NaturalScientist75 Posted May 12, 2013 Author Posted May 12, 2013 Two. 1. Time Machine Tour—New York, NY—April 10, 2011—I was taken by complete surprise. I was 12 at the time and had just gotten into Rush a year before. My dad told me he wanted to head to New York City and I asked him why. I was clueless until we walked up to Madison Square Garden and I saw a poster for Rush playing that evening. Great show, best night of my life. Nice dad!
snowdogged Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 This Saturday in Atlantic City will be my 24th show. First show was back in 1996 on the Power Windows Tour. I hope I get to see them twice more this leg, Hershey & Saratoga...but we shall see...I think you meant 1986.
Mr. JD Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 Somewhere between 50 and 60. First was December of 1974 at the Cleveland Agora. I was 14. That was a long time ago!
Freedom Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 3 shows: Time Machine Tour in Camden & Clockwork Angels in Philadelphia and Atlantic City. I would have seen more if I was born earlier! For some stupid reason, checking to see if Rush actually toured didn't occur to me until I was about 16; really kicking myself on that one. I can't wait to see what they'll do after this tour! :D
Citizen of the World Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 Will be seeing my 76th and 77th shows in July. First saw them in Seattle in November 1974. Farthest traveled to see them 1400 miles. 4
Xanadu2112 Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 I will see my 3rd gig June 10 here in Finland;)...
ytserush Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Still a newb. I think I'm up to 40 now since 1986. Every US leg since..Record is 8 on the Vapor Trails Tour Decided to bag AC at the last minute and be content with Hershey.
kooma Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 141, but who's counting anyway..... 2June Amsterdam will be number 142 1
sportzfan76 Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Atlantic City on Saturday night was my 28th show.
metaldad Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 My First show was May 18th 1981 Madison Square Garden on the MP TourMy Last was May 11 2013 in Atlantic City NJ42 Shows in all
SpeedOfLove Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Nine. My first show was the T4E tour at the Omni in Atlanta in '96. Then I had a bit of a dry spell (not intentional...it just worked out that way) and didn't get to see them again until Jacksonville in '08. But I've been making up for lost time ever since.
kooma Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 I will see my 3rd gig June 10 here in Finland;)... This is rather SAD....
Mission-Man 67 Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Lost count actually. Lost stubs from Vapor Trails going back to the beginning.However each show feels like my first and that is a great feeling.
JohnnyBlaze Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 somehow a mere 6 over 30+ years of Rush being my favorite band
willowroolz Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 I went to show number 21 last year, which made it 21 in '12 (kind of appropriate ). Today is the 30th anniversary of the first Rush show I ever went to :) http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v288/willowroolz/DSC00725_zpsfabbbb8c.jpg The ticket price! 1
RushCanuck Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 July 6 in Hamilton will be my 5th Rush show. Looking forward to seeing them again.
glennb2112 Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) I think around 40. I have lost count it might be more. Not bad considering my first tour was Presto. I've seen rush 3 times in 4 days during the Counterparts tour. Edited May 19, 2013 by glennb2112
ZivotSon Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 8 (Signals, GUP, Vapor Trails, S&A (3 times), Time Machine and CA). The break between GUP and Vapor Trails was largely due to me losing interest in the band after HYF was released. They really lost me on that one. Only Counterparts was of mild interest for me thereafter until Vapor Trails came out and I fell in love with the band again.
kooma Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 July 6 in Hamilton will be my 5th Rush show. Looking forward to seeing them again.You are such a rookie... :haz:
kooma Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 28 since Signals Tour. Next week #29 in Cologne. I will be in Cologne too, show #143.... :drool:
