April 2nd, 1994 - Nuts and Bolts (Madison)

The famous Nuts and Bolts show, sometimes brought up as the best Rush bootleg out there, and I know why it has that title. Counterparts is up there in my top tours, so hearing it in such amazing quality is awesome. This show was also the first bootleg I ever heard, so it set the bar pretty high. The sound is just great, better than a live show in some aspects. Everything is well balanced. The bass sounds nice and punchy, the snare is as crisp as ever. The guitar also finds a really balance between present and over powered. The only "negative" is that there is little to no crowd noise for most of the show, but that's not something that takes away from the show completely. This is a great boot for those that just want the best, good sounding shows. It's an amazing soundboard that is widely considered one of the best, but I do miss crowd noise, makes me feel as if it's a studio recording with a live feel to the instruments. 9.9/10

June 23rd, 1997 - Great Woods and Summer Skies - Rush

Wow, I hate to be Mr. Excuses lately, but midterm studying has me pinned down, I wish I had more time to indulge in my side hobby here, but I just don't. So I'll try to get out what I can, when I can. This is an amazing show. It's a soundboard recording that sounds amazing, 2112 and Leave That Thing Alone! are the same version that are on "Different Stages" (http://www.amazon.com/Different-Stages-Rush/dp/B00000DGV2) but the sound is better some how on this version. The sound is practical official studio quality and is truly a great addition to anyone's collection. It feature the full Test for Echos track list (to my knowledge) with the amazing full version of 2112 that makes me happy on the inside. Amazing show, anyone who likes Rush bootlegs of any kind need to get this show.

September 27th, 1984 - Cool Under Fire - Rush

This is a soundboard show from Grace Under Pressure. It has really great sound overall. The snare is nice and crisp, the bass guitar and bass drum both sound nice. The guitar is present, but not to loud, which I like in a show. The sound quality is great, but it fells a little dry, and it wasn't the best night for the band either, witch Alex's guitar going out in Red Barchetta, and Geddy slipped up a few times, but it's not that big of a deal. But never the less, it's a great show, and one you have to get if you love good soundboards. 320kbps CBR 8.5/10

March 1st, 1981 - Mystery Eyes - Rush

I was gone all week for Thanksgiving, but I got home two days ago and have been doing a bunch of bootleg work, so there is a lot more to come. Starting off with this show from the Moving Pictures tour, the audio is really good, but I'm almost positive this show is a copy of Exit... Stage Right (Which I'll have up at some point, ask if you want it soon). The boot has really loud bass, overwhelming amounts of bass that make it kind of hard to listen to if you're not one of those bass-crazy people that can't have enough. There is a lot of bass, but the boot still isn't bad, it's a nice show that you should pick up if the tracklist interests you, but there are better boots from this tour out there. Not amazing, not bad, it's just decent. 320kbps CBR. 6.5/10
