Just wanted to make a quick post about Rush's concert in Pittsburgh, PA, which is one of their fav cities of all time to play(read: twice in same tour). Absolutely fantastic, best show i've ever been too! Rush opened with Limelight and crushed it. Tom Sawyer was exceptionally great seeing as it was played perfectly, Alex Lifeson danced during the parts he wasn't playing, and it began with a South Park video intro. Besides playing a ton from there headlining album Snakes and Arrows (amazing btw!), they played 5 outta 7 of the songs from Moving Pictures, the rumored next album. The album would be great, YYZ anyone, which was actually their 3rd encore earlier tonight, and three encores is a first for this year-and-a-half running tour! I know its random but Rush kiks ass and RB/GH need more of em...ok done ramblin. Anyone else catch this sho or another one on the tour post here!

Ohhhhh you lucky bastard!!! They were here in April but I missed them sadly but I think I might have another chance some time on this tour. I'm not sure yet but I'm hoping. Did Neil Peart do his YYZ drum solo? That thing is amazing!!
