Well, by then, and to take my mind off my sadness, I'll get a second job and start trying to financially recover from going to all the Rush gigs I'll have hopefully been to over the years tongue.gif

 

This is pretty much my plan after they retire, actually...

This time last week I was on my way to my 2nd Rush show of the weekend.

I said something similar to Gilby earlier today...

Not about Geddy? You aren't reading the right threads.

I waited 5 months for last night to happen. Now it's over. Just like Christmas: all that waiting and excitement and now gone! sad.gif I'm tired and have a headache and I need a hug!! Does everyone feel this way after a rush concert? How do you get through it?

After about the 30th show that feeling kinda went away for me. tongue.gif

Well, early this week, I found out my now-second favorite band the Fixx is playing at a casino in Pennsylvania in August, so I have that show to look forward to and help get me through the upcoming Rush drought. It's actually been two years since I've seen them (took last year off). We'll probably catch a few shows at the State Fair too.

Oh, I hear you on the upcoming Rush drought. There's no guarantee that I'll be able to see them live next year, though I would really like to. sad.gif

 

Alas, I know that I should be grateful that I saw them in the first place. Plus the live concert DVD will be released in a few months; we Rushians can relive the concert experience(s) that we had on this tour. We'll survive the drought. 1287.gif

I saw Cheap Trick for the first time yesterday.

They were so amazing.

All four of them. Just blew my mind.

Now I'm sad because it's going to be a whole year before the next concert at Memorial Park. ;~;

And I want more, MORE!! Both them and 38 Special were incredible! I still can't believe I actually got to see them!

 

..But they're going to be back in Nebraska for the State Fair.

(It won't be a free concert, though. =/ )

I thought I'd feel sad after Sunday, but I actually reorganized my Rush playlists and I've been listening to tons more live stuff!!

I actually have found a Cheap Trick message board so I intend to join there (I actually have, just waiting for my account to be approved... hurry up, Ms Webmaster!) so I can connect with people who know a lot more about the band than I. laugh.gif I actually found that joining here after seeing RUSH helped me keep connected to the music and all.

YAY INTERNET. :3

Don't say such morbid things tongue.gif We all know it'll happen one day but let's not focus on that. I'm trying to enjoy what Rush still has to offer us until they truly decide to hang it up smile.gif I think we ALL know it can't last forever, but the impression they've left on me personally, as well as how much they've enriched my life, is something that will be with me to the end smile.gif "Celebrate the moment, as it turns into one more" trink39.gif

I was trying to point out that getting depressed after seeing a show was a little bit silly. And I wasn't trying to horrify everyone. You seem to have a sane perspective.

 

"Be glad they are touring, be glad they will be back. Enjoy that you saw them. Don't get sad because the thing you were so looking forward to happening actually happened. Be happy that it did, and that you were there to enjoy and be part of it."

 

That's all I'm saying. And I am sayin'!

The Time Machine Tour officially ended last night, at The Gorge in Washington. Awwww... fists crying.gif

 

But I do know that it is a well-deserved break for the Rush guys. They've been touring since March; they must be tired and ready to return home. I would be. Yet I do look forward to the epicness of next year: a new album and new tour! Plus this tour had my first ever Rush show, which I get to relive when the concert DVD is released. new_thumbsupsmileyanim.gif

I agree that it's a bit silly but I can't help it. I AM glad that I was there to be part of it!

 

It's all right I forgive you!

I had post-tour depression pretty bad last Saturday. Had the whole "a week ago... " game playing in my head. b_sigh.gif

 

Looking at the pictures I took at the 2 shows I saw helps a little. So do the videos of those shows (Vancouver/the Gorge). The DVD might help more but we have 2 months to wait for it. sad.gif
