    Nope. No rule. Only beer snobs whine about it.

      Which is it - beer or whine?
      It's not going to suck itself...

        I like them both better than RUSH.
        Rock! Shock! Pop!

          RUSH goes well with both.

          Another endless day
          Silhouettes of grey
          Another glass of wine
          Drink with eyes that shine
          To days without that chill at morning
          Nights time out of mind
          Chorus
          Draw another goblet
          From the cask of '43
          Crimson misty memory
          Hazy glimpse of me
          Give me back my wonder
          I've something more to give
          I guess it doesn't matter
          There's not much more to live
          Another foggy dawn
          The mountain almost gone
          Another doubtful fear
          The road is not so clear
          My soul grows ever weary
          And the end is ever near

            I have been quite enjoying my "Moving Pictures" Blu-ray in lovely lossless surround.

            Ian - do you at least like the instrumentals?

              I'm kind of indifferent to them. I have respect for Rush as talented musicians and can appreciate the complexity of their playing but sometimes they get a little too 'oodly' sounding for me.

                I just listened to Subdivisions and this vid hit my memory. I'm sure all you Geddy haters will like it. It's really great and an awesome use of a looping pedal. I know it's a few years old, but...



                Hey, Tommy Shaw, I'll see you on August 28th!!

                    HAHA!

                    "Canadian rock icons Rush have issued a cease and desist letter against notorious rich wing demagogue Rush Limbaugh. While radio programs are usually allowed to use music without seeking specific permission, the band argues that Limbaugh's use of the music is for "political purposes" which is not covered by the blanket license afforded to broadcasters. The band issued a letter including this:

                    The use of Rush's music in this way is an infringement of Rush's copyrights and trademarks. The public performance of Rush's music is not licensed for political purposes and any such use is in breach of public performance licenses and constitutes copyright infringement. In addition, the use of Rush's music in this manner implies an endorsement of the views expressed and products advertised on the show, and is in breach of not only copyright and trademark rights, but also, of section 51 of the New York Civil Rights Law. Accordingly, we hereby demand that you immediately stop all use of Rush's music and confirm that you will do so."

                        Agreed! Rush are asshats.

                        To once again quote a musician friend of mine (he was talking about Eddie Van Halen, but it fits for Rush too):

                        "They're great musicians with shitty taste in music".

                        Completely sums them up for me. Even the recent documentary couldn't warm me up to their music.

                        I tried, I really did.

                            Their shows are great. Glad to see more footage. Neil looks like Tom Hanks in Green Mile. Did he have a moustache in that?
                            Geddy wore a RASH shirt last go 'round.

                              Here's the third track they've released off of their forthcoming album.


                              Here are the other two:

                                Tickets for the 10/24 show went on sale today. We got some rad floor seats. I'll be in the middle of a sea of dragon t-shirts and ponytails.
