Gilbertk Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I listened to the new album for 2 weeks, OD'd on Rush and then barely listened to them at all. Now that opening day is here... I'm back to non-stop Rush! How does it work for everyone else? Do you binge on Rush from tour announcement until the show(s)? Do you listen to Rush less before the show? Or does nothing change at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakota2112 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Being completely immersed in the Rush zone prior to a show is absolutely critical for me. My show is about a week away, and I am giving heavy rotation to most of the Rush catalog, exclusively, at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

girlfriend in a coma Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) I'm really just immersing myself in CA because I know they will be playing a ton of it. 4.5 hours to go.

hughes&kettner Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 what else would you listen to besides ??????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djfunkywill Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 After Roll the Bones I went away to college. I pretty much stopped listening. Two years ago a neighbor reintroduced me and I've been immersed ever since. I would guess 75% or more of the music I've played in my daily two hours in the car has been RUSH. At age 40 I'm appreciating RUSH way more than I did when I was 20. I can listen to their stuff over and over. Everytime I listen I discover something new. So back to the question... I've been immersed pretty heavily for a couple of years. The new album hasn't changed the amount that I listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjtull Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 If you mean in general: I go through stages where I will listen to a lot of RUSH but I almost always listen to at least "some" RUSH every week. If you're talking about during tour time: I catch the RUSH bug and go on marathons of listening to nothing but RUSH...like today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljr869 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I always binge on an artist for a few weeks before seeing them. I think it's natural. When I was a kid I got into RUSH during Permanent Waves and stayed with them until Signals, like many I'm sure. I OD'd on Subdivisions and then set them aside for quite a while. Then one day in the record shop at UCSD I came across A Show of Hands and got re-hooked. Been back ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
