djflex Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I am just curious... By far i have listened to rush more than any of my other favorites. Although sometimes i do take a short break from them, it is never really too long. Many bands i will get into and then drop for ages. Right now i am on a short rush break, but will still sneak in an album or two. 2112 alone has received more plays than any album ive ever owned. I like a variety of music so i dont just listen to them . Im just asking for fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Teen Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I listen to Rush the most of any band by a huge margin. I have an unhealthy addiction to their music. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 At different times they have been. Now I only hear them on the radio. That may change at some point, or I may have heard enough. Time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grover Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Rush would be first and Yes a close second but I would guess Rush are about 10% of my listening over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbobby10 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 They are, but for the past month i stopped listening to them, i will wait another month or 2 before i start to again, so it will be like a "new" beginning with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamrahai Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I don't listen to my Rush cds or vinyl much these days. Between my live recordings and local radio I get my fill. In Canada we have Canadian content rules and I hear at least a dozen Rush songs a day when the radio is on at work. Still more Rush than anything else though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last run i went through all the live albums. Then down the road i may listen to the classics again, then later after a break the synth era stuff etc. Before a tour i used to go through the entire discography. Then a break after the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkingAllTheTime Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Without question, yes. But often in waves depending upon my genre mood. Lately I have been playing the hell out of the Bottle Rockets. But various Rush stuff is always there and I click over to it regularly enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Cub Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Overall, yes. Over the last couple months, no. Edited January 13, 2016 by BowlCity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil1972 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I took a two month break before the R40 DVD came out. Then it was on again to Rush Rush Rush. But I tend to take periodic breaks from certain bands and rotate others in... Amongst my favorite bands, Rush gets heavy rotation. The Beatles are also heavy on my playlist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamrahai Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 If Canadian artists had to compete equally with US and UK music for airplay it would be pretty hard to make it I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) Rush is definitely in that top echelon of music that I can listen to anywhere, anytime .. and when I do, it is always full albums, or even over the span of certain eras . . . I've been going thru a big Rush phase since 1977, and it has not let up one bit . . Edited January 13, 2016 by Lucas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
