ReRushed Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 This article shows exactly why Neil Peart sucks. "It would matter a lot to our fans for us to have that validation. It doesn't matter to me. I've got the success and respect that we've had, and the opportunity to do exactly what we wanted for 35 years, do we need them to make us feel better? No, not at all." Can you believe this is the attitude he has about his fans? So ungrateful... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag2112 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 By Neil saying "Do we need them..." he's not referring to the fans, but the RRHoF... I think Neil is stating that he's vindicated by the bands success -- which is only measured by us, the fans. So who needs the RRHOF? Certainly not us and certainly not Rush. Just my 2 cents.

KillerInstinct Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 QUOTE (ReRushed @ Mar 25 2010, 03:53 PM) Why are you guys sticking up for Neil Peart? because he is a part of Rush. and he is cool because he drives motorcycles and does drums solos and he looks like Keanu Reeves in this picture: http://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/rush/images/albums/vaportrails-a.jpg thats basically it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you misinterpreted his words and made him out to be a d***head when he's clearly talking about the RRHOF and NOT the fans.Seriously do you lose sleep over the fact that Neil Peart doesn't think about you when he's drifting off to sleep. Neil owes you shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Okay, I got out of hand! I'm being totally sarcastic and facetious with some of my Neil Peart posts.

Tony R Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 In fact, he says the band plans to do pre-production on two new songs in the coming weeks, with a tour possibly following. "We're going to put those (songs) together and if they turn out well, we'll maybe even release them (on their own)," he said. "We're saying, what if we do a little songwriting and then a little touring to play those songs, and then get back to the songwriting again? It would be an interesting way to shake up our usual way. "There's nothing I can confirm yet ... these things are immensely complicated and so much involved, all I can say is that we're considering that."

WE'VE BEEN WAITING ALL THIS TIME FOR TWO F*CKING SONGS? If they turn out well, they MAYBE release them? Jeez, don't do us any favors guys. God, I hope that's not true - MONUMENTALLY dissapointing if it is. 3 years since the last album, and then we get TWO songs before another tour? Two words: CASH GRAB!

Tony R Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Note to Neil: f**k releasing two tracks. Preview a few new songs and ideas on the road, get back into the studio in the Autumn (Fall) and gives us a nice 40 minute album for the New Year. Then do a full tour including Europe.

Mara Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 SLAM on Joan Jett! Alexisonfire drummer Jordan Hastings says he figures it's inevitable. "I wouldn't be surprised if it happened within the next couple of years," he said. "I mean, Joan Jett's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I don't know why the hell she's there. I would say Rush definitely deserves to be there more than she does. Guess she's going to have to hit up one of the tour venues this summer and pee on more of Rush's equipment.
