I used to get obsessed with bands. Like the definition of obsessed.
In high school I went through a huge Beatles and Dylan stage. Every Saturday I would by a Beatles CD, then Sunday I'd buy an early Dylan CD.
Then Nirvana.
Then I went through a Allman Brothers, Rolling Stones, Grateful Dead into David Bowie stage. That frontier lasted about 10/15 years.
Over the years I've tried to get into this maniac obsession with other bands but they didn't have the catalog that I needed to qualify as complete obsession. Ex: JJ Cale, Black Crowes, Buckethead.
So I had really given up and thought at age 46, you're done discovering new/old stuff.
Until.... I found 2112. Where has this been my entire life. Sure I was more than aware of Tom Sawyer and Limelight. But I had no idea this band was this good. Then weeks after 2112, I find, Beyond the Gilded Cage on The Netflix. I seriously couldn't blink.
I even listen to 80's RUSH at work. That's true obsession.
Anyway, it's like I'm 17 again and I literally can't get enough. I forgot I could feel this way about bands, and I certainly forgot I used to feel this way. What an escape ...
So tell me anything you know or like or hate about this band. I just want to talk about RUSH all day.
Or even bands you got completely obsessed over.
