First, I want to apologize if this comes across as though I don't appreciate Rush, in fact it's quite the opposite. But I find one thing a bit strange and I feel like I should post it here: Rush's background vocals in (recent) live shows/DVDs. I mean musically, Rush is awesome, but I cringe everytime, Alex Lifeson comes up to the mic and you either hear nothing or the samples of Geddy's background vox. This leads me to believe that either
.) he (Alex Lifeson) is lip-syncing
.) the mic's not on
I mean surely, the guy must know how to sing, right? How much more awesome would Rush be if they had harmonies a la Queen???
