Rush has not played in front of a live TV audience for 30+ years in the US. Egad!
The band put their last tour on FabChannel, here it is. This is one of the best bands right now on the prog scene.

Wow, these guys are amazing! Clearly my current favorite band! They qualify as “progressive metal”, so if you like Porcupine Tree, Rush, Dream Theatre and Voivod you’re at the right place. They do long songs in general, conceptual or theme albums, insturmental tracks (see YouTube clip below) and are available on Amazon.com/.ca (oh joy!).
Clearly great songwriters, great musicians, and you have to listen to their albums from start to end, like you’d listen to Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd.
Again, my thanks to Last.FM and their similar artists process, I’m discovering a lot of great bands otherwise would not have access to.
