I've seen them since 1977 and never missed a tour since. "Always up front"  Why am I selling ? I figure it's time to pass the torch to another Fan to enjoy these as I have. "were only immortal for a limited time" I already have other memerobilia as well as life long memories of all those great tours gone by. I can even go to youtube and watch Alex toss a guitar pick to my son this past tour in 08.  Here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pttmHCsq6DM My son was wearing my original 1979 Hemisphere's T shirt. Alex gently tosses the pick to him during "trees" about 30 seconds into the video. Ironically I caught his pick at the same venue in 07. Not to be outdone. A week later in Saratoga. We won front row center an hour before showtime and my son was handed Neils sticks after his drum solo.  I have many stories and memories from past tours but I'll keep it recent. Here's the scoop on the dice whom I purchased from Jimmy Johson who was Alex guitar tech for a very long time. These are his exact words. "They are made of wood, not solid, and it looks to be birch but that's tough to tell. The black dots are recessed approximately 1/8" just as real dice have their dots sunk in. Size is 6" on each side. There were two different sizes of dice used in the RTB video shoot. The larger ones which made up the wall and set treatments and the smaller ones which are the one that tumble through the air in the video. Those were the ones taken on the road and placed by Jimmy Jo on top of Ged's bass cabinets . There are some old velcro tabs on the underneath and these were used to keep them from rattling around when Ged played through the cabs. They were originally painted in a sort of distressed look and they have some scuffs on them too from all the handling from being on the road".  I've attached some pictures (courtesy of Ross Halfin) where you can see the dice clearly visible atop Geddy's Cab. I believe you can also see the dice in the Presto tour program. You can also click on this link to see them live in 1992 where you clearly see these dice in the 1st 10 seconds of the bootleg concert video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqJV6hiEgvE   These dice are authentic. The one's used on Geddy's Amp as you see in the pictures below and in the posted video link. If you have any doubts. Don't bid. I have no immediate need to sell these. There's no fancy COA which you can get with 1000s of fake autographs on ebay.  I can print this description and have it notarized if you feel the need of some type of reaasurance. Thanks for looking !   SHIPPING INSURANCE Shipping insurance is mandatory. I've simplified determining insurance.

SHIPPING COST Most shipping cost include a small handling fee and packing material cost that are nessecary to pack properly. Most cases shipping cost is based on dimensional weight rather than actual. Domestic shipping: A flat shipping cost of $25.00 anywhere within the continental USA. Canada will cost $45.00 International shipping: All international bidder must contact me for shipping cost prior to bidding. PATIENCE Please be patient and understand that most of the items I auction have special packing needs and therefore take longer to ship out than something that can be just thrown into an envelope or small box.
