    Yay, Rush!

    As for the hint explanations this week:

    Hint cycle one was pretty straightforward, these are all RBN artists of the month (in consecutive order, if I didn't mess that up) authored by The Authority. The artist of the month this month is Black Veil Brides, who are also authored by The Authority. Also, 'Rush, BUT not 2112 was a code (barely) hidden in the first clue.

    Hint cycle two consists of pairs of songs that refer to the three song titles of the Rush pack. BohemianMatt nailed this, even if he went a bit too far in guessing it were six songs. Let's see if you can figure out yourself which pairs fit which songs.

    This week's pretty good anyway. Spirit of the Radio was cool on GH, and the other rush songs are gonna be a blast to play. I'm always in for more Rush.

    the Volbeat's song is like Nickelback but without Kroeger's good voice. It's a pass for me.

    BVB... oh, well... I didn't bought their songs already on RBN yet, I guess i'll just wait more for this one. I'm sure that this will be fun to play.

    I do believe you're the first person to ever say Chad Kroeger has a good voice.

    They're a rockabilly metal band, OMG, I've been waiting for something from them forever. They've been on the top of my playlist since my buddy exposed me to them about a year ago.

    So it really was "Rush, but not 2112." Anyhow, this is pretty cool! But I wonder what the deal is with 2112 now....the mystery will continue.
