    LMFAO ... Rush is a classic band?

    Sure they are.

    They're almost as classic as Bachman Turner Overdrive...

    Wow, I'm amazed. It's one of my favorites too. Probably the best lyrically from Neil. We seem to think along the same line, Stilles. You wanna...

    Great musicians? Yes.

    But great musicians and great bands are many times two different things, are they not?

    Bottom line, if you dig their music then that's all that really matters, anyway. I just disagree with some of the opinions voiced about whatever musical legacy that they might leave. No offense intended to you Rush fans. Or to you Bachman Turner Overdrive fans...

    Rush is to music what peanut butter and jelly sandwiches are to cuisine.

    Rush. Someone made a snide remark about outgrowing them in the tenth grade, but I've known more than one person who didn't ditch their Rush albums until their freshman year of college. I just want to be fair about the whole thing.

    Those chumps are to music what architects are to art. They can be admired for their technical achievements and feats of engineering, and rightly so. But they're completely bereft of artistic talent. "Today's Tom Sawyer gets high on you?" That has to near the top of the cringe-inducing lyric list.

    If I wanted technical brilliance, I'd grab some popcorn and watch a neurosurgeon. When I want art, I'll stick with art.

    I'd suggest a gold star for that, but you've already got a pile of 'em. Just don't trash any of those other hopelessly pretentious yet culty groups like King Crimson or Jethro Tull. Otherwise you could stand to make a lot of enemies, apparently. Me? I'm all about Nazareth, dude! Whooooo!
