EagleMoon Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) I had the same reaction - saw them in Philly and had a different experience than most. I noticed that Geddy ran to the center stage many times - same as older concerts where Alex and Geddy would normally jam together - but this time I noticed Alex staying in his spot. He did goof around a few times with Neil, but it was odd enough to make me wonder if something was wrong or if he wasn't feeling well. It was a much different concert than, say, the Time Machine tour.I noticed that too in the Tulsa show I watched. Made me feel sorry for Geddy. He kept trying to engage Alex, but I never saw, in all the shows I've watched, Alex so absorbed in his playing. Alex was much more reserved in the first few shows than he has been since.

I think this last leg of the tour will find them really relaxed. This is it. Not necessarily the end, but it is the end of an era for Rush.

Tuesday's Gone Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Also those Triceratops gotta be damn heavy. Individual Triceratops are estimated to have reached about 7.9 to 9.0 m (26.0–29.5 ft) in length, 2.9 to 3.0 m (9.5–9.8 ft) in height, and 6.1–12.0 tonnes (13,000–26,000 lb) in weight. You were right, that's pretty damn heavy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DistantEarlySignals Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Lerxst was on fire tonight in KCMO!!!!! He looked like he was having more fun than Geddy! He was joking with the audience, and smiling. He even looked at me and smiled during Closer to the Heart! Even Neil was smiling and periodically joking around (especially after Working Man).... BEST SHOW EVER!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
