When I first started reading this net I wrote a I love RUSH and who else does letter, too. Unfortunately, the people on this net obviously do not know talent when they see it. Many of them probably have heard of RUSH and only listened to the chart songs by them. If all I had ever heard was Tom Sawyer and New World Man I might not listen to these guys either. In fact I never listened to them in my early teenage years because the drug pushers were listening to them and I figured they were like Iron Maiden or Ozzy Ozbourne. My brother is a piano major at West Chester University and a few years back he wrote a paper for a theory class with the subject being "Red Barchetta". After readin this paper I had to listen to the song to see what he was talking about, so I bought the tape. Now I have every recording they ever did (except a mini-lp with a couple Signal cuts on the front and an interview on the back, but I can't find that anywhere) and they are about all I listen to. They are a very intelligent band and Geddy and Neil are definetly the greatest at their instruments(Alex is underrated also). So anyway, they are in the studio right now working on album no. 13 and I can't wait. I am not sure when the next concert series starts but I will surely let you and everyone else know when I find out. I have requested tapes from the net too, but I have never gotten an answer. If you find or have some concert tapes or studio tapes other than the major twelve, please tell me and I could pay you for a Maxell so that you may copy away. That would be deeply appreciated. Wasn't the Grace Under Pressure tour great with the new light and video show!! Well, keep in touch and keep the RUSH tunes rolling!! jeff(allred@amsaa)
