UPDATE - 4/29@2:02PM: All Music Today pre-sales through the Rush Music Today website have closed. However, like I'd mentioned earlier, several of the shows have Fan Club or Music Today pre-sales listed at Ticketmaster now that are accepting a password of RUSHMT. I've listed these in the tour section but I have no idea how long they will last. Where these came from or how anyone was supposed to know the password is still a mystery. Maybe there's some super secret Rush fan club somewhere that only really cool people get to be a part of? :)
UPDATE - 4/28@9:18PM: Now this is weird. Those Rush Fan Club pre-sales that are listed at Ticketmaster for some of these shows actually work using a password of RUSHMT. I'm completely baffled since Rush.com never sent out any sort of announcement about this. Thanks to reader namesake who somehow discovered that this password works. So for those dates that are no longer listed at the Rush Music Today site you might want to give the Ticketmaster fan pre-sales a shot. Whatever.
UPDATE - 4/28@9:06PM: The Las Vegas Music Today pre-sale is closed.
UPDATE - 4/28@3:48PM: The West Palm Beach show Music Today pre-sale is closed now too.
UPDATE - 4/28@1:27PM: It now looks like the Tampa show Music Today pre-sale is closed.
UPDATE - 4/28@10:41AM: Wait... USANA now seems to be open again. :)
UPDATE - 4/28@9:42AM: Music Today pre-sales have closed for USANA, Boston, Bristow and Atlanta.
UPDATE - 4/27@2:42PM: As if things weren't already confusing enough, now for some reason Ticketmaster is listing Fan Club pre-sales complete with a password requirement on their site for some of the shows. This is a mistake. There is no Rush fan club and the only fan pre-sales are being run through Music Today. These pre-sales are completely free and only require that you sign up at the site; no password required.
UPDATE - 4/27@1:03PM: Las Vegas has been posted.
UPDATE - 4/27@12:01PM: The USANA Amphitheatre show is now posted.
UPDATE - 4/27@11:25AM: Both Wichita and Houston (Central timezone shows) are now posted, albeit a bit late.
UPDATE - 4/27@9:40AM: Boston, Bristow, Atlanta, and both Florida dates (all the Eastern time zone ones) are now up on the Rush Music Today site. The others should be added throughout the morning.
According to the latest email from the Rush.com email list, round 3 of the Rush Time Machine Tour Music Today pre-sales begins tomorrow morning at 10AM for 9 more shows, although at the time of this posting the dates are not yet listed at the Rush Music Today website. They should however be posted by tomorrow morning. Several Rush VIP and CITI pre-sales will also kick off tomorrow and there will be various Live Nation, venue and radio pre-sales beginning later in the week, although at this time the pre-sale information listed at Live Nation and Ticketmaster for these shows seems to be incomplete for many of the dates. Hopefully the dates/times will all be straightened out by tomorrow morning. For information on the different types of pre-sales see this Rush ticket sales and pre-sales guide that I put together. And for all the details regarding the times of the various pre-sales and any password information, stay tuned to the tour page. Remember - all times given are local to the respective venue. Here are the dates with links to both the Music Today pre-sales (MT) and regular ticket pre-sales (Rush VIP, CITI, etc.):
