RUSH - Official MySpace Page Up And Running...Again
October 7, 2007, 17 years ago
RUSH fansite RushIsABand.com has issued the following update:
"You may recall last summer when Rush launched an official MySpace page. They eventually took it down because they weren't satisfied with the look of it and were planning on relaunching it when they had Rush.com revamped. Back in March the new revamped Rush.com was launched to coincide with the Far Cry release, but there was still no new Rush on MySpace. Well it looks like those sneaky guys at Rush.com have had the MySpace page up for some time now (since May it looks like) but never really advertised it; it completely fell under my radar at least. It's even linked over at Rush.com (just go to the Mailing List section). You can visit the site at www.myspace.com/officialrush. It's nothing too spectacular; it has a few songs posted and the tour dates listed.Thanks to UltimoGuitarist over at Counterparts for the heads up."
As previously reported, last year Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson, along with about 90 other Canadian celebrities, participated in a project of The Kidney Foundation of Canada called A Brush of Hope. The celebrities created paintings (Lifeson's from last year is shown left) which were eventually sold on eBay, garnering over $16,000 for the charity. According to a news posting on Rush.com, Lifeson will again be participating in the project.
