Rush - Beyond the Lighted Stage [2 DVD] Best Review
Ever since I picked up 2112 in 1976 at a Kerr Drug store in Cary NC at the tender age of 14 I've been mesmerized with this band. I've always wondered back then through A Farewell to Kings, Hemispheres, etc. who these guys really were and from 'Canada'? I use to sit night after night listening to their albums throughout middle school and high school. I did lose some interest in the 'keyboard' years as I believe others had, but in 1989 while in Grad school I picked up Presto and it was like meeting old friends again. This movie showed me things I never knew about these guys. I thought it was great to see their parents in the movie. It really brings home the fact these 3 guys are really just regular guys who wanted to play music. I was the same way many years ago, but never pursued it, but at least I could live it through Geddy, Alex and Neil. Been waiting for a documentary on this band and this hits a home run.

One of the best documentaries ever made... - Jason Lockridge - Birmingham, AL United States
Humble beginnings, strong friendships, and a work ethic beyond "dedicated" turned Rush into the true "Rock Supergroup". Straddling the line between "progressive" and "rock", they've taken us on a journey over 30 years in the making, and show no signs of slowing down.
I won't rehash what has been written here, but---you simply have to see this documentary if you're a fan of ANY kind of music. Young, old, musician, non-musican, aspiring musician---all will be awed and impressed by both the humility and the skill of these three men and their no-compromise approach and willingness to let down their guards (at least Ged and Lexrst, anyways---the Professor, well, will always be "guarded", and that'll never change). Following them through their lives with input from their parents and seeing how they developed is inspiring.
Just get it. You'll not be disappointed.
