I've never been to a Rush concert before but I've been to a lot of other concerts. Plan on bringing what you paid for the ticket if you want something of the band's. But it's different every time.

I went to a coheed and cambria show and they had shirts for like 20 dollars, so the norm.

But I've also gone to a Dragon Force concert and their shirts were 35-40 dollars. So it all depends.

Also don't forget beer money!

Haha just have someone over 21 there get it for you. Or don't drink. You're choice. Either way you're going to have to bring extra money. Concerts are fucking expensive. But at least you're supporting the artist because you are probably stealing their music.
