Default RUSH: Time Machine

Show Time!

Hard to describe without getting into all of the cliches.
Just back from Euro leg of the tour they started off a little cold (half a song to warm up) but after that....not a complaint except for one: the incredible low tones generated on Geddy's synth were painful during Subdivisions and a couple other songs.
More than likely it was my seating...lower deck 2/3's back where the bass can bounce off the back wall on occasions.
But what a synth it is!

I drove up from Columbia with my 17 YO son, his first major concert...he was mightily impressed.
He kept saying his favorite was YYZ...good news!

The show itself...the set, the films, the details.
Just incredible production and execution.
I see why the ticket prices seem so high - it must cost a mint to get all that
together.
Was it me or could I actually FEEL the heat from the Witch Hunt flames?

Execution-although they have all of the tools at their disposal when they bumped the Time Machine
back to 2112 the gadgetry was dispensed of seamlessly and it was just like looking at the band on stage from 1977.
The sparse white lights spotlight the band and the stage "choreography" looked the same with Geddy and Alex performing their own moves like they did then.
Hard to pick a favorite but from my username you can probably guess I just loved that segment.

BU2B was great...Watchmaker also incredible.
They are stronger than ever...

Intro and intermission movies were a riot also!
("Moving pitchers"...LOL)
What is the best about "Rash" is they are having fun and it shows.
I hope I can go like that when I'm 58 years old!
