europe." There's speculation (but no real "official" word) that there will be North American dates before and after the UK dates. Sounds promising...hopefully we get an official announcement from Rush soon!

This is indeed great news! I really hope they come back to Seattle but would like for it to be after the UK shows. I need time to save up for what is bound to be an expensive ticket. And come hell or high water, I am determined to get a front row seat this time.

Back in the early 80's I was one of many hundreds of fans from Belfast alone, to make the trip to England to see them.   Neil will enjoy a side trip to visit Bushmills, the oldest licensed Whiskey in the world... 1608. The 21yr single malt is exceptional. Also, Dunluce Castle and the Giants Causeway used for the Zeppelin album cover for Houses of The Holy.

I need a Red Rocks show in 2011 - got an invite to hang with the boys when I was at the show in Tampa - no good if they don't play there, though!

Announcement tomorrow at 9am, apparently.

The 12yr Distillery only isn't too shabby either.

I'm finding it hard to believe they're going to come to our windy little outpost in the North Atlantic....   Heading to Belfast and/or Dublin.....for me, a damn sight easier than the last 3 tours!!   We'll have to get our own shirt made:   RUSH TIME MACHINE MEGAHUGE IRISH TOUR 2011   Dublin o2 Arena Belfast Odyssey Arena Ah, that's it.     Woo hoo!   Anyway, fingers crossed, let's hope it isn't all a pile of horseshit. I'll believe it when I hear it.

[madra sneachta]

Sorry, I've been racked over with multiple orgasms since HA&S rang me this evening Nebbish, we'll have a pint before the Odyssey show, great venue, not the mention the O2 in Dub.....sorry......WHERE'S THE KLEENEX????

[krlowe]

I anticipate a Detroit date and I hope that it's at Pine Knob(DTE Energy Music Theater).

 

I can't wait!!! I hope we get an announcement before Thanksgiving!

We'll be in Killarney!!!!

 

Huge news. HUGE. The only fly in the ointement, and it's some fly, is The Wall is in the O2 May 23rd. So that wrecks any chance of doing all the Rush shows....

 

But I reckon my mini-tour will look like this:

 

Dublin

Glasgow

Manchester

London
