That's my boy Romo. Named after Tony Romo by my son-in-law who had him first.

Thanks and I love the Isaac Asimov quote. I've seen this clip on YouTube but I guess I didn't let it play long enough

Thanks. This might be very unpopular but I'll add Tom Sawyer to the list. Too much synth and just an odd song that sounds like it was spun off just for the radio. That's probably part of it too..way too overplayed for my taste.

Automatically I'd say least favorite is Superconductor. It just sounds too much like any other pop-rock song. Even the key change is expected and overdone. The lyrics are alright at best. I'd have to think about it to round out the list

I watch them regularly and so far they've reviewed Working Man, YYZ and Spirit of the Radio. With YYZ they kept waiting for the lyrics to start so they could analyze them. They finally checked to see if it was just music and felt a little foolish when they found out it was. My favorite review by them so far is "I can still make Cheyenne" by George Strait. Their reaction was great

This is my first post so forgive me if this has been covered. I remember seeing a video of an adult Alex watching his younger self on Come On Children explaining to his parents that he didn't see a reason to stay in school since he was going to be a rock star. I loved the expression on adult Alex's face and wanted to show it to someone but can't find it again. Rush is my favorite band and they were my first concert ever on the Power Windows tour. Unfortunately that was also the only time I got to see them. I tried again in the summer of 1992 but my mom wouldn't let me skip my high school graduation ceremony to go see them. My older brothers got to go but they had to hang around long enough to see me walk across the stage. My favorite album is Grace Under Pressure even though I'm not a fan of the synth stage.
