   Check out La Villa Strangiato from Italy.  This is a band specialized in   
   Rush from 2112 through Signals and they are really, really good.  In   
   contrast to Rush, the bassist is stocky and the guitarist lanky, but   
   otherwise one could hardly tell the difference.  The bassist also sings   
   and plays keyboards.  Even the funny shakes of the right hand which   
   Geddy does are the same.
