I'll start by saying I've been a part of the Rush online community for nearly 25 years.

I'd always intended to hold up a sign at a concert that said "looking for Rush fans to date!" lol (well not really, but...)

Only there aren't going to be many more concerts.

Sooo... have any of you met a Rush fan and started dating?  I'm completely serious, but I also would never ever attract someone who's already committed.  My real name is Amy and some of you may remember me from TNMS.

No....but I know a couple I would date if I could!

[grep]

No. But I'm lucky enough that even though my wife doesn't like them, she knows that they are really good at what they do.

[Maverick]

Well....

[EagleMoon]

No

[Narps]

No. Would be pretty cool to have in common though if it were possible...

[MeanMeanPride]

My wife! It was one of our icebreakers on our first date. She's not as big a fan as I am, but she goes with me every time we get a chance to go.

[Anthemic]

I married one!

I'm wondering if I should put it in a personal ad... I am the real deal.  I've met several guys (as friends!) over the years at gigs and now that I'm free.... no more gigs.   My 75-year-old mother took me to my first gig when I was 15,and sent me the news of Geddy's 62nd birthday.  We are a Rush family! lol

I wish I could've somehow run into you 10 years ago.    I used to believe the stereotype that women were about as likely to be into Rush as The Three Stooges.

My girlfriend *does* like Rush, but only casually.  I took her to the TM tour.  Would be awesome to be with someone who got as excited that they're playing Cygnus X-1 as I do.

My husband and I actually fell in love with Rush together.... I'm so grateful!!

[lemonycake]

Yep, I dated a guy a few months back who liked Rush and went to see them during the S&A tour (yeah that was 7 years ago haha), but he was more of a casual fan and didn't keep up with them as much. He was also kind of a dick, but that's another story

I fell in love with a Rush fan.  It was one of the many things we had in common when we first met long ago.  I bought her a 2112 vinyl album for her birthday, and bought her first 2112 compact disc.  Zoom to the present day, after a torrid love affair, a broken engagement, 20 years apart, and being on good terms, I still text her whenever I see Rush in concert.  

"Whenever I see Rush, I think of us!"  I always tell her.....

[x1yyz]

Yes.

[umoveme]

Uhhhh

[snowdogged]

Not since the restraining order.

[jamie]

I had a crush on one but it faded.

[treeduck]

The way you've put that you make it seem like RUSH is the only band a "Rush fan" would like. I like hundreds of bands, and most RUSH fans don't just like RUSH.

She told you to leave that thing alone, but you didn't listen again!
