QUOTE (Scottishdood @ Jul 9 2012, 04:26 PM) I predict with the utmost confidence that godeater2112 and myself will be at the bar during Faithlesss!!! I hope you are right about the bar thing but wrong about them playing Faithless! I hate to poop on Rush on a fan board but I'm not super crazy about that song.

QUOTE (Apollo @ Jul 9 2012, 04:21 PM) My prediction is that this tour will not have comedy (or Rush's attempts thereof) intro/outro videos at all, instead they will have a cool clockworky type intro video and no outro video. I hope you are right! I am tired of the corny not-that-funny stuff.

QUOTE (GeminiRising79 @ Jul 9 2012, 04:19 PM) I've only heard the lo-res youtube version of CA, and I refuse to purchase the CD based on my initial reaction of it. If anyone would be willing to point me to a good quality recording, I will give a good listen and see if it "blooms" after a week. If I do see some early glimmers and it grows on me, like so many of you insist, I will buy the CD. If not, I will give an in-depth critique of each song, and the album as a whole. Thanks, Kurt *shakes his head* Glue yourself to some radio station then I guess cheapskate! Nobody here is going to point you to an illegal stream or anything and to my knowledge online music services such as rd.io and Spotify do not have it, Rush does not want to be on those "all you can eat" services, although their old stuff is there. You've been coming here for years, seem to have weekly homoerotic thoughts about the band members and yet you won't chuck $12 to hear the album? Stuff it buddy!

QUOTE (Scottishdood @ Jul 8 2012, 05:16 PM) Personally I think it's shit..and all u ooh you can't say it's that and and can't say it's this and who hasn't ripped off sabbath or purple merchants should just grow some and say its crap! Sick of people sittin on the fence!! And how the feck is it a glimpse of what Rush would have sounded like if they were different?? Does that mean Depeche Mode may have sounded like Rush at some point! Stop talkin bollox n here people..don't get your heads too far up your own arses! Haha! Solid rant! Here here!

QUOTE (Gompers @ Jul 4 2012, 08:17 PM) Link Listen to the song "We Pay the Price". I didn't find credits, but I think this is a big ripoff. These are some pretty amusing / terrible songs. Obviously slathered in Rush references as we've been discussing, but the opening to this track is definite "Between Sun & Moon" also.

Then you clearly have no clue what Heavy Metal is Hahaha, exactly what I was thinking. Like if you are going to cite a band like "Korn" as "metal" you really aren't setting up your case very well!

It still need to be all wrapped up like a giant sausage, and then smoked/BBQed for several hours. These are the true culinary definition of beauty and I highly recommend making your own not as hard as it may seem from the directions: OMG BACON BOMB!

I had a lot of bacon this weekend and I fully realize the importance of maintaining fresh breath at the office. Luckily I have some of this, a gift from a very cool co-worker. http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s294/Godeater2112/mmmmmbacon.jpg

QUOTE (metaldad @ Jul 9 2012, 09:15 AM) Shame this guy is still in jail. All anyone has to do is watch the clip on You-Tube to know he did nothing wrong. Nice country I love the way they ambushed him. Never brought any initial charges just waited until they eventually came back to the country and *WHAM* gotcha at the airport f**ker! Goes without saying they'll never play that POS country again, too bad for the fans. This is a terrible string of luck I am on. Was supposed to see The Offspring at a festival this week, they cancelled without reason. Going to see a metal festival first week of August and so far: - Lamb of God is not looking promising thanks to this bullshit - High on Fire (who I really wanted to see) cancelled because the lead singer is in rehab - IWRESTLEDABEARONCE looks like their lead singer is preggers, so they are looking at replacing her with some other random singer for the interim. They say things happen in threes, I am already up to four! Frig! At least Maiden showed up on Caturday.

I'm off to see my show in Ottawa tonight. I've seen them several times and ALWAYS enjoy such a great show but I must admit I am especially pumped up for tonight based on all of your rave reviews for this tour.

My current wife, girlfriend at the time HATED Rush, I mean just LOATHED it... but she was an exceptionally sweet person... packed a terrific arse and all that... Wouldn't have brought this up had this topic not come up but... this link might help you guys out a LOT, just skip step #1: link

First off I would never try to 'force' my wife into liking something just because I enjoy it. Nothing wrong with different tastes etc. That being said, unless she was joking around, it doesn't sound to me like your wife is very respectful of the things you enjoy. How would she feel if she was watching her favorite TV show or something and you asked her "How you you stand watching this crap?" Same sort of respect-disconnect?

All three of those other (amazing) songs added together don't even touch the majesty of The Garden. Cool poll!

When has Rush ever f**ked up elements of their live shows? This is going to absolutely KICK ASS!

QUOTE (treeduck @ Jul 4 2012, 05:08 PM) Isn't this like having a I love Madonna's Arse thread on a Madonna forum... It does make more sense however than let's say in a Bon Jovi forum for a member to say Johhny's vocals now suck, and to record themselves singing the vocals 'better' and posting them on the forum and expecting a positive reaction!

For Snakes and Arrows, outside of the instrumentals and a couple of other tracks, overall I didn't like it much at all. Clockwork Angels?! I absolutely love it, my favorite new album since becoming a fan! We got a few heavy, sharp, terrific songs in the likes of Headlong Flight and Caravan, where I admittedly like the album versions far more than the original singles... We have some really earnest, simple heartfelt songs like Halo Effect which is just such a wonderful throwback type song and then THE GARDEN which is an absolute masterpiece, it might be the most emotionally intense song I have ever heard by any band and I have terribly diverse taste in music... In between we have some brilliant punchy rock songs such as the title track, The Anarchist and BU2B that are really great fresh sounding high energy tracks, very ambient in many respects and so quintessentially Rush. Some other tracks here haven't grown on me quite as much yet but it's still early. Yet it is still very evident that there is nothing close to a bad track on this album, something I wouldn't say has occurred since Hold Your Fire. At this stage of their career I am amazed they managed something so sublime, so fresh, so high energy, interlaced by a really interesting concept and still be such fantastic typical Rush! Very very happy with this album, exceeded all my expectations and I can't wait to see a lot of it live!
