Dokken, Journey and Rush

[Melissa]

Dan, what Rush songs have you even listened to? Have you even tried anything from their modern output?

It's just not disco enough for him

Perhaps if Barry Manilow was their lead singer...

Really....how can you not even like the instrumentals from Rush? They're fucking PHENOMINAL. Get the Snakes & Arrows album...I'm SURE you'll find something you like.

I am still floored every time I hear YYZ. If I remember correctly, it was nominated for a Grammy.

They are the best. Still recording great music and hitting the road. Snakes & Arrows is their best CD in a long time. And when I saw them last summer, they were tighter than ever. They surely don't phone it in. Looking forward to seeing both Journey and Rush this summer.

Rush does rule, but still... you won't see them physically coming out of TV set at 1:30am and reaching out to you like Don did.



I could swear I can make out the stigmata on his hands...

He'd be a ten fold improvement over the current lead singer...but then they'd need a bassist. Get Randy Jackson and they could play Copacabana!!!

After that was the beginning of a Rush song...TV OFF!!!

Die!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey - I'm about to pay $400 for third row Rush tickets!

I wish Dokken could somehow do a three hour show like Rush does...that way we would finally be able to hear some of that Don Dokken solo material...

YYZ is the transmitter code for Toronto's Lester B. Pearson International Airport.

Even more Canadian city code trivia. Most of Canadas airports' 3 letter city codes start with 'Y'. Yul = Montreal, YYC = Calgary, YVR = Vancouver, etc... The truth of the matter is, there are actually 4 letters to city codes. Canadas start with C, so Toronto is actually CYYZ and so forth. The US, all cities start with K, so DFW is actually KDFW. They just strip the first letter to save space.

Are you ready for my deep, dark secret? I'm a huge Barry Manilow fan...took this shot any many more from 8th row floor earlier this year. It was quite a thrill to finally see a show.

Don't worry, though - I would take Toto over Barry any day
