An Air Force roommate of mine used a lot of Rush to help me learn to play the bass, took me forever to be able to keep up with a song like 'Distant Early Warning'.....but I did :D

I think you mean Led Zeppelin was the best rock band of the 70's :)

Watched it for a second time last night.  I noticed that after the song Ghost Rider was finished, Peart immediately snapped both drumsticks in two and tossed them to stage left.  I wonder if they were damaged or broken or if that particular song motivated him to do that for some other reason?

I finally watched his new drum solo. Disk two and going through my fav songs took up the first look. It started pretty disappointing then just got insane. He's a bot.

Cygnus X-1 should have been played complete, and Earthshine was very refreshing live.

The crowd jumping to YYZ was amazing, and when they were doing the arms in the air "we are not worthy" during Freewill I couldn't believe it. Brazilians are nuts. I dug it.

Thanks for recommending it. I took a chance thinking it'd be a bunch of old farts looking for a nostalgia trip but man-0-man was I wrong. That Rush in Rio dvd is the sheit. Friggin Rocks! Chill bumps watchin all them Brazilians SING YYZ! Reminded me of a Cure concert in SD, A Forest. Friggin audience was louder than the band.

That multi angle thing was quit cool also. Never seen it before.

btw, how do ya get the bonus stuff to run? Says enter a code, something on the jacket or 2112? Couldn't get it to work. Also, never was prompted to hit enter for the Bytor movie thing...do ya need to run it on a computer? I'm a dolt i guess.

Thanks again!

Glad you bought it and enjoyed it. The Brazilians, again, wow.

Makes the many Rush concerts I've been too, in reflection, kinda dissapointing. And the YYZ sing-along got me too. The crowd was a moving mass of energy.



To find the egg for Anthem, do this...

Follow these directions.

Disk 2


On the main menu, press 2
Once you get picture for the drum solo, press menu
You're back at the main menu for disk 2...
Press 1
Once you get picture for YYZ, press menu
You're back at the main menu...
Press 1
Once you get picture for YYZ press menu
You're back at the main menu...
Press 2
Once you get picture for the drum solo press menu
You're back at the main menu and is now shows "Special Bonus: Anthem 1975"

Just in time for Halloween! Geddy is scary in that video but it is cool.

The guys in Rush grew up near me. They used to play High Schools around here in the early 70's. A.Y. Jackson Secondary School in Toronto.

Yup.

Alex is a pilot. I found a good read where he flew for fun out of Dubuque, Iowa in 1980, the Moving Pictures Concert I saw. That's where I fly into on American Eagle everytime I go home. Was cool to read it as it's close to home.

Anyway, ya, I get the YYZ triangle intro. Cool stuff.

Rush sucks. That guy's voice sounds like a cross between a slipping powersteering belt and a strangled cat.

Oh don't get me wrong, weight lifters and Jon Bon Jovi always made me like good looks and neato girl wimpering voices over song structure, but I like Rush for some reason.
