Rush on tour

[I Should Coco]

Received Clockwork Angels as a Father's Day gift and gave it a first listen today ...

I like what I've heard so far. "Seven Cities of Gold" jumped out as a standout track.

And yeah, nice touch with the "21:12" time on the cover.

May have to try and see the boys in Seattle this fall ...

 

[Claws for Concern]

First post on SportsJournalists.com in nearly 2 years and it's to talk about Rush, a band I've followed for 28 years. Clockwork Angels as a whole is something I will be sinking into for the next few weeks. I am happy with the harder edge sound on this record. I also think there are some songs that hooked me as potential instrumental material, then Geddy sang and I had to accept it.
Already have a least favorite song: Wish Them Well. Digging The Wreckers and The Garden as well as the 2 songs they released on the last tour.
If they were to do another tour with one full album done, the only acceptable one for me is 2112. However, I do hope that because they've now played it on their last tour that The Camera Eye and Vital Signs can be performed again live. It won't though because some people (not me) need Tom Sawyer.
