"I also liked it better when Geddy belted out songs in his ultra-high falsetto, but he probably can't hit the upper register like he used to...oh well, the years take their toll on us all."

Actually, having just seen them live less than 24 hours ago, I have to say, Geddy's voice is as high and squeeky as ever.

I saw them about 8 years ago and at that time, Geddy seemed unable to hit the really high notes. But not anymore.

Oh and I have to vote for "Presto" as my all time favorite Rush album. "Show Me, don't Tell Me" and "The Pass" are such awesome songs...

"Superconductor" goes through my mind whenever those horrible Academy Award red-carpet preview look-at-us shows come on.

Yep. I saw them a month ago in Virginia Beach and Geddy hit each and every note. I'd be interested in seeing them later on in the tour to see how his voice holds out, but knowing their dedication and conditioning, he'll probably be as solid as ever. They are in better shape than most 20-something rockers, and put on one heckuva show!
