Rush Concert

I saw Rush tonight at DTE.  It was a really packed show.  They played a lot of songs from their new album, Snakes and Arrows, which I guess just weren’t quite my style.  I expected to have more upbeat songs, but these were just a little too slow and melodramatic.  I just couldn’t get into them (maybe I’m just not that big of a Rush fan).  They had really cool lasers and other visual effects during the show, so at least there was something to look at during the show.  I know I wasn’t the only person who didn’t get all excited about the show—when I was leaving, the first comment I heard from someone was, “man, was that boring!”.  I didn’t stay for the encore, which might have very well been the best part, but I couldn’t afford to be stuck in traffic for an hour and then another 40 minutes to get home.  I had to get up for work the next morning.
