Transcript: "Rush - Knocking Down The Walls, Hamilton Place, February 9, 1976"

"Rush - Knocking Down The Walls, Hamilton Place, February 9, 1976" is from the official concert program for Rush headlining Hamilton Place in Hamilton, Ontario, a full three months before the release of 2112. This was the first known show AFTER the Down the Tubes tour: at this point Polygram had already written off the band as a flash in the pan, yet the text of this program reveals another story. It's almost premonitient. This show was unknown until recently, and lands right in between previously known dates of the Caress of Steel and 2112 tours; the 2112 album was likely recorded in the weeks preceding this show.
