"Invisible airwaves will crackle with life" when VH1 Classic presents the world television premiere of "Rush R-30", a DVD concert performance from the band's $21 million grossing sell-out 30th Anniversary Tour. The concert will air as part of VH1 Classic's salute to RUSH the weekend of Friday, January 13.

The concert's 22-song set list in the concert spans RUSH's incredibly diverse 30-year career, representing 17 of the band's 18 studio albums. Electrifying performances include "Hemispheres", "The Spirit of Radio", "Anthem", "Tom Sawyer", "Subdivisions", "Earthshine", "2112", "Limelight", plus tracks from the band's 2004 covers EP "Feedback", including "Summertime Blues" and "Crossroads".
