Its about 12am and i just got home from a rather chilly concert indoors in downtown London. The band lineup was as follows ( and this is as good as it gets) RUSH The progressive classic rock band had no one open for them dispite many rumours of pending artists to open. I thought this was a good thing. The show started almost right on the dot of 7:30pm with the song limelight. The rest of the evening followed like this. Set 1: Video Intro 01. Limelight 02. Digital Man 03. Entre Nous 04. Mission 05. Freewill 06. The Main Monkey Business 07. The Larger Bowl 08. Secret Touch 09. Circumstances 10. Between The Wheels 11. Dreamline Intermission Set 2: Video Intro 12. Far Cry 13. Workin' Them Angels 14. Armor And Sword 15. Spindrift 16. The Way The Wind Blows 17. Subdivisions 18. Natural Science 19. Witch Hunt 20. MalNar 21. Drum Solo 22. Hope 23. Summertime Blues 24. The Spirit Of Radio 25. Tom Sawyer Encore: 26. One Little Victory 27. A Passage to Bangkok 28. YYZ It has to be one of the best concerts i have ever seen. The sound was almost perfect, with much more feeling than dream theater and the band having much better stage presence than dream theater as well. Plenty of loud music, crazy lights, Explosions and even a lazer show. Two screens were constantly either showing the band or videos which were hard to follow, Or controversal video clips advertising problems in the world. Rush also added their signature random appliances on stage.. I believed that at first they were some of the craziest bass amps i had ever seen. Later seeing the fact that they had 3 very large chicken ovens each cooking about 50 chickens and a chef would constantly wander on stage to maranade and check on the chicken. This would fill the whole venue with a heavenly scent It was a very large Venue with all seating rather than any standing area. The venue was simply a hockey arena with the stage at 1 end. I would love to go into more detail but for now i am too tired and this will have to do. Overall a great show, great set, interesting videos and an especially impressive lazer show and explosions. Great rock concert You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.

Check out 'All the World's a Stage'. Great live album will give you a feel for what they are like in concert. I have seen them several times and have been a fan for longer than I would admit. Put it this way, I saw them in concert in 1980 for their Permanent Waves tour. They opened with 2112. I remember it like it was yesterday. Go out and buy 2112 and crank it on the best system you can get your hands on, you won't be disappointed. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Oct 7 2007, 04:32 AM	GMC:er Posts: 134 Joined: 12-December 06	I saw them for the 2nd stop of the tour in Mansfield, Ma. And It was one of the best Rush shows I have seen in years. And since the new album is very Hemispheres like it was great to hear stuff they havent played live in 20 years. My personal favorite is All the World's a Stage and 2112 for a studio LP. It seems there are more Rush fans here than I thought when I asked Muris to do a lesson. Maybe you guys can see if he'll do another one on "2112" or Permanent Waves if he gets enough requests. Our good friend Resurrection is dying for those trademark suspended chords & gliding nuances filled with arpeggios and odd time sugnatures of the late 70's early 80's BTW what's up with the trash park video with Geddy eating chicken.
