How are we in denial for saying we doubt Alex could never be gay or have sexual relationships with one of his bandmates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeminiRising79 Posted April 3, 2008 Author Share Posted April 3, 2008 (edited) Its funny you bring up Alex here, because I just remembered something about him that I thought was very peculiar. Back in '81, I went to the Capital Centre in Largo, MD to see the Moving Pictures tour with a bunch of friends. We saw the first show (of two) and then showed up the next morning to see if we could get lucky and see/meet any members of Rush. Well, lo and behold, here comes Alex with his RC airplane, walking toward the larger part of the parking lot. I, as well as my friends were in shock because we really didn't think we would get much of a glimpse of any of them. So Alex goes about flying his airplane around and pretty quickly it ends up in a tree (a mighty oak?). Some fan decided to go climb the tree to retrieve it. While he was doing so, Alex was talking to his friend and watching the guy climb the big tree. I, like any other infatuated teenage fan would do, just stared in awe of Alex. I had never ever been this close to a real rock star. I had only seen Alex, prior, on the albums and magazines, so I was completely awestruck--I'm sure many of you may relate to this. I really couldn't believe I was actually standing 5 feet from him. I wanted to observe every thing about him, since I was so impressed by him. One of my friends was standing with me during this time--A really good looking kid who was an amazing guitar player. I noticed that Alex kept staring at him in the face. It was no coincidence because I was observing everything Alex was doing. It was pretty bizarre seeing Alex staring at my friend like he was. He couldn't keep his eyes off him. It then occurred to me that Alex might be bisexual (especially since I was pretty confused the first time I saw him looking like tinkerbell in one of the Rush album covers that I owned...I had thought at the time:"My God, not Alex!"). So there you go, maybe he has tendencies, who knows, but it was kind of creepy seeing Alex check my friend out in this fashion.

I have exactly zero problem with bisexuality, but I do think that this kind of speculation is tacky and disrespectful. If anything like that did go on, it was obviously very much in private and no one's business but those who were involved. If you find it fun to think about, fair enough, but don't be surprised that people find your interest in it amusing, peculiar or distasteful. If that bothers you, perhaps you should keep it to yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRocinanteKid Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I don't see why everyone's posting on this thread like "EWWWWWW WHAT THE f**k!!!!???" Either, answer the best you can, have a laugh about it or don't post. Anyway back on subject, I certainly couldn't say what happened back in the '70s, some bands are all open about it, others not so much. Either way it certainly wouldn't change anything about the music side of things and even if they did mess around I would guess it would be with outside parties rather than each other, that could get uncomfortable for sure!
