Much like Dave when stadium arcadium came out, I am torn at the offer. While I appreciate it, Rush is something special. I need to purchase it and listen to the album the whole way through, with the linear notes, etc. See what letter it\'s brought to you by, thanks to the omega factor, and all the other subtle jokes they put in. If you happen to come across any bootlegs from the upcoming tour I would be interested as those are all stealth jobs, but the album I think I will wait for the release date.

Good things come to those who wait.

I heard a track off the new album on the radio the other day.

I don\'t recall the song title but the bass line was pretty cool very funky, it didn\'t match the lyrics IMO that well but the music was very good. The sound wasn\'t typical Rush. Much more bouncy if that makes sense.

I would have to listen to it again but I thought it was decent.

rush are progressive rock gods...
the music makes the vocals not even an issue for me.
3-4-05:  Inspired, enlightened, surprised, excited, confused, evoked euphoria, focused, newfound faith in music.

Geddy Lee ESPN side project: glam/prog rock band Iron Diamond
Posted at 09:50 AM
The ESPN commercial featuring Geddy Lee that I first mentioned a couple weeks back has been airing regularly and I pointed you to the YouTube link over the weekend. With all the hullabaloo of the last couple days I didn\'t get a chance to post many details about the commercial - which is for fantasy baseball on ESPN. It features the ESPN crew including John Kruk and Peter Gammons along with several special guests including Geddy Lee performing as the glam/progressive rock band Iron Diamond. The song played is called Guide Me Master. The band even has a MySpace page which has a lot of great photos and the commercial posted. For those of you who don\'t have access to MySpace I\'ve posted a few of the pics. The band members are as follows:
 
John Kruk: lead vocals, ESPN Baseball Tonight Cohost
Peter Gammons: vocals, guitar, ESPN Baseball Tonight Cohost, writer
Bronson Arroyo: vocals, guitar, 2006 MLB All-Star Pitcher
Geddy Lee: vocals, bass, Rush frontman, fantasy baseball genius
Gary Sheffield: drums, MLB slugger with 455 career HR\'s and counting
Joe Borowski: keytar, closer, 2006 Comeback Player of the Year Finalist
Jennie Finch: vocals, ESPN Fantasy Analyst, Olympic Gold Medalist
Matthew Berry: vocals, Senior Director of Fantasy for ESPN.com
Eric Karabell: vocals, ESPN Fantasy Analyst, ESPN Radio Host
Buster Olney: vocals, ESPN the Magazine Senior Writer, NY Times\'
 
There\'s also a great interview with Geddy where he talks fantasy baseball up at ESPN.com here. Thanks to reader Xanagirl for pointing me to the MySpace page.

 I love this. It\'s so damn cheesy. :P

Always appreciated RUSH..Never really liked them until I saw them live in 2004.  Killer show and of course, killer musicianship....It gave me a new view of them.

AND...How did this get to Muslim\'s, Dubai, Politics???  
Peace, Chris
