And that's saying something bearing in mind, I also went to the Silver Clef Awards gig at Knebworth the same year (Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Genesis, Paul McCartney & Wings, Eric Clapton, Elton John, Robert Plant [with Jimmy Page joining in], Tears for Fears, Cliff Richard & The Shadows, and Status Quo).  That was probably the 2nd best gig I've been to.
 
 




 
I was there too, rained a lot, didn't it?

Well... I'm always in a big rush but I'm really no fan of it.

I don't have Showtime, but I'm going to have to track this down somehow.
 
Rush fan? Me? Yup!
 
My first show was either Dec. '74 or Jan. '75. It was the Fly By Night tour right after Peart replaced Rutsey. The show was at a club in Schaumburg, IL called B'ginnings. We drove down from Madison, WI. [I also saw Tony Levin for the first time there.] I was hooked. Still am. Bought all of the LPs. Then bought all of the cassettes. Then the CDs. Then the remastered CDs. Then I met a guy who produced high quality bootlegs. Got a bunch of those (Rush and Dream Theater). All the VHS tapes. Then the DVDs. Then the Blu-rays.
 
My fav seat at their shows? 3rd row, right in front of Geddy. 
 
The last show (outdoors in Phoenix) I forgot my ear plugs. Couldn't hear doodly squat for two days. 


Wow that is really impressive.
You're a really big fan.

It was on AXS TV last night on DISH.
Missed it, but will try to catch it next time.

Thanks for the heads-up. The next showing on AXS that I could find is Wednesday, 27 December at 8pm Mountain Time (10 Eastern, 7 Pacific).
 
Set to record.
 
What's running on AXS is Rush: The Rise of Kings. Don't know if that's the same as the OP is referring to, or a completely different documentary. More searching required.




Excuse my confusion. Right, Rise Of Kings is the one I referred to. I think I've already seen Time Stand Still.

Anyone else get to see one of the few shows on the Down The Tubes tour (as the boys themselves called it)? I actually liked Caress Of Steel when it was released. 2112 would not have been possible without it.
 
My last Illinois license plate (before moving to Arizona) was: XXIXII. A surprising number of peeps figured it out easily. I was pleased.
