One of the local Detroit radio stations recently played Van Halen non-stop all weekend long.
Yikes!
What's more is that they "challenged" the other rock stations to do the same. I like Van Halen, normally, but enough is enough! It turned out that they just played the same songs, recorded live at different arenas, over and over again. I really wish they wouldn't do that. If they want to do a block of an hour or two, fine, but 48 or even 18 hours is too much.

Van Halen for about 1 hour at 250 W/Channel is about enough for me.
Only listen to them when the wife is out.
She listens to this Oldies but Goodies station and I had just 'bout enough of "Pretty, pretty, pretty, Peggy Sue, Oh Peggy..."

Do both Rushes have to be on drugs to convey their ideas to their listeners?
Huge fan of Rush and VH. Rush, much like Yes, has some very deep lyrics that border on "korny or gay" at times, but their music is awesome. Dream Theater is another band like this. It's mostly the progressive rock bands.
VH's new song isn't good but I'm glad Sammy is back and I'm looking forward to a new CD!!.

Rush's new album coming out the 29th will be all cover versions! That's a first. I'm still amazed at the quality of music (and lyrics) Rush puts out album after album, are there ANY bands this good out there? Heck, they play for 3+ hours every night, how many newer bands play for more than 2 hours??
Good to see Sammy back with VH again! To me, VH became better musicians in the first 3 albums he did with them.
Dream Theater is great, saw them about 10 years ago, awesome show! Love Metropolis, one of the best art/progressive rock song ever made!

I'm 27 and I find it hard to get into some of today's rock. The prog rock is definitely weak today. Yes, Rush, Dream Theater etc. are bands with highly skilled musicians. John Patrucci of Dream Theater is sick on guitar. They all are amazing players. My brother, believe it or not, can play note for note what this guy plays. It's unbelievable. Kid is talented. We both grew up listening to Eddie, Satriani, Vai, Malmsteen etc. and it just seems that this was such a great time in music. But like anything else, things change/evolve.
WOW
There are actually RUSH fans here on this site???? I'm freaking out
Been a Rush fan since I can remember. Neil is God on drums, I studied him for years and it paid off, played in bands throughout the 80's and 90's. Those gigs got me through college and is how I met my wife. I got Rush tickets for Dallas on the 23rd of this month. Yeah, they give mega-length concerts. You get you monies worth, for sure. They don't have any warm up acts but will still play for 3 plus hours.
