OK, this isn't an album review, but it's the best place to say that I am fairly monumentally hyper right now to say the least as I just got a text from my brother-in-law who lives over in Queens, NY and he has our tickets to see Rush on October 22 on the new Clockwork Angels tour, we're going to the show at the new Barclays Centre in Brooklyn, which is the brand new arena they have built over there to be the home of the Brooklyn Nets NBA team, who have relocated from New Jersey. In fact the place isn't even open yet, Rush will be one of the first bands to play there, Jay Z gets to open the place with a show in September, though they also have Journey, Dylan, The Who, Neil Young, and Leonard Cohen all playing there over the coming months.

Every Rush tour is a monumental event, and a huge deal for Rush fans as there probably isn't a better live band around for the past 30+ years, but this one is special I think as it's in support of what many fans (me included) think is one of their best albums of their extraordinary career.

Got great seats too, so I owe by bro-in-law a large, expensive drink or two.

Anyone else know yet if they are seeing the tour?

Here's the dates for USA/Canada this fall, and also Europe (which is in Spring 2013) ...

RUSH - Welcome
Oct 28 in Cleveland@Quicken Loans Arena,My younger brother already has the Flash seats,Damm near the same seats we got we seen the Time Machine tour in april 2011 where they previewed BU2B

I enjoy alot of Rush tracks on all their lp's but Moving Pictures Is my favorite,All tracks :bow:

Thoughtful and detailed review. I am however forced to disagree. This is a tour de force and one of if not the rock album of 2012.
