terrible_I Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Does Geddy play guitar or drums or Neil play guitar or bass? What are some of their other hobbies outside of reading, tennis, wine tasting and bike riding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweetmiracle Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Alex has or had a Harley-Davidson, flies airplanes, goes on fighter flights with the Canadian Air Force, and likes to cook and play golf. He tried to play viola (I think) in Jr high. Geddy plays guitar every night on tour! Neil plays a bit of piano, if he still remembers his childhood lessons. They all read. Geddy once said that Rush was about 'books and drugs and rock'n'roll.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrible_I Posted August 26, 2004 Author Share Posted August 26, 2004 Thanks for your prompt responses. How about religious beliefs and Philosophies? I know that Gary (Geddy) is Jewish and as such has his wedding in Jewish tradition. What else? Just so all of you know I have only seen Rush in concert once that was 10 years ago in March. It was a very visually vibrant show and everything I could have hoped for as a Rush fan at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems the missing link to Alex on that issue may be in the Rush In Rio hidden Anthem video live from 1975. Geddy - Yes, Jewish - also confirmed in RIR as he is wearing the star of David. Alex - Christian? I believe only because he is wearing a cross I believe in that video. Neil - Used to be athiest, but seems now is agnostic... Can someone expand on this/correct this?

Sweetmiracle Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Maybe it has to do with Alex or Charlene's ethnic backgound... people in some countries wear a wedding ring on the right hand, others on the left..... I guess both would make one very married!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrible_I Posted August 27, 2004 Author Share Posted August 27, 2004 Ok, it is obvious from their music that there is spiritual influence in their music (Hemispheres). It would be nice to see them answer these questions themselves. Anyway, what nationality is Neil? We know that Geddy is from Poland and Alex from Yugoslavia. Is Neil French?

Neil was born in Canada, I believe. Actually i think you are just referring to their ancestry as to Poland and yugoslavia....kick me in the nuts if I'm wrong, but they were all born in Canada.
