Rush returned to Boston Wednesday night at the TD Garden as part of their Clockwork Angels tour, in support of their latest album of the same name.
The concert featured no opening act (just Rush and Rush only), over 3 hours of music and a full-string ensemble to boot, all on the heels of the band’s recent nomination for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — a joyous night at the Garden indeed.
Anyone can write a concert review, but it’s quite different when multiple concertgoers are the ones doing the reviewing. If you weren’t able to make it out to the show, or just wanna relive the evening one final time, here’s our very own concert review made exclusively by the fans in attendance!
Rush last night = awesome!

Jason Ebbs (@jasonebbs) October 25, 2012I saw Rush tonight, YYZ and Tom Sawyer were worth the ticket price alone. So many gooey bass lines and old men air-drumming.

Jay Maillet (@JDMaillet) October 25, 2012So, Rush were kind of amazing. No opener, 3hr set, beautifully designed and executed stageshow (incl a flock of screen/lighting rig robots).
