2112Zoso Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 You do know..theres bands out there besides rush? No wonder why Neil Peart hates all of you, you can never look forward, you always have to look back and hold on to this band like it's the only band to have walked the earth.
NeilPeartFan2112 Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Yes, I know this, thank you. Even though Rush is my favorite band, I still listen to about 80 other bands that I have come to love over the past few years. Being only 17 years old, I think this is a critical point in my life to listen to music that I enjoy and that will define who I am. Sure I own every Rush album and a huge portion of them on vinyl, but I don't worship them and listen to them 24/7. As many Rush fans know, being obsessed (or whatever you call it) or not, there is no denying that there really isn't another band out there that compares to them. I respect them for making music that was practically unheard of before they began writing it, and for making it the way they wanted to. That is what I love and respect them for, not for being an over obsessed groupie. Also, I for one don't wish Rush would go back to the past with their music. One of the things I look forward to most with a new Rush album is hearing something I have never heard before, and they can do it time and time again. So if you ask me, you can stick your petty little stereotype where the sun don't shine, and think twice before making generalizations.

Slime Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Agreed. One of the best things about Rush is that they'll continue making good records while other bands who played 25+ years ago will live on past success. Makes being a fan worthwhile.

Finally, I know the reason. I just love it when someone comes to a Rush forum to tell us all how silly we are. It really puts things in perspective.

Rush fans are always wondering why Neil Peart hates them so much... glad I could finally shed some light on that issue. The fact is, most of you are too afraid to actually listen to "newer" music that's not from the stone age.
2112Zoso Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Don't get me wrong, I love Rush. I own every cd, and have boughten even the shitty material they have put out. But the fact remains..most Rush fans are damned annoying, and its no wonder why the the bands drummer hates you all.

Also, I'm TRYING to overcome my fears, but...but...<chin quivering> It's SCARY out there! OMG, this is hilarious.

Would you like me to keep going? Man, dipshits... If they get shotdown, they can't accept it.
2112Zoso Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Yeah, your guys lack in variety of music is very hilarious. Daveyt...just stop trying. "JEALOUS" and just quoting someone without saying anything.... comeon man, a retard could come up with better responses then that.
