tontonfranck Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) I've read on a french blog that Rush would play in Paris. The date was may 19 but they will be in Manchester that day. So what? That's a shame but I'm quite sure rush can't have 6000 people on a french date. So I don't hope too much but I wait an official comment...

prout21 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Can't see it unfortunately. My then girlfriend now wife was at the Zenith when they played there in '92. I was supposed to go myself but couldn't get across from England, though i did uncover a fair recording of it. We've now lived in France for 2 years and I've got the same problem in reverse for this year. Rush seem to get very little exposure here and at this stage of their career they don't really need to take the risk. Mind you in 2007 we saw them twice on the UK leg and I justified the expense by saying it would probably be the last time they toured in Europe so what do I know ?

prout21 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Well done with your English Franck which seems fairly good to me. Quite a coincidence your parents being so close. Fingers crossed for the concert about which i hope I am proved wrong. As the man once said; "Anything Can Happen"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i found a way to make a copie of that show on my computer may be i should put this on Youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prout21 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 I had this video too I think. If it's the same one it was filmed stage centre about halfway back. I think I let it go in a car boot sale following a clear out. The copy I had wasn't great although I'm still sorry I never made it to the gig which seemed to have a good crowd and the venue is a bit smaller than the arenas that i've seen them play since then ...oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mini-xanadu Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Stop searching, Rush almost never comes to France ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tontonfranck Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Well, you're right they just made one show in France in 36 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
