FountainOfSyrinx Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 The attendance for the Documentary was insane. Two theatres in Hurst, Texas that were sold to the brim, with people spilling out and lining up to get a good seat, however, that was last summer. Now it's a Wednesday night, very late (8 PM), and it's a concert DVD, which they have very many of. What will the attendance (average, of course) be like around the country and all of the theatres? I can't imagine that it'll be great.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3strukt Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 There were maybe 40 people at my showing. 40 out of 168. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good to see younger kids that like RUSH. i've got every song they've ever written known by heart! ever since i head "What You're Doing" when i was 3.. it's grown. But yeah i was lucky i got to go! I wouldn't have gone if the Rangers didn't get PPD.. because they might've won the whole thing tonight! and i saw the show 3 times.. but i got done with a round of golf at 7 and said what the hell, so i called my buddy and we decided to go, and it was time and money well spent. i love that setlist and the sound is good. i can't wait for the CD on November 8th!

friendlyvoice Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Only about 30 on hand tonight in Birmingham (the Bama one, not UK). Considering the full house for the doc showing we attended, expected more would be there. But the doc was a very anticipated thing and something totally new for Rush...and, as someone else mentioned earlier, they've done several concert films. (although none as good as this one) Lot of fun, though. Good sushi & live Rush on the big screen made for a pretty good date with the wife...even with the semi-long drive.

D3strukt Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) So guys, this could technically count as "seeing Rush live" Â Eh, eh? Hahahaha! Edited October 27, 2011 by D3strukt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NobodysHeroine Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 The audience at my showing was very small, no more than fifteen people. But they were all Rush fans, the whole spectrum of ages, and they shared my enthusiasm for the movie (and the band). Quality over quantity. Â It may have been a tiny group, but they were part of one of the most epic nights I've had in a long while. I would have watched the premier of the concert film if it had not been on so late, and on a school night. This was my first time seeing the movie -- and now I want the DVD even more!

CMWriter Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 There were maybe 20-25 people who saw it here in Lincoln. May have been more up in Omaha; not a whole lot of Lincolnites I know who went up there for the TMT - aside, of course, from the guy I sat next to. But he and I rocked out with air drumming the WHOLE NIGHT.

1 of the 7 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 About 20-25 in Auburn, NY, which isn't bad for outside of a small city (Syracuse). Like elsewhere, the fans were VERY intense - a bunch of guys were reminiscing back to the 70's, quoting song lyrics, and talking about having gone to Lakeside Park. Lots of audience participation during the movie - clapping, shouts of "awesome!", nodding and singing along. I even brought my 72-year-old mom along - she said "they're obviously all really talented, but what makes them special is how they play off each other". Indeed! Met up with some fellow Rushgirls from here on the forum - I've been to a pre-show meetup before, but never here in my home town, so it was cool in that respect. Did anyone else's showing have like a DVD menu before the movie started? We thought that was kinda funny  Everyone kept saying they can't wait for the next concert! If I needed a reminder of why I'd give a lot to see these guys (which I hardly do), last night was a huge one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice pic of you ladies on the night of the movie, 1 of the 7; some BEAUTIFUL RUSH attire you're wearing, too!!!!!!!! I wish I could have been at your movie location, as I had to see the movie alone in Lincoln, Nebraska. It's okay, though; 'cause I had a RUSHING AWESOME TIME, anyway!!!!!!!!! I LOVED the movie and can't wait for the DVD and CD!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I would have known who you were, 'cause I would have come over to say "hello" to you, before or after the movie. BTW, I was the short woman wearing a black leather jacket and a RUSH "EXPLOSION" T-shirt, sitting in the first row of Rush fans, on "Geddy's side".

Brava Doh! Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Had about 15 in Duluth. There was no external advertising for it at all...everyone there read about it online somewhere. I'm pretty sure I was the only one in from Canada (about a 4 hour drive) to see it. Totally worth the trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oracle Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Just got back from the encore screening. Wow! The guys really were on full form in Cleveland. We didn't have 5.1 though, just the front and back speakers. Did anyone else happen to notice some issues with audio/video syncing? They were about a second or so, but there was some in the first half of the concert. Other than that, no complaints! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drewski Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Just to add a figure in late, on the original showing date here in Redmond (suburb of Seattle) there was about 60 people. Great crowd; all hardcore Rush fans. Singing along, air drumming, constant cries to theatre management to "Turn it up!," which they ultimately did after Presto. Good times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
