I've been listening to Rush as long as Zep, was a total Rush freak 
until
"Power Windows". Went to the same high school Lifeson attended, 
learned
to play guitar in front of a mural that A. Zivjinovich painted. 
Geddy's
high school was our local rival. Saw them four times, sat 26th row,
centre stage on the floor when they recorded the "Grace Under 
Pressure"
concert video. Used to pass L'Amoreaux Secondary, where the
"Subdivisions" video was filmed, every day on my way to work. Still 
have
my "Moving Pictures" baseball tee with the black body and white arms.
(It sure don't fit now!)

I know, and like, my Rush.

No, its far more heinous than that. It's a potentially decent album 
that
is infuriatingly interrupted by wanking.
