    For what it is worth, my wife and daughter totally agree with you!

      I saw Rush at the Los Angeles Forum and was in the front row, baby!
      Circa 1989 or so

      I would love to see Moving Pictures live but even better would be 2112!

            Actually, as much as I'm not a fan...I don't "hate" them...their "hits"
            are tolerable.

              ????? Altho' I'd say they are one of the best rock bands to have a decent
              sized career...their live shows have never been ones to get good reviews.
              From what I've heard they are basically lifeless onstage.

                In the early 80's sometimes I would mix some of their songs up with Styx

                refering to Rush, that is

                  You are out of your mind, thread starter. There's something there for ALMOST everybody (almost is the category that you fall into). Better luck next year!

                    Weezer's not a bad act. And I've heard Gaslight Anthem on WXPN - they weren't as bad as some of the stuff you hear on traditional rock stations.

                        What a drag. We had Sammy Hagar, Charlie Daniels, Steppenwolf, The Animals, Los Lonley Boys, Jonny Lang, Foghat, and Blue Oyster Cult at the Naperville RibFest. It was a great 4th of July weekend full of good music and food.

                          Regardless, the best drummer/percusionist ever in Neil Peart is worth seeing.

                          And what about Subdivision?

                          But I do realize Geddy Lee's voice is not the best but he's a good bassist.

                            A guy I used to work with WORSHIPS Rush, and to a lesser extent BOC... anyhoo, whenever he was on, the radio would be confiscated and it was an all Rush day.

                            And being a jackass, as I tend to be, I would walk up to him and play stupid... and ask, "Who's THIS band? I like the singer."

                            Rob would say, "It's Rush."

                            And I would say, " Man, that chick has a set of pipes. She hot?"

                            That usually earned me a stack of comics being thrown in my direction, but man it was worth it... even if it was a stack of super chromium Valients and Malibu's.

                              Neil Peart is the best drummer to ever pick up a set of drumsticks. That is not an opinion, that is a fact. There are some that are close, I'll grant that.

                              Geddy is one HECK of a bassist. Watch Red Barchetta live if you get a chance. He plays bass like it's lead guitar.
