Truly, I have never seen nor heard of a woman who knows of RUSH and is not turned off bigtime by them. (Which is why I keep my love of early RUSH, i.e., anything past Signals, in the closet)

This sounds weird, but I think some of it may be due to the high-pitched voice of Geddy Lee (especially in the earlier years). My wife can't stand the higher notes, and I read a study where most women like bass sounds more than the treble. Plus, not too many love songs! Although she did go to a concert with me when we were first dating ("I gotta marry me this gal!)

I was thinking of going to their concert in the Seattle area this summer (White River Amphitheatre). What do folks think about bringing my 9 year-old son? He's just starting guitar ($100 acoustic variety!) and thought he might have enjoy it. I have a feeling it wouldn't hold his attention though.

I'm a big Rush fan pre-Signals as well. (I forgot about Signals, I was thinking GUP).

"Farewell to Kings" is prolly my favorite.
