I've always been partial to "R30" because it's got my favorite performance of 'Force Ten'. That's the song that ultimately drew me to Rush in the first place, and my love for that bass line will never die. It's crisp, clean and electrifying.But that just explains my personal bias. This is a Rush concert, after all, which means it opens like a beast with a sweeping overture and sets right to work on the diverse set list. Just as you'd expect. They even throw in a solid cover of The Who's 'The Seeker' for good measure. The band's signature precision is on full display during every minute of this thing. The production values are first-rate, too (some of the camera moves are very nice).They really put together a nice package.10/10

This year, Rush are 40, and a new DVD will be out soon - R40, but not yet, so we look back at R30 - when Rush were 30 years old and were great and perfect to the top. Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart do a tremendous show of all their imaginable Best Of material, starting with an excellent cartoon video, then going through the Medley of their earlier songs and then plunging headlong onto mesmerizing Spirit Of Radio. Each song is a highlight, and I especially recommend Neil's outstanding Drum Solo, which itself is a Suite of several parts and never drags or bores. Even later songs like Earthshine stand out well in comparison with earlier output and they prove that Rush's music will stand the test of time well. Geddy's impossible virtuosity sends me shivers every time I see him playing bass guitar, singing and operating his multiple pedals at the same time. A;ex is as usual cheerful and mighty, while Neil nails it down to make a perfect Trio of all times. 10 out of 10

I saw RUSH live in Chicago during this tour. This DVD captures the very best of that concert. The opening medley contains songs not heard live for years (including A Farewell to Kings and A Passage to Bangkok) Every time I watch this disk, I am awed by the musical virtuosity of Geddy, Alex, and Neil.The addition of the cover songs off of "Feedback" was, at the very least, brilliant. To pay homage to the bands they started out, in their infancy, covering in small clubs and bars was one of the highlights of this show. The sight of Alex tweaking Geddy's nose at the end of "The Seeker" is one of the reasons I keep replaying this DVD."Between the Wheels" was as much of a pleasant surprise as the absence of "The Trees" was a disappointment, but one must take the bad with the good.As someone said before me, just because you have "Rush in Rio" is no reason to not have this disk. I prefer the light show in this DVD to RIR, plus I like "Der Trommler" better than "Oh Batterista" (for which Neil garnered a Grammy nomination).Simply put, if you are a RUSH fan, this is a must have video.

I enjoyed this DVD quite a bit. Awesome live performances. The sound is tight and a lot better than Rush in Rio. There aren't as many screaming fans this time though.My favourite song easily is Subdivisions. Very well played and Geddy Lee's singing is top notch. A lot of the songs I didn't really like before, I grew to love because of this DVD. Rush should get a few awards. I always love to watch and hear them play live. They are pretty much the best live performers out there.Definitely a great addition to any music DVD collection. A must buy if you're a Rush fan or new to their music.10/10 it's the bomb.
