Went to see Rush at GM Place on Thursday night.
What a show that was! Absolutely spectacular. Rush always put on such a great show.
Sure, they're a little predictable, there's always a drum solo, always a few instrumentals and always a few medleys of various songs. But I think it's the predictability that people have come to love about Rush shows.
My only mistake was getting floor seats. I thought it would be the cool thing to do, but nope. Stood up all through the show (it was more than 3 hours long with the intermission) and was constantly straining to see everything and not just watch the huge monitors behind them.
But the sound was great (take note The Cure) and the show was perfect. A great mix of old and new. The boys looked great, and like they were really enjoying themselves (take note The Cure). Geddy seemed genuinely interested in talking to the crowd (again... The Cure).
Everyone should go to a Rush show, even if you're not a huge fan. As long as you don't dislike them, you'll have a great time.
Later dudes.
