    Beyond the lighted stage

    Did anyone else get to see this fairly comprehensive documentery on the band Rush? It was very well done and covered their lives from before being in the band through their latest album. It was fun learning the inside stories to their choices along the way. IE: I had always thought that John Rutsey had quit the band, but it seems that he was more or less pushed out a few weeks before their first tour. They went though their albums in order. Each one reminded me of where I was in my life at the time that that music had come out. Memories of high school and college rushed back as they described their ideas behind the song Subdivisions.
    It did get sad towards the end as they told how Neil’s daughter had died in a car crash and how his wife got sick and died not long after as well. It seems that he took a motercycle for a 55,000 mile ride to clear his head. He went across Canada, into Alaska, down the coast to Mexico and then back home. Then it told of his strugles to get back on stage.
    All and all it was very enjoyable. I recommend it to anyone who appreciates their music.

    Someone on another board mentioned this. A member said he was going to set his DVR. Wonder when he's going to set it for. I'll have to research this.

    I set my DVD last week when I saw it would be on. It recorded early yesterday and I watched it last night. It was being rebroadcast on VH1 several times yesterday PM.

    Sooner than I thought.

    I thought I remembered the add saying June 28th, but figured that that must be wrong.

    It was on HDNET????! Damn, I missed it. I know it was on Palladia, but that channel isn't available here.

    I'm going to have to check the HDNET site for a repeat.

    Why is the DVD 2 disks and the BD only one? Can BD hold more on a disk?

    BDs hold a metric ass-ton of data. It's like 25 GB on a single-layer disc, 50 GB on a dual-layer disc. Compared to 4.7 and 8.5 GB on DVD.

    That's why I was torqued up about getting that PT disc last week. Having the whole show on a single disc is something I like. (So is hi-def video. So is uncompressed surround audio.)

    It’s a very technical term that most laymen (or laywomen) don’t get to hear much.

    No Palladia in Canuckland. Although I've written my cable company and suggested that they add it.

    I'm going to have to go out and buy this today. I have a four day weekend ahead of me, so I'm sure that I can find time to watch it.
