Christmas!
New Years!
Easter!
Birthday!

All rolled into one! That’s what today feels like, for Rush has announced new tour dates for 2015! It is Celebration Day! They are touring to celebrate their 40th anniversary even though this summer marks 41 years. Well… as long as they can still count to 7 and play Cygnus X-1 I will forgive their math error.

Opening night is my birthday. Too bad it’s in Tulsa, otherwise I’d say we should join the throngs of similarly obsessed fans and get ourselves there. But… it’s Tulsa. $5.00 says they did that on purpose. (sorry Oklahoma, said the proud Masshole)

Key dates:
June 23rd in Boston.  Obviously.
June 29 in New York. We’ve seen them at Madison Square Garden twice. How about Garden Grady #3?
June 17 and 19 in Toronto. I’ve always wanted to see them do a home town show.
July 25 in Las Vegas. I’ve always wanted to go to Las Vegas. Why not go for Rush?
August 1 in Los Angeles. They aren’t playing in San Diego. L.A. is as close as they get. Is it close enough? Yes!
