Rush Promises Surprises
Tuesday, April 1st, 2008
When my wife and I married this past August the one band that seemed to get referred to the most in the various speeches throughout the evening was Rush. My mom mentioned them, I mentioned them, I’m sure my best man did. I never thought that when I would get hitched that Rush would be a core part of my wedding. Talk about a surprise.
Speaking of surprises, Alex Lifeson is promising some surprises on the next leg of the “Snakes and Arrows” tour. Here’s what he told Billboard:
“We thought we should maybe revisit some older songs we’re not playing currently or haven’t been in the last little while. So we changed out a few songs in the set. We’re gonna keep it loose and maybe kind of bounce back and forth.”
Personally, I’m hoping for a full blown version of “Xanadu”. What do you say, guys? Geddy? Alex? Neil? I know you’re reading.
In the meantime, what would you like to hear when Rush roll into the Molson Amphitheatre Wednesday July 9th?
Check out this classic version of Xanadu and then use it as today’s bonus code:
