Well guys it looks like I'm goin to Toledo too. I was looking at the Rush tour schedule and noticed that the Toledo show is on Wednesday a day I don't have classes and its not too far from home so I went on ticketmaster and scored a seat in section 108 row A. I'm hoping its a good seat. As icing on the cake I'm seeing them a week later at The Palace of Auburn Hills

 

EDIT: the description should have read "Here I come" sorry I'm really excited

Does anyone know about the Huntington Center?

I do not know about the 2011 Rush show venue in Toledo, but look at these shots

...that is The Sports Arena in Toledo, OH. I took those in about 1979 when a group of us drove down from the western Detroit 'burbs to see Kiss...ended up in the front row after an over-night camp out for one of the last, true General Admission shows. And very nice King Crimson photo in your sig. Wow! They all look like kids. Here's what Adrian Belew looks like now...

Well, if you weren't, I would be really worried about it, because it seems like you've got an excellent seat. My first Rush concert will be in May and I'm so excited about it too trink39.gif

I've never been there but will be April 6th (of course). From what I heard, it's a small, intimate arena with nary a bad seat in the house. So all sightlines should be good no matter where you are. Unless you get stuck behind some tall 6'6" sap who's stands throughout the show (which happned to me Columbus last year! angry.gif ) Edited by Cygnals

My boyfriend and I'll be there as well. We're road tripping to this and the Hershey show. We're in Section F2 Row D 14 &15. I hope there'll be a meetup so we can put faces with names - I'll post back if I hear of any!

That would be awesome!

I am in absolute shock. There's no way I can make the new date. I have seventh row will call VIP tickets, and no idea if I can get my money back or transfer them. I'm more upset that I can't be there, honestly...those would have been awesome seats, and I'm sad I won't get to meet any of you. My heart hurts. fists crying.gif

Looking forward for Toledo, guess it's almost 2 weeks away now. 4th row center thanks to the VIP tickets. Will be happy that I don't need to wait for 7+ hours to wait to be that close like in Sarnia with the VIP general admission pit. It was cool being right behind one person behind the barrier, but man when the show started I was exhausted after all the waiting. Still it was a really great show.

 

Yeah this place looks so small, I hope Rush will be able to get all their gear into there.
