This was shot in the east end of Toronto in an area called Scarborough. The high school is L'amoreaux Collegiate on Warden Ave At Bridletown Circle. There are no shots of the twin towers.
@3intimid8or Right on! I'm so glad this was high school time for me. My daughter said if anybody at school had that t-shirt on now, they'd be sent to the office, then sent home. RULES, RULES, RULES. This shirt means I just went to the coolest concert last night. It doesn't mean I'm going to become someone bad.
Just think. All the people in this video are 45 now, but still 19 in mind.
@dj6927 My drummer friend had a "starman" shirt on a ton of times. People don't seem to care. He also wore a Led Zepplin shirt on that also had a nude person on the front....Luckly our school didn't care.
When I was a kid I use to listen to Rush, they are the most amazing group, I grew up in Toronto, and drove from North york to downtown toronto.
I parked my car, and came back 5 minutes later with a 40 dollar parking ticket.
Thats toronto. The biggest criminal is the government. you will not be mugged in Toronto
At least if your mugged you have a chance to run away. If you have a parking ticket, you will not win, even if you fight it and win, you still lose. Time off work, parking etc..
@Xrball idk but it's about a kid in high school who is socially isolated. Alex and Geddy were sorta like the losers of their school, so they may draw inspiration from personal experiences
Don't get me wrong but since i knew Rush first from Tom Sawyer i like it the best. Don't get it like"Oh this guy thinks the best rush song is Tom Sawyer no effin way" I have been a fan for a very long time i know there is other awesome Rush songs out there Tom Sawyer is the best one for me because thats the first song i heard from Rush. I also love Xanadu, Anthem, Far cry, Everything from Moving Pictures, Spirit of the radio, Fly by Night... And others just waiting to be named on to my long list
@bassgroove21 A "troll" is a creature that is a big part of Norwegian fairytales. Search for "eventyr troll" in Google pictures, and see! (Eventyr = fairytale in Norwegian)
you won my subscription just for the username. and since someone commented on how there are never arguments on rush vids im going to start one on which rush song is best. i say red barchetta.
@Inebriation23 he writes all the lyrics, not the music, and the "subdivisions" part is from a radio show back in the day. i dont remember exactly which one though
@freddiefernandez nope its not neil or alex, it's canadian city tv news anchor mark dailey, someone asked him in an interview about it not long ago and he barely remembers it but its him though.
Why not more hits on this vid? I drove around for 4months is '82 with this cassette in my Dad's Ford Truck while moving the Grandparents. Either Rush or AM 1600 KJET. Men with Hats and Billy Idol always seemed to have been playing. Long Live The Kings of Rock- RUSH
