Have You Ever Met Neil Peart In Person?
Draco replied to _hi_water._'s topic in NEIL PEART - 1952-2020
Not true with Geddy and Alex. I have met them both, and they are super down-to-earth, and just plain wonderful. I used to see Alex quite often at The Orbit Room. (Once having a shot of Tequila with him), and my ex and I won a radio contest and had breakfast with Geddy during the MFH promo tour. To your point however, Geddy, my ex Julie, and I had a wonderful conversation about non Rush stuff. Her son and Geddy's daughter are the same age, so they were talking about kids, and Geddy and I had a great baseball conversation. The thing that impressed me, is that Geddy knows every World Series champion from the early 20's on to today, not only that, but if that champion had a nickname, he knew that as well. (Murders Row, The Big Red Machine, The Family, etc). -

After the Snakes and Arrows tour in 2007 at the Gorge, I drove back to Seattle to stay the night at a Holiday Inn. Right there was Neil's tour bus. I however, was hella tired and went to bed. Work up the next morning and the Tour Bus was gone. -
I personally see not issues what-so-ever with what Three Eyes said. I got the Starman mask today, and someone said THE EXACT SAME THING!!! I laughed.

Thank you everyone!!!

Hi Ken, how’s things? Some good, some bad. I've landed a great job with Yahoo (They have a server farm near Buffalo). My wife is undergoing chemo for her third occurrence of cancer in a year. We're super positive about it. Just a strain.

I hear you. Oh please, worrying about Counterparts is like looking at the all new C8 Corvette and wondering whatever happened to that Fiero you used to own. CP has survived a hell of a lot more than we've ever had to deal with. It's been the home of lots of Rush fans for what, almost 20 years? The best is when a server company we were on was bought, and we would be down for a week while they moved the servers from California to New Jersey. 2 months later, we found out the Russian Mob bought the server company, and had everyone's hard drive sitting on the floor, and wanted something like $2k to give us the hard drive back.

This is sorta like seeing a child you gave up for adoption at 12 yrs go into witness protection.

Trin battled hard, and always smiled through his battles. He will be greatly missed.

Most of you have never met Mike Wells, but there may be some of you who were regulars of CP back in the day, who knew the poster of the name "WIndshield Fly". So sorry to say, that Mike, a.k.a. WIndshield Fly passed away last weekend. So for those of you that knew Fly from CP, go out and buy a bag of Funyons and remember his laughter and fun spirit. Fly, you will be missed, and missed big time. :(

Why? :D-13: Well I'm not going to...but using (and misrepresenting) others creative work like that for prmotion without permission nor consent is pure evil. Ok. I can get behind that. What's apparent is someone either in that band or connected with that band has mad video editing skills. Maybe Rush should employ them to do their video's... :drool:

Not that bad. But it's a 4 piece, and I can't wrap my head around a 4 piece Rush cover band.

Why? :D-13:

The Yukon Blade Grinder "Rush" theme park—HELP WANTED!!!
Draco replied to Tombstone Mountain's topic in Rush
I don't know about an amusement park, but if Rush started a Pharmacy, the first product sold would be Caress of Steel Viagara. -
