Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: Rush is one of rock's most influential bands. Ranked third in consecutive gold or platinum albums after The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, the band enjoys a devoted following by legions around the world and is revered by generations of musicians. Yet, their incredible success story has, up to this point, remained largely untold. Now comes the new documentary Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage, the first comprehensive exploration of the extraordinary power trio. Featuring never-before-seen archival footage and interviews with notables such as Jack Black, Billy Corgan, Trent Reznor, Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters), Kirk Hammett (Metallica) and Gene Simmons, this film explores the forty-year career and phenomenon behind what could be the world's biggest cult band. This Blu-ray DVD in deluxe packaging features over 3 hours of video, including a 1.5 hour bonus disc of never-before-seen live performances, special features, and deleted scenes from the film. A 12 page color booklet of rare and unreleased photos is also included.

Customer Reviews
The RUSH! Story You Always Wished For
This documentary provides rare views into the personalities and interaction of Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee and Neil Peart, while giving the viewer a unique perspective of the making of a 70's rock and roll band and the evolution that has made RUSH! such a success and joy for fans nearly 40 years later. I'm a dedicated RUSH! fan since first hearing "2112" blister my ears while working in a record store. Every new album is much anticipated, and never dissappointing. However, I'm not insanely fanatic - about anyone (unlike some of the fans interviewed in the film who hit multiple shows each tour). I'd have to say the RUSH! has been my favorite band because they are always there, always intriguingly creative and fresh. I've always had a connection with them and felt that they were MY band. This film showed me that I'm not the only fan that feels this way. It is definately a film for all RUSH! fans, but most importantly it is a film for all Rock and Roll fans from the 70's - this will take you back to argueably one of the most dominant eras in Rock and Roll history. Rock on guys, eh!!!

A must have for fans. A very interesting movie for non-fans
The movie is fabulous. Nice interviews with big names from the rock scene. Neil opens his heart and Alex steals the show. It also has amazing footage from the early years, including videos (yes: videos!) from Alex's and Neil's pre-Rush youth. Non-fans may also like it, since the three guys are really funny - specially when they get together. I definitely recommend it.

Relive the Rush turn on !
This is a must have for the Rush fan or Rock and Roll collector. I recomend this DVD also to the fans of WMMS in Cleveland where it really all got big!

Very Good and Interesting
Wow! Very good documentary and of Rush to boot. Very riveting, we learned a lot about Rush and like/respect them even more than we did before watching this video.
Thanx Rush for the wonderful music in my childhood(late 70's, Farewell to Kings, etc) and for Witchhunt- my W. Bush song. There is no hope.
