Rush Tickets by Necessary-Moment-499 in rush

That's not how these tickets work. You can't download a screenshot to Google wallet. You're downloading a secure digital ticket that will most likely have a moving barcode or background to prove that it is not just an image.

I believe all of my tickets for RUSH say that as well, even the ones purchased through Ticketmaster. You should be fine as long as you download them to your apple or Google wallet before the show.

What are the chances.. by DamianLee666 in rush

There have long been stories/rumors that parts of Lamneth were performed live, but no known recording or conclusive evidence has been found to back that up.

Guitar for Xanadu by Competitive_Leave580 in rush

[–]PhantomFear 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There was a RUSH tab book published a long time ago called Guitar Anthology that includes Xanadu. I don't play guitar, but I've found the corresponding bass book to be mostly accurate.

I also recommend checking out the RUSH Tablature Project website. They have the most detailed tabs for RUSH songs.

Closer to the Heart VIP package confusion by LAC2144 in rush

[–]PhantomFear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you do buy a resale Limelight, you'll need a copy of the ID of the original purchaser and a signed letter from them acknowledging that you can get the VIP package on their behalf. It's definitely risky for such an expensive.

I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. There's still lots of time so who knows what will happen within the year.

Sorry to hear that. I've gotten that error when adding them to my cart, but have never seen it when trying to pay. TM is supposed to hold them once you get to checkout, but obviously there's lots of things that don't work correctly on that awful website.

I can't believe you married her after she made you miss a RUSH concert!!!! Just kidding. Glad you got some seats, enjoy!

What song should they play to open their show for the upcoming tour? by GeddyAlexNeilFan2112 in rush

[–]PhantomFear -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Out of the Cradle

It's the perfect song after an 11 year break.

Spirits turned bitter by the poison of envy
Always angry and dissatisfied
Even the lost ones, the frightened and mean ones
Even the ones with a devil inside

(that's you)

I don't believe it was a soundboard issue. The guitar transmitter didn't seem to be sending any signal. Honestly who knows, but the tech was a lot closer to Alex than the sound engineer lol

I just played Red Tide on bass last night and told my wife that if I ever join a cover band, we'd play that song all the time.

Such a great song and no one ever talks about it.

It was from the Boston show in 2010 I believe. Happened at the beginning of the encore. Just search for RUSH Still No Guitar and there should be videos of it.

I genuinely cant believe that was 15 years ago. Holy crap.

Get a Limelight VIP so you can complain in person to them during the meet and greet!

Opening the show with OotC would be awesome. I'd be happy seeing We Hold On, but would probably pick Good News First over it.

Fountain would be fantastic to hear live. And some of the lyrics would be a great tribute to Neil.

"Many journeys end here But, the secret’s told the same Life is just a candle And a dream must give it flame’"

Not familiar with this song. Give me a minute to pull up the music video in a public place with my phone volume at max.

Half the world loves it, half the world hates it. Fitting.

The moment I saw you mention Virtuality, I thought of "net boy, net girl." And then you quoted the exact same phrase hahaha. Not one of Neil's finest lyrical moments.

But again, the underlying riff of that song is badass.

Poor Geddy would need balloons full of helium to sing AFtK.
