True story. Many years ago before I got into the wider spectrum of music, I wont lie, I was into whatever was on the pop/mainstream radio stations. My uncle has a recording studio, and I had started going over there to watch his band practice. One night after practice, my uncle and his bandmates were all sitting around drinking, and my uncle put the "Moving Pictures" (a rush album for all of those who are unfamiliar with Rush) on through the studio PA. I remember sitting there listening to YYZ, and after that, I vowed thats what i wanted to do, and I have been playing guitar ever since. Now I'm a music major in college and I have rush to thank! Oh, and if anybody ever gets a chance to see these guys live, GO! They put on a hell of a show. I saw them last summer in Nashville for the first show of their 30th year anniversary tour, and I'll never be the same again. Now if Van Halen would go back on tour, I'd die a happy man lol
