Greatest 3 piece ever is Cream, followed by Double Trouble (Stevie Ray Vaughan) then Rush.

And of course the Jimi Hendrix Experience.

I’ve loved Rush for years. I’m not a dungeons and dragons or sci-fi nerd by a long shot. Please stop with this idiotic stereotyping.

So are they finally going to be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame? The greatest Canadian band of all time, and probably the greatest prog rock band ever. They’re way overdue.

I’m not a huge Rush fan, but they’re definitely overdue for getting into the hall of fame. A good band nonetheless.

Why does RS keep saying nerd/sci-fi rock in their articles? Makes no sense.

Nice way to endorse a band that gets little to no props anyways with the nerdy prog statement. Hopefully you’ll also start using the term whiny emo whenever appropriate…
Gimmicks with less talent have made their way into the Rock Hall of Fame, so why not include great musicians who have put out a solid body of work for over 30 years?

“Why does RS keep saying nerd/sci-fi rock in their articles? Makes no sense.”

They have a song called “By-Tor and the Snow Dog,” for God’s sake. Calling them a nerdy progressive rock band is not a bad thing. Put aside your 18-sided die and pop a chill pill. It’s OK, I like them too. I have a game we can play. It’s called “Count the Number of Women at a RUSH Concert.” Very similar to “Where’s Waldo?”

RUSH rules. No better lead bass player or rock drummer anywhere.

What was the deal with those laundry machines behind them on stage? Were they saving time by doing their laundry while playing a gig?

The Washer and Dryer is Geddy’s way of “evening out” the stage. He thinks Alex’s amps are too heavy or big compared to his side. So he put them there. They have been replaced on S&A with “Henhouse” rotiserry ovens this past tour. Just a joke really, but pretty funny when the chef comes out and bastes (sp?) the chickens mid song.
