TheGhostRider Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Not sure when the website went down but I checked today and the domain expired and everything on it is gone too. Thankfully the website was archived on the Wayback Machine but it's still sad to see it go. I saw some really neat stuff on there when I found the website on my own. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the site where they boosted the gain on the fadeouts of songs so you could hear everything the band were playing? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they also posted rare and unreleased audio of things that have never been really seen anywhere else. Like the Unused ending for Tom Sawyer and the music played at the end of shows during the Exit Stage Left Tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhyta Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Perhaps it is more that the Rush world is getting smaller or sadly something could have happened to the person managing it. It sounded like a cool collection of stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounded like a cool collection of stuff. I met him once. 2007 I think it was. Really nice guy. I have no idea what's up. -----------------That's what I was getting at - the Rush world is getting smaller. There's no denying the loyalty of the fan base - myself included. The band was (is?) a major component of peoples lives in many different ways. I'm just saying that despite that fan loyalty, a defunct Rock band does start to slip into the past at some point. People and entities lose interest over time. It's inevitable. I draw comparison to Sinatra. Elvis, or The Beatles. Similar things will happen with Rush 'awareness' over time.

Yeah… Back in the day, he was on Rush forums frequently (as was I). If I’m not mistaken, he was the first to post the Power Windows demo.
