They're from Canada where it's super cold so they have to rock super hard to keep warm.

A good decade earlier than this episode, my older brother was a Rush fanatic.  He played their albums loudly at all times of the night, so therefore I LOATHED them.  I hated Geddy Lee's high-pitched voice and I thought he looked like a really ugly bird.  UGH - this episode brought back some very bad memories of some very heated arguments between me and my brother.

This episode was funny, but I was confused at the end when the girls "looked" like The Cure. I actually thought they were dressed like Culture Club (Boy George). Everything else seemed pretty accurate.

This show always brings a smile to my face at the end; the nostalgia runs strong in me for 1/2 hour every week.

 

I think we've all had times when we've kissed questionable people in high school. I know I have! I felt for Erica because there's something alluring about a person who introduces you to something new and awesome, no matter how creepy/sleezy they are.

Erica's stubbornness abound! She really is Murray's daughter!

Man, Rush was so lame when I was in school.  We were all about Def Leppard.

I saw Rush in 1985 when I was in high school. Still one of the best concerts I've been to.

Sadly, it looks like their 2015 40th Anniversary tour will be their last due to health issues.

This might be the saddest two sentences I have ever read!

Aww, man, Rush members have arthritis and tendonitis. That's just wrong.

I thought this episode was one the best the series, I loved it.

Huge Rush fan here, as evidenced by my user name!

I hated Geddy Lee's high-pitched voice

The other day I was listening to some 70s Rush and the look on my dog's face implied that she didn't care much for his voice either LOL.  Sadly for me, Geddy can't do the high-pitched thing anymore (I do love all versions of his voice though).

You aren't kidding!

[Traveller519]

Heh, if my Dad is to be believed he went to High School with Neil. Age and location make sense.

Drawing on your Keds--I did that!

They made fun of Adam's dancing at the party, but Dave Kim was keeping up with him.

I always feel so bad when the kids repeatedly use Beverly only to discard her mere moments later.
