Might I suggest coming into http://plug.dj/musicbanter/

It's a chatroom where everybody gets a chance to play a song in turn. It's a lot of fun and if you're in with me I could play some Rush stuff to see if you'd like it, plus you might hip me to some new stuff too. A lot of us hang out there, usually in the evenings (stateside)

Nothing beats Moving Pictures... Except maybe 2112... Except maybe Fly By Night...

Definetly favour 2112!

I can't narrow it down to one, I'll go with Hemispheres, A Farewell To Kings, and Caress Of Steel. Caress Of Steel is one that has grown on me over the years although I do have some great memories of listening to it back in high school - you've got Bastille Day, Lakeside Park,The Fountain of Lamneth and The Necromancer.The Necromancer pt 3 The Return of the Prince - my favorite solo by Alex, hands down. Such a great, great band.

Almost impossible choice... But my favorite one is A Farewell To Kings... Come on... "Cygnus X-1, Book I: The Voyage"!!!!

Permanent Waves.

I'm a big fan of the old stuff, mainly the 70's era but up to and including Moving Pictures, maybe even Signals. It is really hard to pick one favorite, it'd be between Hemispheres and A Farewell To Kings I guess.

Caress of Steel
Permanent Waves
Power Windows
Clockwork Angels

And pretty much all of the others. Been spinning and enjoying Grace Under Pressure a lot lately.
