G 14: Sox/Jays

Wow. Halladay left with a 3-1 lead, Manny got a home run to tie it, then Cora (!) with the triple to score Pedroia in the top of the ninth. Pap's coming in.

Sox win!

yes indeed. A sad day to be Geddy Lee. I wonder if he was there - the Rush summer tour hasn't started yet, has it?

Maybe he has Paps on his fantasy team.

It hits Great Woods in late June, I think. I'm holding out for when they play the Garden. (Or maybe the Orpheum, this time around?) I'll bet Geddy was there, cursing the dome and its faux grass trappings.

I've seen Rush at the Garden... it was on the tour that they played all of 2112 a few years back. I was so excited. Worst show I've ever been to of any band. Rush does not get the acoustics of that room. There was the nastiest echo throughout the show that made the music unlistenable.

I think we were at the same show -- maybe 97?

My guess is that the Totonto Blue Jays played that day and lost, thus affecting Rush's ability to prepare for the acoustics in Boston.

I saw them on that tour, too...but I don't remember if I caught it at GW or the Garden. I've been pretty happy with their performances at the Garden - especially the TfE tour. Magical!

Are you sure it was the echo? And, not, say, the lacklustre songwriting?
