Alien_Shore	NON-TRADITIONAL BAND CONTINUES TO DRAW CROWDS By Lee GravesNews Leader special writer December 16, 1985 Publication: Richmond Times-Dispatch Page: 23 Word Count: 501 How do you explain the popularity of a band that never has depended on radio playing time, plays music you can't dance to, doesn't advocate life in the fast lane and ends a two-hour performance before 10:30 p.m.? It's not an easy question, but Rush has been filling concert halls for 11 years. And the power trio's blend of art rock, heavy metal and "high-tech" lighting drew more than 8,800 young fans to the Richmond Coliseum last night. Bassist Geddy Lee (also the band's singer and keyboardist), guitarist Alex Lifeson and drummer Neil Peart played more than 20 songs, including all but one from the current album, "Power Windows." The new material was consistently interesting, often impressive and sometimes compelling, but when played next to past zingers such as "The Spirit of Radio," "YYZ," "Tom Sawyer" and "In the Mood," it seemed ponderous and lacking in energy. A couple of exceptions were "The Big Money," which had a solid rock groove and some heart-felt singing by Lee, and "Manhattan Project." The latter, a song about the development of nuclear weapons, began with the stage bathed in red light while cartoons flashed on a screen behind Peart's drum riser. Spotlights searched the audience at one point, and the music built from Lifeson's understated guitar figures to a climax using what sounded like taped string instruments. Lee and Peart played with the precision and complexity that have become their trademarks. Using time signatures that would leave many rock musicians scratching their heads, these two guys hit syncopated accents so cleanly it sounded like one person playing both instruments. Peart's solo in "YYZ" had some nice touches, especially on the tom-toms. Lifeson's work on guitar, while not as flashy as that of virtuoso Steve Morse in the opening act, varied from ringing, effect-laden chords to a few short but hot leads. He sizzled in "Tom Sawyer," perhaps the best song of the night, and had fun in an extended romp during "Closer to the Heart." Despite getting bogged down in a couple of overwrought compositions, Rush's performance last night sparkled. It's nice to hear a band that has followed its own musical instincts rather than commercial trends. Morse, who developed a reputation for guitar mastery with the Dixie Dregs (later known simply as the Dregs), showed he hasn't lost his touch since going solo. With his three sidemen -- Jerry Peek on bass, Rod Morgenstein on drums and Terry Brock on second guitar and vocals -- Morse whipped out several driving instrumentals, including a blistering rendition of "Cruise Missile." One of the highlights of the 30-minute set was Morse's rendition of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" followed by a note-for-note cover of Jimmy Page's solo in the Led Zeppelin oldie, "Dazed and Confused." Morse seems to be making a bid for commercial success by mixing the gymnastic instrumentals with more mainstream, accessible numbers such as "Stand Up," the title track from the new album. If his songs garner more playing time, Morse and his band probably will be getting some much deserved recognition.
