By-Tor.com Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Rush is currently going up against Aerosmith in the 'Sweet 16' round on Buffalo's 97 Rock.... http://www.97rock.com/misc/bandness/vote1.html If they win this, tomorrow they will face Bob Seger (who defeated Zeppelin yesterday). Go vote. Vote often (it will allow you to vote about once every ten or so minutes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Buffalo is a huge Rush town. But how will our boys defeat a juggernaut like *cough* Bob Seger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor.com Posted March 31, 2005 Author Share Posted March 31, 2005 Well, there are some out there who say that Rush fans had a hand in the Seger vs Zeppelin voting since we didn't want to go up against Zeppelin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Porschetta Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 The only band that should beat Zeppelin is Rush. Maybe people are catching on to the fact that Rush are the three most talented musicians right now, and 30 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"There are some out there........" ? Dude, do you work for the radio station, tally the votes or what? One would not think a local battle of the bands gig would receive that much press or attention....Just wondering about your perspective, that's all. Let me clarify my position on this............... friggin' ROCKS! Seger, you're going down! Woo...Woo!..... Schro's comment on the Aerosmith angle left me gasping for air................from laughing! Still, one has to wonder......I think the same forces that were at work foiling Aerosmith's chances may be Rush's best ally in a head to head with Bob Seger. All in all, this battle for supremacy will be require much in the form of legitimacy. There will be much litigation followed by claims of voter tampering, denied access(Aerosmith voter's), ballot box stuffing all leading to the decision being taken out of the hands of the voters. I must save you all the hassle and heartache you are headed for, AMERICA! Tally the votes any way you want.....EVERYBODY KNOWS........ IS THE BADDEST OF ALL, THE BEST ROCK BAND.....PERIOD !! Glad to clear that up..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't work for the radio station, but I do know Rush is receiving attention in this poll beyond the Buffalo area that this radio station represents. I do know that Rush would have probaly lost to Black Sabbath in the first round if the word was not put out on the 'Net. Rush only had a third of the vote in that round before I posted the link to the voting on my site and on CP. And I know that some have expressed interest in knocking off bands like Zeppelin before Rush had to face them. I do not know if any action was taken in that matter, but with what has been said to me, and when I see Seger knock off Zeppelin, I have my suspicions.

thetrees Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Hey i live in the St. Louis area and the radio station KSHE 95 is doing almost the same thing. im not sure at the moment what the status is on the boys other than they had to go up against metalica at some point, but i do know this for a fact: RUSH WON LAST YEAR!! i thought that was pretty justified, they better win every year (they deserve to)!
