does Rush suck?
They seem to be a love 'em or hate 'em kind of band. I had a friend who loved them to death, so much so that he convinced me to go see them in concert a decade ago. I still hate them. A lot.

I don't hate them, but I have a limited weekly allowance, which can easily be exceeded by an overzealous Classic Rock DJ on a Rush Hour Binge.

I have my Rush days. Neil Peart is one of the bad ass drummers of all time.

Favorite band of all time.
There is unrest in the forest There is trouble with the trees For the maples want more sunlight And the oaks ignore their pleas The trouble with the maples And they're quite convinced they're right They say the oaks are just too lofty And they grab up all the light But the oaks can't help their feelings If they like the way they're made And they wonder why the maples Can't be happy in their shade There is trouble in the forest And the creatures all have fled As the maples scream "Oppression!" And the oaks just shake their heads So the maples formed a union And demanded equal rights "The oaks are just too greedy We will make them give us light!" Now there's no more oak oppression For they passed a noble law And the trees are all kept equal By hatchet, axe, and saw

rush is my favorite band.
i have 2112 license plates. i can't wait till progressive stuff makes a comeback. i'm sure there is a lot of musical talent wasting away out there because you can make alot of money with 3 chords and a 4/4 time sig.

Rush was red hot back in the day just like a lot of other bands; their sound was new and different at the time. They were very popular with the stoners.
Like someone else said I have my rush days. |

 The live show proved to me that there is a ton of musical talent in that band, but the lead singer needs his nuts to drop. That's enough to ruin the music for me. |

They are aight, but I definately have to be in the right mood to hear them. If I've had a shitty day then I'm really not in the mood to hear some Rush.

Rush rocks....but I like Tool too. What to vote?
...I strip away the old debris That hides a shining car A brilliant red Barchetta From a better vanished time I fire up the willing engine Responding with a roar Tires spitting gravel I commit my weekly crime Wind In my hair Shifting and drifting Mechanical music Adrenaline surge... Well-weathered leather Hot metal and oil The scented country air Sunlight on chrome The blur of the landscape Every nerve aware Suddenly ahead of me Across the mountainside A gleaming alloy air car Shoots towards me, two lanes wide I spin around with shrieking tires To run the deadly race Go screaming through the valley As another joins the chase Drive like the wind Straining the limits of machine and man Laughing out loud with fear and hope I've got a desperate plan At the one-lane bridge I leave the giants stranded at the riverside Race back to the farm To dream with my uncle at the fireside |

Rush is one of the greatest progressive rock trios of all time. If you don't like them, listen to Moving Pictures. If something on that album doesn't get you going, your mental.

I prefer the concept albums like Caress of Steel, 2112, and Hemispheres over alot of the other stuff. Permanent Waves is damn good, Farewell to Kings was good....
Bytor and the Snowdog live is pretty damn cool ! They started loosing me after Signals... |
