Rush Rules!

Rush is, in my opinion, the greatest band on the planet. Of that I have no doubt. They're simply timeless.

Hehe, true. They're one of the most talented (and well known at thesame time) bands ever.

I don't really like the vocals though. I can stand them and all but better vocals and they would probably be my favorite band.

Yeah the vocals sound like a 15 year old guy who just got kicked in the nuts. HARD. But besides that, they are a good band.

Yeah, but I don't mind the vocals. The only thing I don't understand is how Geddy manages to sing Big Money while nailing that sweet-*** bass line.

I used to hate Rush with a passion, and now, I don't. I think they absolutely rule. I'm glad i wised up.

Considering that Dream Theater is more skilled than Rush (a very hard thing to do). I'd love to heard that.

I know It's all about the fingers, but where one of mine go, the rest go! The only way I might be able to finger-play is with the index and pinky, but my pinky's too weak.

Practice has never been my friend either.
And the only Rush song I can play is The Temples Of Syrinx.

Yeah. Totally. I'm glad I got into Rush while I'm young (I'm fourteen), so I can appreciate and learn all their stuff early in life.

You do know that The Temples Of Syrinx is just a part of 2112 right?

Ah man, that is a good question. A Change Of Seasons is an awesome song but I would have to go with 2112. 2112 is just an awesome song, not to mention a wonderful album.
