Hi guys,
Today as I was scanning through my Facebook updates, I saw that Rush had posted a tour date for next Tuesday at the Palace of Auburn Hills near Detroit, MI. I looked online and noticed there were still 400 tickets available

Only 7 of these remaining tickets were in the back row (lol oh well - who cares?), so we bought 3 of them.

HOLY CRAP.

Thanks Tim

Is his voice still as good live as it is on the album? Can't wait to hear it!

Is this your first Rush concert?

I'd like to see Geddy Lee play bass live.
Thanks for this!

I saw my all time favorite band Tool, ten years ago and the memories are still quite vivid. Actually, it was more of a spiritual event than a concert. I hope you have the same or similar experience.

Enjoy!
Thanks for this!

you are in for a treat, they are a marvelous band live, the music is always true to the record, a trademark of theirs, and Neil Peart's drum solo is a thing of magnificence, I have been to see them 10 times since 1981-

Geddy lowers his register a bit for live performances so he can extend his career, (their concerts are about 2 1/2 to three hours with no opening act) pbut from time to time he still gets those shrieking highs.

In terms of the production quality they are unmatched, the sound and light equipment are always dazzling.
Thanks for this!

I had tickets to the Moving Pictures tour date in Toronto in 81. Holy mama....long time ago. Anyway an uncle scored me a job with the Ministry of Transport in the Northwest Territories [Nunavut today] and I gave them to my cousin. I then took off...for the great white north...eh? Haha...had to add that. May have relevance to some. Enjoy y'all who's going.
Thanks for this!

I saw them in concert back in the early 90s I think? It was a long time ago, they were great! Have fun!

I saw them last year - they're phenomenal. I hope you have a great time. I'm going to see them again in Toronto, in Oct.
