You know, as this banter goes on, it starts to feel more and more like an episode of Hey Arnold where Power Windows is Arnold, and Tim is Helga.

What's Hey Arnold?

(I'm actually not kidding...)

It will come as no surprise to anyone that this one went way over my head too.

[HOF]

I know what Hey Arnold is but have never watched it.

Helga is the girl who constantly bullies and antagonizes Arnold in order to hide the fact that she’s secretly in love with him.

What were you doing watching Nick in the 90's for??

I remember a few Nick 90's shows that my stepson watched..Rugrats, Keenan & Kel, The Amanda Show, but I've never seen Hey Arnold.

I'm going to reserve judgement on "famous", but thanks for the rest!   

[pg1067]

I'm sure I'll remember something as soon as I hit "post," but the only cartoons I've watched since I was a kid are Pinky and the Brain, the occasional Animaniacs episode and whatever I watched with my kids.

My son was born in ‘92.  I saw a lot of cool cartoons in the late 90s early 00s. Invader Zim, Cow and Chicken, Cat Dog, Angry Beavers. Johnny Bravo…and I think Ed, Edd, and Eddy was around that time too.

Famous enough for the first movie to be an actual theatrical release.

Ah, OK. I don't remember you mentioning kids before.

Hard to believe the 90s were that long ago. He just turned 29 at the end of last year and he’s living in Florida with his bride of a year and 3 months and they are expecting my first grandchild next month.

That's awesome Ben!

Other than Kim Possible, that whole era is lost on me.

Awesome interview!  Still such fun and great guys.

Amazon says my boxed set was delivered. So I texted my wife to verify.

She responded: “it’s here…and it’s really heavy”

I’m so freaking excited! I can’t wait to get home!

Did you also get the big super deluxe box set? I got mine in a few days ago and I can confirm, it is HUGE and REALLY HEAVY. Probably the heaviest box set I own for any single release.

It's also the most expensive box set I have ever seen, not sure if the actual content is worth the price?

Yup! Can’t wait to see the goodies.

It’s not my favorite Rush album (in fact, I was really disappointed with the Hemispheres box) but MP was the very first album I ever owned, and certainly represents that moment I fell in love with the band.

I listened to this at work this afternoon. Very nice!  I always thought Geddy seemed aggravated about Rush coming to an end in 2015, and he basically confirmed it, but he seems to have made peace with it.  It's clear how crushing the loss of Neil was for both. 

[jammindude]

Just checking out bits and pieces of live at YYZ and it is really incredible!

Personally, I think the sound is so much better than exit stage left. And that’s my favorite live rush album. I also  think this may be the only live recording we will ever hear of Natural Science in its original arrangement.

There was a live recording of it in its original form on the Permanent Waves 40th Anniversary release. 🙂

Yeah, that was a real nice interview. Love listening to these guys talk.

I keep thinking - I know Neil had a fantastic life doing what he loved the most, at the highest level, so obviously it's hard to deny he was overall such a "lucky", successful guy - but why couldn't he just have the chance to enjoy his years with his family as the retired, at peace, happy man he was? Makes me so sad

Right. That was first, this was last. 

Seriously though, I seem to remember that the entire live disc from that set was very subpar. On this one, they are really on fire!

Gave it one listen and it sounds pretty great!

[jammindude]

I just now realize that my OP said “only” I had intended to say “the last time”

EDIT - I know it sounds like I’m backpedaling, but honestly my brains have just been scrambled lately.

I hear ya. Sadly, life just isn't fair sometimes.  But I am guessing Neil took his last breath pretty content with the impact he left off on the music world.  His rep as a music legend is set in stone, stones ironically enough that we can hold while air drumming.

So the Moving Pictures 40th Anniversary edition contains a full concert?

[The Letter M]

So the Moving Pictures 40th Anniversary edition contains a full concert?

Yes, the Live In YYZ 1981 is a complete concert taken from two of the three nights at their Toronto gigs on the MP Tour.

I've given it a full spin and it's amazing! Close and similar to ESL for the song they took from the MP Tour, but there are subtle differences as well!

-Marc.

[TAC]

If that's the case, I'm considering buying it. $26 is steep, but I can swing it.


I wonder why the other anniversary shows don't include full shows. I want a full concert, not bits and pieces.

[Kram]

So the Moving Pictures 40th Anniversary edition contains a full concert?

Yes, the Live In YYZ 1981 is a complete concert taken from two of the three nights at their Toronto gigs on the MP Tour.

Is it one complete show all the way through?  Or did they mix and match songs from two shows?

I'd even be fine with that if it's the complete setlist.
