    I knew that for some time but I just never wanted to be a spoiler before it was officially announced. I STILL hope they never get in it's far MORE interesting conversation with my favorite rock band not in THAT HOF.

    Would you like to hear strings...well here's some RUSH done by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.....

    Rush fans will be able to hear the band's classics in a whole new way with the November 13th release of The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Plays The Music Of Rush, which includes special guest spots from members of Iron Maiden and Marillion. And fans can check out "2112 Overture" right now.

    Rush was inducted into the Hollywood Rock Walk outside of Guitar Center in Los Angeles earlier today (November 20) and the band talked about the induction and got their hands dirty.

    I completely understand, once on the VT Tour I didn't go because we had the Beltway Sniper all over the DC Metro area. Plus my daughter and I chose not to go to that Baltimore show because the next day we were off to London for 2 weeks. That was going to be her first Rush show, she was 6 then and now she's seen 5 shows. She will be going with me to the Sunrise/Fort Lauderdale show. She has always wanted to play drums, she admires
    The Professor but at such a young age I just couldn't take the noise back then.

    Even though Alex Trebeck mis pronounced Neil's name the correct answer was given.

    I am sitting out this tour (not happy about it) but the setlist they are touring on SUCKS.. IMO .

    I am ok with including a good number of new songs in the set but the WHOLE ALBUM?

    Plus the "perimeter" songs included do nothing for me..

    I'm as hard core as the next RUSH FAN BUT how about breaking out:
    JACOBS LADDER?

    Bring back XANADU and BY-tor!

    How about "Between the Moon and the Sun" or "CUT TO THE CHASE"?

    Give is more than a one show "ENTRE NOUS"??

    Sadly the best thing about the current tour is (literally) the last song:
    Grand Finale from 2112.
    That's the "kick ass" stuff they need more of throughout the whole set..

    Sorry you don't seem to get what they are doing this tour.
