<< I was recently lamenting the absence of stupid, overblown crap like Styx or ELP or Rush. >>

"absence"? i know that Rush just released a live show (SARSstock in Toronoto earlier this year) in MP3 on their website. [NOTE: i did not download this, but the Film Critic for my site is a huge Rush fan, and he was going on about it....]

Rush's DVD of the Rio concert will be released soon as well. Saw show in SF - it was ok, but too much old/slow stuff. After such a great/strong album (I rate Vapor Trails even with Moving Pictures as my favorites from them, with Power Windows a current 2nd - changes w/what I'm into at moment), it was disappointing that they did not do more of the material from it on tour.

<< Does anyone here like Psychic TV? >>

they have such a wide variety of stuff out there -- some of it great, some tedious. i like some of it...

Yup. A lot of it REALLY BAD.

<< I'm one of those people that really loved Towards Thee Infinite Beat. >>

Helll, yes. Peak Hour is also a great one. T _________________________________________________________________ High-speed Internet access as low as $29.95/month (depending on the local service providers in your area). Click here. https://broadband.msn.com
