Last Wednesday on the evening before Rush's Thursday night show in Irvine, the Canadian Consulate in Los Angeles held a special reception for Rush where the band was honored with the first ever award for Canadian Excellence in Los Angeles in recognition of the many times the band has played there over the years. The Consulate tweeted out some photos of the event along with a short, 20-second video of Geddy Lee and his bandmates saying a few words.
