  1. Page stole from the great blues musicians. Lifeson ripped off the Looney Tunes.
  2. Welcome to the forum! For me, it's got to be the run from A Farewell to Kings to Signals. I guess that's six albums . . . but then, numbers (and sometimes dates) don't really count when dealing with Rush.
  3. I've just recently put this Geddy Lee tank top on a buy-and-sell website - check the link below. If anyone here would like it, please message me and I'll give it away to the first person. You can help cover cost of shipping. It's never been worn. Size L https://www.kijiji.ca/v-women-tops-outerwear/kitchener-waterloo/geddy-lee-tank-top/1682025464
  4. Did some Artificial Intelligence program make the second video?
  5. I hope everyone is having a good day! Did I have a dream? Crimson misty memory At the fireside Through the endless winter storm Endless rooftops from my window Silver, blue and frozen silence A deep Sahara of snow Frozen in an everlasting view I see red A pleasant-faced man His beard is white, his face is lined Bearing a gift beyond price The things I’ve always been denied, Precious gifts beyond compare Time stands still Feelings run high As excitement shivers up and down my spine This feeling I can’t rise above Then all at once Fly by night away from here To blaze across the heavens like a brilliant shooting star I think a couple of albums still aren't represented . . .
  6. Listening to it now. Great stuff.
  7. I'm sure we're all buying the book. Everyone deserves to hear these! Edit: I see these have been posted elsewhere.
  8. I've read three pages and laughed out loud three times. Great stuff.
  9. This is over a year late in coming, but thanks everyone for last year's birthday wishes! I guess I was away for a while . . . it's been a bit of a hell of a year. All the best to everyone - this is still the best community online!
  10. Pratchett - Tiffany Aching series (starts with Wee Free Men)
  11. How do you make a Kleenex dance? Put a little boogie into it.
  12. Hope your birthday has been amazing!
  13. I hope you have a good one and many more in the future!
  14. Just shootin' them off with no second-guessing . . . The Prophet's Song Supper's Ready La Villa Strangiato Freewill Red Barchetta Dogs Nobody's Fault (Aerosmith) Fool's Overture Wiseblood (CoC) Evil (Cactus) Lenny (SRV) On my journeys back and forth to work, I will think of about 1,000 or more possible replacements, probably. It's difficult not to let Rush take over the list. Not to mention Genesis. And I've just noticed I have no Yes. That's f***ed up.
  15. Happy birthday, and many happy more!
  16. Ultravox . . . could we just maybe give it isolated guitar parts from those other songs, though?
  17. The stand-up comedian. If you like his stuff, you'll probably dig this. It has some pretty cool insights.
  18. Unbelievable. Three years before I moved to Kitchener. Damn. Wild seeing Lifeson going nuts at 5:11!
  19. Fingers or pick? Sounds like a pick to me. Whoops - guess I'm wrong.
  20. I agree about the lack of heart (which I am grabbing between the lines of I.J.'s post). It's good to know that fans understand that there is actually a lot of heart in Rush's music. (Insert puns now).
  21. Right . . . don't feed it Test for Echo, either. I'm thinking everything from Fly by Night to Signals. A very fine run.
  22. So, if we fed machine learning algorithms all of the Rush albums, could the AI generate anything even remotely as good? Maybe if we left out Roll the Bones and Presto...? Apologies if this has been previously discussed. My students have been writing about this stuff lately and it got me wondering.
  23. I don't have any Doors (never cared for them), and I don't have The Last Waltz (although I have the movie, so maybe that counts).
