LOL, I'm 34 Bill. Most of the music from Rush was from the 70s and I wasn't exactly into their music at a young age. I am certainly aware of their music, but it just wasn't music I grew up on.

Yea, I saw them live here when they did their Long Road tour. The music was great, the band was energetic, but for my tastes too much focus on smoking weed, and getting drunk.

I think most of the ladies on the stadium floor had removed their bras and threw them up on the stage by the end of the show.

I also heard recently that Chad Kroeger (lead singer) was arrested for a DUI somewhere, in the States I believe. Dumba$$.

I used to like them, but that was back when they released the state. Curb wa a pretty good album too, but after The State all their songs started to sound exactly the same. I'm with Wayne, when their music comes on I change the station or turn down the volume. They aren't even a contender for a good Canadian band in my mind. They're just a bunch of sell outs.

By first CD do you mean Curb? Not many people knew of them then. I actually liked The State best.

I have seen them and met them a few times. I know some of thier relatives. It pissed me off when Chad started dating his now fiancee or wife Marianne she was my hair dresser. She is a good hair dresser( although you would never know it by his hair) and she is hot very fast company if you know what I mean .
