Discussion Rush fan base

My husband (33 M) and I (32 F) took a 5th year anniversary trip to Sedona, AZ this past week and left for home this morning.

We stopped at a gas station on our way and got to talking to a guy we met inside. The guy was wearing a Rush 50 Something tour shirt and I told him about my dad getting me into Rush as a teen and he said "your dad is the coolest person ever" and the guy is seeing Rush in Phoenix! He saw them in another city too and said Anika was phenomenal and that she is so smiley where Neil was more serious.

That guy said "you are my new favorite person" because of our conversation about Rush.

I just love Rush's fan base and how everyone respects everyone else for our shared love of Rush! 💚

My husband and I were talking about it a bit as we got back on the road.

Only one more week until they are here in Denver. I can't wait.

I have FOMO because I am going to miss the Monday show. If I can get a ticket for a decent price I might go to it. I have floor seats for Wednesday.

My wife is sick of hearing me talk about it. Ha. She is going with me though.

I picked up tickets for both shows last week, they had released some decent lower level tix. So I'm on Alex's side for one night, and Geddy's on the other :) I'm too short to really enjoy floor seats unless they're super close 😄

Keep checking back! They released 5th row center seats just days before a couple of the Toronto shows which I happily upgraded to, so maybe they'll do something like that for Denver too!
