This is the truth. I am sorry to hear this. Off to listen to Yes today.

Teams are weird. So are fanbases. That move would not surprise me.

I am not convinced it was coke doing the sudden increase in temps, but rather a desire to play all the material they wanted and get it done in 2 hours or less. They were that quick every night it seems.

I am excited about Mathieu leaving. It helps the Chiefs. A lot.

Be prepared to at least make seasonal adjustments. This could be more noticeable if you like really low action on your guitars. Ask me how I know.

What I don't like is that it seems this was being advertised as a complete show when it isn't. At this rate, if Rush continues these reissues I will likely assume we will never get a complete show outside of AFtK.

So we have a mish-mash of both nights then?

Agreed, and I never understood the appeal of Jack White's music.

Too bad. Push Comes to Shove is the best song on the album.

Fine with me. I asked for it as a Father's Day present, so I can wait.

I seem to recall this now that it is mentioned. I also forgot he was in Some Like it Hot.

https://deadline.com/2022/04/nehemiah-persoff-dead-obituary-actor-yentl-gunsmoke-was-102-1234995573/ He was pretty good in Alfred Hitchcock Presents and the Twilight Zone. Gotta give it up to 102.

I like this choice. What I heard did nothing for me, but good for him for pursuing music in the manner he wants to.

You did not disappoint. I did not expect an answer.

Unfortunately I do not have them saved but I can think of at least 2 that have been shot from 2015 to the present. IIRC, there is also a brief moment in Time Stand Still where you can see Geddy without the glasses on.

I look forward to the answer of question 18!

IMO the 4's are easier to sell than the 8's (i.e. 7/4 versus 7/8. You can at least tap a toe to 7/4. 7/8 would lose a lot of people in a hurry. This is one reason why the section after the second chorus of The Spirit of Radio works).

IIRC, Solsbury Hill is in 7/4 and there a lot of Tool songs that have odd meters in the entire tune. I can deal with 7/4; I think that lick could have been much more interesting than what it is. The trouble with "Xanaconductor" besides Superconductor being bad is that was a very odd choice so late in the program.

I think that song is an uninteresting attempt at hard rock and odd meters.

A lot worse IMO. I like Tai Shan and Virtuality. Quite a bit. One tune I have yet to see mentioned here for all-time worst Rush tunes: Face Up. It starts off with a fantastic intro and then left turns somewhere that I do not like. Face Up may be the worst Rush song ever for me. Trouble is, about half of that album is bad.

I suspect Zelensky has bigger problems/concerns/desires than wondering if he is invited to the Oscars.

Agreed. I also do not think there is enough evidence to say this is a knock on Phil Collins.

I saw him in August. I am glad I did.

I am with a noted Rush collector on this topic. I think the trouble started in 1987 and didn't sort itself out for about 10 years.
