Well, don't get me wrong, I'm a big dittohead. But I'm not quite as optimistic yet about how Rush will be "off the pills." Let's not forget that he first began taking them for pain---pain that presumably is still present and maybe even worse. He's going to need some relief and I sincerely hope he finds it. Otherwise he may not be able to sit in the Atilla the Hun chair for 3-4 hours a day. Who knows, maybe he'll have to do the show standing up! :) Get well soon Rush!

"Who knows, maybe he'll have to do the show standing up!"

Boy, did that trigger a memory. I remember years ago Rush doing some shows in which he told us he was standing up because his back hurt!

I always thought the Atilla the Hun Chair sounded awfully uncomfortable!
