Bell, if my memory serves me right, Rush opened their concerts for three consecutive tours with Spirit of the Radio. That opening riff with a spotlight on Alex was such a cool way to start a show.

They do. It's like a 70s era rock band and they are great.

HA! My kid told me of this one as well. Sounds more like Zeppelin to me. Listen to the vocals

They are super versatile in that 70s rock genre. At times they sound like Zeppelin or Rush. Other times they sound like early Metallica. The lead singers range is incredible and they just have that rock and roll sound.
