Chronos, If I may, I have my new avatar.

This is the best one. Seeing that in double is just wrong in the funniest way. http://www.barthopkins.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/turkey_curious_500x310.jpg Hmmm....

That's impressive. However I think that it's always nice to get a preview of the "O" faces a man make so that the ladies know what to expect and aren't frightened.

I sometimes try having facial expressions when I play guitar, but then I'm met with a wall of laughter from my bandmates.

I don't think anyone beats Gary Moore... http://cdn6.wn.com/ph/img/8b/7f/29db52e0133717e9acf0b2869225-grande.jpg http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/uploads/monthly_03_2012/post-9820-1331545148.jpg http://www.guitarface.co/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/moore0wl.jpg http://www.guitarface.co/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/garymooreooh-gazza1.gifhttp://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/02/06/article-0-001CFFB900000258-687_468x550.jpg http://wpmedia.arts.nationalpost.com/2011/02/0206moore.jpg?w=620 http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/02/27/article-2107148-005851B900000258-710_233x447.jpghttp://asvalt.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/1342759-gary-moore-thin-lizzy-617-409.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v109/CAFeathers/GaryxMoore_19771246originallarge-4-3-800-223-0-3867-2731.jpg

The youngest of the Neville Brothers, Cyril has released a cover of working man complete with a video. Enjoy!

Definitely. Some of his expressions are damn sexy. Of course, I'm sure if ever I propositioned him I'd see this... http://i378.photobucket.com/albums/oo228/LifesonPics/tumblr_mxg5c5yTL11sobt9eo2_1280_zps1fcc0a51.jpg

I felt Neil deserved to be added! http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/f7/63/97/f763972d51b6854d4064cfaaed3d3514.jpg Oh Sorry Mr. Peart! Never again!

He hams it up when he's in the mood, and he's always in the mood come filming time. He didn't do much of anything when I saw them except take a couple of steps forward and a couple of steps back at various points. But I don't particularly care if he stands there indifferently or plods around with a goofy grin on his face all night. He must be doing something right for all these ladies to rank him up there with the likes of me. Well said. :clap: Of course he isn't going to be "feeling it" every song at every show. Even if he is just standing there, he's still impressive to watch.

Yeah, but Lerxst wears a toupee and he's still in the top 3 sexiest men in the world! :o Cyclonus, Lifeson... who is the third? :laughing yellow guy: Bless you, we need pics and videos of you standing expressionless whilst playing guitar so that we can make a decent judgement.

For the first time in just over a month, I have the house to myself again. And today, I am doing nothing. Not a dang thing and it is niiiiiiiiice.

I wish! If I could, I would. That's really cool. So what is the breakfast dish? http://www.rushisaba...Deli-in-Toronto I agree with the comments. Sounds like closer to the heartburn. "Lox, salami and eggs all scrambled together with onions and served with rye toast, latkes & apple sauce just the way he likes it." That. Sounds. So good! Oh, it does, it does, it does. I don't know if my stomach can handle a breakfast like that anymore, but I would give it a try. I think I could manage the toast and apple sauce. :codger: I was thinking the same thing. I could eat it but I'd probably spend the next hour in the bathroom afterwards. : Yeah and who wants to have that sort of memory association from Geddy? NOT ME!

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww!! indeed! (Why can't I give this a thousand likes..! :sigh: )

Now that is one beautiful cat...... :cheers: *le :sigh: ... silly :) ...*

Yeah it's hard to have a sex life when you've had hand surgery. :syrinx: I want to be serious though, I am sorry that you're going through all of this. I used to enjoy being on bowling leagues when I was in elementary school and then once again I joined a company league about 6 years ago but now my wrist and elbow just won't have it. Getting old sucks, sometimes it seems like it's nothing but a sexless existence filled with doctor's and surgery appointments and sitting in the waiting rooms of pharmacies and Emergency Rooms. Good thing the pharmacies sell beer as well, I guess. :hail: The sexless existence part is spot on. It hurts for sure. Everybody, I would think, wants to feel like they have some sex appeal to somebody (anybody!!!). On a lighter note, try having your "sex partner" in a cast for three months..... :syrinx: :) I wish I had an answer for you, the only thing that somewhat helps is the $149.00 an hour doctor I meet with once a week (thank the Lord for insurance) lol. At least you give a sh*t enough to respond..... :) Meanwhile, I'm just glad I didn't kill the thread. I'll keep the personal revelations to myself from now on. I, for one, enjoyed reading your personal revelations if that helps any. I am the thread killer around here anyway... :)

That's impressive. However I think that it's always nice to get a preview of the "O" faces a man make so that the ladies know what to expect and aren't frightened. Fear may be a concern with the LABTs and Sheldons you associate with, but it never enters the equation when in the moment with Cyclonus.

The Yukon Blade Grinder Europe (currently grindin’ blades in the land of the risin’ sun) presents “I am an alien from planet Mega-something!” Chapter one. The night and the white foxes The white foxes know the truth. They come out to greet me every night from their small shrines, with their red ears and pointy, smiley faces. They seem to know every kind of truth, but as every true possessor of truth, they keep it for themselves. Harsher is the destiny of the reporter, who seeks not enlightenment for himself but knowledge for the masses. I am here to understand and share. The white foxes understand and keep on smiling. For weeks now the YBGE has been following the trail of news surrounding Yuki Kitazume, the main actor in the late-70s sentai series Megaloman, in which he played the role of young space warrior Takashi Shishidô, protecting Earth from the destructive monsters of the Black Star as the long-haired kung-fu colossus Megaloman. Apparently Kitazume has lately suffered from many “unlucky accidents” that nearly cost him his life. According to former co-star Pepe Hozumi, these accidents are actually killings gone wrong. But furthermore, Hosumi is adamantly sure that Kitazume is really an alien. http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/6776/vlcsnap310843.png (above: Kitazume in his heyday as Megaloman) For an entire week I’ve been meeting Kitazume. He agreed to meet me only at night and only in the Sasuke Inari Temple, lost in the wooden hills surrounding the city of Kamakura. No technological instruments or even electric appliances were allowed. So I had to make my way uphill through an endless procession of red Tori doors lighting my way with matches, and scribble Kitazume’s answer on paper, with just a candle enough to be sure my pen was working. http://www.browniebites.net/photos/japanblog037.jpg (The path to Sasuke Inari Temple, by daylight. In the nighttime is so f*cking dark) Kitazume is an angry old man. He is bitter, resentful, obsessed, paranoid and boasts a Tourette syndrome the size of a T. Rex. And yes, he’s truly an alien. I had to assure him that I would pulish everything he said the way he said it. On one thing only he is adamant: he won’t say the name of his home planet. I tried all the tricks to make him slip, even playing the part of the air-brained journalist, but nothing worked. Anyway, it’s time to let Kitazume tell the tale. Chapter two. The time-gap factor and the Mothership So, Kitazume-san, you’re truly an alien from outer space? No, you brain-fart d*ck-head. Who could come from outer space? It’s obvious I come from another planet. The name of which you’re not willing to tell us, right? You bet, you fool. He has a language control software, didn’t you know? Every time someone says that name, he knows! Who are you talking about? Who is “he”? Why, Lieutenant Curratello, of course! That steel-hearted bastard! Excuse me, but… who would this Lieutenant Curratello be? Listen, you pig-S*it headed gaijin, it’s best if I tell the tale from the beginning, ok? Be my guest. Fine. So, we became aware of your existance, I mean you human race, when you achieved long distance communication. How we rejoyed when we first picked up your signals! A race of brothers in a far corner of the Universe! All of M… of our planet exploded in joy. Of course we were aware that, due to the long distance between our planets, a lot of time passed between your broadcast and our reception. Our scientists called it “the time gap” and extimated it in 12 years. Not long after, we shivered in fear when your first “world war” erupted. Some of us were already begging to come to your rescue. But our leaders said no. Then the war ended and we all sighed in relief. But not too long after that, you were already deep in another, bloodier war. We listened in pure horror when you dropped an atom bomb right here, in this very country. At that point, there was no more a choice. We had to come to your help. So we delpoyed a ship. Some of us were even afraid that, due to the time gap, we would reach your planet only to find it dead and silent. But we held on to hope. One of our finest ships, the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah… What a lousy name for a mothership… In your language maybe, rat-brain. In our world it means “The long-distance traveller”! Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah travelled faster than the speed of light to your rescue… only to find out that our scientists had done wrong. The time gap wasn’t 12 years. It was fuc*ing 34 years!! We left after picking up broadcasts of 1945 and when we arrived it was 1967. Half the world was in the f*cking summer of love and the other half in another bloody war. Excuse me, but 1967 minus 1945 doesn’t make 34… That’s because the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah travels faster than your puny signals, you t*it. And where would this Mothership be, now? The same place it’s always been: in the orbit of Mars. It’s what you call the Deimos moon. Excuse me again, Kitazume-san, but Galileo Galilei saw Phobos and Deimos in the XVII Century… Yeah, that’s why we had to zap the real Deimos to another dimension and disguise the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah as a moon. That was the trickiest part of the program. The program being? Observing you and stopping you from committing mass suicide. We could pick up your signals almost real-time from Mars and send reports to Me… to our home planet in a faster way, using pre-laid transmission beams. At that time, the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah was commanded by Captain LeComte, a scientist, a soldier, a man of many talents, a truly enlightened being. All of us in the Mothership would have given our lives in an instant for him. You mean you were a member of the Mothership? Of course I was, you idiot. And how did you end up here, playing Megaloman? That… that was all Rush’s fault. Chapter three. The renegade Captain and the Schism For a while Kitazume seems lost in the vast deepness of space. He looks at the stars, in the small pieces of night the trees allow us to see, as if trying to find an answer. I look at the foxes, small statues of the divinity of this unique temple. Apparently the soon-to-be Shogun Yoritomo Minamoto had a dream of a fox in this same place, while on exile, and decided to build a temple in her honor. It takes a while before Kitazume speaks again. So for the first years we stuck to our mission. Mass decimation seemed to be out of the question, even if there were some close calls in the early 70s. Captain LeComte was keen on observing all kinds of Earth’s cultural aspects, and in a short while he became a fan of progressive rock. Moreover, he became obsessed with the Canadian power-trio Rush. Why Rush? He probably liked their music. But even more, I think it had to do with their double-neck guitars. You see, they played a strange sexual connection to our anatomy, since we have two… Please Kitazume-san, let’s keep this… information for another time. OK, so LeComte became more and more obsessed with Rush, and by the time the 2112 album came out, he was a total Objectivist. He started selecting the information that was to be bounced off to our planet. He said he knew best. Some of the officials were not too happy about this, but facing LeComte was like facing the wrong end of Neil Peart’s drumsticks. Things became rough. Then, shortly after the release of Hemispheres, the second-in-command, Lieutenant Curratello, made a coup. He tried to seize control of the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah. The crew was split in half. Brotherly blood was shed. LeComte and all of his faithful followers fled to Earth. And you… were one of them? Yeah. I was. We scattered all over the planet. We can pass easily for humans. Even more so nowadays, when Rush have become cool. And what about the Megaloman show? That was a way of trying to tell you the truth without telling it. You see, the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah has terrible weapons. It has a moving waves cannon! Can you believe it? And Curratello… he’s a sad, ambitious and ultimately a totally idiotic fellow. There’s no telling what he would do. We tried many times. The “Galaxy Quest” movie was written and produced by some of us. It’s just one of many examples. But still, you all take this just as kid’s stuff. You said that your people are scattered all over the planet. Are there some of yours in the Vatican? I’m not answering that question. Are there some of yours in the City Council of Toronto? Not answering either. Where's captain LeComte now? No way I'm telling! You do realise you're not very helpful, do you? Never mind. Whatever that crazy Ford guy is trying to make happen, it will only end in dismal woe. I assure you. Let me tell you something, young man: fear the sky. Fear the night when Phobos appears. For in the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah, Lieutenant Curratello sits alone in the Commander’s seat, and his thoughts are just his own. Chapter four. The here and now Thus ended my sixth night in Sasuke Inari temple, listening to Yuki Kitazume and his truth. The dawn brought small comfort, as he left with an incredible agility for a man his age. All I could do was turn to the foxes for comfort, but their enigmatic smiles proved to be a mockery. I haven’t been able to look at the night sky ever since. All I can think about is Lieutenant Curratello, watching over us in his empy control room, pondering. What if he didn’t like Vapor Trails? What if the didn’t like Clockwork Angels? Is there a connection between the Mighty Mothership Bub-Bah and the upcoming Inner-City Olympics of Toronto? Is there a connection between this alien race that’s been living among us for more than 25 years and the Neverland Ranch cult? All questions doomed to remain unanswered, at least for today. The only certainity is that the YBG will be there, even at the end of the world.

Alex's facial expressions make some ladies think certain thoughts, just sayin'.

FTR, I wasn't suggesting fake. I was just suggesting his live "altered melody" with his original vocal mixed in and ONLY on older stuff like Hemispheres, Passage, Temples, etc.. Thought that might be cool. Plus it would give them the opportunity to play some of those that they just can't do. Imagine hearing Beneath, Between, Behind or Bastille Day or whatever from that era again. It is still Geddy after all and he triggers harmonies now so, why not?

How could anyone not love kitties..... :)

I would love to MOVE to Toronto and no I'm not stalking Geddy. I've always been a huge fan of Canada, actually I almost moved to Quebec about 8 years ago after a super nasty breakup with a boyfriend in Vermont. Because of my job I could have transferred to Montreal, Toronto, Boston, or New York but I decided to just come home to California to be with my family and start over here. It seems like an awesome place.

Yeah it's hard to have a sex life when you've had hand surgery. :syrinx:

Never fear, guys. HUGE news are coming from the land of the rising sun! I've had to disguise myself as a zen monk and abandon all electronic equipment for a week to do it, but now it's done and it's huge and it will blow your minds. Hold your breath!

Here's a fun site: http://www.guitarface.co/ But the winner, with a score of eleven, is http://www.guitarface.co/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/nigel-tufnel.jpg

I'll get there. Maybe for the next tour, I'll submit my resume to Geddy. Give that Alex character his pink slip.

Now Check this guy Cedrick out, he was a fixture on Venice beach in CA in the 90's—He could give Geddy a run for his money! I'm trying to locate the one where he play's Billy Jean, if anybody can find that clip please post it?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeF8nPCEJOU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HF7XzqQLc4I

That was pretty fun. I appreciate a cover that's not merely a clone.

Not what I expected but I like it. I love when bands cover other bands and make the song their own.

I like Superconductor but not Spindrift. I always interpreted Superconductor as a slam on manufactured and manipulated pop artists, which I despise, so I enjoy it on that level.

Seems like that stuff may kill libido too, or maybe it's just being married to me...... :)

So...it's the twelfth day of Christmas, folks. In many countries, hispanic ones especially, kids will put out their shoes in hopes of getting gifts from their favorite of the three Kings (the Wisemen). Officially, the holiday is known as Epiphany and marks the arrival of the Wisemen at Bethlehem, having followed the famous star. So...time to choose up. Are you Team Gaspar, Team Melchor or Team Team Baltazar? http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/3-kings-bearing-gifts-17159148.jpg

Maybe not as clever as Satisfaction, but another great Devo cover. Listen to the 15 seconds starting at 1:56 on a good system, ideally on vinyl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VxGsCKXy1U

Mick Jagger said it was his favorite of all the various covers of the song.

Here's a page with a few other people on it with some interesting guitar faces. http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/ug_news/friday_fun_funniest_guitar_faces.html

:o Depending on your age I don't see how that could be possible.... When it comes to the Eagles she's the "New Kid in Town"... I just know in the 70's and 80's they were unavoidable, especially if you lived "In The City"....... :D-13: Unfortunately "I Can't Tell You Why"...

:dweez: :dweez: :dweez: Happy Sixth Anniverary Janie!!!!!! :dweez: :dweez: :dweez: Love, Hope, Rush... RGLT :dweez: :dweez: :dweez:

I wish! If I could, I would. That's really cool. So what is the breakfast dish? http://www.rushisaba...Deli-in-Toronto I agree with the comments. Sounds like closer to the heartburn. "Lox, salami and eggs all scrambled together with onions and served with rye toast, latkes & apple sauce just the way he likes it." That. Sounds. So good! It was probably the best thing I've ever eaten, and that's no exaggeration. And it's huge! I don't know how such a small guy could eat so much food!

Hello Janie! :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :hi: :guitar: <<<< Guitar Janie

Happy 6th, Janie.

Damn, I'm embarassed that I forgot about this one! I love it!

Les Claypool must have played the crap out his Devo LPs when he was a teenager.

Ever see Animal play Edge of Twilight? He's way better than Peart.
