Nice!!! I snagged tickets (in the rafters) for the Friday night show in Fort Worth.

Yeah, I'm still in "I'll see" mode, too.

The same person who told me prices in Fort Worth said tix start at $106 in Chicago.

So, yeah... We'll see how it shakes out.

Yep. Citi cards only now for US cardholders, Amex only for Canada is what I understand. I still assume it's open to all who registered for pre-sale on Monday 10/13 at noon.

I've heard prices in Fort Worth (where I'm at) are $300 for the nose-bleeds.

Hope I'll be lucky enough to snag at least one🤞

I kick myself sometimes for not seeing them every time they toured, especially for the CA tour with the string section. Thought R40 was my last chance (it was an amazing show, and my son's first ever concert) ... I am NOT missing this. See you in Fort Worth!!!

Back in the late '80s, I was working at RadioShack in Horseheads, NY. Likely jamming Presto. A guy comes in, and of course, had to ask his name and address. You know, RadioShack 🙄

Turns out it was Kim Mitchell. Cool guy, too.

Back then, I had no idea who he was!!!

Wish I had a redo on that one 😭

Oh... And more importantly, I doubled my current monthly sustaining membership to my local PBS and NPR stations, too, whilst telling CBS/Paramount to eff-off.

Same here. Didn't get a screenshot, but that was the jist of what I wrote, too... That, and the glitchy app basically sucked shit.

As did Rush.

For the uninitiated, the drummer, Neil Peart, passed in 2020 from a form of brain cancer.

The US Army did a fantastic tribute to him:

No flying Geddy, or 80s video treatment... Just a rearrangement of a truly beautiful piece of music, and a tribute to a great human being.

Awesome.

Say what you will about the 80s video tech (a flying Geddy is always going to be cooler than anything), but, jeez... What a song!

I'm sure I'm not alone, but that final verse, with nights getting colder and old friends getting older, just punches me right in the heart.

Crying right now.

Right?

Love it!!!

Lerxst and Dirk need to do a podcast, or something... Just these two knuckleheads, hanging out and cracking each other up.

It would bring me immense joy 😁

Saw the poster (thumbnail, whatever you want to call it), and it was probably the fastest I ever clicked on a video. It is, well, pretty freaking great.

Oooh, said I, I'm comin' out to getcha

Hi Viv! Yeah, all good here. Time sure flies, huh?

Good Morning, Vivien!

As it turns out, it was 5 years ago, to the day, I made this little video of Red Barchetta with Andy Q... Still looking for him on here 😉

Anyway, I wanted to reshare it on here with the #RushFamily

Best enjoyed with headphones at max volume 😁
