Yes, I've had similar experience, and agree. Honestly in some settings
I think I would prefer that seating.
I never did see Rush, but they were never one of my favorites anyway. I
do like some of their music, but not the majority of it, and not even
exactly sure why. Might be the voice tone I guess.
