| ____________________________________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 12:02am - ArrowHead Logged In .... Or NOT! ""] Tickets are $90 each. I'm saving it for when Deftones, Alice in Chains, and Mastodon play there in september for $45 a pop. |

| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 8:11am - arilliusbm ""] I'd rather see Tull this summer. After a while, Geddy's vocals would make me want to cut my ears off. |
| _______________________________ [Jun 10,2010 9:01am - boxxy ""] jim you gonna go? I'd like to. |

| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 9:53am - arilliusbm ""] go to rush? no thx. 90 bucks? No thx. 2010? No thx. 1978? Yes plz |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 9:56am - arktouros ""] his live vocals are so bad now. |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:00am - arilliusbm ""] I'd imagine Jethro Tull would be way more enjoyable live at this point. Ian Anderson > Rush |

| _____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:31am - arilliusbm ""] Rush has been going downhill for 30 years, Kenny Boy. Oh wait, they've been downhill the whole time. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:37am - DreadKill ""] rush still makes great music and puts on a great show! |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:39am - arilliusbm ""] Oh wait, it's moving pictures??not bad. At least it ain't the horrible stuff that makes up 75% of their catalogue |

I have the 30th anniversary tour DVD and I wasn't pleased...but that's all I'm going by with that statement so I take it back. I fucking love Rush and they're the reason I bought a drumset way back. I don't like their albums after Test For Echo and the late 80's and on is all hit or miss... but aril doesn't know what he's talking about. |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:46am - arktouros ""] I've watched so many Neil Peart videos I'm kinda burnt out on the band. Haven't really listened to em in years. Farewell to Kings and Moving Pictures are all win though. |
| _____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:49am - arilliusbm ""] sure I do. not huge on rush post 81. I just love shitting on rush fans because everyone thinks they're the greatest band of all time. In fact, most rushettes I've talked to over the years feel threatened when someone dislikes something rush has done. I've got news for you: Alex lifeson's a docuhbag and Neil peart should have died with his family |
| ____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 10:54am - arktouros ""] hahahahahahaha. half their catalog really is terrible. even within their albums you get 2 or 3 awesome songs and the rest is unlistenable. |

| _____________________________________ [Jun 10,2010 11:09am - arilliusbm ""] nah, I mean here's my real take on rush. I believe i've stated it in th past on this board, as with most of my retarded opinions. Rush started out as a Led Zep worship band. Which isn't a bad thing; thr song Working Man from their first album is awesome by every regard. when Neil joined the band, he reshaped music. his drumming is extremely creative, and he pushed the band towards a new direction. their musicianship and composition was always top notch, but in my opinion they started to decline after moving pictures. understandably so, a band must evolve.I've never been a big fan of Geddy's vocals, and also feel Rush's lyrics are extremely cheesy at times. I'm a huge fan of prog music in general, but I feel that Rush almost gets too much credit from certain people. I know one should avoid generalizations, but most avid Rush fans are annoying as fuck. They're either cocky douchebags that want to suck the sperm out of Neil Peart's penis, or musicians who feel they're better than everyone because Rush opened their eyes to prog music and odd time signatures. I'm not saying all Rush fans are like this by any means, but generally speaking their fan base disgusts me. There are people that listen to NOTHING but Rush. As I said above, they feel threatened by any critique of the band. Don't get me wrong, Rush is a great band and shaped rock and prog music for the ages. But they lack (in most of their mid to late catalogue) certain things in the music, most importantly emotion and sincerity. Too much flash and not enough substance. |
