GoddessInTheirGarden

Here's my short list of favorite Ged vocals. 1) His Canadian accent in the second verse of Nobody's Hero: "AGAIIIINNST the howling mob" 2) The chorus of Marathon 3) From his solo record, a two way tie between the title track and Home On The Strange ("He likes to work with his hands") 4) Double Agent: "A fine place to penetrate" http://i158.photobucket.com/albums/t105/GoddessInTheirGarden/shirtlessgeddy2008.jpg

As for which Geddy I prefer, young or current, it's hard to say..... ARGUMENT #1: YOUNG GEDDY Back then I was pretty damn young myself (13 years old), and my assessment of him was quite superficial: I thought he looked 'pretty'. I think it was the cumulative visual presentation of his tall skinny body, long hair, big glasses, and soft-spoken demeanor. He definitely got my attention on his looks alone, not to mention his singing. I never heard a MAN hit such high notes before! ARGUMENT #2: MODERN DAY GEDDY...MEAN MEAN STRIDE My revised adult assessment is that he is definitely NOT 'pretty'. Now that he's hovering over me with tar and feathers, I should explain what I mean by that. "By all means, Kim, please do!" he encourages. I'm about to turn 40 next year, so now I notice his physical evidence of middle age with renewed appreciation (receding hairline, graying temples, etc.) More importantly, he carries himself with an intriguing aura of quiet, controlled masculine confidence. He also has the COOLEST sense of humor about himself and his music. Not bad for a guy who's been a 'thuper thexy rock thtar' since the dawn of time. OK, so he has to "modify" some of those world famous high notes now. Such a minor concession only adds to his distinguished charm. "#@%#@ smartass whippersnapper!" Geddy curses.

Goddess' Pet Peeves 1. Alleged "adults" who have illegible handwriting worse than a grade schooler just learning to write. 2. Florida drivers, old or young. I must interface with them on a daily basis, and sadly, Neil's assessments are 100% correct. 3. LOCAL COMMERCIALS WHERE THE ACTOR FEELS THE NEED TO SHOUT AT THE TOP OF THEIR LUNGS WHILE PROMOTING THEIR PRODUCT!! I hit the mute button immediately. (use of all caps intentional, BTW) 4. People invading my personal space in public. 5. Clueless people who don't understand they are behaving obnoxiously. If you confront them, they will only be more confused than ever, and they still won't correct themselves.

QUOTE (Chasartymac @ Sep 1 2004, 04:21 PM) A guy walks into a bar with his pet monkey. He orders a drink and while he's drinking, the monkey jumps all around the place. The monkey grabs some olives off the bar and eats them, then grabs some sliced limes and eats them, then jumps onto the pool table, grabs one of the billiard balls, sticks it in his mouth, and to everyone's amazement, somehow swallows it whole. The bartender screams at the guy, "Did you see what your monkey just did?" The guy says "No, what?" "He just ate the cue ball off my pool table---whole!" "Yeah, that doesn't surprise me," replied the guy, "He eats everything in sight, the little bastard. Sorry. I'll pay for the cue ball and stuff". He finishes his drink, pays his bill, pays for the stuff the monkey ate, then leaves. Two weeks later he's in the bar again, and has his monkey with him. He orders a drink and the monkey starts running around the bar again. While the man is finishing his drink, the monkey finds a maraschino cherry on the bar. He grabs it, sticks it up his butt, pulls it out, and eats it. The bartender is disgusted. "Did you see what your monkey did now?" he asks. "No, what?" replies the guy. "Well, he stuck a maraschino cherry up his butt, pulled it out, and ate it!" said the bartender. "Yeah, that doesn't surprise me", replied the guy. "He still eats everything in sight, but ever since the cue ball incident, he measures everything first."

THE WRITER: Welcome to The Rush Forum. This is a really good group to hang out with, very creative, confident, and opinionated. I know you'll have fun here. I too am a born-again "Rushmantic". My rebirth happened in October 2005, and the last year and a half has been AWESOME: discovering lots of "new" music for the first time (old stuff by the calendar year it was released but new for me in that I'm hearing it for the first time)...learning about the band members as individuals, particularly by reading Neil's books....getting involved with internet stuff, and hanging out with other fans....creating my own Rush website...and cheering the band into the future with Snakes & Arrows. I often channel back in time to that young teenage Rush geek I used to be and I think, "That kid was on to something!" (I just turned 39 in March).

Finding My Way. How in the name of God did he ever sing like that and not injure himself?
