Anyone who confiscates someone's Rush album will burn in hell.
 Ok, not really but I think that's a pretty crappy thing to do. Some people (religious or not) are just so quick to judge without knowing all the facts. I think that actually might fit into one of the "fear" songs. "Witch Hunt" maybe.

I hear ya!! Although I always understood the pentagram pointing down, meaning the two points upward was the satanic version with the devil as a goat. With the pentagram as on the cover it is a sign of a human being.....

Rush was one of the bands that got me in trouble. Back
in the mid-late 70s, my parents didn't really care what I listened to.
We were far enough apart, and my stereo modest, using headphones my noise was never a
nuisance. I think they actually liked some of my Yes. The
problem I had was when we got a revival preacher that was a real fire
breather who preached about the devil, all of his works and
his cunning snares for youth. Of course, it was this album that got confiscated.  We fought over it but what really got me in trouble was for smarting off to the revival preacher who knew nothing about the album but was completely focused on the cover. I found this to be a recurring theme with narrow-minded people. Of course, I replaced 2112 later and eventually had the pleasure of seeing Rush in concert three different times. I doubt the band ever had in mind the other lessons you could learn from their music. Edited by jamessavik - April 08 2022 at 09:07 |

I'm surprised Alex said that about Phil. Old bands continue to play because they love music.
Robert Fripp has always sat down while performing, so why can't Phil? |

He was talking about longevity of bands and when it is time to retire. The diss part was when he said "Unlike some artists who end up in a chair on a stage singing… I would
never, ever, ever want to be like that. For what purpose? Is it money?
Is it some egotistical drive? Get over it. Get over yourself. You know,
it’s just, I don’t know… I’m just not like that."

No joke, I was watching that on my TV the other night!  I couldn't believe what it turned out to be. I thought it was going to be a more obvious choice. Beato has so many great videos. I do love his WMTSG? breakdown of Van Halen's "Jump."

Your not kidding on auto tune as well playing live in a recording studio, not something that happens today.....I think he is being kind sometimes when he listens to those Top streamed tunes.  His interviews are very good also, I really enjoy the one he did with Sting about a month ago.

Absolutely love this guy as well. His channel is awesome. Also Jose I love when he visits new music’s top 15 on Spotify. He has some pretty choice words to say about that auto tune garbage. |

I'm on there (new world man). I wasn't aware the site was down. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of prog fans on there though. Most Rush fans (on there at least) seem to be into heavy metal stuff or anything metal related.

I am, but no idea. It's been down since first thing this morning for me (UK). Sad too to see TNMS has permanently gone offline.
