Kozmo4Rush Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 This is the shirt I get the most comments and thumbs-up from: http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g11/Kozmo4Rush/100_5920-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarizeMe Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 QUOTE (Tommy Sawyer @ Jul 25 2011, 09:15 AM)In public, almost no comments. Among friends who know I like Rush, my shirts get noticed quite often. Pretty much the same with me...occasionally I get the comment from some nobody (who usually would comment on my Maiden tees also) who says "Nice shirt" or "Rush rules". When it comes to my friends, they see a Rush shirt, they think it's me and usually they're right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the masked drummer Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 If i am at a place where musicians are, the probability of getting a compliment increases dramatically. Almost certainly. If I am out in public and not surrounded by musician (or drummers) it's only a 50% chance from my experience... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 of the 7 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I know, I never shut up in this thread But I have a funny story...I've been wearing my baseball jersey quite a bit lately, getting lots of questions about who it refers to. The funniest came from my boyfriend's aunt who is well into her 80's. I told her it was a rock band. "Local?" she asks. "No, from Toronto, but they tour all over the world", I tell her. "Oh, so they're well-known", she says. "Yes". "Well, I'll have to listen to them!" I can't wait for the chance to play her some Rush...now should I start with the softer stuff, or go right to something more lively? Hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merely Space Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Not so many comments directly to me. But I occasionally hear people who know me well muttering to people who don't "No, no, don't ask him about the Rush shirt. He won't shut up if you do."

FeelingUnlimited Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I'm in college, and the other day a girl saw my Time Machine shirt and asked me if I was rushing in a fraternity. A lot of kids wear shirts that say "Rush" and then the name of the frat. At first I'd perk up when I saw them, but now I'm used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL LOLOLOL Omigosh, back at the beginning of the school year when a whole ton of people were rushing for the Greek houses, I saw all these people wearing shirts that said "RUSH" on them, and I would get really excited, until I realized they were just for Kappa Delta, Tri-Del, Omega Psi Phi, etc. Kind of disappointing but I found it really funny. They probably didn't get why this weird girl kept giggling insanely as she passed by them on her bike. |3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethOfSyrinx Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I get more comments when i wear my Rush shirt other than my Rush hoodie.. Barely any since the area i live in is full of uncultured bastards. Once some guy working in a clothes shop walked past me and went: "I love Rush!" And this guy at 6th form collage spoke to me in lesson and was like, "Rush are awesome!" then asked to work with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godot Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 I remember I never used to get comments, and then I bought this awesome Rush hoodie from Rock of America, which only has two stores, both in Illinois, but the hoodie just awesome, the classic naked man against the pentagram or whatever you want to call it (aren't pentagrams upside down?) Anyway, within an hour of buying it and putting it on (come on, who wouldn't want to wear it right away?) I got comments and compliments from everyone, and it hasn't ceased since, which is why I also deem it a lucky hoodie xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 of the 7 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) Got the ultimate comment on my black Rush hoodie last night - had it stolen by the waitress (or at least the staff) of a Chinese buffet we went to last night. I ordered another one (had to go to Ebay as the store no longer has them), but I'll forever feel horrible not knowing the fate of my old one...

sonicjams Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 from time to time i get compliments usually if you are in a more redneck area or a very hipster area you dont get many compliments i have shirts of hip bands like dinosaur jr and the minutemen but i love wearing rush shirts to places where hipsters congregate cause they are all robert christgau wannabes who hate rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Sawyer Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Got a great comment at BW3s tonight at dinner. Someone who worked there (the manager?) came over because he thought I was "too young" to like Rush. We had a short discussion about the special he saw on VH1. Little did he know... . Made me feel great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbertk Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Not usually. Mostly it's just something like "UGH You're so obsessed with that band!!!" Which I am but.. geez.. no need to get angry. It's just a shirt. (To you anyways) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken hawk Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I get comments on my vanity olate (YYZ) people want to know what it means. But i wear a "GOT GEDDY" shirt with no comments at all., same with Rush concert shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangiato Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 I just saw someone at my college wearing a Rush shirt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly D Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Most of the time I get comments. Since I own over 20 Rush-related shirts and have a sweet-ass collection of Rush paraphernalia (and am a 23-year-old young woman- not a typical Rush freak), I get a lot of stares/conversation starters/compliments. Coming home from the Gorge in the SeaTac airport, I got a compliment from some random fellow traveler because I was carrying the new Rush tote that rushchick10 got me for a late birthday present Also at my job I am required to wear T-shirts/jeans/sneakers so obviously my Rush shirts are in full rotation. Almost day I get comments and questions. My Starman water bottle is always at my side as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union 5-3992 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I don't have any Rush shirts, but I usually wear band shirts all the time. The only time anybody talked about it was when someone said, "Do you like Rush" "yeah" "Ok". Or when someone pointed out that that Buddy Guy on my shirt smiling looked way too happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
