If you buy products marked at $21.12 no matter what the product is.
If you've edited any Rush related article at Wikipedia
If you have 2112 friends on MySpace
If you hear Rap/Hip-Hop Rush tribute songs and cry, and vow vengence
If you've downloaded every Rush desktop from Powerwindows (Rush fan Site)
You synch up Rivendell or the Necromancer with Lord of The Rings with the volume down and try to find simularities

You know your a rush fan when...

 

1. When you move into a new house or apartment you look in tons of maps to try to find any place called Middletown.

(in fact I live in Ohio and about 10 miles from me is Middletown!)

 

2. In high school shop class you make a 2112 and a star out of plywood instead of a bird house like you were supposed to! ( I'm guilty of this!)

 

3. When you are at the local music store and the first thing you look for is any new 2.gif guitar and drum tab books just to see what songs they have in them.

Thats all I can think of biggrin.gif

You hear Santana playing in the 7-11 and vomit.

Even though 90% of my time spent listening to music is spent on Rush, I like a lot of different music, including Carlos Santana.

You make plans to see them 7 times in less than 2 weeks, even though it goes beyond your budget, rational thought, and all sanity that you thought may have been left...

You take a screenshot every time you notice that your computer clock is at 21:12 (I use the 24hr clock on my computers)

You buy products that include the word Rush.

 

Gatorade = Riptide RUSH

 

Toothpaste = Cinnamon RUSH

 

Shaving Cream = Pacific RUSH

 

you send setlists and tour dates to all your friends even the ones that hate Rush.

 

you can come up with something Rush related no matter what subject is being discussed and sing along . smile.gif
