Quoted from acedanger:Painful people were eating this shit up though... how does this ever happen WTF they're supposed to be pro's I've heard better karaoke performances Neil was the only one that was keeping it together. Utterly embarrassing lmfao!!
Haha, it's fake. As soon as I heard about 10 seconds of it I knew. There's no way they ever sounded that bad. It's actually very funny!
Please do not take offense if I mentioned you by name. Just having a little fun with some Rush lyrics and Pinsider handles. Enjoy!
kaneda - Even now the intensity of his dread power can be felt,
weakening the body and saddening the heart
CrazyLevi - I've lost a few more hairs
I think I'm going bald
kidchrisso - Our first stop is in Bogota
To check Colombian fields
The natives smile and pass along
A sample of their yield
Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams
Golden Acapulco nights
delt31 - Truth is false and logic lost
Now the fourth dimension is crossed...
robin - And the men who hold high places
Must be the ones who start
To mold a new reality
Closer to the heart
jeffparsons - Begin the day with a friendly voice
A companion unobtrusive
Plays that song that's so elusive
And the magic music makes your morning mood
sunnRAT - What can this strange device be?
When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
It's got wires that vibrate and give music
What can this thing be that I found?
Hayfarmer - My uncle has a country place
That no one knows about
He says it used to be a farm
Before the Motor Law
PinMonk - We are the Priests of the Temples of Syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls
We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls
pinstadium - And echoes with the sound of salesmen...of salesmen...of salesmen.
A couple more...
rocketman - Scorching blast of golden fire
As it slowly leaves the ground
Tears away with a mighty force
The air is shattered by the awesome sound
Multiballmaniac1 - A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better vanished time
I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime
Quoted from dabear007:I’ve been waiting for a RUSH themed pinball for years!
It’s a long shot, but I’d love it if they used the Rock n Roll acceptance speech for the end of game match sequence.
That would be hilarious!
How about after a double danger "Handle with Kid Gloves....." 
What about a hurry up or counter that can be paused like GOT or BM66........
(Time stand still)
I'm not looking back
But I want to look around me now
(Time stand still)
See more of the people and the places that surround me now
Time stand still
Freeze this moment a little bit longer
Make each sensation a little bit stronger
Experience slips away
Experience slips away
Time stand still
During the Match Sequence.....
"We come into the world and take our chances
Fate is just the weight of circumstances
That's the way that lady luck dances
Roll the bones"
Maybe the playfield design can resemble this.
"Against the run of the mill
Static as it seems
We break the surface tension with our wild kinetic dreams
Curves and lines
Of grand designs..."
Quoted from Coindork:I’m not entirely sure why, but I never really got into Rush.
I think it has more to do with environment and exposure as I don’t really know anyone around me who’s a big Rush fan.
I know the few obvious songs, but my familiarity with their catalog of music is pretty limited.
So here’s the question: some of you are obviously very into this band and really excited about this title.
If I want to go down the “Rush rabbit hole”, which album should I start with and where should I go from there? Like when I first heard Pink Floyd as a teen we got stoned and listed to the Dark Side of the Moon and from there it was The Wall - Wish You Were Here etc.
Cheers

Rush's sound changed dramatically over the years. For the early stuff I would recommend Caress of Steel. To me their pinnacle album of the 80's is Moving Pictures. Of their 90's stuff I would recommend Roll the Bones or Counterparts. Of their later 2000's stuff, Snakes and Arrows is very solid. But for some unknown to me reason, my all time favorite Rush album is Power Windows 1985. Probably more synthesizer than most Rush fans prefer, but I just love that album. Manhattan Project is just a masterpiece.
Holy crap. I just listened to Power Windows in it's entirety for the first time in many years. It took me back. Unbelievable how good that album is!
Mystic rhythms
Capture my thoughts
Carry them away
Nature seems to spin
A supernatural way
Mystic rhythms
Under city lights
Or a canopy of stars
We feel the powers and wonder what they are
I don't know. Nobody's Hero got a ton of radio/MTV airplay around here when it came out. So did Big Money, Time Stand Still, Stick it Out, Cold Fire, and Driven. I could see them including at least a song or two from after Signals(1982).
Quoted from TinyBlackDog:Borg posted this on his Facebook page the other day. If you don’t love this, you have no soul.
That medley was pretty much mind blowing. Thanks for posting this!
Quoted from PinBalt:Heard rumor that 17 is not final list. I previously also saw post that 19 was mentioned. That makes 100% sense. 19 songs spanning 19 Studio Albums ( not counting the cover album).
So what songs do you think are missing if true!??
I think this is very possible. 17 is just such a strange number.
I vote for YYZ and Roll the Bones.
This thread has blown up and I can't go back and read all of it. Sorry if this has already been hashed over. How in the hell is Stern spelling a song title wrong, over and over and over. I'm talking about Headlong "Fight". C'mon Stern! It's Headlong Flight. At least it seems as though the misspelling is only all over their media blitz and not actually spelled wrong in the game.
Sheeez, rant over...
I don't have any issue with the artwork of the band. It seems it was done in a humorous style which is exactly what Rush wanted. I did discover something interesting. I came across this image from Rush's acceptance speech at the RnR HOF awards. Absolutely this was the inspiration for Geddy's image on the playfield.
Capture (resized).JPGNot sure if this has been posted. Found this gem on youtube. 1974 at a High School, pre-Peart. Pretty amazing and a real slice of history.
Quoted from swampfire:Rush Premium is my first-ever preorder, and this is the first time I raised funds by selling a pin first. I had LOTR for 17 years, so I don’t think I’ll regret trading it for Rush Pre with the expression lighting. Waiting 4-6 months is going to be tough, but so worth it!
I hear ya man. I did a similar thing when I finally let go of my Tron to help fund a JJP POTC. Don't feel bad John, we all gotta do what we gotta do. I've played the pro and it shoots very nice and your premium will be that much better. I'm excited for you!
