    Seeing and hearing those young folks handling progressive rock with such soul and dedication gives me hope on the future of music... not everything is lost !
    That was a brilliant performance, you can be proud of you. But must remain focused on working, and working again.

      I've been doing all ages metal/rock minifests for a year now, specifically for this age audience and performers. The kids these days are MILES ahead of us. I've had first timer bands that were absolutely ready to just go on the road, as far as talent goes. New learning methods, having access to multitrack recording equipment with so little money, education.. Of course one thinks what if we had all that but.. things being better is not wrong. Also: the audience has been amazing. We were little shits at that age, we have had zero problems while having more audience in all ages than in our "R" rated stuff. We have safe space rules, and the little bastards fucking respect that.
      10/10 experience, this generation of rockers fucking just rock. I'm in the local live music association, our mission is to "plug the holes" when it comes to live music, if something is not supplied by commercial forced or by "the government" we will do it, we are celebrating our 45th year now. The idea of organizing all ages events came from the teens. They just don't have places to watch live music, so.. since we are old fucks we now have the resources to do it, we have the space, the equipment needed to do it, the staff required.. and it has been a success that has been recognized nationally. Other cities are now copying us. So.. organizing gigs for this generation might be something that has demand but no supply in your hometown. It would be AWESOME if that idea would spread. It really has been eye opening for a 50 year old veteran, my first real interaction with this generation. There is future, not just in music.

    There have been quite a few people, young-ish and older-ish who have the ability to live in the ZIP code of Alex's, Neil's and Geddy's instrument talent. But Geddy's vocals...Now that's a nut that no male i have heard, at least on YT, has cracked. A decent number of females can, but it's not a challenge for them and it comes across as they sing.
    That said, kudos!
