Back to back concerts for the Power Trio this weekend! Saturday at the Gorge and Sunday in Vancouver.

I'll be at both.

Any of you going to be there?

Rush ROCKS!

No, great musicians, kicked ass in the 80's but a little too mellow for me in the rock department. Have fun.

+1

I use to love their older stuff ( still do ) my rock concerts days are over but have fun and say hi to the Toronto trio !!!

i'll be at Rush's sunday show here in vancouver. i've been a huge fan since 77, i was 12 years old! i love all of the bands 70s 80s stuff. the 90s stuff i don't mind. the two recent releases are fine but not my faves.

then on monday magicfly and i will be at the iron maiden show up at white river. THE TROOPER!!!

Who's "Rush"?

JEBUS NO.... Please turn down the suck

They are stopping here next week with Styx. I'll be gone fly fishing.

I used to like Rush back when we rode around with a Frisbee under the seat and a "car bong" in the console.. Christ we must have been baked supreme. That Geddy Lee is one creepy little witchy poo looking midget that sounds like a cat with its nuts slammed in a car door. Drummer dudes the whole show.

Now if AC/DC could dig Bon Scott up for a show, I'd sell the house to see it.

I don't have strong opinions about Rush either way...I like some songs, don't like a few, and don't know the other 90% of 'em...but I have noticed this...

Rush fans are weird. They're the same dudes who like Queensryche and Pantera, and other stuff like that...

I have a feeling that Mr. Brewer will be having a very good weekend!

12 years old, 1982...my first concert was Judas Priest at the Tacoma Dome, and the following weekend saw Iron Maiden at the Coliseum...that was some "trial by fire" if you wanted to enter the concert scene as a kid, which I did...I hardly missed a good show for about eight years, and then just kinda stopped going except for once or twice yearly trips.

Fish on...

Todd

Word.

Rush is OK in my book. i still pull 2112 out for a spin, but not too much of the rest gets much play time here.........too busy being wierd listening to Pantera and Tool.

brun good gag.... rush w/styx. rush has not carried a opening band since the mid 90s.

todd maybe your right, about rush fans being wierd. but i've always been on the fence with QR, but am not a pantera fan at all. there is just a few bands that i actually really follow anymore.

Just show those kids how to party at the shows this weekend...

neil pearts solos are always a high for me. he nolonger spped drums like did in 70s. he is more of a intricate finesse soloists now. i still recall hearing the solo on rush's 1st live, "all the worlds a stage". the working man solo. i was just a kid then and totally blown away by his speed and use of cowbells and other percussion.

If anything, I get to stop by to pay homage at the Bridgeport Brewery.

Parker's gonna drink the Nectar of the Gods straight from the boob on Sunday!

Is The Brewer gonna be anywhere in the area of Bridgeport on Sunday? If so, we should try to meet up for a beer or three.

Mmmm, Bridgeport IPA

PS. Parker is still confused as to why the pissers in Bridgeport are taller than he is. Drinking more doesn't seem to make them any less smaller......

Cant make the shows





+1 on the bridgeport IPA







Not wierd at all

those pissers are prehistoric. back when i was a brewer there, it was very common to have women in the mens room gauking at those huge urinals. the building that BP is in was built 30 years after the civil war! if you haven't been to BP recently expect to see some major changes all around the place.

parker not sure where i'll be on sunday. prolly fishing with magicfly on the washougal most of the day. we can try to meet up at the show sunday night be for it starts though.

the parker, thats funny.... brewer will be with WFFF from sh.net

The end of the world is nigh! Parker and Brewer are both talking in third person, to each other even. Dogfish is headed to his bunker. Crap, you got Dogfish doing it too!

Went to the last Rush concert at White River. It was okay, but my last one. I love the old stuff, and sat in the front row at one concert in 1985 or 1986, but the new stuff is just a bit too out there for my taste.

DF, that would have been the "grace under pressure" tour. my 1st show was the "presto" tour in 1991.

@ 2:54 is why Rush fell off my radar...Geddy's a godd Bassist, but vocally he's weak...
