Mystic Rythm Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 The last two post got me thinking about my first concert and how much ticket prices have changed. I paid $8.50 for a ticket to see Moving Pictures in Little Rock in 1980. What's the least amount you've has paid for a Rush ticket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. JD Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 The first time I saw them was in a small venue. I think it was around $4.00. I do remember the second time because I had to bum the money from my mom. They opened for Ted Nugent. That ticket was $5.65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now $40 might not even get you the cheapest seat in the venue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgeddy05 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 *Technically* the front row tickets I won off the radio were free... But, I think $65 for Rochester, NY in 2002 sounds about right; it was only my second Rush show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todem Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 $12.50 for my tickets for back to back nights on the Signals tour. This was the price for every seat in the house. Amazing how much concerts cost these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the masked drummer Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 1) My Cheapest Rush Ticket - Signals (1983?) I can't remember, but it was likely the cheapest. Probably around $12-15$ 2) Cheapest ticket ever? (Besides Dream Theater for $6.00 in 1992 and Asia FREE in 11/27/92) it will be YES at Pine Knob 08/06/12!!! Wait... Yes has a new singer???
