Thanks for the info S4. The second concert I ever saw was Rush opening up for Kiss. Both were touring for their second albums and it was a hell of a show. I was in the second row and got "blood" spit all over me. Seeing how I was about 14 I loved it.
I have seen Rush 5 times now and I still like them quite a bit. However, I must say that their last album was something of a disappointment. Hopefully this one will be much better.
The only thing I don't like about some of their later albums is that they have a tin can sound. Maybe it was the way it was mixed, but it seemed to me that they put too much emphasis on the high end and not enough on bass.
They always had a high tech sound, but I'd like to see them actualy produce something that sounds like it was done with real instruments sort of like one of their old songs:"The Trees". It would be great if they did some accoustic stuff, too.
Oh well, it's great to see that they are still together as a band.
but they still sounded good.
