Just thought I'd mention this as it always strikes me as funny how Rush really seems to infiltrate the mainstream these days.

 

At the Blue Man Group show, they have these 3 gigantic "GiPad" visuals, one of which flashes comic summaries of classic works from Shakespeare to Melville to Mark Twain. For Tom Sawyer, the synopsis went something like this: "Boy floats in a raft up the Mississippi river to Canada, join rock band Rush and writes songs about Ayn Rand novels". Pretty funny.

 

On a side node, the show was very good, it would be particularly appreciated by percussionists, light technicians and visual artists. I can see from the musicianship in the show that these guys are no strangers to Neil.

I would live to see them live. I did see a DVD of theirs once and went and bought one of their CDs. Just brilliant.

"Modern day warrior named Tom Sawyer! He floated down a river on a raft with a black guy! Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo..."

 

"I AM GEDDY LEE AND I WILL SING WHATEVER LYRICS I WANT!"
