Best live Rush CD Long-time Rush fan here. Straight away this became my favourite live Rush CD. Because - the mix is spot on, and the choice of songs. You don't feel like you're lost in the crowd or 10 miles away from the stage or wearing cotton-wool earplugs. It's the first time Rush have got the mix dead right for a live CD in my opinion.

While I like the Snakes and Arrows studio album I wasn't impressed by the amount of songs off it that they played live. It's not a case of another live Rush album but you do have the sense they are cashing in what with the studio, the MVI version and now the live version. To be fair though the recording quality... more info
