Was privileged to see
Rush on November 26th, 1977 in Philly at the Tower Theatre. Smaller venue and the opener was…… wait for it…… Tom Petty
And I caught a drumstick when Neil Peart tossed them out after his solo.

Years later I took my teenage daughter to see the “Roll the Bones” tour. Another killer show.
