Cheers HowItIs, great pics. How do you get those screen captures? Whenever I go back to look at ones I thought had succesfully saved I end up with just a black screen.

Stewie! laugh.gif

 

Looks like the Rush guys are Family Guy fans. And now Neil has Stewie, Alex has his Barbies and Geddy has Mini Neil. Incredible rock artists like them need sidekicks. tongue.gif

Stewie's the awesomeness. biggrin.gif

 

And, that is very true. Rush does need their sidekicks. And, they are somewhat epic.

 

But, very nice pictures, HowItIs. cool.gif

You may end up with a black screen because the material is copyrighted and won't let you take screen caps with the Print Screen on your keyboard. What I do is play the DVD in my VLC media player, the one with the orange cone as an icon, and do what's called a "Snapshot." It's under "Video" in the main menu. tongue.gif

Well you see, these aren't actual "captures" in the sense of watching a DVD on my computer and grabbing the screen. What I do is put on the Blu-Ray DVD and hit pause when I see something I like. Step a few frames if need be and then I.... take a digital picture! Really. The Blu-Rays make such beautiful freeze frames that I can just snap a pic. I then do a trim and a few adjustments if need be in a photo program and... voila! Not perfect by any means but acceptable. Definitely low-tech, though laugh.gif

Wow, lol, I'd never have known that, they look great for having just taken a snap of the tv screen! Nice one HowItIs! Thanks for explaining it. Thanks also NobodysHeroine for your suggestions too, duly noted!

It appears that Neil is doing a little Geddy thing with the glasses down slightly.

That is adorable. Now Pratt is tempting me again. tongue.gif wub.gif

 

The pic of him peering over his sunglasses is very Geddy-like, indeed. It makes my Neil-temptation even worse, since I love it when Geddy does that. They're both working their charm on me. blush4.gif

I don't like Neil's handlebar mustache. Makes him look MUCH older than what he was. With that look, he reminds me of a character from a 70s TV show that was a couple decades than Neil at the time. A character whose personality and interests are nothing like Neil's. A character that would not like Rush because Rush is waaaaaay too intellectual for him. Yet Neil is reminding me of him.

 

For those of you who are wondering who this character is, it would be Don Ramon from El Chavo del Ocho. Who is pretty much the polar opposite of Neil otherwise- but Neil with this look reminds me of him. Unfortunately.

as you can tell, i do love the mustache. and i generally do NOT like guys with mustaches! but i love the look of all the Rush boys during this era, because it's so over-the-top 70s, and they are all in their 20s and enjoying the whole first wave of success. and neil is so downright lanky.

 

this is also the "first Rush" i remember... it was 1977 and i was in an 11-year-old 7th grader, moving up to the big high school building with all of the older kids. one of the seniors had a locker next to me, and she opened it up and had this 2112-era Rush poster plastered inside... and i remember sneaking a sideways look at it every time she opened that locker.

 

"who ARE those guys? how is their hair so impossibly long? their noses and mustaches so impossibly big? i must find out...!"

For some reason, I really like the second picture to the last on the bottom right. He looks so adorable there. You could just go over and give him a hug. wub.gif

 

I don't really mind the handlebar mustache. But it does remind me of a scene from That 70s Show. tongue.gif

 

Kelso: Well, I like the mustache. It makes me look like an authority figure.

Hyde: It makes you look like a porn star.
