Rush

Rush, common name for a small family of flowering plants with inconspicuous flowers, and for its representative genus. None of the approximately 325 members of the family produce edible parts, but some are an important source of fibers. Rushes are worldwide in distribution but are most abundant in moist, cool habitats. Rushes are mostly herbaceous, but one, the palmiet, native to South Africa, is a woody shrub. The flowers are adapted to wind pollination and thus have their petals and sepals reduced to inconspicuous scalelike structures.


The rush genus is the largest in the family, with about 225 species, and its stems produce many useful fibers. One soft-fibered species, the internal linkJapanese mat rush is used in weaving Japanese floor mats called tatami, and it is widely cultivated in Japan for this purpose. This and similar species are also the source of split rushes for chair caning and basket weaving. Other plants commonly called rushes- the bulrush, flowering rush, and scouring rush- are not actually members of the rush family.


Scientific classification: Rushes make up the family Juncaceae. The representative genus is Juncus. The palmiet is classified as Prionium serratum and the Japanese mat rush as Juncus effusus. Bulrushes are classified in the genus Scirpus, of the family Cyperaceae; flowering rushes in the genus Butomus, of the family Butomaceae; and scouring rushes in the genus Equisetum, of the family Equisetaceae.

    Rush is an award-winning Canadian rock band comprised of bassist/keyboardist/vocalist Geddy Lee, guitarist Alex Lifeson, and internal linkdrummer Neil Peart (pronounced: 'Peert') that has been consistently touring and recording since 1973. John Rutsey played drums for Rush on the first album, but resigned for health concerns shortly thereafter. Since Peart joined in 1974, they have remained intact. Interestingly, while Lee does all the singing, almost all lyrics of the band's work have been written by Peart.

    All three individuals are Members of the Order of Canada.

    History

    Rush's musical style has changed greatly over the lifetime of the group. Albums prior to internal link1980's Permanent Waves are a mix of heavy metal and progressive rock similar to Yes or Genesis, and visually sometimes demonstrating their birth within the short-lived era of glitter rock bands, such as Iggy Pop or Ziggy Stardust, wearing flashy costumes and stage shows. The lyrics of that time were heavily influenced by internal linkscience fiction and, unfortunately, the writings and philosophy of Ayn Rand, as exhibited most prominently by 1976's 2112 and 1977's Hemispheres.

    Permanent Waves changed things dramatically. Although the music was still based on heavy-metal style, more and more keyboards were introduced. The themes of the songs changed dramatically, and became far more in common with alternative rock than prog-rock. One song in particular, Spirit of Radio (named for the Toronto-local groundbreaking radio station, CFNY), went on to become a huge hit on the alternative circuit. Another favourite on American "Classic Rock" stations to this day is Tom Sawyer from 1981's Moving Pictures. From that point on their albums of the 1980s tended to follow this lead, although recordings in the later 80s and 90s have sometimes been derided as boring, or mainstream.

    Each of the three individual artists has produced and released work independent of the band's structure, to varying degrees of commercial and critical success.

    After 1996's Test For Echo, the band entered a six-year hiatus due mainly to tragedies in Peart's life. Peart's daughter Selena died in a car accident in August 1997, followed by his wife Jacqueline's death from cancer in June 1998. Peart embarked on a self-described "healing journey" by motorcycle in which he travelled thousands of miles across North America. He subsequently wrote about his travels in his book Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road.

    The band returned in 2002 with a surprisingly heavy Vapor Trails album, their first without keyboards in over twenty years. The album contains the song Ghost Rider, describing Peart's motorcycle journey. It debuted to moderate praise and was supported by the band's first tour in six years, including first-ever concerts in Mexico City and Brazil.

    Rush in Rio, was released in late October 2003. A companion DVD is available.
