Well, hello and welcome back for Part 2 of our interview with Steve Brown and Eóin de Paor of Moving Pictures Scotland, RUSHfest Scotland, RUSHfest Canada, ,and OG Original RushCon'er and RushRasher since way, way back, Paul Beaulieu of Canadian Music Scene.
At this point, we've already met and had a quick chat with Terry Brown, who's making coffee for Paul, and had a blast talking to the guys. In this episode, we getmore:
- Playing with Rocky and Ben from Mood Lifters
- The inside scoop on Xanadu being sped up - from Terry Brown himself
- What it’s like to record at legendary Welsh studio Rockfield Studios.
- Geddy’s unorthodox digga digga digga digga one-fingered bass playing technique
- What it's like being on the road full-time playing Rush songs all over the world
In true RushRash Wheel style, we get a significant work off 2012's Clockwork Angels, Seven Cities of Gold. A powerful track from the band at their zenith, and a swan-song that leaves little to debate when it comes time to vote.
As always we go to our song facts and insights from RushVault.com, and find out that our sponsor, Danforth & Pape, goes to Dream Theater events in the sharpest T-Shirt apparel! We also talk about the scratch list at length. So why wait - get to it - visit these links for all the latest dates to get your itch scratched somewhere near you!

Rush news, general nonsensical disorderly conduct, lack of regard for correctness or truth, and reckless endangerment of your whole-brain. This is the only podcast dedicated to increasing opioid release in your anterior insula, your anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and your posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), in addition to the basal ganglia and the thalamus...and all that that implies.
Some thick North Jersey accents and they give you some royalty-free sound effects and movie clips too - what more do you need to indulge your urge to scratch?! Join us - you know where to scratch - blah, blah...RushRash.
