Rush to “Beyond the Lighted Stage”

April 22, 2010

Two of the four shows are sold out, but you can still get tickets to see the doc of the Canadian rock band.

RUSH is definitively a musicians’ band. A few of their songs have made it to the US mainstream radio waves: Tom Sawyer, Closer to the Heart, Freewill, The Spirit of Radio. But this threesome (Geddy with the vocals, Alex with the axe, and Neil with the lyrics and obscene sticks) has made its mark and is one of the most prolific and successful bands of all time.

For all the hockey fans out there, Neil’s revamp of “The Hockey Theme”

For fans of the legendary Canadian band RUSH, this is the documentary to experience. A comprehensive exploration of the entire history of this extraordinary power trio, from their early days growing up in Toronto, through each of their landmark albums, to the present day. Sit back and revel in the words, music, and wonder of Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, and Neil Peart.

With a career spanning four decades, RUSH is one of the most successful bands in the history of popular music, but despite their remarkable career achievements, they have never been recognized as critics’ darlings. Directors Scot McFadyen and Sam Dunn instead revel in interviews with the band’s admirers and contemporaries, including Gene Simmons (Kiss), Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins), Sebastian Bach (Skid Row), Kirk Hammett (Metallica), Jack Black, and others. Chock-full of rare backstage and concert footage, RUSH: Beyond the Lighted Stage leaves no stone unturned in its creation of an intimate portrait of these immensely talented and iconoclastic musicians.
