Squire/White are only just edged out by Lee/Peart as my favourite rhythm sections ever. Fantastic musicians who blend so well together to create music that touches me like no other. Chris Squire will leave a massive hole in music, as nobody else could, or be allowed to, make music like he and the other members of Yes did. R.I.P to an amazing man.

I remember seeing a Zildjian Neil Peart ad in Modern Drummer magazine about 1980. Seeing as though i'd just started playing drums (15 yrs old) i was fascinated by his intricate setup, so i tracked down the first album of theirs i could find, which happened to be Exit...StageLeft. The rest, as they say, is history :syrinx:

gonna go with YYZ.80. Thoughts ?

This ^^

I love both tracks .... simply awesome to hear the guys have regained that 'edge' Hanging out for the album soooo badly

He flips over the 'Moving Pictures' LP and says something like 'these guys are gonna be huge' and they would be touring Aus later that year. Never happened They did become huge though! Really ?!? Is this true ??? I would never have thought old Molly would acknowledge a band like Rush, but i'm glad to hear he did A tour down here will never happen i'm afraid to say ... it'd cost them way too much to bring the whole shebang down here I'd be happy for them just to come down here for a holiday ... to see what the country is like. Maybe then they'd reconsider a tour

He truly is brilliant here. Absolutely !!!! Some of the best fills i've ever heard at the end of this song

Porcupine Tree

I haven't seen it yet but i'm pretty keen to. The trailers of it look pretty good

I love Elton Johns music ... timeless stuff

Bob Geldhof =

Led Zeppelin for me. Pink Floyd don't ad-lib at all in their gigs (i've seen them twice live) they just play stuff off the album note-for-note Now don't get me wrong, i LUV Floyd ... but i reckon LZ would be a better gig to catch

I loved it .... but thought the ending was crap

Another great Aussie band

I know i'll probably get canned for saying this ... but i LOVE the song Countdown .. .always have. It really gives you a great idea of what it would be like to actually attend a shuttle launch. Might be that it was the first Rush album i bought "as it was released" But i just find this song (and album) so captivating ... Losing It/Subdivisions/The Weapon/New World Man ... they are al ltruly great songs !!!!!

I love the song Tai Shan

Bunnies of the PlayBoy Mansion

Happy Gilmore Tin Cup ... I love golf and DO consider it a sport

Can't be real ..... Geddy wouldn't be able to get his arms around "it's" shoulders if the pic were real

Probably just Neil saying something funy before he launches into that opening fill. A great song too i might add, my favourite off that album for sure.

should be an interesting look

Bravest Face for me, although i really like Far Cry a lot too

yep, seems i'm one of the majority
