ChroniclesOfRush

Best song ever...

I decided to go to the show on April 12th here in Chicago. Any TRF peeps meeting up before the show?

2112: "It's one for all and all for one" was commonly heard as: "Let's smoke a bowl....." Ahhhh the teen years.

Another "thread coming to a screeching halt by a CoR post". HAHA! Come on boys. It's a recent movie (not SUCK) that Alex Lifeson wore a dress in.

No. Think much less highbrow. Think Alex Lifeson in yet another wig and dress. Mrs. Doubtfire? I wouldn't doubt it @ this point....but no. Not Mrs. Doubtfire.

I learned that losing a patch of hair is hardly worth "cracking the shitcrust over". Did I win? You already "won" by correctly guessing the movie I posted about. It's why you were next one to post a movie fact. Now someone has to correctly name the movie you're referring to, and when they do, they'll post the next one. I know what someone's getting for Christmas this year.....

What is every Star Trek anything ever made Alex?

And way to be me to that observation Jim!

I agree. No reason they can't have an online poll on their website so people can vote. Iron Maiden is one of the bands that did it and the set was great. Just once they should do it. Yeah...that would be awesome! Make a setlist on Rush.com. That would be amazing...no reason why they couldn't step up and do it. Yeah, there is a reason why they wouldn't do that -- the fans would pick a bunch of songs Geddy can't sing anymore, and a bunch of songs they have absolutely no interest in playing. The only way that idea would work is if the band gave a list of the handful of songs that won't be played, and we had to choose from what's left. I know what you're saying 73, but I want to point out that I don't really buy the whole "Geddy can't sing" stuff. I mean, hear me out. These guys have been playing 2112 on basically every tour, and to me, the "Temples" section is one of the most unreachable songs in terms of how high Ged's voice gets. If he can pull off 2112 (which he can), I don't see how he can't pull off the other stuff. Yes, I understand that some songs may need to be tuned down, or whatnot, but it is possible. 2112 proves that it is still possible to have those tunes (which Ged can't sing) still sound awesome live. The same goes with Circumstances from last tour...it sounded great live, and I was happy to hear it. Don't get me wrong...I know they won't sound exactly as good as the studio recordings...but I would rather hear these awesome classic tunes in a slightly lower pitch, then not hear them at all. Hopefully this makes sense... Here's the deal with that: I don't know if you are a musician or not but they only play those songs tuned a full step down and he STILL has a super hard time not sounding like his throat is going to explode. Do I want to hear all of my favorite songs in death metal tuning sung poorly? Not at all. That music will live on through tribute bands sorry to say. I have one in mind that can play every old song you would ever want to hear note for note. The singing is exceptional as well!

Man that sounds awesome! Before the Sox game tonight I think I'll eat me one or two....deepdishes..... EEEEEEEEEECHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111

I am not even talking about the fuckheads at Wrigley Field! There's your problem. Why anyone pays money to go into that shit hole is beyond me. It's a much more sophisticated crowd at the Cell. Believe me Sir when I say I would rather slam my face in the ass-end of a menstrual skunk no less than 50 times before ever setting foot in that place again. That place and its fandom pisses me off to such an extent I can't help but getting into several fights just trying to get to my seat. Why am I there? To rep me beloved Whitesox of course! And to babysit my Father-in-law.

I don't even take my kids to the ballpark anymore due to all the falling down drunks we encounter on the way. I am not even talking about the fuckheads at Wrigley Field! I didn't even feel comfortable taking my kids to a NASCAR event until they were well into their teens due to well...take your pick. Having to explain why the phrase "I chewed tobaca with yur May" while some shirtless nimrod is hanging all over his sister is considered an inflamatory statement to your 10 year old is a door I prefer not to open. Not just yet. Go be an adult with adults. If you insist on pushing adult tastes on your children just take them to the bar and proceed to bitch about everyone swearing and punching each other in the face over something you wouldn't let your dog bite. I mean get real...... Get a f***ing grip. Leave your kids in bubble why don't ya. Holy shit people. Oh I don't [keep my kids in a bubble] believe me. The point of this thread was some bint cryin' about people acting like adults at an adult function that he brings his kids to. You know what to expect so quit your bitchin'. Punch the ticket -- take the ride. Do what you wish. But when I'm off to the RUSH show I am untucking my nuts and rockin' with my cock out. Do my daughters need to see me in such a state? You make the call.

It's not that they are attached at the hip but I am sure the Boys don't mind folks firing up a fatty before Passage. I mean really. It's a f**k-truck better than dealing with 15K drunken morons. Just makes for a better atmosphere.....

QUOTE (Paulio91184 @ Jul 23 2010, 06:07 PM) due to the low light at times on stage, the fact that he is playing some sick bass line and singing all at the same time, they are reference points. If you look they are all on C keys which gives him a quicker acquisition of the correct notes to be played Bingo!

Bruce Springsteen is pretty much the soundtrack for middle-aged-mouth-breathers everywhere. I am a music lover of all types and sizes but that guy just sucks to no end. Gotta give it up to him for lasting this long and still being able to do his thing at his age....but he thing still sucks bad. Q: You know what you get when you mix "folk" rock and New Jersey? A: Aides.

He's changed Beetlejuice for me, sadly. At least we still have Wenona (spelling?) Ryder. The things I would do to that chick...assuming she hasn't already done all those things to herself. Greasey but awesome. Before I pass judgement I need clearification on this statement: QUOTE According to court records, Jones paid the teen to pose nude for photographs while wearing a cowboy hat. Was the kid wearing the cowboy hat or the perve?

QUOTE (briremo @ Jul 14 2010, 05:27 PM) I read that tourbook post yesterday and it sure as hell sounds to me like we might get some epic stuff! I was shocked at the lengtth of Caravan! What? 7 Minutes? But if this is a concept album writen by Peart, I hope we don't get 40 minutes about how stoopid spiritual people are. He doesn't rail on "people with faith". He rails against people who misuse peoples inherent fears instilled by faith to serve their own purposes.
