UPDATE - 9/28@11:07PM: So the edited Time Machine concert is now over. What did everyone think? I saw many familiar faces in the crowd shots. Here are the tracks they left out of the first set:
Time Stand Still
Stick It Out
Workin' Them Angels
Leave That Thing Alone
And the tracks left out of the second set:
Drum solo: Moto Perpetuo (featuring Love For Sale)
O'Malley's Break (Alex acoustic)
Closer To The Heart
2112 Overture/Temples of Syrinx
La Villa Strangiato
They included the Real History of Rush intro and intermission videos along with a new outro video in place of I Still Love You Man. The outro vid is a continuation of the intro vid and features the 3 guys playing the polka version of Closer to the Heart.

Tonight we'll get our first glimpse of Rush's upcoming Time Machine 2011: Live in Cleveland concert video when VH1 Classic kicks off their Rush Hashanah celebration. The station will be airing 24 hours of Rush programming beginning tonight at 7PM EST/PST in celebration of the Jewish New Year. The showcase of the celebration will be the premiere of an edited version of the Time Machine concert which will run from 8PM until 10:30PM, which means they'll be showing about 1:45-2 hours of the actual concert after commercial breaks are factored in. It'll be interesting to see what gets edited out. Also on the docket are the Rush Classic Albums special, the Rush documentary Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage, R30 and Rush in Rio. VH1 Classic first celebrated Rush Hashanah back in 2008 and also in 2010, where they premiered the Rush Classic Albums special. The Time Machine 2011: Live in Cleveland DVD will release on November 8th with the Blu-ray version releasing on December 20th. The film will also be getting a theatrical release beginning October 26th.

at #140...well put but i like to express it like this.....
i always like to say that there are those of us who get rush...and there is the rest of the world...rush is like a secret that you feel fortunate enough to know...the rest of the world if they only knew what we did then we wouldnt be special for having these three guys in our lives...and Real Rush fans are special...
Not happy with the 'canned' crowd noise - sounds like fecking background tape hiss and is distracting. Hope the quality is better on the Bluray 5.1 release. Classic gig could be ruined by clumsey sound editing.!
Just want to say thank you for all the interesting comments (and thanks Ed of course), I'm a European fan so I missed the broadcast (haven't checked out youtube but don't know if/when I will, maybe a glimpse because I don't want to see too much before the dvd has arrived). R U S H rules and so do their fans, I often feel lonely as a Rush fan but not here!
@double-agent--> Gotcha Julie, how could I forget! I am very pleased to have gotten so much airtime, and just so we're clear--it's a BUBBA BBQ apron (although I do have a Gershon's apron too).
@debskis--> Instead of luck I should have said it was a lot of preparation meets opportunity!
@losingit2112--> Danny! It was epic! After the show my wife posted the following on Facebook:
"Spend the evening standing between two air drummers at a Rush show - wake up feeling like you have taken a beating from a double bass drum pedal."

Sounds good, I am right on the border or WV and Ohio, so we are probably about 4 hours apart!!
I live in Cincinnati, so yes, next tour we can try to hit some shows together!
I wondered if he was talking to Petie...
Hey Cajava,
It sounds like we live somewhere near each other since you went to Columbus and Louisville. I am in West Virginia, so when they tour next year, if you want to go more times than our husbands want to, we can go together or meet up. I will see them as many times as possible!! I watched most of the TM the other night, alone too :( Just be glad that you got your sister to go to Cleve., I wanted to go so bad, but John wouldn't budge, and my sister lives all the way down in North Carolina.
Geddy was talking to Petie Lee, during The Camera Eye.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the TM concert the other night. Sure it was edited and the picture quality wasn't sharp, but all that did was get me more excited (I didn't think that was possible) for the DVD/Bluray/CD/MP Vinyl release. Geddy's vocals were amazing and all three played phenomenally. Sometimes the hand shots look unreal & speeded up b/c they're playing so fast and jamming in so much music! And it sounds hokey, but it brings a tear to my eye to be a part of their world and watch them play and interact with each other; it's obvious they love what they're doing and have great love and respect for each other. The fact that I (and so many other RIABers) saw this show live makes it even more mind blowing and special.
So who was Geddy talking to at the beginning of Camera Eye? (Sorry if someone here already answered this and I didn't catch it.)
Cygnus_72, "listen to my music and hear what it can do". I know music is subjective, but it's still hard for me to understand how my friends and family--people that I love--don't get Rush like I do.
Rushgirl, you sound like me. My husband is a Rush fan, but because they are all I ever listen he is burned out on them. We saw Rush 2x together on the TM tour (Columbus & Louisville) but I couldn't get him to go to Cleveland with me so I took my sister, who is not a Rush fan but went with me because I wanted to go so bad. He went to bed the other night and I watched the TM concert alone.
Sorry for the long post.
Rush on.
double-agent, nice to meet you, maybe we do share a brain!! Sometimes I worry that I am too obsessed with RUSH, is there such a thing??!! Does this make me an official RAT??
jediyyz, yes I saw your daughter and son too, I wrote to her on facebook as soon as I realized it was her jumping like that!! Maybe you will show up on the DVD, keep hope!! At least you were there, I saw Pitts. and Nashville and ran out of money :(
But I did win my one and only M & G for Nashville, that was one of the top experiences in my life!!!!
Jason, I'm the one who bought your two Gorge tickets via counterparts!!! ;)
