Did anyone catch the Rush interview on the Colbert Report???

Unfuckingbelievable.....Man, that brought be back to 1981, those guys still kick ass!

If you did not catch the interview and following Tom Sawyer, type in Rush in Youtube to watch....

I still got goosebumps!

I saw a pic of Geddy sometime in the nineties wearing stirrup pants.

That was the end of the love affair for me.

Dear God, you scared the be-jeebus out of me. I thought you meant Rush Limbaugh! Though that would have been a good interview.

It was cool to see Rush on TV, but I think it kinda sucked that Colbert didn't let you see the entire performance. They went to a commercial right in the middle of it! I noticed Geddy's voice isn't what it used to be.

I went to see Rush in 1979, and again last year. They still play great, and both were good shows.

I saw them in 78 in Niagara Falls convention center. I believe it was the "Farewell to Kings" tour

Wow...
I saw them on 4 tours in a row through the late 80s and 90s, and even got to meet Geddy and Alex on the Roll the Bones tour...their shows were always spot-on perfect, and they had cool openers too (that's where I first saw Primus back at one of those shows)
One of my favorite cds is from the Permanent Waves tour, where they opened with 2112, then did a By-tor=>Xanadu, and threw in a Natural Science in there too...

And how about the voice of Getty Lee how did it get so high. I wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy?
