Rush Live in 2013 - Clockwork Angels

Any Rush fans out there? A few of us saw them Sunday in Vancouver, WA and this show propelled into my top five all time most enjoyable concerts, and that includes The Who and Genesis in 1974!

The energy, virtuosity and sheer musical power these guys have...we are lucky to have an honest hard working band that still knows how to write great and perform hreat original material all these years later.

Anyone else see them on this tour? Wow!

Saw them in Cleveland for the Time Machine tour when they made the DVD/BD movie. Great show! Saw Roger Waters do The Wall in Pittsburgh last year, too. Hands down, that was the best big venue show I've seen since the early 90's. The sound was simply superb.

I saw this tour in Glasgow indeed I've seen every tour since R30 and saw them around 8 times between 1979-83.

It was good pretty great in parts I preferred the set list on the Time Machine Tour...

CA is an ok record but not much more than that imho.

Trust me, with repeated listenings, CA will certainly grow on you; it took me time to begin to understand the question, "who is the watchmaker?" and the meaning relative to today's situation. The first in a long while of true thematic, single concept albums by the band.

I've listened to the album a lot Steve-it doesn't really grab me-it's flawed has some great moments but I really don't think they've got a grip of their production and arguably arrangements in recent years.

It's probably a good/great album of old style vinyl length but over a CD it is too patchy.

I will never buy another RUSH album BECAUSE of this album.
