	Rush In Rio DVD review
		Other than The Police, Rush is probably the most famous and respected power trio in all of rock and roll, but on the night of November 23, 2002, during the final show of the Vapor Trails tour at Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Rush had about 40,000 extra members in the band.
		All Rush fans are aware of the tragedies drummer Neil Peart suffered five years ago, with the loss of both his 19-year-old daughter (in a car accident) and wife (from cancer) in a span of one year.
		Rush has a few video collections from previous tours and a video collection of some of their music videos, but this is by far the best representation of the complete live Rush experience from start to end and everything in between.

	Metal Coven Webzine - DVD Metal DVD Reviews - Rush - Rush In Rio
		Rush In Rio (also released on CD) is a fantastic document of their first-ever tour of Brazil.
		Recorded at Rio de Janiero's legendary Maracana soccer stadium on 11/23/02, Rush In Rio is the perfect way to experience all the subtleties and nuances of the legendary Canadian band.
		Rush has released several concert videos over the years, but Rush In Rio puts them all to shame.

	Rush: Rush in Rio [DVD] - PopMatters Music Review
		Despite numerous problems with a tropical storm during their stay, the band was able to film the third show in Rio de Janeiro, and the resulting two-disc DVD is the definitive live document Rush fans have been craving for decades.
		But when Rush took the stage, mere minutes after their road crew had finished setting things up at 10 PM, and that unmistakable opening synth note of "Tom Sawyer" kicked in, it was smooth sailing for the rest of the night.
		Rush in Rio is a masterful live recording, superbly packaged (complete with some very well-written notes by Peart), and proves that, though these guys have now turned 50, they're still a much more potent live band than most young artists out there today.

	Rush In Rio CD review
		Once Rush recorded arguably their most successful song, “Tom Sawyer,” it has become almost a given that it will be on most of Rush’s live albums or videos because it is played at every show without fail.
		The instrumental “La Villa Strangiato” has shown up on many live Rush albums and videos since the release of their Hemispheres album and excerpts from the first side of the album 2112 have seemingly been on all of the live Rush albums since it was recorded in 1976.
		The Rush In Rio performance came from the 2002 tour for their latest studio album, Vapor Trails.

		For the hardened Rush fan Rush In Rio will certainly find its way into the by now large collection and as a companion to the forthcoming triple live album also drawn from the same source this DVD is damn near perfect and probably amongst the best rock DVD releases this year
		Rush In Rio is the first concert DVD from a band whose career stretches back to 1973.
		Rush In Rio was filmed in the famous Maracana Stadium in Rio De Janeiro in November 2002 at the end of the successful Vapour Trails tour.

		And the fastest way to do this would be to watch Rush in Rio, for while it was the Chronicles compilation that made me a fan of Rush, it was this DVD that helped make them probably my favorite band of all time and motivated me to buy most of their albums.
		Rush apparently never really knew how popular they were in South America, but this time they added some dates south of the equator for the first time in their history.
		Rush has always been about the music more than putting on a crazy show, so don't expect a lot of running around the stage and trying to act “cool.” Do expect, however, an extremely energetic crowd and some truly great performances.

	UGO.com Music - DVD Review - Rush
		Unfortunately, though perhaps inevitably, the Rush: R30 - 30th Anniversary World Tour DVD cannot be reviewed on its own terms following so close on the heels of the Rush in Rio DVD, as there are barely two years between their releases.
		Rush in Rio was the band's first full-throttle DVD - a chronicle of their glorious Vapor Trails tour - and a flawed one, at that.
		Rush in Rio succeeded in capturing the excitement and energy of Rush's first show since the '96-'97 Test for Echo tour.

	PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY DAVID CISCO
		Rush In Rio is Rush’s latest live release that documents the last concert of the Vapor Trails tour in Rio de Janeiro Brazil, available in 3-CD and 2-DVD sets.
		That’s because Rush found a previously untapped fan base in Brazil, an incredibly enthusiastic multitude that demonstrated their love for Rush by showing up in huge numbers (60,000 in Sao Paulo, the Rush attendance record) and in turn inspired the band to really play their hearts out.
		Rush fans like me, are already streaming into the stores to get Rush In Rio and, entre nous, you should, too.

		Rush in Rio is a live album by Canadian band Rush, released in 2003 (see 2003 in music).
		The album was recorded at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro and was the final concert on the Vapor Trails tour.

	DVD Times - Rush - R30
		Recorded in Frankfurt, Germany on 24 September 2004, Rush R30 has a quite different tracklisting from the pervious Rush In Rio set (the band have plenty of exceptional material to make any number of strong sets from) and the show was recorded using 14 hi-definition cameras in 16:9 widescreen format.
		The show uses less cameras than Rush In Rio, but they are well placed and unobtrusive, avoiding too many quick cuts and they have no effects applied other than the occasional dissolve, picking up the right angles and focus for each song.
		Rush in Rio peaked at number one on Billboards DVD chart and has gone on to sell triple platinum - this is in no way the result of any sort of boycott from fans.

	DVD Verdict Review - Rush: Rush In Rio
		Recorded in 2003 at the band's very last show in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, this document to dedication, this testament to tenacity and temerity, is like visual energy: one viewing and you are suddenly filled with the hyperactive heart of this stalwart band.
		Rush in Rio is a wonderful experience, the kind of concert you wish you could have attended in your youth.
		Rush in Rio is that rarity, a concert film that actually compels you to become a fan, to experience the same heartfelt passion that those enthusiasts of Canada's greatest rock act do.

	Rush - In Rio
		The Rio concert was the final concert of a string of 66 concerts spread between june to november 2002.
		Because Rush has been going strong for thirty years no doubt from a physical perspective these kind of gigs are very demanding so it’s not a big surprise to see that the band’s set is divided in two halves so as to allow the band to have a short break.
		Contrary to the “Different stages live” 3CD set where the third disc contained material from a completely different concert, disc three in the “Rush in Rio” set continues the show with what seems to be six of the band’s alltime highs.

	DVD Times - Rush - Rush in Rio
		'Rush in Rio' captures the last date of that tour, filmed at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on 23 November 2002, in front of an ecstatic audience of 60,000 fans and is a superb document of that tour for all those who missed out.
		As a Rush fan for almost 25 years, it would surely be considered a dereliction of duty to give the performance here anything less than a 10 marking, but I think it is a fair score as I can’t see any fan of the band being the slightest bit disappointed with the show here.
		Rush have always catered to their fans in their live shows, featuring as many of their 'classics' as possible and there are tracks from almost every one of Rush’s 17 studio albums included here.

		RUSH "IS" Alex Lifeson, who plays about 100 guitars on stage, Neil Peart, who plays on more drums than a human really needs in his drumkit, and Geddy Lee, who plays practically every electronic gizmo not used by the other two.
		Rush in Rio is one of only 2 concert DVDs I've ever seen where the electricity of actually seeing a band live is carried across (the other is AC/DC at Donington).
		Rush's musician fans(of which there are many) will be delighted at the YYZ and La Villa Strangiato multiangle selections, which let you focus on one of the three band members.

	Rush In Rio
		After 30 years the tours may now be further apart, cover fewer venues, and the shows grown from 40 minute support slots to 3 hour marathons, yet the importance of the live experience for Rush, and their fans, remains.
		The result is the first live Rush album to be released on DVD, along with an accompanying triple CD, “Rush In Rio”.
		As a band, Rush have always drawn a hard line between their professional lives as musicians and band members, and their personal lives.

	Rush In Rio
		However, after listening to the rough mixes from the concert video Rush in Rio, we felt we had something special, even as a purely musical document of the Vapor Trails tour, which had meant so much to us, personally and professionally.
		For the final show, in Rio de Janeiro, it seemed we summoned an extra surge of adrenaline, knowing that this was the last one, and that it was being recorded and filmed.
		Rain came and went during setup on the afternoon of the Rio show, and the trucks arrived so late from Sao Paulo that the crew didn't start loading in until six or seven hours later than usual.

		Well Rush didn't have enough time after they landed to do a sound check, and many of the sounds had to be "rescued".
		Rush were one of my favourite bands in the '80s (I saw them when they were touring on the back of Hold Your Fire), but their '90s output didn't really tickle my fancy.

		This is especially hard to take from a band like Rush, who pride themselves on their perfection in the studio and in the live setting.
		The contrasts between them are obvious, but one thing they have in common is that each of them has deliberately attempted, with at least intermittent success, to achieve a measure of self-transcendence through their music.
		The difference is that whereas the Dead tried to do it through 'ego-death' (aided by under-the-counter pharmaceuticals that in several cases helped to render them biologically dead as well), Rush does it consciously, intellectually, and 'individualistically', keeping their egos intact, healthy, and sane in the process.

	Rush : Rush in Rio - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		This is the sound of a band going for it in spite of everything and on the wing -- and the sound, very live, very real, extremely dynamic -- and not only do they pull it off; they issue their best live outing ever.
		Seeing Rush live can be an experience, but only those people in Rio saw them like this: far from complacent veteran rock stars, they musically push their own envelopes to the breaking point and goad each other onto ever greater intensity.
		For those for whom Rush is a secret and guilty pleasure, it's time to indulge it openly by playing this for friends who erroneously insist that Sonic Youth or Strokes concert bootlegs are the epitome of "big-label live rock." For the faithful, you'll know.

		Principally recorded at the Maracana Stadium, in Rio de Janiero, Brazil, on November 23, 2002.

		Rush played Rio de Janeiro at the end of their "Vapor Trails" tour, to about a quarter of a million insanely enthusiastic fans.
		Iron Maiden's "Rock in Rio" was excellent because of that, and the same goes for Rush.
		Rush is one of the finest bands around today, even though I guess they don't amount to much in the 'grand scheme' of MTV, radio and popular music in general.

		Eighteen songs out of a total of thirty one already surfaced on the band’s previous live album, yet judging from the crowd’s enthusiasm, they really don’t mind, as every single Rush concert is a unique experience in itself.
		Rush dove right in to the deep end, not knowing whether at all they would be able to swim!
		Although Rush's music is not your everyday cup of tea, the audience nevertheless knows every single chord, every single break, every single word, which of course makes this recording extra special, as you get the music from Rush augmented with a fourth member: the public!

		It's clear on any Rush song that you're hearing three great musicians (two of them up there with the best in the business) but nothing they did was overly show-offy.
