Thanks so much to everyone for your concern,and kind words.It means alot.

Hey guys, I don''t really post alot especially lately.My name is Robert.I live in Atlanta,Georgia,and I am dying from inoperable pancreatic cancer.The Doctor says I only have 3 to 6 months left to live.I'm 50 years old,and have had 5 children(2 of which have autism)They are all adults now.I also have 5 grandchildren.My wife of 33 years is totally disabled due to an accident in 2003.I have made all neccessary arrangements,and have adequate life insurance I believe.I've worked hard all of my life,and taken care of my resposibilities.It's been a good life.If I had one wish before I go it would be to see Rush up close.These VIP packages they offer nowdays would have been fantastic.Never have been able to afford anything like that,and now I would actually need 2 because I'm not supposed to drive anymore,and I get tired very easily.That's a helluva lot of money.In light of everything it seems kinda silly now but anyway just feeling down today.Thanks for letting me vent,and y'all take care.

Does this rerelease contain the original tri-fold album cover?Anyone know?

Just wondering,there used to be a gentleman on TRC that used to do a thread where he would analize lyrics to Rush's songs upon suggestion.The guy was brilliant! If your on here dude I wish you would start that on TRF. Let your presence be known!

First,I have been watching my R40 box set for weeks.I mean I've been wearing them out! Anyway,I was watching S&A this morning(got to hear three of my favorite songs yet again,see yesterdays post lol!) I noticed that on Digital Man Geddy's bass seems to be lower in the mix than it was on Signals.Anyone else think so? That's one of my favorite songs on Signals,and that's what I like most about it. Hell,the bass drives that song!

If there is a 2015 tour I hope the powers that be are listening.I hope they strike Spirit Of Radio,Tom Sawyer,and Subdivisions from the setlist.These songs received so much airplay in my area it wouldn't bother me if I never heard them again.They can discontinue 2112,and Working Man too for that matter.Please keep Limelight,and Freewill though which they didn't play last tour.I would like to hear Counterparts in total personally.Hold Your Fire,or Test For Echo running close seconds.Also,I'd love to hear Kid Gloves,or Losing It.Lastly I wish Mr.Peart would quit it with the electronic drums,and that damn big band section of his solo.Anyway,like I said just voicing my opnions,so shoot me.

I just hope Atlantic will follow suit.,especially the albums that were never released on vinyl at all Counterparts,Roll The Bones,etc.

No,but this is a true story.A friend of mine,and I went to see ARS at the Georgia Tech Colisium about 1979,and we smoked a doobie right in front of a uniformed police officer.He just stared at us.I thought he was gonna ask for a hit actually.

Superconductor!

KID GLOVES PLEASE!!!

John's music makes me want to eat a bullet.Especially "Sunshine"

I feel for you,I have a 22 year old son with the same condition.

Ok I'll bite. I'm 50 years young,been a Rush fan since 1976.I am a Meat Cutter by trade.Been doing that for 30 some odd years.I'm married with 5 kids,and 5 Grandchildren.I play guitar,some bass,drums,and keys as well..I also like to draw, mostly pencil drawings.Lately I've been writing music,and tinkering with some lyrics.I plan on being a rock star when I grow up lol!!!

Honestly,when I got into Rush Geddy had that Robert Plant thing going on.Those high screeching vocals.As I've gotten older I don't much care for that earlier stuff.Geddy also seems to have trouble pulling those songs off now.I think unless they tune down or something he needs to limit the amount of 70's material he trys to sing.Just my opinion.

Hmmm,2112,Animate,and Tom Sawyer(the part following the guitar solo of course)

VIP Package for 2015 tour,and a meet.and greet!!!

Other than 2112 complete I also forgit to mention Mr Pearts solo on the Molson footage.Probably the best I've ever heard!Awesome!Before that I think the solo from Live From The Palace was my favorite for those of you who have sen it.Check em out if possible.

I'm going to say Alex.But,being a guitarist myself maybe I tend to notice his more.I don't know really.

I live in the US and they haven't even processed my order yet. I got mine 3 days after the release.I live in Georgia.

Yes

Yeah,forgot to mention 2112 complete!

I couldn't find another thread so here it goes.I purchased the DVD version so I would have the option of watching them on my pc with headphones(which I prefer)Also,I got mine from the official website so I could get the R40 Completist Disc. I must say the package is stellar.There's an essay by Martin Popoff followed by a collection of excellent photos from each tour.I won't waste time on the obvious content.The bonus disc is nearly worth the entire purchase.I really enjoyed the footage from 74.Even then the guys were great players showing genius in the making.I was also surprised at what a solid drummer John was RIP.The Molson footage from 97 is excellent as well video,and audio wise.I loved the songs from TFE.But,then again I like TFE,I could give a shit what other fans think.For those who wish to know the completist disc for the DVD version contains the rest of R30 not included on the previous DVD,Anthem 75,and three more songs from Molson 97 including; Animate,Resist,and Natural Science.I am really satisfied with the purchase as I have been watching it every free moment I've had since I got it.I'm officially in total Rush mode again.Forgive me.

Never heard of it. What's this one about? Kinda of along the found footage genre but not excatly more like an actual documentary about an old woman with Dementia.Also,kinda of along the possession theme but with a new take,nice twist.Free on Netflix.

Hell yeah! I bought their studio album collection on Amazon,and actually listened to most of it this morning shuffled of course on my pc.

The Taking Of Deborah Logan.SCARY ASS MOVIE! Happy Halloween!
