A new guy doesn't need this information. Let him enjoy the music first. Damn, you people go overboard. Too much info. Let him discover when he wants to. LESS IS MORE!

 

This also depends on what sort of person you are. I'm the type that loves to get to know the history and background about a band that I'm either really just getting into/like the personalities of the band's members. Although, I used to watch the old marathon runs of Behind the Music on VH-1 in the channel's heyday and got turned on to a bunch of bands through it...Just depends on the person really.

 

I'm like that too but the guy didn't ask for that information. And there's plenty of resources out there if you wants to discover more. He asked for the music not the background. This is overkill and a surefire way to kill a first date. I don't want to know every detail about you immediately. Let's get to the action first. Mystery is more erotic initially. I don't need to know all of your baggage yet. Take off your clothes and let me feel your music first....Wait...I forgot what we were talking about... :blush:

Wait until NewRUSHfan sees what happened to his thread.

 

Oh yeah, NewRUSHfan, you should be warned that certain people here, of whom I may or may not be one, tend to take threads completely off the rails at times.

He never came back? :laughing guy:

 

He probably saw all this fan obsession and didn't want to go down that path. Maybe it was a wise decision...

 

I think everyone was very helpful.

 

Maybe he doesn't like corn dogs.

 

Or his sense of humor isn't refined enough for TRF.

:cool:

I am 39, I am a musician, and I love hard rock. Why the hell am i just NOW realizing that this band absolutely KICKS ASS!!!!!!!!! I mean WOW!!! I saw RUSH: Live In Cleveland on VH1 and it was like an epiphany. Luckily I DVR'd it and I can NOT stop watching it now. What is the matter with me? Or should I say......what HAS BEEN the matter with me? Why did it take me this long to realize that these guys are amazing musicians? I have been missing out. But it is better late than never. Now I need someone to guide me into the world of RUSH. What CD's do I buy first? What DVD's should I buy first? I love live performances and from what I understand, and from what I have seen, this band is incredible live. So if someone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

 

If you're a guitarist, pick up Permanent Waves.

If you're a bassist, pick up Power Windows.

If you're a drummer, pick up Counterparts.

If you play something else, pick up guitar, bass, or drums.

Counterparts for a drummer? :eh:

Oh.......and are there any good tribute bands around Northern NJ?

 

Not to toot my own horn but... *toot-toot*.

 

We're not exactly northern NJ, we're in Delaware. Not a huge drive if you're interested.

A couple people here can vouch for us. :D

Before you get any CDs,you have to get a shrimp cot in which to lie down while listening. Then, make yourself some soup, and you're ready to immerse yourself in the world of Rush.

 

I am loathe to recommend any one cd as a starting point. I'd say, choose the cover that appeals to you the most, and go from there! Ha

I give it the highest honor. The disco ball award........
