Well said.

Rocky Kuner can do the job. :) For all those years some of us used to joke about the chick singing for Rush. We love Geddy but sometimes his screeching did sound like a chick. Whoever is reading this : Come on, admit it.. you heard it too. Who knew that in the second decade of the new Millennium that a lady would actually come along and nail those songs? Frankly, I don't know if another guy /could/ sing those songs the same way.

Dude - what happened over there? Any word? I hit up FJ about it a few days ago on Facebook. He said the hosting company has been unresponsive to his inquiries, which is unusual because they normally are. But then he went on to say "they just need to bounce the site. I don’t expect it to be a big deal." Not exactly sure what that means, to be honest. He said he has backups and will move the site if necessary but he'd rather not do that. Says he'll continue to wait for their response at least until the end of the week before he does anything radical. I just read this. Kind of pisses me off. He's paying good money to keep that site up. The hosting provider is billing, they should be responsive. Not acceptable under any circumstance.

Glad to see that tits isn't censored. They do need to be free.

I guess back then bands weren't as conscious about wanting to preserve stuff for the future as they maybe would be now. The band has expressed a lot of negative feelings about Exit in the years since, both about overdubbing stuff and about the sequencing. If you're going to alter things and cherry-pick, it's much better to do it the way they did it on Different Stages, where it's at least sequenced like a single concert with a beginning and end and keeps most of the important stuff. All the World's a Stage is their best live album to me. Combines a great performance, great sound quality and the authenticity of being an actual live recording. Can't be beat. I'm kind of hoping that an ESL40 would have the full shows, correct sequencing, and most of the original playing. That's a lot to ask for, and a lot would have to happen to make it so. Like the band still having the original tapes.... (Or Ole having the tapes)

Fortunately, the remixed Earthshine has a guitar solo. :)

You've already said too much aaaannnd you are reported. Good - where's my warning point? Never could get a damn warning point. Just one F U C K I N G point for shit sake! Well it's impossible to earn a point at CP. FJ would probably give them away if we asked... but that's no fun.

Anyone got a linky to that 11 page CP thread on here, please? I can't find it.

Some people fear that which they don't understand. Ignorance and prejudice goes hand in hand, brother.

The more the better, and CP has too much history to just dismiss them. Meh, they don’t have me. EGO much? I provide valuable content that you can't get over there. CP provides a 'less safe' environment that some prefer. Content and knowledge are one thing, and everyone is grateful (or should be) to those who provide it. However, an environment with looser rules is appealing to some. Myself included. I never could color inside the lines. ;) Interesting... Yeah, you should have seen the Costa Concordia thread. It would rock your world. Heh heh.

Yeah! Time to make some changes around here! Yeah man, let's make this place EXACTLY like CP! They'll be no take over. Back in your crates. Back in my crate? But I just arrived here in the free city of Bravos. I spent a month on a ship, in that crate, shitting through a knothole. Varys would then dump it overboard, along with all the copies of COS and the first VT mix..... I'm not getting back in any crate. Where's Danerys? I need to advise her. SNA too. Do you know how hard it was to squeeze Leela through that thole?

Old CP good. New CP will have to suffice.

That's been brought up a number of times over the years that I have been here. They don't seem to want to waiver on censoring certain words. Which really doesn't make any sense to me these days. In the early days of the internet it was more appropriate. But now that everyone has access to everything seeing the word "f**k" written out is far from the worst thing someone can come across while browsing the internet. Kids say worse than that in middle school. Now now. We don't want to offend anyone's sensibilities, peeps. Some folks still get downright offended at cussin and rough language. Slandering the band and it's management is also frowned upon in these parts. I'm sure that if I went on one of my Bricking Rants, or started talking about Suckfest 75' (COS), I'd be out on my fracking ass. Gotta play nice.

The more the better, and CP has too much history to just dismiss them. Meh, they don’t have me. EGO much? I provide valuable content that you can't get over there. Their NOT DEAD because you're not there. They have yet again found a bad server company that obviously can't do their jobs adequately. that's all. I Hope Joe can find a competent company to do so. I had a feeling it's a hosting issue ORF. Since FJ has taken the lead on admin duty, the backups and board workings have been great. No more of those kind of software/patch derived stability issues that we'd seen in the past.

Hope should be on that acoustic mix-tape.

When I was 13 and had just discovered them, they were all I knew. This was 1981 and 82. There's a lot of other great music out there. Rush were amazing, but they weren't the only game in town.

Just for the record, I'm comfortable with my mortality. Midlife crisis pretty much didn't happen for me. I went from, "immortal gonna' live forever to "oh well, I'm gonna' die someday. Whatever". ** I don't fear death. Don't want it to happen any time soon though. Don't want it to be stupid, senseless or violent. In truth, I think the world is pretty boring. Life is a struggle - have to fight for every inch, and when I get somewhere I have to defend it against the thieves and have-nots. Despite this, I do the best I can to be happy and provide for my family. But f**k it, I'm not worried about the end. There's nothing special here anyway - just a bunch of tribal humans who think their religion/country/identity is the best, and want to dominate everyone else because of it. It got old, fast. **We're only immortal for a limited time.

Charlene is hot. I think the house is great. Not a shred of paisley wallpaper to be found. Carpet made of ties for the win.

When Geddy and Al find another drummer, it will not be Rush. It will be something else. There is no more Rush.

Their name itself was years ahead of it's time.
