Still can't watch this without tearing up. Unreal.

 

Are we related?

 

We are brothers with Rush DNA pal! I was showing my daughter and my lips were quivering. She goes "your not crying again are you?" Of course I said NO....then had to admit it was getting to me. I am not sure you can relate at 21 - not enough time to develop a long term relationship / devotion to anyone.

OMG!

Oh My Geddy! LOL!

 

You and I are brothers with Rush DNA FOREVER!!!!

 

Wait! We have so much in common.

 

My 22 year old daughter Zoe lives with me.

 

She is graduating with honors this spring!! Kinesiology Major! 4.0 student!!!

 

I cried like a baby to her on the phone.

 

When I break down I go to Zoe.

 

She is so cool.

 

I sent her the US Army Band "Time Stand Still." She totally loved it. But RUSH isn't her thing my brother.

 

I took Zo to see RUSH twice. She hated it. But at least she saw two Neil Peart drum solos.

 

I took Zo to the "Snakes & Arrows" show in Concord. She cried because the bass pedals went through her tummy. So adorable.

 

But then I remember taking my ex, Zoe and Skylar my other daughter to New Mexico.

 

It was the first show of the "Moving Pictures" Tour. It was amazing, but Zoe, Skylar and my ex wife were totally bored.

 

it sucks my brother but life goes on.

 

I am divorced because of my passion with Rush and music and sports.

 

My girls have both seen a Neil Peart drum solo. I am happy.

 

I may seem over the top but it's me my friend.

 

I was with one woman for over 20 years. No drama.

 

But if I have to live alone for the rest of my life I will.

 

It's not about me.

 

It's just I know I had it made Syrinx. Yet I lost it.

 

So many women. So many Rush Records.

 

Why can't I find "The One" again?

 

 

Perhaps too deep and no one on here gives a shit.

 

I just think "we are only human."

 

My parents are still together. 57 years married. I wanted that.

 

Can't have it all right??

 

 

No complaints.

 

We have awesome daughters.

 

Cheers brother!

 

I'm rambling tonight.

 

I will sign off now.......

 

RUSH ON FOREVER!

 

NEIL PEART RULES!!!!

Everything happens for a reason Earl. We just have to figure out how to navigate through life. There are a lot of miserable couples who are still together. That isn't a better solution. In the end it is all about your kids anyway....and whatever else makes you happy - like music! My family knows nothing animates me more than discussing music. I think I am somewhat annoying that way but whatever. I am who I am.

Hey Earl, nothing wrong with being single in fact it rocks! You get to play Rush whenever you want, sit around in your shorts and drink beer and fart whenever you want!

 

Society puts this expectation on us that we should be "coupled", our friends all get coupled and you feel the pressure. But I think that we are first and foremost individuals, making OUR way in life,not someone else's way.

 

Remember when you "swaggered out of the schoolyard, waiting for the world's applause"? Well, now is the time to find that swagger again my friend and take on the world on your terms.

 

Love yourself, love life, find poontang where you can and above all else love RUSH!

You are amazing my friend. Thank you and I agree. I am not crazy. You know me. I just booked my red eye flight after Zoe's graduation and I am flying to Toronto to see Neil's tribute concert.

I am real. Regardless of my outlandish and zany posts. I'm just like Pat! I love to be creative on here and make people think!

People on here hate me, but I know the love is stronger. So many friends on here. I am family here and I want to buy everyone a drink in some bar before Neil's Tribute.

I am that guy!!

 

I know I am better off without the ex, but I have so many great memories. That's my issue.

I could write about book about our Rush Concert escapades around North America. Again, no one would read it but most of my memories of Rush shows are on here since 2006.

 

LOL!

 

I love being me, and Entre nailed it last week.

 

He knows "The Real Me" like most on here!! The Who?

 

 

It's all about RUSH, not about me.

 

Humans on here HATE ME! It sucks!! But it's life and I know I'm not innocent, but man, I live for Rush and I live for me. Not a woman that's for sure.

 

I have my amazing daughters and I am blessed.

 

Do I wish I was still married to Wendy? I DO!! YES PAT! THAT'S FOR YOU!!!!

 

I've dated more women than Rush albums since 2015 and it sucks. Is the grass ever greener? I really don't think so but my ex brother in law got divorced from Wendy's sister right before the last Rush show at the LA Forum.

 

Oh, you want drama? I lived it man.

 

My heart was crushed, I was still living for RUSH. My ex was going to take me to the cleaners and here I was. At RUSHCON at The Luxe in downtown LA.

 

Getting ready to see the last Rush Concert ever at the LA FORUM.

 

My ex brother in law calls me four hours before the last Rush Show.

 

Telling me he is divorcing Laurie.

I was on the phone with him for an hour.

I love my ex brother in law even to this day.

 

But it was so messed up.

 

I love to "Ramble On." Sorry. Led Zeppelin right?

 

2014 and 2015 sucked.

 

73 knows as do all my friends.

 

So do some of my "Enemies Within." But I forgive you.

 

I just one guy.

 

Passionate about Rush and hey, we are all dealt cards and shite in life.

 

"Face Up" right?

 

I love that song. Many of you hate it.

 

Life goes one.

 

I am happy my friend. This Forum has really helped me out too.

 

73 is amazing and I don't need to kiss his asshole. He's a Yankee fan. The A's will take of them in the ALCS this season. lol

 

If I get banned I will be sad, but like losing the love of your life, hey life goes on.

 

Music is it for me. I've married my music and my merchandise.

 

Just got a beautiful Andrew photo of Neil framed. It's the pic of Neil in "The Trees" on his "Vapor Trails" drum set. acoustic set only.

 

I love how I have ripped VT on her for decades, yet this pic of Neil is so fitting for me.

 

So Neil is in The Trees all dressed in black. He is looking down. It is so sad but so everything for me. It was the same year I met him at his bus.

 

Neil looked like that, yet more like a red bloated faced Johnny Cash. It was so surreal and incredible. Neil's hair was greasy and looked like Medusa with a bad hair day. lol

 

Way before "Snakes And Arrows." Get it?

 

 

I am drinking a Smartwater. I am good.

 

Just being me.

 

Everything happens for a reason my friend I agree.

 

I have everything I need or want in my life, but I can't find love again with a woman.

 

Wendy and I were good, but we still failed.

 

She grew up and I wanted to stay up late and go to rock shows and watch horror movies until 2 am.

 

Damn it.

 

I have no regrets my friend.

 

It's all about May 16th.

 

Cheers.

OMG TIM!!!!

 

You have said it all!!!

 

You and Syrinx Rock. I get it.

 

I am sorry that I am sooooooooooooooo wordy or just on and on and on and on.

 

I have been bullied on here and ripped apart on here since 2006 and I just drink beer.

 

It's been a love hate thing on here but for some reason I have managed to meet so many wonderful people on here.

I am lucky and Tim you are awesome.

 

I think I would like to be loved at lot and hated by a few. Well that is this public Rush Forum in a nutshell. Am I fuckking Austin Powers? LOL!! Hope you get it.

 

Glad I am a dork.

A drummer.

A guy who has had love many times.

But Wendy was it.

Successful business man with my awesome dad.

Yet idiots on here call me a drug addict.

A crazy lunatic.

LOL!

 

Whatever.

 

I love myself. I'm good. Even Entre told me that in a post a few nights ago.

 

My friends get me.

 

You are one of them.

 

It's all good.

 

I want to be a positive force on this public forum and I think I am overall. But when some moron on here who goes after me for being me, I attack.

 

But I've had no drama in many years. Yes.

 

I just type my stuff and it's been all good.

 

I want to be with a woman again, but dude, I am soooooo picky and I will never settle.

 

I love sleeping in my own bed.

Farting, listenings to "Hemispheres" as I go off into "Dreamline" Land. lol

 

 

Lotus Land?

 

It's just endless being a Rush Fan.

 

So yes.

 

I still love my ex wife, but I am better off Tim.

 

 

"The way out is the way in."

 

'It is what it is and whatever."

 

 

I am hoping to retire in two years.

 

If I can I am going to take every Neil Peart lyric and make a screenplay out of it.

 

I have so many ideas racing through my brain.

 

Glad I am not normal. lol

 

 

I really want to write a screenplay about Neil's life and cast Tom Hanks.

But I know it's probably too tragic and too personal.

 

I am just brainstorming on a public forum.

 

I mean know ill will to anyone on here.

 

I am all about Rush Tim.

 

I am flying to the Neil Peart Memorial Concert.

 

It has to be done.

 

It's in my DNA.

 

 

NEIL RULES.

 

Goodnight........

 

 

 

Hope I'm not banned in the morning. But if I am "Half The World" will be happy. "Half The World" will be sad.

 

 

LOL!!!!!!!!

 

 

I don't want that fateful PM from 73 in the morning when I wake up at noon California time. lol

 

On that note I am off to bed.

 

RUSH FOREVER!

 

HATERS HATE! LOVERS PROCREATE!!!!

 

Earl
