Saw Rush last weekend in Buffalo. What an odd setlist. Was great to see so much of the new material played. Should have called it the Power Windows/Clockwork Angels tour.

I asked about the origins of La Villa Staggiatto etc...

I told him I saw them in 77 and my MOM had to drive me. They opened up for Blue Oyster Cult. he laughed and we chatted etc....

Geddy did NOT socialize other than the required M and G.

Does the Ayn Rand loving Professor mix with the smaller and dumber trees at meet and greets?

Neil is notoriously anti-social at such things. I believe shakin' already referenced Limelight.

No...Neil lost his wife and daughter in the same year and he has become somewhat reclusive. If you watch beyond the lighted statge he talks about it. In fact, when backstage we were strictly told to not address him if he were to come out. I have no problem with it.

Agreed...tell you though. Going to sound check if fukikin kool, was around 5pm or so. They played Sub Divisions, Clockwork Angels and Freewill. They did NOT play subdivisions or Freewill during the show. They come out in street clothes and are simply making sure everything works. BUT..to sit in the arena, NO ONE is there except say 20 fans with connectins to see this was so kool. Like they are playing just for you. No photos allowed, in fact, we are told if you go to your phone, you will be escorted out.

The encore of 2112 was sort of the "abrdiged version".

Well, the pictures do confirm my suspicion that you are one ugly mofo.

WOW. Man, am I envious, southpark. Looks like so much fun. Loved seeing Geddy's bass set up.

All fine, just inconvenienced. We're the lucky ones.

Thanks for the thoughts.

Must have been incredible to not only meet Alex and Geddy, but be on stage. Awesome shots of the action.
