The Rush show was awesome. I loved the tune selection - it was 2 new tunes, several of the tunes that I dig from more recent albums, and then a TON of older stuff. Some from Rush, Fly By Night, 2112, Permanent Waves, Signals, ALL of Moving Pictures... that's about as good as a Rush fan of my vintage could hope for.
They weaved in some video content that was pretty hilarious, and all three guys played their butts off.
Such a great weekend! Many thanks for organizing/hosting, Gard!! |

The funny thing is, this wasn't my first visit to the shop. And, it was playing Gard's personal basses that really tripped the trigger, and I'm not a 6-string guy.
Oh, and seeing pictures of Greg's basses.. drool..
I have the funds to make this happen. The question is, do I have the guts/bad judgment/ability to sleep on the front lawn for a week?
