safetygirl2112 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Is the little boy in the Distant Early Warning video Geddy Lee's son, Julian? I never heard of this until I stumbled across a website that claimed this as fact. I have googled and found other sites that say no, so please could one of you Rush gurus enlighten me? I so love Geddy. He is sooo hot!! I have loved him since I was 13 years old. I am so happy to have found other women who worship his hotness as well. (Just keep in mind, he is mine - all mine!)

safetygirl2112 Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 Thanks, Jaye! Does anyone out there know for sure? Don't worry, jaye, I will share...if I have to... Let's face it, Geddy is too hot to be selfish! I just hope his wife knows how lucky she is! I did finally get to see a pic of Geddy's daughter, Kyla Avril. I guess she is a big fan of Gilmore Girls and her awesome Dad watched each episode with her. Last year, he took her to the set, met Sebastian Bach, and agreed to be extras in one of the episodes (see Link below). How awesome is that? http://www.rushisaband.com/display.php?id=839 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanaceaFish Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Oh yeah, that is kinda awesome, even though I don't watch Gilmore Girls... Welcome to TRF, safteygirl2112!! This is a great place to be for sure!! Now...Would anyone here happen to have any pix of Gedd's son?? I mean his daughter is adorable, so surely his son is too???

safetygirl2112 Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 Love your moniker, PanaceaFish! I have a 14-year-old daughter named Jacqueline (Jacqui) Panacea! She loves her middle name and the song it comes from! C'mon, does anyone know if the darling little boy in the Distant Early Warning video was Geddy's son, Julian? Inquiring minds (and Geddy lovers) want to know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquiring minds (and Geddy lovers) want to know! I know the answer. At first, the scuttlebutt was that it was Julian in the video. Then we heard that was just an unfounded rumour, not to be believed. This postition lasted for several years: "No, it's not Geddy's son in the video. How do such wild rumours get started?" Even the Rush FAQ says it's not Julian. But it is Julian. How do I know? Read the book Chemistry. The author has a quote in which Julian himself talks about the filming of the video, climbing on the missile, and playing Neil's drumset when the cameras weren't rolling. I'll find the quote and get back to you. But it is Julian. (This would also explain Geddy's reaction to the video screen when the video was played during concerts. He seemed preoccupied with staring at the screen during that song; probably missing his little boy while he was on the road.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cover girl was a then-unknown model named Paula Turnbull, supplied by the agency Ou la la. The man in the background is actually Hugh Syme.

fawn2112 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Well while we're asking family questions, does anyone have a screen cap of Julian and does anyone have a picture of Ged's wife. I've never seen a picture of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassTheAmmunition Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 The boy in the DEW video is NOT Julian as confirmed by Geddy himself in an interview. I will find a link to it, give me some time Edit: and here is the link CLICK and if you are pressed for time, just read the comments on the RIAB right under the Rockline Interview link regarding Julian.

GeddyRulz Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I originally thought the answer was no, but then what about the quote from Julian himself, reminiscing about making the video? That can't be explained away... it clearly indicates that Julian was there, and climbed aboard the rocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimpleKindMirror Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 This also reminds me of a discussion long ago regarding the Boys being in an episode of Mayberry RFD, way back in the early days, as mechanics at Goober's Garage. This was refuted and laid to rest by some "aw-thor-i-tay", but does anyone remember that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
