    Best.Band.EVAR though sad that they have never played Australia... Geddy came here in the 80's to check out the "scene" here and decided against touring here... I think this was a bad mistake because with the influx of Canadians that have come over here, it is to them that I credit the underground love for Rush over here.

    2112 was the perfect album. Caress of Steel and Fly By Night were great too. The late 70s albums were good, but not as good as the earlier ones. Moving Pictures is their most recent album I can listen to. The 80s had too much synths and their newer albums just sound like boring normal rock.

    Fantastic band great musicians. And Neil pert is probably the best drummer around. I love the documentary on them behind the lighting and stage.

    Good choice. My fave on that album has to be The Fountain of Lamneth. That song is just so epic and Geddy's voice on Panacea is sooo sweet. :D

    Rush rocked in the 70s and 80s......... No question of it!!! (And they had the balls to say they didnt like the sound of thier 1981 and 1983 record that had been DIGITALLY MASTERED so they got a different producer WHO DIDNT DIGITALLY COMPROMISE THEM!!!!!! (Thier 1984 album is straight analogue))

    I admire them BIG TIME for that!!


    ANALOG IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
