RUSHHEAD666 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Oh and one more thing! I am glad and proud to be a Rush Maniac. I know many on the planet have seen Rush over 100 times. I'm at a solid 60.But it's not always about the numbers. I am not trying to sound pompous but I am the biggest Rush Fan on the Earth. I even have proof. lol I went to the Rush Induction in LA with my EX Wife. We were walking to the venue and we bumped into Jack Blades from Night Ranger.Well this is the Rushhead I wanted to be with when I met Neil.I also totally love Night Ranger and I am friends with Brad Gillis.So it's funny.We bumped into Jack and we just started talking like I knew him for many years.I was wearing my RASH Tee that night. After I told him my name he's.... "Wow Earl great shirt, I bet you are stoked to see Rush get inducted!" I said, "Heck yes dude, I am so pumped, it's about f***ing time!" Jack laughed and said "I know well overdue." I told Jack that I had seen RUSH 60 times since 1984.Jack was blown away! He said to me.... "Wow Earl, you are the world's biggest Rush fan! So I'm going in early right to watch soundcheck! I'm going to tell Geddy, Alex and Neil that their biggest fan is here to watch you get inducted!" Jack was soooooooooo nice!!! I will never forget that moment as long as I live!!! I am very proud that my black California plate with yellow letters says N PEART. I selected that personal plate over four years ago. I love that I have Neil on my plate and I am going to keep this on all of my cars going forward. I have 7 RUSH plates since 1986. But the N PEART plate is so special to me. You may think I'm crazy but it's soooooooo positive now. It's a homage to the greatest drummer and lyricist in the world. When I am in my car people honk at me.People wave to me. Give me devil horns. I was at a gas station and a Rush fan couldn't believe my plate. He took a picture of it. Some Rush fan saw my car parked in front of my brother's house.She took a picture and put in on Facebook.Telling everyone that it's an amazing homage. So judge me all you want. I know many of you on here love me. As for those of you hate me and wish 73 would ban me? That's your fuckking problem. I'm awesome. I'm good. RUSH RULES!!!!!!!!! Lovers embrace me.Haters wanna face me?Let's go?I'm not scared of any of you bullies."The Enemy Within" is you.I am of peaceful mind. Unless you idiots fuckk with me. Just be cool and leave me alone. "Leave That Thing Alone." Take care of yourself and your family.Take care of your health and your safety. If you hate me. Please just block me or put me on ignore. I love my friends on here. I'm a lucky soul. I'm not a maniac JB. I'm a man. I'm in love again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHHEAD666 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 41 Minutes? Not a math wizz... I prefer "61 Seconds." Signed, The Outfield Play Deep Dude Not only did I meet Neil on the Vapor Trails Tour, I also followed his tour bus down Treat Blvd in Walnut Creek Ca into Concord Ca. I can't remember the tour but I had my daughter Zoe in the backseat. I think it was "Snakes And Arrows" Tour. I followed his bus all the way to the Pavilion. I was on the fuckking cell phone with NOBODY'S HERO! It was Cindy from Colorado!!!I called her while following Neil's bus! She was typing everything I said onto this very forum as I was right behind the bus and motorcycle trailer. For all I know Neil probably wasn't even on the fuckking bus.But there I was in all of my "Everyday Glory!" High speeding it behind Neil. My license plate at the time was YY2112Z. I was that fuckking maniac JB. I remember speeding up Ygancio Vally Road to the Concord Pavilion. Talking to Cindy Nobody's Hero! I miss her by the way! Poor little Zoe was in the backseat keeping cool. I drove up past Neil's bus. I moved over into the fast lane and passed the bus. I honked and cut the bus off hoping the driver would see my license plate. In a few minutes the driver made a hard right into the Pavilion parking lot and drove up the hill to the backstage parking lot. Not sure if I ever told anyone on here this story. Yep!! Another incredible memory. You can judge me all you want. I am fuckking lucky mother truckers. RUSH FOREVER! Probably wasn’t on the bus as he was often known to have ridden his bike to the arenas. At least you stalked the bus driver! :P HAHAHAHA! Duh! I knew it buddy. Stalking the bus driver was FUN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those dudes seem cool anytime I see any press (in mags or vid) on them. I saw them open up for Living Colour way back in ‘91 or ‘92 on some uni campus green. For free! General admission barbarism but managed to slide to the front! Yay! Yeah, I love Living Colour and was there for them but King’s X were pretty good. At the time I only knew a couple of their songs.

Draco Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 After the Snakes and Arrows tour in 2007 at the Gorge, I drove back to Seattle to stay the night at a Holiday Inn. Right there was Neil's tour bus. I however, was hella tired and went to bed. Work up the next morning and the Tour Bus was gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMontanaSKY Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 (edited) Never met him, am fine with that. Here's why- in 2001 I unexpectedly met another favorite musician of mine and it was a very underwhelming experience (not bad, just lame.) The lesson there- musicians are human beings who also need to play the "stardom" game to make money. They "clock in" for work just like the rest of us- practice sessions, interviews, performances, etc. is the musician's "job". The old saying about this matter is "Don't meet your heroes." Give yourself the gift of preserving the image/experience of their work, without having to experience them as flawed human beings.

Give yourself the gift of preserving the image/experience of their work, without having to experiencing them as flawed human beings. Not true with Geddy and Alex. I have met them both, and they are super down-to-earth, and just plain wonderful. I used to see Alex quite often at The Orbit Room. (Once having a shot of Tequila with him), and my ex and I won a radio contest and had breakfast with Geddy during the MFH promo tour. To your point however, Geddy, my ex Julie, and I had a wonderful conversation about non Rush stuff. Her son and Geddy's daughter are the same age, so they were talking about kids, and Geddy and I had a great baseball conversation. The thing that impressed me, is that Geddy knows every World Series champion from the early 20's on to today, not only that, but if that champion had a nickname, he knew that as well. (Murders Row, The Big Red Machine, The Family, etc). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give yourself the gift of preserving the image/experience of their work, without having to experiencing them as flawed human beings. Not the case with Kings X...three of the nicest, most humble gents I have ever met. The wife and I first saw them in Germany back in 2009....my wife is confined to an electric wheelchair, and at the end of the gig they did their usual informal meet n greet with fans...as there was a couple of steps up to the area where they were doing it, we decided just to go back to the hotel and turned around...a second later there was a tap on my shoulder and it was Gerry Gaskill the drummer.....he asked us if we would mind waiting a little seeing as my wife couldn't get up the stairs...to cut a long story short, they all came down, posed for pictures, gave us some swag and spent a couple of hours (I kid not) just chatting about anything as if we were old friends...couldn't believe it. A few years later we decided to combine a holiday in the USA with catching them live.....first saw them in Milwaukee and when we went in, Gerry recognised us from years before and made sure we got down to the front and got his drum tech (Chris, a topper of a guy) to make sure we were ok......afterwards we had a lock in and ended up drinking with them and their road-crew till the small hours. A few days later saw them in Chicago....we didn't realise at that time that you needed ID to get into US clubs ( we weren't asked in Milwaukee) and they weren't going to let us in...again Gerry heard what was happening and okd us going in....a bouncer was assigned to us to make sure my wife was ok and we got backstage again. In this case, my musical heroes didn't just meet my expectations but greatly exceeded them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrinx Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I have met Geddy and Alex. And I have been in the same room as Neil, acting nonchalant and paying no attention, while he signed a stick for me - he was dealing with my sister at a photo lab. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
