You know they were into ayn rand at the time, right?
Anyway, I am from the Detroit area, been to Cobo, Silverdome, Pine Knob, etc.
It is lucky for me that Rush isn't as "big" as they were on Moving Pictures, I get to see them in ampitheatres with great acoustics. Actually, Neil is not doing much of anything since his wife and daughter...The new Rush album is on hold...
Neils percussion solo has been perfected, in my opinion. Just listen to the one on the newest live cd, "stages," although it has been cut for the album...
