x1yyz Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Godsmack is much better than Nickelback. it's not even a contest. Yup. I've got a couple Godsmack albums, but they're from 14+ years ago. I will always have zero Nickelback albums. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Why would Genesis be playing a high school gym at that point? Rush, was of course, but Genesis? it's a state college, and what little genesis footage I've seen from this time period had them playing in a small/medium venue.

Geddy saw them in Toronto the previous year, opening for some other guy. Genesis was so impressive to young Geddy, he didn't even stick around for the main act. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagegrace26 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 http://www.2112.net/...731201story.htm as I suspected, it's not our rushThey would know.... They could be lying... or too much pot and lsd Honestly, its possible. Buffalo is very close to Toronto, maybe they didnt even know they were in the states Didn't Neil think The Camera Eye had never been played before the Time Machine tour? Their memories aren't perfect especially considering the amount of shows they've done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their memories aren't perfect especially considering the amount of shows they've done. oh, true. but still, I think opening for one of your biggest influences is more memorable than whether or not you've played a song of yours you didn't like for most of your career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powderfinger Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) This is strange. Despite assertions to the contrary, I'm having a difficult time believing this wasn't our Rush. Buffalo is close to Toronto—it would not have been surprising to see Rush jump over the border for this show. Moreover, I don't buy the Mahogany Rush theory. Their first album had already been out for a year, and had charted in the U.S. Why would promoters trim the "Mahogany" from their moniker? And it certainly could not have been Tom Rush, an already popular and respected folk singer who would not have opened for an esoteric progressive rock group from England. And finally, I simply don't buy that there was simply another band named Rush that could have opened for Genesis in Buffalo during that time. Our Rush would have been out trying to promote their "Not Fade Away" single, no? Is it possible that Rush was booked to play, but for whatever reason had to back out after tickets were already printed?

savagegrace26 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 (edited) which you are, for having participated in a 20-page discussion about what decade permanent waves belongs to. Why is that? Absolutely no different than anything else that is discussed around here and the discussion evolved into other areas, it wasn't just about the thread topic. Being an idiot is telling someone who posted a setlist of a Genesis show (and provided a link) that the songs listed are Genesis songs....
