You know I gotta thank Tbone for getting us to see RUSH back in November 2002 in Minneapolis on the Vapor Trails Tour.
The reason being is that was my only time seeing RUSH and after what went down this past January (which we all know about) It would have surely been one of my biggest missed concert opportunities ever.
Fortunately, it didn’t go that way.
Tbone came through with tickets and we rocked with Neil/Geddy and Alex for 3 hours which was a ton of fun!
Since we were both fans since 1981 an absolute purchase of a T-shirt was a necessity like no other. Never even owned a knock-off RUSH shirt folks so I spent a little more dough and got this cool 3/4 sleeve Tour Shirt.
Tbone got a RUSH red Vapor Trails shirt which by the end of the night in which he was wearing it he was nicknamed BIG RED but that is the whole other story for a whole other time!
Fun trip and one of the best indoor shows ever!
Thanks, T!

I respect the hell out of all of them. I like their radio songs and Red Barchetta. I will say…if I could have some beers with any rock stars…it would be Keith Richards and then Alex and Geddy…they seem like a couple of fun and cool guys.
Cool T shirt… I like the simple effective design.

Ontario’s international music ambassadors. They were huge when I was in HS, but I could take them or leave them then. As I get older, I find I appreciate their work more and more.

Rush is one of my all time fav acts. I always looked forward to when new music was put out by them and still do with the reissues as they are jammed with extras

I’m pleased you guys got to see them. Deke – I think that’s one of the big lessons for me after this year. When concerts return, if you get a chance to see a show, just do it, you’ll be glad you did!

Sarah and I saw them on the same tour at the ACC! It was my only time and her 2nd. We tried to see them again a few years ago but the hype (and tickets) was out of control. So glad I got to see them at least once.
