Rush is no doubt a great band with very impressive discography under its belt, but I do find Gong a lot more .. how should I put it - interesting?

ExactlyBig smile

I went with Gong, quite easily to, but they're no match for Rush in the end. I'm merely speculating here, but I foresee at least a 10-15 gap between them in the end. 
One shouldn't underestimate the power of Rush on PA. Whenever you see a Gong fan you will have seen 10 of Rush'.

Picking Rush over Gong was an easy choice for me.
