I'm jealous, and I don't get jealous easily.
I saw Rush in Portland, Or. a few weeks prior to joining the Navy, 1982-3? I think they just released "Moving Pictures." I'd been to a lot of concerts by then and the usual substances made crowds fairly rowdy. Rush had no opening act, really unusual back then. Rush took the stage and I swear the for most of the show the crowd sat silent in awe of the magic occurring on stage... either that or everyone dropped the same kind of acid. I remember Peart doing well over a 15min. drum solo. It was really something to see and experience.
Enjoy yourself.
