Hey Gemini - in your fantasy land, while Neil is going down on you ask him if he has a copy of the new CD that he'd be willing to give to you.

His answer would be, "mrrm mmph hmm mrph mm mrmmmph."

 

Translation: "Once I'm done, there's a copy in my pants."

And I notice a few of them have disappeared from the forum now... 

Let's hope this thread disappears too.

Ok, now try to keep an open mind here by what I'm about to suggest.

First, choose the Rush member you primarily gravitate to, for whatever reason(This would be a member that you are mostly in awe of (if you are equally in awe of 2 or more, exclude yourself from this test).

The setting: Lets say you happen to be out one night at a Toronto lounge/bar off of Younge Street (in close proximity to Massey Hall) with the Rush member you are in utmost awe of, and his wife. After having a few drinks and strong conversational bonding, the said Rush member looks at his watch noting that the time is already 21:12. He subtly suggests that you join him and his wife at his sprawling suburban Toronto mansion. He says that he will drive since his Audi/BMW is better in the voluminous amounts of snow that has recently fallen from the bruised and sullen stormclouds above. You agree and gingerly hop in the back seat and take in the surreal experience, whilst caressing the rich Corinthian leather and shining steel of the interior.
After arriving at the mansion, the three of you entre the main den, sipping cognac (or perhaps The MacCallan) on the large C-shaped couch that encompasses the cozy, roaring fireplace that is automatically actuated by the bristling energy given off by human proximity. In a dreamlike state, you gaze up at the wall and see the gold and platinum records and the vast collage of Rush album covers. You see a magnificently stuffed animal in the likeness of the Snowdog. You see the work of gifted hands that grace this strange and wondrous land. It dawns on you that you're living every Rush fan's dream.
The said Rush member then suggests that you join him and his wife upstairs in the Master bedroom. You gaze up at the spiral stair, and then to the Rush member where you notice his hungry eyes, and open mind. Are you prepared to indulge in both sides of the hemispheres or do you politely decline, suggesting that the hour is late and you feel you've got to move, (yes, you do?) Or do you proceed, tricked by circumstances?

I tell them I will join in, but only if chicken salad is involved. atickhum.gif

Never mind chicken salad, how about strawberries?

And people wonder why Neil Peart has several armed guards with automatic rifles surrounding him at nearly every moment while touring.

Excuse me, while I kiss this guy.

Because I'm bored. . .

 

To the uninitiated, this classic thread is some of Gemini's "finest" work.

 

The only problem is that the quotes are difficult to decipher because it was made before the board upgrade two years ago.

The early, pre-tour Yukon Blade Grinders are victims to this as well. However you can buy the hard copies, which include illustrations
