RUSH Producer Discusses Upcoming DVD Releases

October 12, 2005

RUSH's producer and director Pierre Lamoureux recently spoke to All Headline News about the upcoming "R:30 - Rush Live In Frankfurt, Germany" DVD package that is set to hit stores November 22.

Lamoureux is responsible for the huge undertaking of not only the "R:30" package but the DVD releases of "Exit Stage Left..." , "Grace Under Pressure Tour - 1984", and "A Show of Hands", all of which are being released in 2006 in both a special box set and individual package.

"There is a lot of work that has gone on with the band over the last year," Lamoureux said in an exclusive with All Headline News.

"We have the entire RUSH catalog in our hands. Not just the studio material they have released on albums, but every single demo or song that has not been released as well. We are setting RUSH up for the future for releases that will be able to have 5.1 audio mixes along with SACD formats down the road."

The news is obviously going to make every RUSH fan shine from Bangkok to Lakeside Park in Canada, but Lamoureux insists it only gets better from here.

"For obvious reasons I can't get into every detail about the band's business and future but I can assure you the concerts that we are re-releasing are not straight VHS to DVD transfers," he said. "These are color touched, remastered, and re-mixed in 5.1 stereo and we are deciding which extras we will add to each in the coming days. We are basically done with everything except the extras and that decision lies with the band.
