Lost In Xanadu Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 July 4th, still no date announced for Summerfest, Rush is open that day... always a good crowd for Rush at Summerfest... I have a friend that has played there a number of times, his booking contact said "there were discussions" at some point. I highly doubt it, but can hope. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanadu Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I'd love it but I am doubtful because they would have to interfere with their break that is scheduled during that time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very odd for Summerfest to have an open date this late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfriendly Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 They are finishing the next run in NY so they are already on the east coast but yeah don't wanna sound negative and it would be awesome if they added dates but I'm sure they appreciate the little breaks they do get. So to do one more right in the middle of the break seems unlikely. Having said that considering the success of this tour and how much everyone is begging them to do more and even Alex hinting at them at least discussing dates in Europe you never know. I know FOH seemed 120% convinced this is it but who knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiflemanWI Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I'm hoping they play Summerfest. There are only a few bands that will be in the area at that time big enough to headline at the Marcus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satchmothesnowdog Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I was totally bummed when I saw no Milwaukee date. I love seeing Rush at Marcus and just fuggin hate the United Center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toonz Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 There were early discussions for a Milwaukee date but it didn't pan out. Summerfest has a July 4th band that is being finalized but it not the boys unless something has changed in the past few days. Brother in law does works at World Fest inc and has been keeping me in the loop who they have been booking. Sadly, I'll have to drive to Chicago on June 12th. But I'm not complaining 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanadu Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 With the talk of no more major tours after this one but maybe "one off" dates here and there, maybe a future Milwaukee Summerfest date might happen. That would be nice. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost In Xanadu Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 I knew there was a 99.9% chance this wasn't going to happen... Summerfest booked the 4th with The Avett Brothers. Anyone ever heard of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bscsmkr Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Well if the rumors hold true for additional dates maybe Milwaukee will get one at the Bradley CenterAnd no I don't think anyone has heard of the band book for the 4th at Summerfest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost In Xanadu Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 marcus parking is hell. Pass.During Summerfest, only out of towners try and park near the venue. :) Most of the locals use the Freeway Shuttles. for a few bucks you get dropped off/picked up at the main gate and they have their own paths thru the streets so you get out very quickly with no traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
