woohooo, they're coming to Philly in June!!

[iamlowsound]

I might just have to hit up the Toronto show. Too bad they aren't coming to London again, that was nice and close.

[Lakland55]

Oooh yeah, Phoenix in May...I'm definitely getting tix!!!

[TallLankyBastyd]

The Gorge?!?

The Gorge?!?

I don't wanna drive over the mountains into the arid plains of Eastern Washington and have to sit amongst the sage brush and cactus... rant... rant... rant!!

When are they going to get it?!? The Gorge is NOT Seattle... it is out in the middle of bum-fark no where!!

Oh well... guess that won't be taking up that weekend...

[Oxblood]

Looks like il be seeing them in DC!

Gigantour, Styx, and now Rush! If the lineup for Ozzfest and SOTU are awesome this might be the best concert year for me yet! Seeing Les Claypool would put the icing on the cake.

[WillPlay4Food]

Hmmm, SPAC or Mohegan Sun? Decisions, decisions....

[Bryan316]

I don't think I have an excuse this time! I'm planning to go see Rush for the first time. Definitely.

[Valerus]

HELL YES!
April 20th or 25th!

[tplyons]

I know where I'll be July 12th

[ThatGermanDude]

might have to get tix for April 20th

[Dave Siff]

Wow, they ARE coming back to Atlanta! That's a brand new venue, too.. 12,000 seater, outdoors.
I think I'm gonna be out of town, though..

[stratovani]

I saw them last June, and I had tears running down my cheeks! I've got to see them again! Question is, June 15 at the Tweeter Center, or July 7 at Mohegan Sun?

I just noticed these dates:

24: Winnipeg, MB - MTS Center
25: Regina, SK - Brandt Center

14: Philadelphia, PA - Wachovia Center
15: Boston, MA - Tweeter Center

4: Atlantic City, NJ - Marc Etess Arena
5: Saratoga, NY - SPAC

Rush must have duel set ups because I can't see how they can tear down and set up plus travel in less than 24 hours.

Especially after seeing the YouTube video of Neil Pearts drum kit set up.

[casualmadness]

I can't wait! I ahven't seen Rush since...must have been late 80's!
Not for nothing; but I was in the supermarket last night after work and I heard "Tom Sawyer" on the supermarket music channel. At first, I was stoked to hear some good music in place of the normal crud that they play. But then I remembered a joke I heard about hearing your favorite music on supermarket radio.
Either way, I'm stoked about seeing Rush again.

Hey, how is the Woodlands Pavilion for shows? I saw them a few years ago on the Vapor Trails tour at the Fair Park Music Center in Dallas, and wasn't just blown away by the venue. I may head to Houston if it warrants a better show

[Valerus]

It's decent, by what I remember.
