Off Topic but music related...



To those that might be fans of Rush (yes, the Canadian rock band), they are to be on The Colbert Report on Wednesday. It's their first TV appearance since 1975.



Cool.

I liked the drum jokes too. (Also being a drummer) Neil Peart was and is a huge influence to me. Love that guy and that band.

I loved the "Neil, do you have a 'drum depency' problem. This in an invervention"

The Les Paul that Mr. Alex Lifeson was playing is a lovely maple sunburst prototype Les Paul Standard with floyd rose tremolo.

Did you see all the Barbie's standing in front of Alex's pedalboard... Classic.

I was at the Colbert taping the day before this episode. I would've killed to be in the studio for them. The clips on the Comedy Central website are fantastic.

I'd have loved to be there too. I (sadly) missed not only the Snakes and Arrows tour but the 2nd go-around of the "Snakes and Arrows LIVE" tour. Feck !!!!
