There's a wonderful sense of fatalism that runs through the whole album which closely matches the way I'm feeling at the moment.

I'm really sorry you're going through this, Slaine.

One should never, NEVER, never, be sorry for a Rush album

*does his best Keanu Reeves impersonation*

Dude! That's totally NOT what I meant!

*responds with her best Bill S. Preston Esquire impression*

Excellent!

IMHO, the boys are really breaking new and strange ground with this album. "Malignant Narcisism" has joined "La Villa Strangiato" and "Limbo" as their best instrumentals.

Can't get enough of this album...faves="We Hold On," "Bravest Face," oh, and "Far Cry" kicks some bootay as well.

Yes all of them............I like Armor and Sword a lot also.

Whoa! Kael is posting!

Dude!!!

What Schu said!

We miss your thoughtful posts, especially on all things drumming.

Okay, okay, I admit it. It isn't your thoughtful posts on drumming.


I miss those Sand Flea Souffles!

First thing: I no longer serve up the sand flea suffles. I've seen the light and no longer condone insect gourmet. I'm now into squirrels...mmmmm, squirrel legs flambet

Second thing: My kids' favorite song seems to be "Golden Bowl." I was rather entertained by the fact the song is written in pantoum form. We had to write pantoums in one of my creative writing classes. I wrote several of them, some were near-publishable quality, wonder where they are The form, if I remember correctly, was a kind of courtly, minstrel form in Malasian courts. It's a pretty old form, several hundred years old. Fun stuff, and not as challenging as a sestina.

Long time no see hope your well and very happy to see you once again my old friend

No more Sand Flea Souffles? Hmmm....well, I am game to try the Squirrel Legs Flambet.

Can you possibly find some of those pantoums, KaelMWhoIsWritingToUsAgain?

I tell you what, after seeing the show I really like the album even more. The songs live kick a lot of booty.
