This week on Rush Rash, Chaz and Schatz celebrate 50 years of 2112 with a very special guest—YouTube sensation and all-around Rush whisperer Mike Massé—who drops in (freshly fumigated from the Haggis Shack) to talk about his gorgeous new cover of “Tears.”

The guys dig into Mike’s creative process, from Mellotron patch-hunting to channeling Geddy’s extra-vibrato-when-you-feel-fancy technique, and why sometimes the internet is both your best friend and a chaotic dumpster fire of “release date truth.” (April 1st? March? WHO KNOWS—ROLL THE BONES.)

We also:

• Spin Mike’s stunning rendition of Tears in honor of 2112’s 50th
• Debate the actual release date like proper Rush nerds
• Take a wild detour into Beatles territory with Mike’s Rubber Soul tribute band
• Break down the Rush reunion performance (yes, THAT one)
• React in real-time like well behaved Cygnus-X1.Net Facebookers (we get into THAT too)

Plus:

• RushCon plans
• Touring chaos across the US, Europe, and beyond
• And the eternal question: Can you actually have too much Rush? (Spoiler: no, don’t be ridiculous.)

It’s just the right amount of unhinged—exactly how The Professor would want it.

Effin A, it's Cygnus X-1 Book Two: Hemispheres. Need we say more? The wheel has spoken - Cygnus X1.Net Facebookers - GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER. - NEP
