News and Winter Advice From Geddy Lee

I wanted to drop a post to let every­one on the HEAD­Rush friends list that sadly, there is not likely to be any shows this com­ing year, unless some­thing changes.  I will still keep up the site and post from time to time if any­thing Rush­like hap­pens. I will also be doing every­thing I can […] Read more »

Hey thanks every­one for sup­port­ing Head­RUSH and Metal Priest­ess at Molly’s over the Labor Day week­end.

[Fic­tion piece from Road & Track  —  Novem­ber 1973, pp.148  –  150]
It was a fine morn­ing in March 1982. The warm weather and clear sky gave promise of an early spring. Buzz had arisen early that morn­ing, impa­tiently eaten break­fast and gone to the garage. Open­ing the door, he saw […] Read more »

Alex Has Groupie Problems?

Happy Bastille Day!

Happy Bastille Day every­body! On this day back in 1789 Parisians stormed the Bastille, free­ing its inmates and tak­ing the prison’s large quan­ti­ties of arms and ammu­ni­tion, thereby set­ting in motion the French Rev­o­lu­tion. More impor­tantly, back in 1975 Rush decided to write a song about it. There’s no bread, let them eat cake!

Dave’s Back!

If you have waited decades for the sig­nal to come out of the closet and declare your alle­giance to “The Holy Tri­umvi­rate,” as Jason Segal dubs Rush in “I Love You, Man,” con­sider this your offi­cial notice.
 After 35 years as […] Read more »
