nicky6 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 THe live dvds/blu rays cant do them justice. theres nothing like seeing this band up close and in person can justify them.

JimboWTF Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I have a few friends who aren't fans of Rush, but buy tickets everytime they come to central Florida. They do put on a helluva show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
len(songs) Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I've never been to a Rush show, only having become a fan in late 2013. But I will trust you about this :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savagegrace26 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I doubt that I would have gotten into them as much as I did if I didn't see them live. And I was sitting in the nosebleeds at Nassau Colisruk that first time. They were smaller than GI Joe action figures on stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I was sitting in the nosebleeds at Nassau Colisruk that first time. They were smaller than GI Joe action figures on stage. wouldn't it be great if we all had little GI Joe sized Rush clones? Id set up a nice little stage for them and they could play concerts all the time! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all those who say they suck see em live, then tell me what you think.? Are there people that say Rush sucks live? If so, they probably hate puppies as well. Don't trust 'em! Even if you don't like the music, Rush are incredible musicians and know how to put on an excellent stage show (to say nothing of the videos and theatrics that go on during the show!). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time you see any band is bound to always be a special one I think. The first time I saw Rush, I almost felt like I was dreaming, but in a good way! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G Lee Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 I really hope they tour next year, because if so, I'm definitely gonna do my best to go see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas7 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Yep, always been frustrated that the live albums have never truly captured the band, especially Alex's guitar which seemed to fly over your head . The Signals tour was liking having a religious experience, The Weapon middle section, words can't describe the feeling, think I was in tears.

bri-tor Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 No matter how many times I see them live, I can never get enough. I always save as much as I can, and then follow them around Europe. It's so great to see and hear them in different venues, see the interaction between the members, and between the members and the audience, and to notice little changes from night to night. What a band! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apetersvt Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 For me: Seeing a band you love is pretty much a religious experience (SOCN beware). With Rush being my favorite band growing up, there really isn't anything better (with the exception of hooking up with women that are well out of my league) The fact that the boys can play what they do in the studio night after night with perfection is amazing. You know what you are going to get there best. I listen to a lot of the 'jam bands'. I do wish that Rush would take a few chances and do more improvs ala By-Tor om ATWAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer the Show of Hands version of that, the DS version just feels like an unnecessary heavier retread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
