As for CA, though compressed, I think that the 96/24 version sounds a bit better - a little more "air" and detail. My main phones are slightly modded K702s.

Anxious to see which of the older material they play, but I'm really enjoying the new album too. |

I'll try to put a couple up in the next day or two, but anyone on the fence about going to see Rush needs to just buy a ticket and go!
No surprise, but they were so damn tight and played as if they were still trying to make a name for themselves - well they did tonight, for three hours! |

As others have said already, YYZ with the strings was killer, and the mini fireworks/flame show was better than some 4th of July displays I've seen!
They started the whole show with Subdivisions and Big Money, and the second set started with most of the new album.
All three of them were so spot on, but a few stand outs were how blazingly clean Alex was ripping it up, and it was evident that he's been doing a lot of practice to stay clean and relevant as a guitarist.
The three or so Peart solos just got better and better each time he did another - wow!  |

J! | Just trying to make a point, that no one should miss this, even if they have too pay 'too much' for their ticket!
Since I had a wall at my back, there was virtually no one further from the stage than I was, and even though I ended up paying $165 for that seat, I felt I'd received my money's worth by the time the show was about half over, and kept dreading it ending, now that I had my money's worth.
Instead they just kept going and going! What a band! Did I say they were tight? I mean like starving virtuoso 25 year old unknown players trying to build a following tight! |
