I definitely have to go this time. Last summer/fall was the first tour I missed since Moving Pictures...

 

[Matt Crooks]

July 19th is a Saturday, and Nissan pavillion is 10 minutes from my house.... hmmm....

Jul. 22 - Atlanta, GA - Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre at Encore Park

Is this a new venue that I haven't heard about, or did they re-name Lakewood/Hi-Fi Buys again?

Brand new. Doesn't open until May 2008.

Ahhh, a Dallas date! Saw them on the first leg of this tour back in August but wouldn't mind seeing them again at all. I wonder if they're going to change up the setlist any at all this time around.

Now this was back in the day....(video quality is so-so):

I'll be there - hopefully Steve can make this one!

I guess they chose this location over the one in Charlottesville since I don't see that listed on the set of finalized dates.

Yep - It's a new venue in Alpharetta.

Is that accounting for traffic?!?!? I HATE going to Nissan with a passion for just that reason!

However, I do see that they are playing @ Hershey Stadium on the 17th, I might have to make that trip (only an hour away).

 

[MysticX9]

Awesome!!! When do tickets go on sale for the Atlanta show?

 

[Midihell]

I'll be at the Austin show which will make the 23rd time I've seen them.

Maybe 15 with traffic!

 

[Valarien]

Haven't missed a tour since Moving Pictures, not about to start now...

Jun. 15 - Boston, MA - Tweeter Center

Only twenty minutes from my house.

Shame I really don't like Rush all that much.

Nice! I can only say that I haven't missed a tour since Hold Your Fire.

Looking forward to the Charlotte show.

I am SO glad they won't be playing down in the "hood" again! Can't wait to see a show at the new venue! Hope to see them on 7/22!

I haven't missed one since Signals.

The venue looks to be pretty nice, judging from the concept maps and drawings.

The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra is building it. I don't expect it for a moment, but wouldn't it be neet if Rush wrapped up their tour with a special show with an orchestra here? Hell, if Dimmu Borgir can play with an orchestra.....

What's the seating capacity of the new amp?

Moving Pictures was my first tour.....seen them every tour since. Rush and Dream Theater are the two bands I have traveled all over the country to see multiple shows on each tour for.



I expressed some disappointment in another thread about S&A and was iffy on even attending this tour because of that.

Well.....last night my brother in law and I made all our pre show plans and are excited as HELL for the show and are eagerly awaiting ticket sales.
