And just out of curiosity, where are the Tool fanboys I normally see? It seems like only a few managed to show themselves.

Rush has never really clicked with me, but Tool is one of my favourite modern bands, so Tool for me.

Both are the kind of important, influential, etc.bands who don't really click on me. I can enjoy them on a certain degree, but we are not that close friends.
Maybe Tool is a bit more intriguing for me.

Rush, Rush, Rush....
But in this another case...: Journey Vs Premiata Forneria Maconi please added this option: both! (P.s.: obvious... In the case of this Rush Vs Tool this option is not necessary!)

I voted for Rush, although Tool has the advantage in that you can mosh at their live shows.

The flipside is however, that Rush might have the most fanboys of all the classic bands as well. Although, I think that Genesis and VDGG would give them a run for their money; not to mention all of the Magma fans that seem to keep coming out of the woodworks. I hesitate to say Genesis has more than Rush just because most of the Genesis fanboys tend to hate Genesis post-Gabriel, whereas most of the Rush fanboys may not love the post-classic album era, there is not as much hate for these albums.

I must be one of the only members of this site who think Rush is greatly overrated.
