I especially love the tearful girl who said “It’s not just music. They… they teach us so many lessons...” I always felt the same way; over 40 years, Rush affected who I became, through their lyrics and also through their example of living life with personal and artistic integrity. I’d have a hard time naming better role models for young people.

You said it well in every interview they are all class acts. My Lerxt Bytor shirt arrives today an homage to the greatest.

I forever maintain that this crowd was the single greatest representation of the fandom as a whole, hands down, bar none…they did us *insanely proud.* 🤘🏻♥️

I was there, right in front at the Porto Alegre show. Me and my friends arrived around 2 pm and there were already about 100 people in line. The gates weren't even open. We were so young and full of energy. We were already big time Rush fans, and I had just bought Vapor Trails a few weeks prior. There was no streaming, no smartphones, no social media, no KZread.. just a Rush CD to play. I knew most songs and lyrics by heart, and Roll the Bones was one of my favorite ones. Yet, out of all the songs, I remember clearly that Freewill spoke to me and hit the spot like never before, despite having heard it hundreds of times. As the show approached its ending, they opened those washing machines and threw a bunch of t-shirts to the crowd. I managed to grab one, but in the end I was overpowered by the crowd, who came ruthlessly after it. What a magical day. That was 20 years ago in Brazil, and I now... live in Canada.

Those sound like awesome memories. My very 1st concert was RUSH at Ivor Wynn stadium in Hamilton, August 1979 with attenence around 8000 fans. I had just turned 17 and had been a fan for a couple years. That RUSH show blew my freakin mind it was so good. Welcome to Canada, it's a great place to live. ✌️🇨🇦

He had every right to be on his own, away from the press and other prying eyes. He wasn't a showman or public entity like Geddy and Alex. He'd come in, do his thing and then hop on his motorcycle, heading off to the next gig. You didn't have to ask for any more from him at one point or another, and what he gave us was wonderful from beginning to end. We still miss you, Neil.

As a drummer I greatly admired Neil. He had far too much tragedy in his life.

RUSH in RIO had the most cameras than any show to date. Also they did not know how many fans they had in Brazil, cause they did not include the black market RUSH merchandise.

That concert had *** *_INSANE_* *** energy coming from the crowd. Geddy, Neal and Alex must have literally FELT that power coming at them on the stage, and it must have been almost intoxicating in it's effect. Glad they could still keep it together and play an excellent set.

He was and still is a huge Neil Young fanatic, and I got him into RUSH later on... But he would ESPECIALLY play the Live Trans Neil Young tape rewinding and replaying it all day all the time. I was around 5 years old when he first rented it and a second VCR from the video store - that way he could record it. That's how big of a tight ass he is LOL he would go through all of that hassle before spending a couple more dollars for the VHS version itself He used to pick me up and hold me like a guitar and then sing Computer Age or Sample And Hold loudly right along with Neil Young... I'd be laughing my ass off... he would then get tired and put me back down, and then I would make him pick me back up like a guitar and "play" me again just because it was fun
