Are the members of Rush real Rush fans?

Recommended Posts

As an astute poster taught his critics in another thread in order to be a real Rush fan you had to realize that all of their songs were of equal...and perfect...quality.

 

There are some of us here, despite not being real fans, who have seen that at least Geddy and Neil have been critical of or disappointed in songs or even entire eras of the band's output. And certainly Alex expressed disappointment at the direction the band took at one point in their run.

 

From this, I believe we have to admit that even Geddy, Alex, and Neil aren't real Rush fans.

To be fair, given S&A, they had plenty of reason to...

Why do you think Ray Daniels wanted Geddy out of the band back in the day? He could tell that the kid wasn't a real Rush fan.

Do they like the obscure tunes? That’s usually a dead giveaway.

 

Tai Shan is pretty obscure...

 

Yeah no they hate that stuff. You know they only play the big hits at a Rush concert :P :LOL:

"I never kicked Geddy out of the band. I don't want to talk about this anymore." - Ray Daniels (paraphrased)

 

"Oh yeah there was that one time Ray kicked me out of the band, lol." - Geddy Lee (paraphrased)

 

 

hm...yeah I'm gonna have to go with Ray on this one, since he's clearly never expressed any dislike in anything Rush have ever done in their entire career. Aside from retiring of course, because apparently you can love every song and album equally and basically everything they ever did and still be upset by them choosing to end it...

 

wow, what a night.

Steak & lobster are equal to a hunk of slimy spam straight out of the can! If you don’t think so then you’re not a true food fan!

He made that post before you apologized, I'm sure he doesn't think poorly of you anymore. You can check the timestamp at the top of the post to see.

You got me

 

But i still think all the songs are PERFECT i truly do.

 

I guess i love RUSH more than RUSH themselves

 

I have heard them talking about there dislike of certain songs, I disagree with them also, I even love the kimonos

 

CANT say i love Alex's 2112 Camel toe :banana: :Alex: There you got me to insult my Hero ALEX, My Cat is named Alex btw :pussy:

Tai Shan is pretty obscure...

 

Yeah no they hate that stuff. You know they only play the big hits at a Rush concert :P :LOL:

 

Me and my mother LOVE Tai Shan, Its the song of eternity

 

A nice glass of wine and some Tai shan makes all my troubles disappear, The songs is like a bubble bath or a trip to the spa

 

I know that is GEDS least favorite songs, Never heard it live either, That was upsetting to learn

 

I know Neil loves it, 100% :Neil: on top of a mountain early in the morning with some of the finest Weed known to man, Wish i was with him when the Inspiration for it happened

 

 

 

Shame on you GEDDY :rage: :tsk: :geddy: Listen to it until you learn to love it Maybe smoke a bowl

Ugh, the flute...the stupid f***ing flute.

 

And China sang to me...

 

Seriously, Neil?

 

Bleh. The shame.

Chinese weed is the finest known to man? I have some doubts about this, although I don’t doubt that being stoned can make the Tai Shan listening experience more interesting. Or irritating.

Maybe Neil should’ve gone to Bangkok for some Thai Shan. :smoke:
