Oh YESSSS..:-) Also one of my fave bands of all time. I might argue a bit that Geddy Lee is the numero-uno bass player, but Squire is amazing and no doubt about that! Geddy is the reason I picked up the bass though...'cause he has had my heart since I was about 10 year's old, when "Permanent Waves" came out. I've been to every single concert since, and saw Rush at the 15,000 + packed Molson Ampitheater in Toronto last summer. Neil Peart's drum solo...sorry but NOBODY can even come near that..period. :-) Go check out his new website at www.neilpeart.net and www.rush.com> > And speaking of vintage, there was a song around the same time and I draw a blank as to who did it. The song was DOA and there were sounds of an ambulance in it. DOA is a heck of a thing to google on, too. Any ideas?
