Rush was over before I was born.

My first concert was Metallica opening for Ozzy in 1985.

My next concert was Motorhead.

The last two concerts I went to were Soil and Volbeat.

That should tell you what I think of Rush.

They had a couple of good songs in the 80s but besides that, meh.

Cookie cutter classick rock stations play their same four hits in rotation so the stale/annoyance factor goes up a few notches

Agree on the talent. Neil Peart is a great rock drummer, probably have to break out of the rock genre and into Jazz to find better. Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee are also very talented musicians, but Geddy Lee's voice falls into that either you like it or you don't category. They went too Prog Rock for my tastes with their later stuff, but I liked the early stuff, with Rand inspired lyrics. Pretty easy for libertarian leaning types to connect with.

Some of the most talented musicians out there and Neil Peart is arguably the best drummer every right next to Dream Theater's Mike Portnoy.

This is how the "superiority guy" joke got started. There is an Internet law, not yet named, so call it Damone's law, that when discussing the best musician in any category, someone will eventually pull out a name very few people have heard of, from a band that very few people have heard of, in order to show just how deep, and superior their knowledge on the subject is.

Fetters is great at this.

Well Done

The Flaming Cunts keyboardist is the best

I saw them in 1988. All girl band. They didn't really play as a unit. Seemed compartmentalized. Fought on stage a lot. Seemed quite irritated with each other. I'm not surprised they broke up.

I find it hard to believe there's been a better drummer than Keith Moon.

John Bonham is the best dead drummer.
