Location - 6752 Hollywood Blvd, near McCadden Pl. Traditionally, the recipients show up for photos and a short ceremony. According to the site: QUOTE The celebrities listed below will appear in person on Hollywood Blvd or Vine Street to receive their stars. This type of thing doesn't seem like RUSH, but NP lives about 25 minutes from there, so, I guess we'll see what happens. They have to be in New Mexico 4 days later...

It sounds more like a Management thing to me... the boys are too modest to go outta their way to make a spectacle of themselves like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenken Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Ive read up on this before. They do have to pay for it, but its something that you do have to be offered first, so its still quite an honor. Not everyone can just shell out money and get a star obviously. Ill bet this has a lot to do with them being in i love you man, and also mentioned in the movie adventureland, played on various popular TV shows such as the sopranos. Without all that Im not sure this would have ever happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They dont do that unless its a solo act like michael jackson, which it just so happens that rush is getting their star on the 1 year anniversary of MJ's death.

ReflectedLight Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 hollywood walk of lame. there's no honor in having your a star cemented in the ground especially when it seems that anybody and everybody gets a star these days. you couldn't pay me to visit LA.

Ppl here dismiss it bc Rush hasnt yet been recognized in the hall of fame. And believe me I think they deserve, but it sure as hell does mean something. I think the issue with Rush is even though they are as good as they are, they havent really sparked any sort of a movement in music. They've influenced many popular musicians, and did it all on their own terms, but if you look at what they've done, they've always been followers. They started doing prog rock when it was already being done years before they got into it. They tightened up their song writing when it was already being done, they got a much more 80s sound after bands around them had already been doing it for years. They then got into grungs, AFTER bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam came around. They've never really been innovators, thats whats kept them out of the hall of fame. And it is a great honor to get in that. This star I dont think has a lot to do with their music itself, but rather where they've been recognized in TV and film.

Yeah, definitely their TV work that got them there.. You need to educate yourself on the concept of "influences" in music, then re-evaluate Rush's position in the world of rock music.

Your post is clearly useless if you cannot understand the difference between influence and innovation, which is exactly what the hall of fame looks for. You're another rush tool that is unable to see things as they really are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
