Well, first let me apologize for the off-topic post, but I simply *must*
respond. Please forgive me.
Rush is tied with Dream Theater (a Rush-influenced group) as my favorite
band. I'm young enough to never have been at a Rush show, but I *will* be
at at least one show on this upcoming tour, since it may be their last.
Since it seems that there are some other Rush fans here, let me throw out
this link:
http://www.rushpetition.com/
That's an online petition to communicate fans' desire to hear some
rarities in the set list. They have a list of songs that have not beel
played live for at least a decade, and you get to vote for 5 of them.
The final results will be submitted to Rush's record company when the new
album is released. If you are a Rush fan, it is your _duty_ to go sign
the petition now!

Yes. They got the idea for it from an Ayn Rand book.
