ThinkingBig Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I've invited the 3 guys that I sat 16th row center with at the L.A. Forum for the G/P Tour. It was my 16th B-day. Dude # 1 (bassist, singer) has RSVP'd for sure. Dude # 2 (guitar) does't talk to these days for reasons unknown. But he talks to #1, so... who knows. Dude # 3 (guitar) (my best man and oldest friend) he's not sure because his sister is due to have a baby in Sept. He's coming to Chicago next month to see the Scorpions and I have high hopes he'll make RUSH. He and I first saw RUSH at the L.A. Forum, Signals Tour. Can you guess what instrument I play. ('play at' is more like it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShlappinDahBass Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Turns out my dad and I aren't going to the Detroit show (even though, we're from Grand Rapids!!). Looks like we're getting Section 208, row 3, seats 5-6 for CHICAGOO. Only reason being is that it's on a weekend...This will be my first Rush concert! Super excited!

Bone Roller Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 My best friend and me are coming in from Virginia. We hit a bunch of shows in the 80s when we were in high school. Needless to say, we both really dig Rush. We also dig deep dish pizza thus the trip. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/trink39.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost In Xanadu Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm not as excited as I should be - I'm not a fan of concerts at the United Center. Saw Van Halen there earlier this year and the sound isn't all that great. Might be down on the floor, but where I was it was pretty terrible. I hope the rumor floating around here is true - Rush, Summerfest 2013!! I am looking forward to meeting up with ILSnwdog for the concert though!
