jester1470 Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Anyone else going to see Rush this Tuesday? It's gonna be fucking ace' date=' 3 hours of excellent entertainment [/quote']I believe Soundian's going, and i know Fish is going so keep an eye out for him Marillion supported Rush several times in the 80's so he's going to say hello. I can't make it so dsadly i won't be going although have never really managed to get into Rush anyway,Tho the way the dates are selling, i think they've proved the promoters wrong who have said for the last 12 years that there isn't a market for Rush in the UK,CheersStuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouse Posted September 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 put a few mixtapes together then?Or maybe I should take down my mini disc recorder and make a really bad quality bootleg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse Posted September 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 I'm just in about 20 minutes ago after driving down and back on my own. The gig was as expected, exceptional! There was flames, an ace video screen, dragons, lasers & we got a killer drum solo from the god of rock drumming Neil Peart too. Set lasted about 3 hours (2 sets with one encore). Never saw Fish sadly. I'm off to bed soon, what a night! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmygoodein Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 indeed! it was fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Double Jack Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Very good gig - I thought the sound first half was pretty poor, but it improved in the second half. I thought that there was a wee lull in proceedings after the interval, but after the drum solo i thought the rest was top notch. Lighting / etc fantastic.Did anyone else notice the immense fuck up at the start of Spirit of Radio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marsh Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 It was fuckin amazing! It was amusing when they messed up Spirit of Radio, but they recoverved like true pros.We almost got chucked out for refusing to sit down - Bloody Nazi bouncers who hate seeing folk actually enjoying themselves. Did anyone else feel the heat from the flames? They were soooooo hot - I thought it might have been a trick, but hell no - real flameage. Incredible.Unfortunately I was so drunk I cannae mind the whole show, but what I remember was ace. They should leave out the Who covers, though. That was not on.Amazingly, it was 200 for a leather jacket (which looked utterly revolting) What a rip - off. I bought a dodgy t - shirt outside for a fiver! It's rubbiss as well, but at least it was cheap!All in all, a classic gig. Glad I saw them, but it did last too long. That drum solo was never ending. You dinnae realise how ace it is seeing punk bands that are on for 30 mins until you are in the 3rd hour of a Rush gig........We went to the Moorings afterwards - I was so drunk I can't remember a thing - Glorious.

Mouse Posted September 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Three hours is brilliant. Definately value for money and at least you don't have to go through a support band you may not want to see. I had some little kid standing on a chair right in front of me so my view was a little restricted, should still have good photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
