I will go to see them in Vegas for the second time in 2 friggin days...2 FRIGGIN DAYS!!!! and get this.... Deep Purple is playing Thursday.... FRIGGIN DEEP PURPLE!! Man, middle aged dudes acting like 14 year old boys....too much effing good times goin' on!!
Rush supported Hawkwind? Wow. You mean I could have seen the two best bands ever together? But if I had I'd be over 50 now, and from Illinois.
The early and mid seventies had some great music. How did it go so wrong with punk? What kind of person would prefer music created by mindless idiots who can't play compared to Rush and Hawkwind? The idiots I went to school with.
I HEAR YOU bassnebula!!!!!!!!!!! I too share the same experience you do,and that Rush has instilled positive input into my life. Lifelong fan since the Begining. I'm convinced that had the whole world had listened to RUSH, IT WOULD BE IN BETTER SHAPE! ... REALLY!!!!!!!!!
The audio from this is actually from the 11/15/1975 Rockford Armory show (Rockford, IL) when Rush opened for KISS. This is bad ass footage...perhaps some of the oldest Rush footage floating around the net. Thanks so much for posting this.

Hawkwind, a great underrated band. Dave Brock, Bob Calvert and a few others... great lineup.
