all solid songs that put Rush on the map!!!

chuck don't go "getting a big dick!!!"

I'll pass. I've been working as much OT as possible. And collecting aluminum cans for Springer fishing.

What's Rush? Is this some sort of music festival?

Getty Lee always sounded like a castrato to me and I can't abid a castrato.

i plan on selling reels, poles and teenage daughters for these tickets. springers will always come. Rush's time clock is ticking.

12 months in a year and they always seem to come during the 3 that I'm in Alaska, denied again!

Rush has become a PNW touring band. even neil peart has said since the advent of the outdoor venues they head out west during summer months.

daughters are going for 100$... one gets straight As. the other loves herself more than anyone else. both have extreme attitudes and are high maintanace. however price is firm. no jewing on price.

Rush...not going...and don't care.

Fish on...

todd if anything your reliable...LOL!

Gonna' be in Montana that week, and I don't care anyway. Besides, I like the Stones and the Beattles. Maybe it's an age thing, Brewer.

Good luck on those high maintenance teenage daughters. Don't know if you've heard or not, but you usually have to sweeten the pot and pay someone a bundle to take them off your hands. They used to call it a dowry.

recorded at le studeo, Rush's at the time favorite recording studio.

The only Rush song I like isn't even a Rush song...it's Geddy Lee singing backup with Bob and Doug McKenzie on "Take Off!"...

Without a doubt my favorite RUSH video.


Mf's favorite RUSH songs
1. Xanadu
2. La villa strangiato
3. Red Barchetta
4. Witch Hunt

Rush canned producer Terry Brown, and SADLY the music that I new and loved left with him.

Then in 2004 I became born again with IRON F U C K ing MAIDEN. And I haven't turned into a pillar of salt.

Mf

RUSH was the best show I saw last year, they killed it for 3+ hrs.
Iron Maiden was the biggest disappointment of the year.

GO DAWGS

Take off...to the Great White North!

OMC, you should have seen Iron Maiden in 1981 and 1982...instead of being disappointed, they would have been the greatest shows you've ever seen in your life.

Maiden back in the day=EPIC

Not sure if I should feel ok about having Vapid Angler agree with me or not...fukkit, I'll take the risk...he's absolutely right.

I missed the show on purpose. Getting in & out of the White river amphitheater is a JOKE. Besides for band with so many killer songs, to only play a 2 hour set is a Joke in it self. IMO

I will say this on behalf on Rush, They always sound great live. And they treat their fan's to a 3 hour show. Worthy of the $.

Mf

i've been to every rush tour since "test for echo" with "presto" being my 1st ever rush show. i have yet to leave a show thinking WOW that really sucked! they have always performed a very tight show. i expect this one the be the same. i'm jazzed to be taking my son hunter.

I saw Iron Maiden open for the Scorpions at Hec Ed July,1982........ EPIC is right. I recall thinking I might die if those old wood bleachers would had given way.

I've put a lot more thought into this topic, and taken brewer and magicfly's opinions into account, and this is what I have come up with:

Still not going, still don't care.

This I will agree with.

thats cool todd, we can agree to disagree. the entire point of this great thread was to see how many times i could get you to come back to it. and posting. proving that deep down, you really do care. !!!

I tried to rate this thread as "minus five stars"...but accidentally hit the "five stars" button...will 30 of you please rate it at minus 2 to even it out?

Thanks in advance.

at 2:10 seconds bob makes a huge statement in the song. mentioning Geddy's angelic voice. "song by angels"...

if i recall dave thomas went to high school with geddy. or something like that. dave offered to pay 10$ if geddy would do those vocal tracks for the song. i recall a radio interview with rush back in the 80s. geddy said about the 10$ offer. "hey 10$ is 10$ right?" with a laugh.

I'll be at the Gorge show. Any and all PPer's who plan on being there should stop by the camping area after the show for a beer or many.

I think this is my 13th or 14th Rush show........

My plan is to eventually see them end a tour in Toronto!

YYZ!!!!!!

Minor HiJack Alert!

For those that don't know, SCTV was produced up in Edmonton, Canada, eh. As the show was getting federal money, they had to put in what was called "Canadiana content", meaning something that promoted the understanding of Canadian culture. The Great White North with Bob and Doug was the producers/writers/comedians answer to the funding requirement. Those crazy hosers, eh!

? for Brewer. Why are sucking Todd's ass. Pretty phucking embarrassing .

Here's one of my favorites....from the good ole days. And no Geddy vocals, enjoy.

Still not going...still don't care. I didn't think it was possible, but the longer this thread is up here, the less I care...
