Rush

Summer of 1981
tripping on the dunes of Cape Cod
listening to Permanent Waves on my Panasonic boombox
I witnessed a shooting star as these lyrics played
"All at once, the clouds are parted
Light streams down in bright unbroken beams"
That was Jacob's Ladder but my favorites were
Spirit of The Radio
which was all over the radio that summer
and Freewill
I never listened to much Rush after that
but I did sneak into the Worcester Centrum to see them on the Signals tour
"Be cool or be cast out"
I was somewhere in between
