My opinion on Rush (gratuitous cursing)

Neil Peart wrote all the lyrics. He and Geddy Lee were both fans of Ayn Rand. The liner notes for the album “2112” included an acknowledgement to ‘the genius of Ayn Rand” and it drove lefties nuts. I suspect that’s part of the reason they never really got proper recognition. Lefties knew that it wasn’t a lefty band. And the “non conformists” in the music industry can’t have anyone that doesn’t conform. As Rush notes, “Conform or be cast out” (not about the music industry but if the shoe fits..)
Red Barchetta. Gotta be green don’t ya know.
Best pit for me was Slayer, 1989 at the Aragon Ball room in chi-town, with Saxxon and Motorhead!!!
I saw then on Ozzfest and later with Dio, Iron maiden. There was third in a smaller venue but I forgot the band who opened for them who got huge.
Yep. A story of the banning of cars. Sounds familiar.
Whoa! The last time is saw them on tour was with Primus too. Funny. That was a while ago.
Maiden and Dio. Two of my favorites. Now favorites of my two sons. 17 and 14. Gotta pass that sh!t down to the n xt generation.
Hehe. Good one.
“I like to rock!”
“That was April Wine Ricky.”
FReegards
The Rush / Primus tour I told my GF is the only Primus show that did not involve me being in a moshpit. We had good seats actually haha
Of course, Red Barchetta
“Now favorites of my two sons. 17 and 14. Gotta pass that sh!t down to the n xt generation.”
Freeper father of the year! Like my 12 year old nephew, 2 years ago he just asked me while working on my car.
Uncle, what’s that? “Guns N Roses”
Uncle, who’s that? “Metallica”
They learn..
Geddy Lee will keep touring as long as there are rare baseball collectibles available to purchase.
inter-fear’d.
***Good wordsmithing ✍
You’ll be surprised how much royalties they make every time Tom Sawyer is played

That was on Hemispheres.
Yessir. They certainly do.
You can visit part of Geddy's incredible collection at the Negro League Baseball museum in Kansas City. Geddy donated the greatest collection of autographed baseballs from the Negro Leagues several years ago.
