Anagram at least has a catchy melody that can bring you back to listening to it again.

For sure, Anagram does have a certain something. After hearing it for the first time I did go back and listen to it again to confirm that it was the bland, uninspired and non-Rush-like filler track that I suspected it was. Sadly, my suspicions were confirmed, and I haven't listened to it since 1989.

More people have streamed Anagram than Out of the Cradle. Let that one marinate.

He had the Boston crowd sing “Madrigal”.  Of all the songs in the catalogue….

As for sing-along songs from Rush, you can do worse than Madrigal. Most of T4E and S&A, for instance.

Big hit makers for sure but I'm not a fan. Still, when She's Gone is 'on the radio' I never switch the channel, I often turn up the volume. I'll go to the iTunes right now and put that one in my library.

Yep. That's probably not going to make Sara smile.

Watch out. She'll chew you up.

So you're saying that Hall and Oates are...out of touch?

All malt liquor.  I love my state but Lone Star beer is terrible.

Lone Star is bad. Shiner Bock is passable. I'll never go out of my way to get one but I know I won't make a strong EWWWW face if I drink one.

Bohemian style!  I love that "it's registered pure"!

I can't see "Bohemian style beer" and not think of Shawshank Redemption.

As classy a first lady as we've ever had -- she was what every first lady should aspire to be.

Old English 800, Schlitz Malt Liquor, Mickey's wide mouth.  

My first thought was any malt liquor.  Disgusting. Imagine thinking you need a 40oz bottle of that shit.

Any of the cheap American macrobrews would qualify, like Miller, Budweiser, Coors, Busch, and any light beer...they all use cheap grains, including corn or rice (Bud) -- grains which should never be used to brew beer.

Michelob, which is marketed as a highbrow beer, is really gross. The one macrobrew that I can stomach while held at gunpoint is Pabst Blue Ribbon.

Yeah, he was a good one. RIP.

One need not be "TRFer of the century" to positively contribute and interact in SOCN. Being at least somewhat open-minded and somewhat thick-skinned and having some ideas of your own is all you need. BP's been in there for only a week and he's doing just fine.

That's gonna change, pal. 

Oh?

God invented "civil government" so there really can't be a theocracy since God created it. Who knew? At least that's what the new speaker and his ilk believe.

BP nominated for TRFer of the century for participating in the TRF cage fight matches. Watch out for the big words and and getting trapped by concepts from an ideologically unique perspective.  Good luck to you.

I need to see these guys at some point. Hopefully they do more US shows, going to make it to a show if they swing by my area.

A link would be nice!

At least Cale’s version isn’t boring. 

Right, Cale's version is raw and grimy, while Clapton's is too polished for my taste.

Don't get me wrong, this lineup will be fun, especially with Satriani and Bohnam, but it's amazing how, even after Eddie's death, the Sammy/Michael camp can't get it together with the Alex/Wolfgang camp and do a proper tribute tour.

Hoppy birthday, Rick!

Great photos, thanks for posting them!

This is the full interview that we saw teased with the 8 questions thread.

Asked PhotoSonic: Alex Lifeson, Geddy Lee and Neil Peart as Battlestar Galactica characters.

 

Photosonic is as much of an asshole as Chatsonic. Apparently, it has never seen a picture of Rush.
