goose Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Anyways... if you read the Four-Temperament Ensemble thing... Basically, from what I have seen in interviews, Alex is sanguine, Neil is melancholic, and Geddy, as has already been established, is phlegmatic. There are no choleric members (unless you count John Rutsey, but I don't know what he was like...). Is anyone else here in agreement?I'm more into the Myers-Briggs approach to personality analysis. We've had several discussions about Neil being an INTJ, and the fact that here on the Forum there are an inordinate number of INTJs (typically 1% of the population). Good thread! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate2112 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 In the Dan Rather interview with Geddy Lee, he described each member's interaction with the fans, and effectively, their personalities: Neil is perpetually shy and introverted, and VERY uncomfortable around fans, Alex is gregarious, talkative, and goofy, and Geddy himself is right smack-dab in the middle: very polite, friendly, and humble, yet somewhat reserved. Not as gregarious as Alex, but not as shy as Neil. Meaning, effectively, that they can be considered the new Freudian trio (seen here: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FreudianTrio -though that may be a bit of a stretch). Specifically: Id: AlexSuperego: NeilEgo: Geddy If not that, then it is ALMOST CERTAIN that they represent 3/4 of a four-temperament ensemble (seen here: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FourTemperamentEnsemble). Hint: there are no choleric members of RUSH. Hint: one's sanguine, one's melancholic, one's phlegmatic. Hint: it shouldn't take long to figure out who's who based on reading the descriptions. Who else here agrees? *NOTE: If I offend anyone with this, I sincerely apologize in advance. This thread was not meant to be offensive.* Delete this thread you racist bigot. Don't you know that Geddy Lee is a Nazi Commie???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!! So what do you think Alex and Geddy would be and why? Your welcome. Too hard to say. I've taken that test 4 times over a 25 or so year period and got 4 different results. 1 result was extremely different from the other 3. I guess it shouldn't be too surprising since people can change over time. So it'd be a bit tough to nail it down to specifics other than to say that Alex is extroverted. Anyway, I might've said this earlier, it's hard to judge their personalities based on their public personas which is basically all we have to go by.
