Rush

In March 1986, when Rush performed "Subdivisions" at the Colisée de Québec, they were in the thick of their "Power Windows" tour. This album, released just a few months prior in October 1985, marked a turning point for the band, as it embraced a more synthesizer-driven sound compared to their earlier work, blending progressive rock elements with a contemporary feel. The change reflected not only a musical evolution but also a response to the 1980s rock landscape. Interestingly, "Power Windows" was the first Rush album to feature the synthesizer prominently, showcasing how the band was not afraid to experiment and adapt, keeping things fresh for their fans. This live performance caught them at a high point in their career, solidifying their status as rock legends. A fun tidbit—Rush has often been noted for their elaborate live shows, and this concert was no exception, brimming with energy and the band’s signature musicianship.
