    Today is just as it seems - Juliann (and you) will try to guess what Rush song Adam is playing poorly on the bass. No this isn't Adam trying to downplay his bass playing to subvert expectations - he really did play them poorly.
    Good luck!

Love where this is going

This show is less about song A is better/worse than song B and more about comparing the qualities and attributes of each. As a non-musician I find the interviews helpful. As a RUSH fan I find the struggle to choose….. do I have too? In the end no RUSH song looses, RUSH fans get to listen to RUSH and talk about it. Keep them coming
