As singer Geddy Lee mentioned at one point, the guys in Rush are "no spring chickens."

So it was only fitting that the venerable prog-rock trio did things old-school on Tuesday in a marathon 3-hour concert at Amway Arena:

A massive light show. Fireworks. Great-and-Powerful-Oz-like flames. Strobes. Lasers. Enough fog to ground a small airplane.

Not to mention the complementary fragrance of marijuana in the air.

Most important, there was music that was complex, intense and still utterly grand.
