Mr. Musicface Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Since we haven't had a Rush thread in at least a couple of days, I thought I'd forward this wonderful piece of information that just arrived in my mailbox for all you big fans out there! quote: Hello Rush Fan, We're writing because you participated in Rushpetition.com last year, in the lead-up to Rush's 2002 "Vapor Trails" tour. I wanted to let you know that we've re-launched a new and improved version of www.rushpetition.com , and we're now taking votes for songs that fans want to see performed on the NEXT Tour! It's the same general idea as last time...but I think we've tweaked it to make it even cooler this time. The band's new release - "Rush In Rio" - hits stores this week, and rumors abound about a potential 2004 tour (in celebration of the band's 30th anniversary)... So, stop on by and cast some new votes if you'd like: www.rushpetition.com All the best, -Skip Daly www.rushpetition.com Peace, Mr. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Why do I get this feeling that Dr. H is going to try to get "Weather Report Suite", "Mexicali Blues", or "The Greatest Story Ever Told" set up on the petition as write-in candidates... And if he does, what design of Apocalypse Shelter would be best for the cataclysm that's surely to come? Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Freak Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 I'm gonna request "Time stands still" And maybe "Voices Carry" for a cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave-O Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Well they broke out Natural Science on the Test for Echo tour, so I'm pretty satisfied. How 'bout "Battlescar"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Musicface Posted October 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Top votes so far are for "Camera Eye", that'd be quite a coup to get that next time around. "Hemispheres" is like 5th or 6th - well they did "2112" on T4E so why not eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Musicface Posted October 28, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Geddy Lee used to say that one tune he'd love to cover someday is "Vienna" by Ultravox - that'd certainly be interesting. Or something by The Who, which apparently they often do in soundcheck. - M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secondtube Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 is this to take Rush off Q? if so, i'll sign up twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Good call on the Battlescar - whatatune... Kim Mitchell's band used to do it, and they used three drummers. They did a bang-up job of it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Mr. M... I am convinced this thread is another part of your master plan to turn this board into rushsanctuary.ca Seriously though... since reading all these Rush posts, I am finding that I hear Rush nearly every time I turn on the radio. Evil plan phase 2 perhaps? Infiltrating the airwaves? Inundating every station with Rush requests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted October 28, 2003 Report Share Posted October 28, 2003 Rush covering The Who. I'd think I'd died and gone to heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'll have to hang you above a pit of boiling hot lava on a rope that lowers slowly toward the lava so you will surely be killed, and of course I'll leave the room at the last minute, smug in my victory - hey, I'm a busy evil villain. Because of course there's no possible way you could escape, is there? Mawahahahahahahahaha! - M. P.S. Like the updated avatar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
