Both of these shows riots broke out at. At the Rush concert it was full blown with tear-gas. It must not have been that traumatic because my friends that were there (we were all 15 or 16)and weren't hurt or traumatized by any of it. It seems like the cops were probably over reacting. I can understand why there might be rioting at a Nugent show, but Rush?!? Was it festival seating or something?
