GIG: La Villa Strangiato (Rush Tribute) - Leicester


The Musician, a place we haven't been for a VERY long time, and nothing like we remembered it. A pretty decent venue actually although the sound levels were way too high, leaving us with buzzy ears. But still, it was a good gig, and very amusing watching all the old guys taking a trip down memory lane.

This was no 'Greatest Hits' set, songs featured included: The Pass / Leave That Thing Alone / Xanadu / Jacob's Ladder / Chemistry / Subdivisions / The Trees / Circumstances / Tom Sawyer / YYZ / Marathon / Overture / Temples of Syrinx / Presentation / Soliloquy / Grand Finale / Prelude / Apollo / Dionysus / Armaggeddon / Cygnus / The Sphere / Limbo... and presumably La Villa Strangiato after we'd left.

The band were very good, the singing was the weak link if anything - but Geddy's not exactly the easiest singer in the world to copy while playing bass and keyboards and pedals... so fair play to him.
