Lorraine Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Concert tickets used to be $5.00 and $7.50 - depending on where you wanted to sit. :codger: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which meant when the doors opened, you made a mad sprint to the front. I was pressed up against the stage all night, right under Geddy. No barrier then. I could have touched his platform shoes when he came to the edge of the stage! Crazy times! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YYZumbi Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) Awesome. But I am sure you will see them again! This is NOT the end! At least not for you guys that live in the North America... Edited June 23, 2015 by YYZumbi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's it for me. I live too far away from New York, LA or Vegas if the decide to pull off a "residency" type tour in the future. :hi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you were 5 months old when I saw Rush for the first time! :codger: Yep, was only two months old when Hemispheres was released. $6.50 to see the set they played on that tour was a hell of a deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of Rush is a friend of mine! I don't care if you just discovered them five minutes ago. Enjoy the show, my friend! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madrushian Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 If they do a residency. I will do all I can to get to a show. Never count out the possibility of going to a residency show.especially lad Vegas because southwest airlines flus to Vegas low rates. I hope all of us can make it to a residency show.

J2112YYZ Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 (edited) If they did do a residency in Toronto which is very likely a place that they would do that in, I would have a good shot at seeing them again. Even with the border crossing and traffic, Toronto is usually about a two hour drive from here. But getting where I need to go once i'm in that city is a whole other endeavor.

Relayer2112 Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I don't get it. How come they only show the convenience charge on that old ticket stub and not the full price? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later many many more shows in Batimore and the Capital Centre. I wish I had kept ticket stubs/shirts from that first tour but the memories will have to do.

I have made a lot of friends over the years because of Rush and a Vegas residency would be a hoot--2 or 3 show is a row and non-stop party inbetween.......wonder if my wife will let me go?

graxxus Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I'm originally from Louisville. I've seen five of the same shows as you! Roll The Bones Riverbend and Deer Creek, Counterparts the Riverbend and Market Square, and Time Machine at the Yum! Crazy, all my other shows have been out in Colorado because I moved out in '95. Small world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
