saltomortale Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 The legacy will live on, whether or not the band does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 This is pretty much all I've known since 1989!!!! Well, at least I got my 19 shows in over the years. Thanks to Periscope to help soften the blow. This is really tough to deal with though. As I look around my room with posters and other memorabilia I've collected for the past 26 years, it's tough to swallow. It's not like that stuff is going to go away. Keep enjoying it.

FountainOfSyrinx Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Couldn't periscope, but holding back tears even thinking that may have been it. They're just the f***ing best. And will be forever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfrushfan0122 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I'm completely numb right now and really trying to hold back tears... Just the sincerity in Geddy's voice got me... "And I do hope we'll meet again sometime..." I do too, Ged... I do too. "And I do hope we'll meet again sometime.... <ahem, NEIL>" By the way.. It didn't work. The more I think of it, the worse it gets, and I've completely lost it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a nation we need to get together and force....I mean gently steer him to the studio to start a new album. You know after a reasonable amount of time....like 2-3 weeks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanadu Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Oh my God, I choked up when Neil came forward! Everyone here was just like, "What?!" I found the picture taking part more interesting than the bow. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I think of it, the worse it gets, and I've completely lost it... Sorry man, it is an emotional night. For me, it's been fandom since 1981. 49 shows. Travelling with friends to many of them. It ignited my lifelong passion and career in music. Which in turn is how I met my wife, etc etc. All circumstances, I know. But Rush's inspiration has been a factor that set me on a path of Finding my way..... by the way, I was at the Philly show with you (in your signature!) That was a great one - but you should count yourself lucky - you saw the next show in Newark and saw Losing it! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only been a diehard fan for a couple of years, but I have to say these guys saved my life and brought me out of the darkest places and have been there to celebrate all my triumphs, every step of the way... I'm so thankful to come across such a piece of culture and divine wisdom. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saltomortale Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't trade the experience to see them live once for a lot of other bands' shows. It's sad but still, we hold on. Edited August 2, 2015 by saltomortale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a great one - but you should count yourself lucky - you saw the next show in Newark and saw Losing it!Totally agree. My 1st venture into Rush was 'Moving Pictures' on cassette Summer 1981. I then spent that fall going backwards into their music, seeing them in concert for the 1st time and growing up, with them.It has not hit me yet, it will, they helped me through alot of tough times.They have been friend, inspiration and even guidance to a whole bunch of us. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
