Merely Space Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Should get mine Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljr869 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I got mine. It's very nice. Very thick pages, beautifully done. Up to you if it's worth $100. Definitely not worth $495 or $995. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertrobyn Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 I just emailed Rush backstage to see if they are going to start selling it at the merchandise tables at the tour stops. I'm on the fence about buying this so I wouldn't mind seeing it in person before buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljr869 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 It's wrapped, I doubt they'll let you flip through it even if they had it. It's just a big ol' coffee table book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaminbenb Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I'm more interested in the stories contained more so than the pictures...although that's an intriguing part as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not worth $495 or $995. The signed editions are already on Ebay for $800 or more...yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljr869 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Well there's no way I'm lugging this brick to MSG in the hopes of getting it signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ancient Ways Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 It's well worth the $100. I got mine on Tuesday. It's a large, heavy book that will take you a long time to get through everything. Really amazing piece. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x1yyz Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) It's well worth the $100. I got mine on Tuesday. It's a large, heavy book that will take you a long time to get through everything. Really amazing piece. Agreed. Mine just came today. Lots of artwork, but also a lot to read. It's probably 1.5 inches thick.

The Cat 3 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Received the shipping notification a few days back...still (patiently) waiting. My book and MSG tickets will, most likely, arrive on the same day. I'll be very Rush Happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Thanks for the info. Just ordered two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I would have ordered it as soon as it has been available, but 84.99$ for shipment to the old side of 'The Pond' is not exactly my idea of bargain.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezer Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I'd love it was just a joke; they probably ship the book to Europe using a Business Class seat.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am half way through and loving every minute of it. What's the content like? Curious if it's more about the process of choosing the artwork, or other band related tidbits? (and anything about alternate covers?) Edited May 29, 2015 by Jaminbenb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merely Space Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Just got mine yesterday. Absolutely beautiful. Very heavy. More text than I would have expected. Very interesting info on how each cover got put together. Love the run down on what the record company screwed with for CoS. Lots of detail. I've really just scratched the surface with this so far. The paper quality is unreal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALifeson85 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I was on the fence about purchasing this...with the price, anyway, lol...but with all the positive feedback on how great the quality of the book is, I plan on ordering a copy for myself next week, when I get paid again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaminbenb Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Just wish they'd have it in the merch booths at the shows....it would be easier to sneak into the house without the Mrs. knowing what I paid for it! :LMAO: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamie Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I'd like to have it but I'm broke so I don't really care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Been waiting years for something like this. I'm glad it seemed to have turned out as I hoped. Definately picking this one up eventually when the tour is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
