If you’re a Rush fan and were watching the Ohio State game over the weekend, you may have gotten a nice surprise!

The university’s marching band performed a tribute to Rush on Saturday during the team’s half-time show.

The band did a 14-minute performance and included classic Rush Songs “Tom Sawyer” and “The Spirit of Radio.”

“To honor the early 2020 passing of one of the greatest drummers in history, Rush’s Neil Peart, the Ohio State Marching Band added a little more percussion to the mix for the halftime show Saturday,” the university announced in a statement. 

The band approved, sharing the video of the performance on Twitter and writing, “We’re speechless.”

What band’s music do you think would sound great coming from a marching band? Do you enjoy half-time shows?

 

Win!
