Saw them in St. Louis August 31st. GREAT show. Amazing how pure Geddy's voice still sounds. Not to mention Neil and Alex's playing. And you'll like the Tom Sawyer bit 
Take your wallet, though. T-Shirts $30-45; Beers in STL were 8 for a small and $12 for a large, lol.

My wallet? Sounds like I need the lube!

That place is killer! Got to see the Spitfires play there last year while sitting at a table drinking a beverage - front row seats on the 2nd level - awesome!! London knows how to do stuff right.

The location is sweet too, downtown where there are plenty of bars for pregaming and after partying. Windsor's new arena location is weaksauce, kind of on the outskirts of town... definitely nowhere near downtown. le uber weak.... and to think, Gretzky and his group wanted to build an arena downtown with a "99" restaurant and a sports hall of fame where he would display some of his stuff. Instead, they are building a lesser facility for a lot more money, oh and it's being paid for by the taxpayers.

o rly... we didn't have any problems when we went (parking garage somewhere nearby). Then again, the Spits aren't exactly the biggest draw... although they are rivals.

there is a severe lack of freeways brought on by NIMBYism over the years

Yeah. You can imagine the NIMBYism in Windsor right now, with all of the proposals for new border crossings.

Passage to Bangkok is on the setlist, but that's it off 2112 IIRC.
I saw them July 21st. They put on an excellent show. They are so tight as musicians that I could only describe it as workmanlike. Simply amazing.
The venue (Amphitheater at Clark County, WA) was newer though, it was my first time there, and I was really disappointed by it, particularly the acoustics.
Am I the only one who bought Rush's signed book (numbered by Neil since he's got the best handwriting) of all their concert programs?
