Rush in Tampa tonight

[96cobra10101]

Still have ringing ears. 10th row center, sound was awesome. Alex and Geddy were spot on. I've never seen the 2 of them have as much fun on stage as they did tonight. Geddy was doing his trademark trot all night long and Alex was non stop mugging to the crowd. I even caught a shirt from Alex!!! Second time in 2 shows. The string section was icing on the cake. Wasn't sure I was going to dig that part, but they held there own with the power trio.

Life lessons concerning concerts ;
1. Pay for the good seats if you can afford it.
2. Take earplugs (just in case)
3. Take a cab or public transit ( I'm a lush ok maybe not that bad, but it's nice not to be concerned about transport.
4. Go with good friends, the memories are great to share down the line.
5. Go nuts and act like a kid when they play your favorites!
6. Take great pictures like you obviously did.

Cheers,Mac
