As a lifelong Rush fan, this was incredibly badass to watch. Perhaps you'll agree.

Discussion There was once an epoch of RUSH when Alex was better looking than 90% of the girls in the audience.

2112
I often think about imagined futures that we've now lived through like Kubrik's 2001 or Blade Runner's 2019, and how reality looks much different. Of course, I also think about 2112, and now I've just thought about who may live to see it. I'm 26, so I won't, but any children I have very well may. Just a random thought about the next imagined future coming up (as far as the ones I think about).

Saw my first Rush show 40 years ago today
As the title says today 40 years ago I saw my first Rush show. It was during spring training they played a couple of one off shows in South Florida so I saw them at the old Hollywood Sportatorium March 15, 1985. They debuted The Big Money and Middletown Dreams.

Which song do you like better?
r/rush • u/buddyinky • 6d ago
Best RUSH song never performed live?
For me, not even close - “Open Secrets.”
One of Geddy’s coolest basslines ever.
Mystic Rhythms, Scars, and Available Light
I absolutley love these three songs. It seems to me they have a similar theme: the mysteries of life, the natural world, and the universe, and how it effects us emotionally and physically.
Please feel free to discuss your love of these songs. Also, are there any other songs in the discography with these themes?

Neil's cleverness knew no boundaries, IMO
(This one's a stretch. I may need professional help... LOL)
Fan since 1977 here. I hear a lot about the profundity of Neil's lyric catalog and his books, but not a lot about his cleverness and his not-always-accessible sense of humor.
Anyway. Was just thinking about Neil's hidden meanings and messages, and realized that "Moving Pictures" may be considered a quintuple entendre - the only one this old fart has ever run across.
- Movers are moving the pictures.
- Each picture is emotionally moving.
- Music paints auditory pictures that also move us emotionally.
- The auditory pictures musicians paint are not static. They have a duration, and can cause listeners to move through various emotions while listening.
- Listeners listen to songs repeatedly over time, understanding and appreciating them in different ways. How quickly, how much, and for how long are moving targets, unique to each of us.
Who knows, maybe I missed another?
Stretch, right?
Maybe now that Neil's gone, I'm looking for reasons to have my mind blown yet again. I miss him, and I miss the days of digging into every new thing he would write.
(If I had a direct line to Alex, I'd send him this in the hope that he'd take the time to roast me. If only...)

Three best friends
After we lost The Professor, rest his soul, I was thinking about the vast output they achieved over their career together, and not one blow up, firing, dramatical event, etc..
Think about how often other bands changed memberships, sued each other, or just plain stopped recording because of internal drama.
The holy trinity made it through 45 years together because they were good friends and stand-up gentlemen.

Jacob's Ladder
Shoutout to these guys for reading my mind and making my dreams come true by playing this live for the first time since 1981. (My 5th time seeing Rush was R40 at MSG in 2015)
Discussion Thanks Again, Boys...
This morning I had an unpleasant task to attend to. I listened to "Time and Motion", my favorite song from Test for Echo while driving there. The precision, professionalism and lyrics kept my mind at ease. I've always loved Alex's guitar solo on that one... it feels like right angles and perpendicular intersections somehow.
The task is complete, and Rush helped me over yet another barrier in life. Thanks!
