    I've only recently discovered Rush. I was aware of them when I was a kid, but no one I hung out was into them, so I missed out. I'm beginning to appreciate them now, though.

    I watched that documentary this weekend and it was great.

    One of my favorite characters in my favorite TV series (Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys) is a huge fan and there was an episode where Alex Lifeson himself played a big part.

        My fave band of all time... The Doc was awesome. About time they get some of the credit they deserve for being the most talented power trio in Rock history. I actually got to meet them and hang out with them for an afternoon. It was truly one of the best days of my life. They were all so cool.

            Aw Sandy, did you have to tell us that?! Now I hate you!! And I really don't want to hate you!!

            Absolutely my favorite band since Moving Pictures, which might be the greatest rock album in the history of the known and unknown universe. 2112 is a masterpiece too.

            I caught them live at the Allentown fair a month or so ago. Best concert I have attended, none were even close. The entire Moving Pictures album song by song in order. I was in heaven. I drove home in a deep depression because the concert was over and I would not be able to catch another one on this tour.

                        Great documentary about the best band out there. I laugh every year at half of the folks that get inducted into the supposed Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Hall of Lame is more appropriate at times), when they still haven't been inducted. Between them not being in, and Kiss (whom I am not particularly a fan of, but recognize their accomplishments and influence), it really is a joke.

                          I was a huge rush fan for a long time, but they lost me with test for echo. I only like 3 songs on it, and have only liked one song they've done since then. But man do I love the bulk of their library.

                          I've been to alex's club in Toronto, read all of neil's books, and can flawlessly air drum 99% of Exit Stage Left, Signals, Power windows, and Hold Your Fire.

                            My favorite Rock Band song is Red Barchetta. I love to play bass on that tune, although I can't get past medium difficulty. Actually, that is my favorite Rush song, period.

                              Yeah, Witch Hunt is a very underrated tune, one of my favorites.
