UPDATE - 3/20@10:49PM: First off, for those of you wondering how to get on the Rush mailing list, just go to this link on Rush.net. I'm sure if there's pre-sale info to get out to fans, that's how they'll do it. I also have information that the official announcement on dates will occur on Monday the 26th at a Press Conference in NYC. So we have another 5 days or so to wait. My guess is that a good number of the dates will leak out before then though. It also looks like Anthem has instructed the ticket sites to pull their dates until the official announcement so don't worry about the dates being yanked from ticketmaster.com. Keep in mind that the list below is incomplete. Rush had said they'd be hitting 48 cities - my list only has 30.
UPDATE - 3/20@4:06PM: I have a date for the Noblesville, IN show at the Verizon Wireless Music Center; August 26th. I should also have a date for the Chicago show at Tinley Park soon.
UPDATE - 3/20@1:52PM: Pre-sale info! I've received word that pre-sales will begin next Tuesday, March 27th for selected cities and that musictoday.com will conduct the pre-sale similar to how it was done in 2004. Unfortunatlely, I didn't participate in the pre-sale last tour so I'm not completely sure what this means - I'm just reporting what I've heard. I've also received confirmation from a few different sources that the show in Dallas at the Smirnoff Center will take place on August 17th rather than August 10th.
In lieu of any official updates from Rush.com I thought I'd bring my updated list of unconfirmed/semi-confirmed/rumored tour dates to the top of the fold once again. Since my last update we've learned of the following new dates; Montreal on September 15th, Phoenix on July 27th (displacing the Salt Lake City show), Raleigh on June 18th, Columbus on September 2nd and - good news for me - Cleveland on August 30th. It also looks like the Homdel, NJ show will be on July 8th rather than the 7th. Shows that have been showing up on various ticket sites listing an on-sale date of March 31st include Bristow, VA; Scranton, PA; Saratoga Springs, NY; Darien Lake, NY; Homdel, NJ; Phoenix, AZ; Red Rocks in Colorado; and Pittsburgh, PA. Rumored locations without dates yet include Nobelsville, IN and Tinley Park, Illinois. As always, if you here any more news let me know. Many thanks to everyone who's been sending me updates.
