Her style fits Rush.

Having a "big name" drummer would be distracting, and everybody would complain that the drummer's established style wasn't right (Omar Hakim got dissed for his version of "YYZ" with them at the Taylor Hawkins thing... Terry Bozzio? Pat Mastelotto? Danny Carey?). They needed someone who was technically up to it but without a huge ego... and let's be honest, most were not going to be happy no matter who it was... it seems like they picked someone they like playing with and being around, which is always the biggest qualification.

I'm looking at the "Artist's Presale" for Inglewood now. Lowest I'm seeing is $310 for a pair, or $201 for a single ticket. I've seen Rush enough times, and this isn't even Rush. It's a Rush cover band. Sure, it's the world's greatest Rush cover band, but without Neil it isn't worth these premium prices. Stubhub is already showing 2nd deck tickets as low as $220.

Especially with the extra shows added, I think plenty of "reasonably" priced 2nd deck tickets (~$200 or even less) will be available on Stubhub. I think they overestimated the willingness of old codgers (who remember paying $10-20 for Rush tix back in the day, and still less than $100 for the R30 tour) to pay these ridiculous floor prices.

I’m going got decent seats in first section close to the stage but 18th row for just under $400 each.

Looking forward to it, will be my 3rd Rush concert, saw them at UNO Lakefront arena for the moving pictures tour when I was 14 and then again in college.

I wish Shannon Larkin would have got the gig.
