Right on Ron!

You'll love it!

So damn cool!

saw the film in a video cafe that was a private room reserved for twenty people with big round leather chairs (like in the "friendly giant" surrounding a round table. they had big bowls of coffee with handles on them and pastries. very atmospheric.

great vid and had lotso laughs, being from that same brand of canadian humour ! to those that saw it...in the beginning, there is bearded alex arguing with his parents at home about not wanting to be rich or a business man...that was filmed by alan king and was a documentary on the , then current wants and attitudes of young people in canada and their feelings on what they wanted to do with their lives. try checking alan king/alex lifeson on the net and it may show the whole film that was shot or at least an explanation. i see they missed talking about their first live album that was recorded over 3 nights at massey hall in toronto of which a buddy/ex lighting guru for the early dwarfs shot on super 8.

It was playing in my area last Thursday, but I'm in a bowling league and couldn't make it. I did, however, pre-order the Blu-ray from my local music store. Can't wait!

That's interesting, Ron. I wondered who shot that footage! I was telling my brother about it yesterday...He asked who shot it...I said: "Hmmm...I don't know, I think maybe his dad?"

So now I know!

Yep. The remastered ESL DVD is smokin'. Best Rush bass tone ever.

This should be mandatory viewing for all forumites! Regardless of whether you like Rush or not, it's a fun movie.

I have a very strange affair with RUSH. I am one of those that absolutely respect their ability as musicians, but I have to be honest .. I can only take Geddy's voice in limited quantities. nothing against him or them of course, just a matter of personal tastes. I am going to watch the movie though because I am interested in their story :)

Really surprised they are showing it on DVD BEFORE the DVD is out. I heard June 28 for the DVD release, am I wrong?

just went to the VH1 Classic site and it's a sure deal. they are airing it as that nights edition of their program "Rock Docs", a documentary series :wink:
