Wasn't it great? It was my 10th Rush concert and I think it might have been the best one. The South Park cartoon before "Tom Sawyer" was hilarious!

Sounds like it's going to be a great show, I've got tickets for the August 1st show in Mountain View, and the August 3rd show in Concord.

I won't have a chance to see this tour but I say the R30 and I was amazed at how those guys could still slam it out on those old songs after all these years. Amazing performers. Very inspiring.

He said something like, "A modern-day warrior, today's Tom Sawyer, he built a raft and went down the river with a black guy." And then Kyle and Stan said, "That's not Tom Sawyer, that's Huck Finn!" Cartman says, "I'm Geddy Lee! I'll sing it however I want!"

They're playing on a Tuesday night in Houston in August.
We're a "house band" and play on TUESDAY NIGHTS

I've dropped a couple of hints already.....
Last time I caught them was early 1990's....
