I've seen Rush at least 6 or 7 times, and all in all, this show was the very best. I like how they started with Clockwork Angels and moved their way back in time. The end of the 1st half, and the 2nd half especially, was phenomenal. It was great to hear Xanadu. It's interesting that for several years in the late 80s and in the 90s, Geddy's voice seemed to go lower in range, and he didn't hit the high notes as much (typical for many singers); But in recent years, he seems to be mostly back in the HIGHER registers (!!!) again like in the old days (and sometimes struggles a little now to go down to "lower" notes lol). Geddy's vocals were great last night, his bass playing made my jaw drop... Alex and Peart were incredible as usual. A powerful show and an epic show, one that I'll always remember. Also, this particular show focused less on video footage than some previous tours did (although a few "funnies" were certainly thrown in, to be sure), and more on the music. I'm so glad I went.
