Starts at 1, is over by 2, they said. In case anyone wants to loiter outside the building!!

You don't happen to know what it was called before Sirius Studios, do you?
Laurabw Posted November 11, 2015 Author Posted November 11, 2015 oh my gosh, you're right!! Awesome! No, no idea. Oh,I just looked at the thing, it's in the McGraw-Hill building. 1
Union 5-3992 Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 What time is this being aired??Good question, I can't find it anywhere
blueschica Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) What time is this being aired??Good question, I can't find it anywhere I have heard a few of their town halls; I always had the impression they are live because of the audience questions but now I'm thinking they are not. I haven't seen anything about it either. I wonder if it will undergo editing to fit their exact time slot and then show up next week or something to fit in with the R40 Live video release????

Jomboni Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 Apparently it is airing on November 25th at 6 PM, with several repeats afterwards!http://www.rushisaband.com/blog/2015/11/08/4522/Sirius-XM-town-hall-interview-with-Rush-this-Friday-in-New-York-City 3

Laurabw Posted November 16, 2015 Author Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) I didn't record it, didn't think to. Duh. But it was awesome. As the winners, we got to sit in the studio with them, I was in the front row, literally two feet from Alex and four feet from Geddy. I got to ask them a question I'd submitted, about if the R40 setlist was influenced at all by the fans. My question was third. There was about 25 of us in the studio and then our guests were on the bleachers right outside the studio. It's very small. Michael Moore talked way too much, that was annoying. But Alex was very funny. Geddy too. You'll hear it all in the interview. We got to do a Meet and Greet photo afterwards, and it was interesting, again, Alex was very nice but Geddy was kinda cool when he shook my hand. Maybe by then he was bored, who knows.

Laurabw Posted November 16, 2015 Author Posted November 16, 2015 When I can figure out how to get the picture on here, you can see! I just was, in awe. I could see his magic arthritic fingers, poor guy, and the callouses on his palms. And he was very funny. They both were really. And you can see how close they are. OH!! I FORGOT....Jonathan Dinklage was there!! And also Alex's wife, he pointed her out, that was pretty cool. 2

Laurabw Posted November 16, 2015 Author Posted November 16, 2015 It was a once in a lifetime experience. I hope you can listen to the interview, it was really cool, lots of different topics were covered. They even talked about marriage, that was when Alex said his wife was there. 4
exiledyorkie Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Very Nice, I'm in that too. Edited November 16, 2015 by exiledyorkie 3
blueschica Posted November 16, 2015 Posted November 16, 2015 https://www.facebook...77&l=92e1f989bf (I cropped out MIchael Moore) Thank you for posting the link! That must have been a really cool day. 5 or 6 years ago my sister and or husband and I used to take the train to NYC for the day and have a day out. I briefly thought of entering, but I couldn't think of any good questions! Looks like an awesome experience for you and your friend!
