x1yyz Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Earlier tonight... http://i341.photobucket.com/albums/o371/x1yyz/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20150801_192032_01_zps4f7af187.jpg 11
x1yyz Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 In the past 36 years I've seen hundreds of bands and concerts and tonight was the best show I have ever seen. After the band was done I couldn't speak, I was so in awe of the whole experience. Absofuckinlutely amazing. 14
DistantEarlySignals Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) 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.Any celebrity sightings DU?? A few thousand people report seeing Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart of Canadian rock band 'Rush' in the venue. (Sorry couldn't resist) Edited August 2, 2015 by DistantEarlySignals
Geddy's Soul Patch Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Holy shit, the energy in that building was unlike anything I've ever experienced before; such an incredible, emotional night. I had tears in my eyes more than a few times. If this truly is the end, they really went out on a f***ing high note. 7
Tombstone Mountain Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Back at the hotel. Tired of course. A fitting end to perhaps their most amazing tour. When i put up my documentary, know that it was done with love and affection for my friends here at TRF, and of course, for the men who've recorded the soundtrack of our lives. I met a guy named Jigga tonight. Let's see...this tour...top names of people I've met--Goose, Jimi Hendrix and her daughter NASA...and from America's Most Wanted--Jigga. Yeah, he was straight outta Compton. 6
YYZumbi Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dident woke up!!! I missed the show! Fuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!
Xanadu Posted August 2, 2015 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.Any celebrity sightings DU?? I personally didn't spot any, although I know a few reportedly came out. 1

Had a chat and a sing-a-long with him personally. Kind of a celebrity right? 4
Duke1 Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 This thread was a fantastic read, 6,500 miles away here in New Zealand, yet it felt so close. Brilliant stuff. 7
Partialgrace Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Oh, what a ride! I stuck with this thread before noon till now (It's Sunday evening here) ,still can't get over the queer feeling mixed with joy and sorrow. Thank you Rush and thank you periscope, from far eastern land. 3
Duke1 Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Neil looks almost to be in tears!!! That is a picture for the ages!Classic photo, brilliant, what a moment. 2
Duke1 Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) Found this You Tube video of Working Man from the show, nice to see Alex, Geddy and Neil together at the end of the show. http://youtu.be/KOWBLOuLIDU Edited August 2, 2015 by Duke1 9
Principled Man Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Found this You Tube video of Working Man from the show, nice to see Alex, Geddie and Neil together at the end of the show. http://youtu.be/KOWBLOuLIDU Like x INFINITY :lol: 5
JohnnyBlaze Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 I hope Bard one day eats his words I agree. I think he'd be just happy for them to disappear forever just so that he can say he was right.Yup. He surely might be right but I just loathe the condescending arrogance behind those posts of his..."I feel sorry for you guys that can't accept the truth" kind of bullshit. 4
hcm Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) http://youtu.be/sikZ1J_HQLw Thank you! Front row be damned. I had similar view at one of the R40 shows. At the end of Cygnus light show, I thought I was going to soil myself. TMMB was insane lights also. A second R40 blu ray from THAT VIEW would be incredible! Nothing like Howard's work from over his shoulder. Agreed but front row has its perks too Edited August 2, 2015 by hcm
hcm Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Bill again thanks so much for scoping through the end so we could watch it unfold live. Neil coming up front....almost too much for me. Been a fan since 1975 but too young for shows back then. First show was 2004 so glad I got to see as many as I did. Road warrior thanks for the awesome picture of the group hug 6
hcm Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) Love the guy on scope chat "my first Rush show I'm a fukking idiot" I would agree lots of missed greatness Edited August 2, 2015 by hcm 1
YYZumbi Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Found this You Tube video of Working Man from the show, nice to see Alex, Geddie and Neil together at the end of the show. http://youtu.be/KOWBLOuLIDU What a awesome performance... Man, I can´t believe this is true!!! This is a sad day.... But Geddy seem to enjoy it to much, so I think that the least we get will be a Geddy solo album. 1
x1yyz Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 I'm still in awe of the whole night. The energy in that crowd was unreal. I am so glad I was able to be a part of it. 5
Xanadu Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Neil looks almost to be in tears!!! I don't know, from where I was sitting it seemed like he really bounced from that drumset to the front of the stage. Looked more like pure jubilation to me. 1
Hemispheres4Echo Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Found this You Tube video of Working Man from the show, nice to see Alex, Geddie and Neil together at the end of the show. http://youtu.be/KOWBLOuLIDU What a awesome performance...

Moose Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 I too want to thank Scoper Bill for sharing (what could possibly be Rock History) with us last night! It was awesome! 4
