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.
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
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.

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.

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!
