DavidE Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 I took these at The Palladium in New York on the Permanent Waves tour in 1980.
MCChris Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 I'm getting a contact buzz just from looking at them.The whole "they're a nerd band" thing in the new documentary was news to me. I always thought of them as a stoner band.
velorush Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Wow, thanks for posting! Xan - a - duuuuuuuuuuuuu....
Turdus Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Nice pics. I saw them the year before in a theater in Washington DC. In '78 they sold out the Cap Center, which was about 20,000 seats. The next year, they sold it out for 2 nights.
JGale Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Awwww. they coordinated tops and leggings. Quelle fashionistica!
DavidE Posted September 17, 2010 Author Posted September 17, 2010 Wow, thanks for posting! Xan - a - duuuuuuuuuuuuu.... Bingo! I've been corrected that based on their dress and haircuts, this was the permanent waves tour.
Brooks Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 kickass!!!rush is both a nerd band and a stoner band. and, many nerds are stoners, too.
pesocaster Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Cool pics! ..... well it looks like I'll be watching beyond the lighted stage again tonight.....
tommy p Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Love that first pic with the dueling doublenecks! I'll be checking them out in Tampa 10/2.
unfun75 Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Where are the washing machines and rotisserie ovens? Or, were they dryers? Either way...
DavidE Posted September 17, 2010 Author Posted September 17, 2010 Love that first pic with the dueling doublenecks! I'll be checking them out in Tampa 10/2.They're fantastic on this tour.Where are the washing machines and rotisserie ovens? Or, were they dryers? Either way...Geddy had dryers on one tour and rotisserie ovens on another.Alec and Geddy have time machines on this tour. :-)
mathman Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 This are from either 1981 or 1986. I honestly don't remember.
Carl.B Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 Just saw them at the minnsota state fair they were great still playing a 3 hr show! this from a stoner turned nerd
BTMN Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 Fan since '75. I saw that tour in Madison, Wn. in April '81 DavidE. Seen them every year '77-'86 and missed/seen a few tours since then. Trying to get to the Tampa show but no ticket yet and work keeping me busy until 8pm unless I can find relief for a few hours that day. I NEED a RUSH show to wakeup a few braincells with some thinking man's music.
NeilZ Posted September 18, 2010 Posted September 18, 2010 I'll throw this one in for fun.It is Neil's kit from All The World's a Stage.I saw it in a drum repair shop out in Brooklyn last year. Not sure who owns it now, but I heard it had been a prize in a drum competition after the tour.http://gallery.me.com/neilziesing#100082
