 Saw Rush on wednesday (Peart)
Awesome show. I saw them back in 2002 but was in the nosebleeds. This time I was 3rd row on the floor, just a few meters from Geddy and the Professor. Neil's work is incredible. The guy never ceases to amaze me when it comes to his playing. I wish I could play like him. Maybe in another 20 years or so I'll be able to play something like that but for now, it's good to dream about it.

All of their songs were great live, but I have to say that the absolute highlight of the show (other than Neil's drum orgasm/solo) was DEFINITELY 2112's Overture and Temples of Syrinx (with just a HINT of Discovery at the end!)

Very cool. Did they play mostly their old big ones or newer stuff? (But don't tell me which songs specifically, I like that to be a surprise.  )

They played a good mix. Obviously the tour is to promote Snakes and Arrows, so there were several from it at the show, but they played many 'crowd faves' and lots of 'oldies'.
