Pavement? Well, that's just a pity you never gave 'em a chance.

What? No. Rush. I gave Pavement a chance.

These albums are fantastic if u like some RUSH but don't know which ones to get..

2112
Farewell to Kings
Hemispheres
Permanent Waves
Moving Pictures
Signals

i hesitate to put Grace Under Pressure bc it's so different then anything prior, and has a sorta 80's dated thing going, but nevertheless the last solid one imho...

Did anybody see them on Colbert last week?

High-larious.
Talking to them about their musical influences:

"Have you guys ever written a song so long, that by the end of it you had actually influenced yourselves from the beginning part?"

They're incredibly talented and fun to play (on real guitar, not Guitar Hero). But I can't stand the singer.

I picked up a rush album the other day at the pawnshop for two bucks. Presto. It's not too bad and I'm a fan of their popular stuff.

I saw it. They cut to commercial during "Tom Sawyer" and came back from commercial break and they were still playing the same song. I know it was supposed to be a joke but Tom Sawyer is only 4 1/2 minutes long.

They're better than Bon Jovi.

charles eugene 07.26.2008 11:21 AM

Theyre pretty good, Geddy Lee is a talented bass player, Im always drawn to that.

That Colbert quote is one of the best things i have heard. :D haha

batreleaser 07.26.2008 03:53 PM

amaziung musicians, dodgy catalo, chronicles ang live at rio are amazing

EMMAh 07.26.2008 03:54 PM

Never liked them that much at all.

DeadDiscoDildo 07.26.2008 03:58 PM

Hate his voice, Hate Neil Pert. Even in my cocaine phase I'd rather listen to steve shelley or ringo starr over neil pert.

Not that they are bad players, but I feel no emotional connection to them...they seem like one of those bands who have no emotional connection to their own music.

DeadDiscoDildo 07.26.2008 06:43 PM

You gave me a neg rep because I said I hate Rush? Doesn't that contradict your post. Unless you sir are a back peddler or just dumb, go to the bands you secretly like thread and chalk rush up on there.

ZEROpumpkins 07.26.2008 09:08 PM

Rush are with Satan.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.26.2008 09:10 PM

Satans good at what he does.
