No wonder Neil shys away from his fans. eh.gif

I happen to know that Neil loves the attention and it makes him feel like the big stud that he is to read this thread.

 

So there.

Agreed. Good pics of Pratt  biggrin.gif

Someone posted this on FaceBook and...well.... it elicited a gasp and sigh.

Those muscles!!!!  wub.gif  cool.gif

Oh, and do you notice the scar from the smallpox vaccine? Everyone from our generation has them. I thought it was only in the US but apparently Canada did the mass vaccination thing, too.

I have this one on a refrigerator magnet!

I am going to find out where you live,

break into your kitchen,

and take that magnet.

You better hide it.

I was looking at the Presto tour book today and my eye was drawn to this pic:

My loyalty to Geddy is steadfast, but wow. Drummer arms. tongue.gif wub.gif

I couldn't help but admire this. I mean seriously, just look at him. wub.gif

 

Oh, I made your night? That's good to know. tongue.gif

 

Neil's the perfect human model. biggrin.gif

Let us know how that works out.....

 

I was listening to Tai Shan a lot recently because the sentiment of a place singing to one is something I can really grok, especially when I'm in Hawai'i (which sings to me). I found a picture of the mountain in the song. Just to remind us that there are drummer muscles in the legs, too wink.gif

I'M A PRIME MOVER!!!

With this post, I will be, anyways. laugh.gif

So my big goal was to save my 500th post for this thread, because it is made of so much win. (Not to mention some pretty smokin' photographs.)

 

And so, on 21/12, at 21:12, I post this.

Along with this WIP picture of Pratt.

(It's.. uh.. kinda sketchy. I'll update when it's done lol.. But that's all I have so far. D: )

 

Happy RUSH Day!

Neil Peart does, indeed, rule!!!

Even Neil himself is happy, behind that ugly watermark. :3

Nice, CM! cool.gif

 

Favorite picture of Pratt from this past tour... have to post because it goes so well with the expression in the other one

LOVE to see him smiling and enjoying himself behind the kit. wub.gif

Darned... watermarks..!!

But at least this one's not smack over his face.

http://i52.tinypic.com/351z3w0.jpg

(I'm sorry, I'm so obsessed with his smile because it's such an adorable rarity when he's behind that set.)

I think it's funny how he's almost always looking to Lerxst when he smiles like that. There was a photo where Al was making a bizarre face and Neil looked pretty darn amused. I need to find that..!

..Those are good ones I failed to see. Thanks! I don't think I've ever seen that second one. Hee~

But I found the one I had seen.

I don't much care for Houston but Alex's expression makes me grin, too. laugh.gif

 

You beat me with that edit!!

Third one is made of so much win! wub.gif

I came across this a while ago. It's so true. cool.gif

 

http://i1031.photobucket.com/albums/y371/Priestess-of-Syrinx/Rush%20Demotivational%20Posters/Neil_Superhuman.jpg

 

In the words of Jack Black in Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage when discussing the song "La Villa Strangiato": "Just eerily precise. I bet if you went in with a computer, Neil Peart would be right on the beat to like an atom. At least that's what it sounds like when you're listening with the headphones. You're like, 'He's not even human!'" laugh.gif

yes.gif

 

I have a theory that Neil has 2 extra arms but they are invisible and only emerge when he's playing the drums laugh.gif

I came across something so fabulous in Neil's book Roadshow that I just had to share it with you ladies. ;D

QUOTE (Neil Peart)
(Writing that he's never understood why the audience at Rush shows is predominantly male...) It's a mystery to me, although it does seem that the female fans we do have often understand our music in the deepest possible way, appreciating not only its technicality, but its passion, too. They are often more sensitive to the lyrics - which naturally pleases their author!

(I squee'd a little when I read that. But continuing on...)

QUOTE
Perhaps because of their scarcity, I always loved to see females in the audience singing along, or air-drumming, or even dancing. However, given the complexity... in the music - no mindless twitching to a metronomic beat.

And just when i thought I couldn't adore this man even more -- he proves me wrong.

I want to write him a letter. "Dear Mr. Peart, I was dancing through the entire show!! I couldn't stay still and just listen!!"

 

I've had Roadshow less than 36-48 hours and I'm already a quarter of the way through it. Sooooo good.

Oh, Neil. You are incredible. wub.gif

 

Crap, I'm being tempted again! ohmy.gif

 

Anyway... ph34r.gif

 

I have three of Neil's four books; I still need to get Roadshow. Especially after reading this. cool.gif

 

I won't be seeing Rush in concert for another three months now, but I will certainly be rocking out at the show. Neil may not be able to see me, but I'll be enjoying that music as if it were the last day on earth. Singing along, air-drumming and dancing. 1022.gif

 

And again, you have the most epic avatar ever, Christine. Geddy!!! tongue.gif
