Incredibly, managed to get a second row centre ailse seat on Geddy's side for the 'bargain' price of £202 for the final show at the 02.  The seat next to me is £2450 (at the minute).

You did well. I was over £300 for row 8 centre block in Glasgow and thought that was relatively acceptable in this crazy age we're now experiencing.

Is it madness to consider the no spoilers position for this tour?

I did six months cold turkey, no Rush before R30. Not even a listen.

It was an incredible night at Wembley where they could do no wrong.

I might (try) to do that again if it was to deliver that kind of reward.

I know they're talking about rotating songs each night so after about the third gig all songs will be known.. better kill your internet around June

First alcohol in 70 days last night. I should have killed the internet around midnight.

I did all 6 of the UK shows on the R30 shows and my heart sank at the Wembley shows which were the first 2 - it was so ridiculously loud, I dreaded the thought of putting myself through that for the following week..thankfully the sound did get better as each successive show..but only Glasgow and Brum 2 had acceptable sound, I'd say.

Went to Rotterdam and that was fine also.

Yes, the Glasgow show was great but nothing will beat that thrill of seeing them after such a long break. Not even the gorgeous girl in the glittering catsuit asking if she could squeeze in beside me as I had a better seat. Only to realise after my instant agreement that she had a boyfriend who also pushed in.

I didn't wear proper earplugs back then and only the Dr Pro drummer type later on, but from now on it's the Alpine range. They're great, comfortable and the sound is just the same as everyone else's is hearing, only quieter and clearer and much more enjoyable as the stress is taken away.

I wouldn't mind this young lady as backing vocals on tour. Or even on bass sometimes if Geddy's back gets sore.

That keyboardist got an easy wage! Otherwise agreed was very welcome to watch.
