Digital Man Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 I am watching the show "According to Jim" & they have a blues band. They were practicing in the garage & at the end of the song Jim says " Well that blew" & his brother in law says "What, like we're ever gonna open for Rush?" I just paused the show to come post this...how much of a Rush geek am I??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonraker Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 There is some news radio show I was listening to the other week, right before I took off for Reno I believe. The beginning credits song of the show was the first minute or so of Animate. I thought that was kinda cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cygnus_X1 Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 There are multiply references to in Futurarma. Apparently Fry's a big fan as is his creator The episode that I remember the most was Fry saving the world from an alien invasion whilst listening to his mix tape! The quote goes something like: "All I need is a cold beer and my own Rush mix tape" Then you see him shooting down aliens with Tom Sawyer playing in the background. Sorry if this has already been mentioned before, but it made me chuckle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arndrake Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 I think I remember that one. It was quite funny. I'm curious why there has never been a reference to Rush in That 70s Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Test4VitalSigns Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 QUOTE (Arndrake @ Mar 31 2005, 06:56 AM) I think I remember that one. It was quite funny. I'm curious why there has never been a reference to Rush in That 70s Show. There has been at least 2 references to on That 70's Show that I know of and it is Eric's favorite band as well. In one episode called "Canadian Road Trip" 2 Mounties (played by Dave Thomas and Joe Flaherty of SCTV fame) ask why they are in Canada Eric replies "We just came here to get the beer...and I love . Fly By Night! Oww!" In another episode called "Eric's Corvette Caper" Eric's dad Red bought a brand new Corvette. When Red and Kitty go out of town Red forbades Eric to even touch the Corvette and had it rigged so that he would know if it has been touched. Eric wanted to impressed this hot girl so he takes the Corvette for a ride with the girl. When Red and Kitty returns Red is totally convinced that Eric did not touch the car and as a reward was going to let him drive it. They get in the car and Red turns on the radio and "Temple of Syrinx" comes roaring out of the speakers thus busting Eric. According to PowerWindows site there were a few more references on the show from last few years but I haven't been watching the show for awhile and so I missed these. Here is the References in Pop Culture section on the PowerWindows site which lists every reference of in TV shows and movies... http://www.2112.net/powerwindows/RushReferences.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if this has already been mentioned before, but it made me chuckle I do beleive the quote is: Fry: All right. It's Saturday night, I have no date, a two-liter bottle of Shasta and my all-Rush mix-tape... Let's rock. This is one of my favorite episodes!!! Whenever I play Space Invaders, I must listen to Tom Sawyer, it gives it a little extra Umph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
