In an acting class we had to do a spoken word piece...So, I read "Red Barchetta". It blew the teacher away. He asked who wrote that great piece of work. He just about had to pick his jaw up off the ground when I told him they were lyrics to a Rush song. Same here. I read Time Stand Still on the last day of school.

mfratt Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 You know youre a Rush fan when you turn off your radio and put your windows down while driving so you can hear the mechanical music, but within 30 seconds, you're itching to listen to Red Barchetta.

This is a great thread... I am such a Rush geek. I have been spinning S&A since the beginning of May. I wake up in the morning and there is always an S&A song in my head.

jkt2112 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 You know you are a Rush fan... when your wife is asking you to come to bed (and not to go to sleep) and you, instead, stay downstairs writing posts on TRF. (BTW, she is pissed again, tonight. The L.A. shows cannot come fast enough for her - no pun intended.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Captain Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 QUOTE (what went wrong? @ Aug 20 2006, 09:49 PM)You know you're a Rush fan when you record snippets of songs as WAV files and use them as the default sounds on your computer. (When I minimize windows, Geddy sings, "Put him down as arrogant" and when I bring the window back up, he sings "Growing up," and then I go into a Subdivisions spiel. I love my recorder...) Okay, so I know this is from like, FOREVER ago, but I really, really, really, really, REALLY wanna know: How do you do that??? You guys are so awesome for thinking of it!!!

GeddysMullet Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 You know you're a Rush fan when every time the announcer in the Toyota ad mentions that the car has power windows, you think how it would be nice if cars really did come with Rush albums.

BL2112 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 QUOTE 11. Neil is the best drummer, hands down (he is!). And no bassist will ever out-bass Geddy (they won't!). Only Jaco can but even gets a run for his money. you know you are a rush dork when 1 you can use rush lines as pick up lines 2 You enjoy soup before a band rehearsal/ or jam thing 3 You yell "play Far Cry" insted of Freebird. 4 You go to Wal Mart at midnight and get the new album for the next day for the bus ride to and from school. 5 you are argue with against a fool to get them to see how great Rush is from your point of veiw. 5 Use Bastille Day lyrics as a study guide for French Revolution test.

Paragon Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 QUOTE (GeddysMullet @ Aug 19 2007, 11:51 AM) You know you're a Rush fan when every time the announcer in the Toyota ad mentions that the car has power windows, you think how it would be nice if cars really did come with Rush albums. Mine did! The guy who was detailing it before they put it on the showroom floor inadvertently left his copy of "Roll the Bones" in the CD player. Imagine my joy the first time I took it out for a test drive...I turn on the stereo and "Bravado" floods the interior. We will pay the price, but we will not count the cost. I was so sold. New criterion: You know you're a Rush fan when the deciding factor in your purchase of an expensive car is the fact that it played the right music when you test drove it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
