![]() | Rush in Concert!!! Pictures and Reviews from 2 Shows in 1 week Last night was Brian (O-nut's Hubby to be) and my "Man-Date" to see my favorite band Rush. This had been in the works for months and we couldn't wait. I'll actually be going to see them tomorrow night with our son (His first concert) so I'm very excited about that. So I'll be sharing more on Friday. And since it was evident (after I got in) that they don't mind camera's (even though the parking said no cameras) I should have better pics for tomorrow's show. But for now, here are some that I took with my cell phone camera. Welcome to Rush ![]() Brian is excited for his first Rush show in 14 years ![]() Limelight ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The Larger Bowl (with video opening from the McKenzie Brothers) ... eh (Sorry the pictures is so small, the more I zoom the smaller they get with this cell camera) ![]() Between the Wheels ![]() ![]() Dreamline ![]() ![]() ![]() I believe this was "The Way the Wind Blows" ![]() ![]() Natural Science ![]() ![]() Spirit of Radio (I believe) ![]() 2112 ![]() I love this picture, I'm mad it's so small. ![]() One Little Victory ![]() YYZ ![]() Review: It's still amazing to me that 3 guys, in their 50's can still play for 3 1/2 hours perfectly. There has been ALOT of talk in the "Rush World" about set-lists, and songs they woulda-coulda-shoulda played. That all went away as soon as Alex started his opening riff on Limelight. Highlights of the show for me were The Trees, The Larger Bowl (which I didn't care for in leg one), Natural Science (You can tell they all REALLY enjoy playing this live, and we love hearing it), Subdivisions, Spindrift and Witch Hunt. The show was flawless and the sound in the still brand spanking new Nokia Theatre is spot on. FINALLY LA has a medium-sized venue that rocks. They were all REALLY into the show and were really playing to the Pit. (I need to get down there one of these days). Brian had seen every tour from Permanent Waves (1979) to Counterparts (1994), but not since. He was amazed at how well they had played, that they played for so long, etc.

![]() I haven't been to Irvine in probably 14 years. Last concert I say there was Lollapalooza with Metallica, Soundgarden & Devo. Ah, the good old days. Thanks for the suggestion Gregg. Bad timing to see a concert. | |
