Rush Time Machine is pretty darn good.

I have to agree with you sir. The biggest complaint that I've heard from Rush fans as late is the fact that they are not in the RRHOF. I personally think that the fact that they're not, gives them more credibility. Its nice nice to see the old pros, including John, schooling these youngsters on how to rock!!

Man, with the people they have inducted lately (and who they haven't), I am thinking that the R&RHOF has no cred.

It truly has become a joke. On a side note, have you heard the new Van Halen sound clips? Sounds pretty tasty.

Every part of the VH fan in me wants to like it, but I just can't get into it. My big issue, aside from DLR's lack luster vocals and incoherent lyrics, is the lack of hunger and spirit. I have heard a majority of it and have watched the video for the deluxe package DVD. If a song has been passed over once, it isn't worth rehashing. Those are the words from Ed in the 90s. All of these tunes are reworked tunes from the old days. A couple were from the Gene Simmons demo session. Eddie went through his garage full of tapes and this is what the album is. It doesn't sound challenging for an EVH in his peak.

As far as going to see them live, nose bleed seats in KC, are over $250 for a pair. I think we will pass. They are coming with Kool and the Gang. I cannot figure that one out. The speed dialer is armed with the radio station number. Free is the only way I will go.

I will spend the money if Ed and Sammy truly make up, become friends, and have Mike come back. Ed will never do that.

I thought VH was going to play more club style venues.

Also, Rush is fun.
