Rush still shows us how it's done
by alexgeddyneil on 2010-07-18Air Canada Centre - TorontoRating: 5 out of 5With almost 40 years of music making together, and pushing 60 years of age, these guys show why they are some of the most respected musicians in the world, regardless of genre. In this day and age of manufactured pop stars, it is refreshing to see a band so committed to substance over style. No mind blowing pyrotechnics, (a few obligatory explosions and fireworks), no giant revolving stages, no outlandish costumes, makeup, or 25 background dancers, just three guys delivering incredible music. I got tired just watching Neil Peart blast out non-stop poly rhythms at a frenetic pace that boggles the mind. They are the epitome of tight, flawless playing, their virtuoso skills honed by years of creativity and practice. They sound like a ten piece band, but yes, it really is just three guys! Awesome experience, would go again!
