Middle Kingdom Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 It's almost Friday! No tix yet, need 2. Thinking of getting to the arena early am and hanging out until they release more tickets. That or paying an arm and leg with an online broker.

GeddyRulz Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 QUOTE (fansince1979 @ Aug 31 2012, 10:46 PM) My first post here, and it's a request, but I figured it can't hurt to ask. I'm in ulster county in NY (Kingston area) and was wondering if anyone is going to the show on Friday passing by here (exit 19 on the NY state thruway), and if I'd be able to ride there and back with you? My last Rush show was in 2007 in Saratoga, NY back when I had a house, car, wife, etc, all of which I lost in a very harsh way in 2009 and I've been struggling to rebuild my life ever since, with not much luck so far. If anyone here thinks it's a possibility, I can give you my phone number if you'd want to talk to me first. I'm just a regular guy, no criminal record or anything crazy like that! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/bekloppt.gif Wish I could help. You being a stranger doesn't faze me, it's just that I have a few crazy circumstances that combine for a "no" - 1. I'm starting my trip from Albany, which doesn't pass you. 2. We're leaving early on Friday, to spend the afternoon before the show at Funspot in New Hampshire, the world's largest arcade. (They have all the classic 80s videogames I grew up with!) 3. After the show, I'm crashing at my brother's house near the NH/VT border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling you'll be within about 20 mins of me...assuming you're not taking a very scenic route back to Albany. Just curious, as I don't run into too many fans in these parts (though it may be a mistake to assume your brother is also a fan). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's seen them once, on the Counterparts tour, brought along as another person's guest. He's now in Hartland, VT. (Formerly in West Lebanon, NH.) A bit north of my Albany-Manchester route, but hey, it's free lodging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only about 45 min-1 hr out of your way. Could be worse. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/smile.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That arcade sounds awesome, I was the king of ms. pac man in 1982 at the pinball palace in Woodstock, NY. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/653.gif Thanks for the thought anyway though, 2 more days to go, maybe I'll still get lucky.

cygnify Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I read elsewhere that Murphy's is sold out / full. What is plan B for pre-show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karena Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Murphy's is an interesting choice. It is a hangout for the Free Staters and would have fit in nicely with 2112 era Rush. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/smile.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will sleep like a baby for the present tour. The level of excitement is going down over the years, for that kind of things, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertjames1971 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I seriously cannot wait for this show. I took a vacation day so I could get the kids from school, get the wife from the office, and get all of us up to Manch in plenty of time. I am actually giddy. If you get to the show, I'll be the really really ridiculously tall red head with the huge smile on his face. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
