Alright. Well I've never listened to much Rush but it's one of the many bands I've been meaning to listen to. And now my bass teacher gave me Tom Sawyer to learn this week so I decided I would go look up some other rush stuff. So I've also been watching some live video's of them and I'm just wondering what is up with the washing machines behind geddy lee in the preformances?

BTW when I went to see them in September it looked like he had a chicken roaster or something, it was cool.

I would also recommend the following albums, A Farewell To Kings, Hemispheres, Signals, Power Windows, Roll the Bones, and most favorite of mine... Permanent Waves..
give this a listen, it's off A Farewell to Kings.. called Xanadu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qH_PP...eature=related
