RUSH To Receive Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame - June 19, 2008

Canadian rock trio RUSH will get a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. Thanks to the efforts of its fans, spearheaded by Donna Halper — the woman who is credited with discovering RUSH while working at WMMS-FM in Cleveland back in 1974 — RUSH is one of 25 recipients chosen by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce's Walk of Fame Committee to be enshrined in 2009.

RUSH recently donated $100,000 from the sales of tickets to its concert in Winnipeg, Canada to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, according to the Winnipeg Free Press. Bassist and singer Geddy Lee said in a statement, "My band mates and I are proud to be associated with the creation of a Canadian Museum of Human Rights in Winnipeg. Canadians are uniquely positioned to be leaders in championing such causes, and we applaud the efforts of the Asper family in making this museum a reality." The group will also sell museum T-shirts at all the remaining Canadian dates on its current tour, with all the proceeds also going to the museum's fundraising campaign.

It is about time that Rush received an honor like this. Snakes & Arrows is one of the best albums they ever have put out and having seen them live last September and a few weeks back, they still rock live.

Congratulations to Geddy, Alex and Neil.
