I've followed Rush for years since I met Geddy Lee at the Manchester Apollo in the 70's when they toured the UK.

This is a brilliant live dvd - far better than the Rush at the NEC recording (I went to that concert too) but I think that is largely because the music has improved a lot from the days of Geddy taking the synth front stage instead of Alex Lifeson's guitar playing.

If you remember Chrnicles, this is pretty much the defniitive live history of Rush's volume of work, kicking off with Tom Sawyer which for some reason became hugely popular in Brazil as a the opening track on a TV series there.

I liked particularly the documentary "The Boys in Brazil" which gives you a personal glimpse into an otherwise very camera shy trio when it comes to their private life - watch out for Alex joking with his wife in the hotel room about putting on make-up.

You'll enjoy this, so get the kids out, plug in the home cinema and get ready to rock out.
