This is fan footage from the R30 tour.

Hope it all works OK.

Rush
The Palace of Auburn Hills
Michigan
March 22nd 1994

A two-disc, pro-shot DVD.
I'm not sure of the original source.
Some hammy edits here and there
give it a slightly amateurish feeling.














































The celebrated Toronto trio are on fine form here.
Generally good quality and a must-have
for any Rush fan worth his or her salt.

Rush & AC/DC
Downsview Park
Tortonto, Canada
July 30th 2003

This has been on my mind for a while.
Rush washing their dirty laundry in public
and AC/DC offering dirty deeds for those on a limited budget.
Sometimes known as SARS-stock,
it was was a fund raiser in response to the SARS epidemic.
Funny how this led to an event with pushing 500,000 people
crammed shoulder to shoulder in a field.
Very different to Covid then huh?
SARS just went away as far as I know.
No lockdowns, no vaccines.
I haven't researched it so maybe I'm wrong.
I'd be interested to hear any views and/or info.
The Rolling Stones headlined
and other acts performed including Justin Timerlake.
Sorry I don't have any Stones footage.
Less sorry about the lack of Timerlake :)
I'm not a huge Rush fan but I like
the Farewell to Kings to Moving Pictures era
which makes up the bulk of their set.
Loved Bon Scott but can't stand Brian Johnson.
It's a full 4GB+ DVD so a big DL.
Good luck to those with poor bandwidth
although there seems to be much less complaining
about file size these days than there used to be.

Rush
Stadthalle Offenbach
Offenbach am Main
Germany
May 28th 1979

Here's the three amigos thrashing away
on their Hemispheres tour.
Well known soundboard that goes by many names.
Black Forest, Hemispheres in Frankfurt etc.
Doubt the good folks of Offenbach
would appreciate being tagged as Frankfurt!
They first played in Germany in 1977
and they were Offenbach (sorry)
Mrs. Luxor is German and she says she had
never heard of Rush before coming to the UK.
But Germans think Barclay James Harvest
are as good as Led Zeppelin.
And Saga are the best thing since sauerkraut.
I saw Rush on this tour about a month before
this recording. Support was from the wonderful
Max Webster who were promoting their
Million Vacations album at the time.
Which is a better album than
anything Rush ever did IMO.
There were free promotional flexi-discs
left on each seat. Might still have one somewhere.
I remember Kim Mitchel in his long stripy socks.
I still have the ticket...£3.50
Which a quick google told me
is equivalent to £17.50 in today's money.
About the price of two beers at the venue bar.
If you're lucky!

Titus
