I went to see RUSH the other night and holy shit....what a fantastic show. It was my first time seeing them and I was blown away by Neil Peart's 11min drum solos. Seriously had to pick my jaw up off the floor. They played a lot of classics except Limelight and Working Man which I really wanted to hear, some obscure tracks that I didn't know and new material from Clockwork Angels. Damn, I wish I saw them when they played smaller venues. They started the show with this:

Nice!! These guys are your neighbors and you're only seeing them for the first time ? I saw them at Massey Hall back in the mid 80's while l was on summer vacation (think l was 15 yrs old) and it was an insane show. Neil Peart is one of my favorite drummers of alltime. That was my first trip to Toronto also. Outstanding rock trio, can't believe they haven't been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Re: Rush.

Yes, I know it's weird that I haven't seen them before. I was into them when I was 13 - 14 and then didn't really listen to them again until the past couple of years.

Re: Rush.

Neil Peart is a drummer's God. His drum sequences in their "Roll the Bones" album is nothing but legendary. That is hands down my favorite Rush album of all time.

Re: Rush.

Saw them in Oslo in 2007 - a life defining moment, what an incredible concert. Encore was passage to bangkok and slammed right into YYZ. Yes, there were tears.

Re: Rush.

I thought this thread was going to be about cocaine consumption.

Saw Rush a few years back. I don't usually attend rock shows and can't speak on the band's merit as technical musicians, but I enjoyed the music.

Re: Rush.

How a band like Rush is not in the R&R H.O.F. is beyond me.....
