[QUOTE=NeilA]I agree...keep it alive. Why is it that the interesting threads die a death and the boring "Metallica are amazing" threads go on forever with copious amounts of pointless posts? :)[/QUOTE]

That's a good question

/wants to see R30

Hell yea, they're godly live. Is it out yet?

/knows there was discussion about this a while back

I just got 2112, and I absolutely love it. I plan to buy some more albums soon. Suggestions?

A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres, Permenant Waves. That order.
But pretty much you can't go wrong with anything from '75-'81.

Yeah, I enjoy their '75-'81 albums the best. The newer sound has attracted me all that much but I'm giving it a few chances to grow on me. Test For Echo is a pretty good album but nothing can compare to their earlier "rockier" material.

2112 is a fantastic album with not even one weak track.

R30 is out <3 The overture is my bed time story.

Haha Joking. Great DVD, And Pearts solo is sweet.

I really need to pick that up. I loved Rush In Rio, I still watch it all the time.

Rush in Rio is an amazing dvd. It always gets me pumped to go to one of their concerts (never been to one)

I saw them two Augusts ago. They were insane. Absolutly insane. On their next tour, I highly suggest you go.

oh yeah im definitly going

Two of my dad's friends (really cool guys and HUGE Rush fans) they said we could all go on a road tip to somewhere when they tour next. They got me and my dad into rush

*Wants to join in on the road trip*

I am so at the next tour they do. It is a must! Anyone have details?

I don't know.. I know they went in for recording their new album and my dads friends said maybe late summer/next fall it would be released. So after that sometime :)

Ill get em downed tonite. Try not to stay too busy. :thumb:

^^^ I had my friend in the middle of a download and a message popped up saying the connection with the server was reset. We are trying it again now. The other one wouldnt work either for some reason... Something about it being in the wrong format? We have used YSI and had it work before so I dont know whats up with this.

Ill keep trying...

Yea, of course. Whenever's cool with you. Its not like I need 'em by a deadline or anything.

Just a few questions about the (awesome) song 2112. I've always loved epic story-telling stuff like this, but I'm just confused about one thing.

I went to a lyrics site, and they have a prose paragraph for the "Overture" before "The meek shall inherit the Earth" that wasn't in the song. Was this in the album liner notes or whatever? The same for The Temples Of Syrinx" part, and all the other parts as far as I can tell. Just clear that up for me, as I'm sure that's just what it is.

Thanks :)

Which lyrics site?

[url]http://www.oldielyrics.com[/url]

I find that is the best source of Classic Rock lyrics out there, it basically split up the different parts into seperate songs, and had a paragraph or two in quotations before the sung lyrics. Pretty interesting.

yeah it is.. it was originally a poem written by neil peart but he had to write it into song-form so changed it a bit. But yes, the other parts are in the albums liner notes

...bump >_>

Wow, I just finnished listening to Grace Under Pressure. AMAZING ALBUM! I've always loved their 80's sound and that one is probably my favorite by them.

yeah, rush is cool. Geddy Lee is amazing with all the instruments he plays. Neil Peart and Alex Lifeson are sweet too. My favorite song by them is YYZ.

All I have is 2112, what should I get next?

Hey, does anyone know how to unlock the easter eggs on the Rush in Rion DVD?

[QUOTE=Obi One Kenodi]Hey, does anyone know how to unlock the easter eggs on the Rush in Rion DVD?[/QUOTE]

im pretty sure it says on the back of the dvd case...

[QUOTE=MidnightRider]All I have is 2112, what should I get next?[/QUOTE]

hmmm probably Moving Pictures, Farewell to Kings, or Hemispehres

[QUOTE=MidnightRider]All I have is 2112, what should I get next?[/QUOTE]

Probably [B]Hemisphere[/B]'s if you're in to [B]2112[/B]. I love [B]Fly By Night[/B]...especially the last track [B]In The End[/B]. Actually the reality is that I love everything they did up to and including the 1993 album [B]Counterparts[/B]. If you listen to their albums in order there's this really nice progression in their sound and musical style...a steady evolution that gives each album it's own identity and sound.

anyone know whats up with the 71st page?

EDIT: neeevermind

Hemispheres has the same album format as 2112 (big epic title song and then a few others). I think that the songs on Hemispheres are overall better than the ones on 2112 but 2112 is better than Hemispheres the song.

On Hemispheres, what guitar effect is Alex using in all of those kickass rythm riffs? It sounds to me like a touch of phaser.

I like Hemispheres, particularly Armaggedon. The bass riff is awesome.

Great album. La Villa Strangiato is an overlookd instrumental, its so awsome.
