Sorry that you all found last weeks too hard... I thought some of you were Rush fans, that's all ;)

Rush Quiz #8

I decided not to reward a winner for last week since you all had enough time to listen to all 17 albums before answering the questions :p

Mucman - you are pure evil. It's bad enough to see these threads when I'm surfing, but worse to have you PM me. :)

#1 - Circumstances

BTW - Good job, keep it up!

I thought this was about Geoffrey Rush.

I was all ready to buzz in with " Casanova Frankenstein", too

:p

Nice work optoman! 5/7 with a fast response time :). I will crown you the winner for this one! #2 is a tricky one, but not that difficult :)

Any metal fan should get the bonus :)

optoman gets the golden cookie! He has shown mucho talent in naming all Rush songs on his own and has proven that he is an uber Rush fan! Congrats to optoman! :D

btw... extra cookie for not laughing at my attempt on Spirit of the Radio :p

Who says I didn't laugh ;)

These all seem to be pretty easy except for #2. Oh, I had to pull the old Maiden CD out to figure out which song it was. I remember seeing them about 12 years ago. Awesome concert but not as good as Rush.

Can't wait for the trios return to Boston in late October!

I really like rush's new hit from their new album. It's called One Little Victory. I actually contributed this song to a past rush quiz. It was guessed immediately :) hehe

As for older rush... I really like superconductor.

lol... it's all good :)

Here's a great instrumental YYZ (I think it's best that I leave out Geddy Lee's voice :))

silverpig, I would say older Rush is 2112 not Superconductor (albeit that is a fine song, and I believe it was on Rush quiz #7) :)

btw, you can all access the Rush Quiz archives by adjusting the URL :)

I meant older in the sense that it's older than Vapour Trails... :)

ok, I'm a little late to the scene here, so i'll just say, mucman your guitar is a bit out of tune in "Red Barchetta." also this weeks was a bit easier. i enjoyed the Maiden. :)

Yeah I know... the final bar sounds really bad... I figured that one wasa give away so I figured no one would get that far into the clip :p
