Ahh, you should've made it to their last show, the
Test For Echo tour,
"An Evening With Rush". They played all 20 minutes of 2112, the first
time in about 20 years. And a lot of other classic Rush tunes as well.
Well, first let me apologize for the off-topic post, but I simply *must*
respond. Please forgive me.
Rush is tied with Dream Theater (a Rush-influenced group) as my favorite
band. I'm young enough to never have been at a Rush show, but I *will* be
at at least one show on this upcoming tour, since it may be their last.
Since it seems that there are some other Rush fans here, let me throw out
this link:
http://www.rushpetition.com/
That's an online petition to communicate fans' desire to hear some
rarities in the set list. They have a list of songs that have not beel
played live for at least a decade, and you get to vote for 5 of them.
The final results will be submitted to Rush's record company when the new
album is released. If you are a Rush fan, it is your _duty_ to go sign
the petition now!
For those who don't know, 2112 is a Sci-Fi type
story song
Yes. They got the idea for it from an Ayn Rand book.
