Rush fans! It isn't the year 2112, but 2/11/2 is close enough, right? (1 Viewer)

[Bob McLaughlin]

Why not play this great album today in honor of the date, since none of us will be alive when it actually is the year 2112.

 

[Mark C Sherman]

Great Idea Bob
I'll Have to dust off my copy when I get home.

Looks like I got all the remasters in time. I shall be rocking in Bangkok tonight.

 

[Jeff_A]

This was a great thought, Bob! Mike may be rocking in Bangkok, but I will be learning my Lessons tonight. Remastered version, of course.

 

[Mike Broadman]

Ah Jeff, you know you can't get Something for Nothing.

Oh my god, where am I, the Twilight Zone?

ba-doom, ching

Somebody take me to the Oracle, please!

Looks like this thread is filled with Subdivisions
As for myself, I'm going to take in some Moving Pictures while I learn a few Lessons

 

[Mike Broadman]

This thread is turning into

Wheels within wheels in a spiral array

A pattern so grand and complex

 

[Michael Caicedo]

See you in the Temple of Syrinx!

Yes. I hear it'a a cool place. They've taken care of everything!!! The words you read, the songs you sing, and my favorite: the pictures that give pleasure to your eye!!

What can this strange device be?

 

[TheoGB]

I thought Rush were a British band? In which case, like the rest of the world, the date was 11/2/2. Oh well
2nd November, however...

 

[Mike Broadman]

They're Canadian.

Besides, the date depends on where your copy of the CD is. Yeah, that's it.

Attention all planets of the Solar Federation,

We have assumed control,

We have assumed control,

Listening currently to the MFSL Gold Remaster.

I Am Canadian.

I haven't listened to 2112 in awhile. It was among the early CDs I bought, back around 1989. So, I have the original Mercury version and haven't yet bought the remastered version. I do have the MFSL version, however. How does the remastered version compare to the MFSL disc?

 

[Kirk Gunn]

In recognition of this momentous occassion, I'd like to recommend everyone read the book "Anthem" by Ayn Rand. It is the basis of the album and an intense read.

While not the typical Sci-Fi, action, shoot-em-up novel, it is very philisophic and engaging (A philosophy entwined in most of Peart's lyrics). Rand's writing style is intense, and she wastes no words on fluff. Not an author you can just skim through sitting by the pool....
