There is a pretty nice debate going on about it. Personally, I think that set is incredible, and I'd easily give up programming to own it No offense, of course.

Anyway, T-Minus 4.5 hours until I get to see Rush live ^_^ I want to get my drumsticks signed by Neil, Alex and Geddy, but I doubt this will happen. Ah well, I'll have plenty of pictures for anyone who cares.

I'd run down the street naked, and then I might take drums. But I'd probably just take a leak instead.

Heh, yeah, maybe, but insane posts are usually funny.

Anyway, see those symbols on the drums (not cymbals...)? They represent Rush albums, like the post says.

The topic starter in that link wonders what the CD "Grace Under Pressure" could be represented by, I think it would be a person staring a sinking ship, since that is what the album cover is. Or it could be a prisoner reaching to a flower through a barbed wire fence (since that was going to be the original cover).

Grace Under Pressure is a scary album, talks about the holocaust and nuclear wars. But it is one of the best Rush CDs I own ^_^

Simply incredible. It was an amazing show. The songs, the videos, the lights (the lights were something to be amazed at... hopefully the pictures I will be linking to prove this)... A lot of people said it was one of, if not the best Rush concert ever.

I'm a bad boy Cameras werent allowed, but I got mine in... I have 9 floppy disks worth of images (with around 15-20 pictures on each). I'll have the pics uploaded somewhere soon, probobly on a freewebs site.

If you live in the UK (which a lot of you do) or Germany, I'd definitely suggest going to see this tour.
