Hello everyone! Some of you may know me, but I'm not that popular here on TRF. I need a favor from all of you. I am in this contest to meet rush, get front row seats, and a bass guitar. As of right now, I am in 6th place, and I need to be in the top 3 in order to qualify to win. That's why I need ALL your guys's help! I am just as big of a fan as those people who have been to 50+ rush shows- and trust me, if i were older, I would totally be there. I've been a fan since 2009. But its not about being a fan from the beginning, its about being there until the end. Rush has truly changed my life for the better. They are much, much more than just a band to me- they are my idols and heroes. They have taught me life lessons I will never forget. They have inspired me to play guitar and viola and make music of my own. They truly are three extraordinary men that have saved me from many things. I will never be able to thank them enough for what they have done for me. When I say they mean the world to me I truly do mean it. Their music is just so unbelievable- I have spent countless hours listening to them, watching them, and playing their music on guitar. I have spent hundreds of my own dollars on them, and I am only 15! My dad has been a fan for 25+ years and has seen them every tour since Grace Under Pressure. He is also a spectacular drummer who wishes to play like Neil. without him, I would not be the person I am today. We go to Rush concerts- that's our absolute favorite thing to do together. We also absolutely LOVE to play music together- me on guitar and him on drums. When I see his smile when we are playing Rush songs it is one of my favorite things to see ♥ Winning this contest is literally one of my biggest dreams! People always say to chase your dreams, so I am chasing this one. (that is what i would put if we weren't limited to 140 characters!) Here is some of the Rush-related artwork I have done: http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z365/musicalabby2112/SnakesandArrows_zpsfbdd945f.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z365/musicalabby2112/GraceUnderPressureTTT_zpsba195667.jpg I drew this one with sharpie markers: http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z365/musicalabby2112/391177_400512320008474_1563216773_n-1_zpse867cda1.jpg http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z365/musicalabby2112/rsfhhhsa_zps57561cb7.jpg I did this portrait with graphite and charcoal pencil: http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z365/musicalabby2112/IMG_2245_zpse09bbaf7.jpg That's not even all of it! I just wanted to share some of my favorites! here's a link if you want to hear me play some rush on guitar: https://soundcloud.com/musicalabby2112/rush-guitar-riff-medley That is why every single one of your votes counts in this contest.
