Great stuff...

I've also seen Alan Parsons Project open for Yes at a Winery here in Seattle that was a pretty damn good concert.

It's always been tough for me to choose between Rush and Pink Floyd as my favorite. I guess I'm on a Rush kick because they are coming out here July 2nd to The Gorge, which is an awesome venue for any band.

Neil wrote in his book "Ghost Rider" the following about a concert I attnded out there:

In May of 1997, on the Test for Echo tour, Rush played a concert at The Gorge, an outdoor ampitheatre overlooking the treeless banks of the Columbia, which rippled westward from the backstage area in muscular bulges of yellow grass. In early evening, the air's perfect clarity played infinite shadings of light over the simple, dramatic landscape, and we took the stage in front of about 20,000 people (one of our largest crowds ever) just as the slow sunset dimmed into the cloudless, transparent twilight - soon overpowered by the colored stage lights, follow spots, and video screens, and overlooked by a rising half moon. It was the most beautiful setting in which I had ever performed. - Neil Peart

Very cool! We saw Alan Parsons Project at TPAC Nashville & Yes a couple of times - the last time in the Ryman --That was cool.
