ya couldn't have hit it more on the bulls eye with that one. They start out simple as hell and then as the song progresses, they slowly get more complex and then at the end its your typical neil. i guess thats why i love that song so much.

I wish I could, Sir Myghin. But I live in Sarawak. To find albums like this is really hard. The best we have is frikkin' A-Teens. :(

I'm giving bravado another listen. You're right. It's really complex at the end. I can see clearly now why this song is powerful.

Damn. Now I feel like cranking up the volumes & singing along :-)

i personally love Bravado because of the repeated guitar part. it never fails to bring a tear to my eye!! you guys are definitely right about the drums though. VERY much less (much less??) simple towards the end. just an amazing song altogether.

it's the eastern state of Malaysia. It's located on the northern part of Borneo Island. Nice place with home brewed rice wine & all. :-D

There's actually a perception among the peninsular Malaysians that we live up on trees; that we live on jungle produce & have tattoos on every nook & cranny of our bodies. In a way there's some truth to it (except the tree part :frown: )

Okay, Dio-Rush trivia here. Ronnie James Dio organized the Hear 'N Aid album which raised money to counter starvation in Africa. What Rush song was on that ablum?

Today's bassline is Rivendell. Geddy really plays bass the way it was meant to be played on this track. Rush on 8)

(This goes into effect 15 minutes from now)
