In the ATWAS album, on "In the End", second verse, Geddy sings: "And I can feel--Whatcha feel....It just "t-a-k-e-s" (he should have said "m-a-k-e-s") you stronger" Listen closely and you'll catch it...Sorry Geddy, but I KNOW you heard it too! hahaha .....but ...

They HAVE to tour again..they JUST STARTED acoustic stuff, so there's unopened doors there...one song like "resist" just isn't gonna cut it with die-hard fans....

I have Barbados postcards Alex signed for me (and one for my sis...she'd have mauled me if I didn't) in 1979, when I literally walked into him and his (first) wife on the street in Bridgetown, Barbados. I was on liberty from my ship in the US Navy, as it was a port-of-call. And to be truthful, we st...

1. Warner Theater, Wash. DC, 1976 (THAT'S RIGHT...I said 1976!)
2,000 people and it was SRO...My life was changed FOREVER...
2. Chicago Stadium, 1979.....
3. Baltimore Arena, 1980.....
4. Nissan Pavilion, Manassas VA, July 2003

How's THAT for longetivity! hahaha

I agree with you to an extent.....They shoulda had more multi-angle-camera songs featured...I mean, how else are we (wannbe's) gonna copy Alex's technique? huh? what? hahaha

Peace out,

The dragon was SO cool.....What they DIDN'T show in RIR was, when I saw them in VA for "Vapor Trails", they show a shorty of the dragon flaming up a blunt....Can't remember what song it was, but it was awesome...Anybody else see that? And NO, I wasn't doing the 4:20 thing! hahaha Peace out...

It had to have been the Syrinx, or some heavy in the "Solar Federation".

And, for the record, the spoken word was: "Attention, All Planets of the Solar Federation..WE have assumed control..."

I've been pondering that same question for years! Good one!

Rock on,

Hey WHU, Doesn't sound like complaining to me....Actually, you have a good point. But you have to understand, they have been together for 20-plus years(not including Rutsey), and that's the key here...Neil will always be the odd-man-out, and if I were gigging with those guys that long, I would DEFIN...

Hey Soup..That's SWEET!!! I'd have given anything to be there.....you wouldn't BELIEVE the beatdowns I get here in VA for being a Colts fan....Still lots of folks here with bad tastes in their mouths when they left Baltimore in '84(in the middle of the night in a January snowstorm hahah), but I stuc...

Good luck to all running the 30th Marine Corps Marathon in Washington D.C. this Sunday!

Thanks All....Sorry so long getting back....Glad to see Peyton and Marvin break Young and Rice's pass completion record.....I doubt this one will ever be broken...GO HORSE!

Yeah, but Alex SURE makes a convincing solo! It's gotta be close to the original...Love those platform shoes too...hahaha Ahhh....those were the days.... Peace! Oh yeah MK....Watch out for them thar' COLTS hahahaha I'm a RABID Colts fan too....But NE's gonna be there for the fight..I can damn near S...

Alex, if you see this.....I'm 45, a fan since 1974, met you in Barbados in 1979 (or '80...geez..now my memory's shot too), a novice guitarist, and I'm attempting to play La Villa Strangiato for the first time....note for note, it's mezmerizing to hear when played on guitar, so I now know why you gri...

I'm licking my chops here....Can't wait!

Hi MK....Hey, in the "Anthem" video in Rush in Rio, are they lip-synching? I know most everyone did it at the time...no big deal there...just wonderin'...Have you seen it?

Thanks y'all...you saved me hours of aimless wandering...Although, how could it NOT be fun? The whole DVD is awesome... Hey, what are the figures on top of Alex's amps (besides Mr. Potato Head)...Are they ALL MPH's? Didn't notice....too busy watching Alex's technique...He just gets better with age.....
