Snakes & Arrows DVD clip

Someone's uploaded a bit of VH! Classic's Rush Hashana from the other day and included the Fary Cry video from the upcoming DVD:

Looking good. Release date is November 25.

Snakes & Arrows Tour Comes to and End

Well, after more than a year and over 100 shows, the Snakes & Arrows tours came to an end last night in Indianapolis. I imagine they guys will take at least six months off before even considering any new studio work. Word is the Atlanta show was filmed for inclusion as bonus material for the upcoming Snakes & Arrows Live DVD, due out some time this year.

From the Winnipeg Free Press:
The members of Canadian rock band Rush have donated $100,000 from the sale of tickets to last weekend's Winnipeg concert to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. The three band mates -- Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart -- also announced today they will be selling museum T-shirts at all of the remaining Canadian stops on their Snakes and Arrows Live concert tour, and donating all of the proceeds from those sales to the museum's $105-million private sector fund-raising campaign. "My band mates and I are proud to be associated with the creation of a Canadian Museum of Human Rights in Winnipeg," Lee said in a written statement.
Quite cool! Word is that the shirts are already available for sale at the shows. Not sure if they'll have them for the US dates.

Second Leg of Snakes and Arrows Tour Underway

Rush launched the second leg of the Snakes and Arrows tour in Puerto Rico last Friday, April 11. Setlist is similar, but not exactly the same. No big surprises, though.

Rush on Rockline

According to Blabbermouth.net, Rush will be on Rockline on Wednesday, April 30 at 11:30 pm EST. I imagine it'll be Geddy and Alex and not Neil. Check Rockline's site to find a station near you.
