EVERYONE knew who they were, they were all over the radio. True. From what i remember in the summer of 1981[ ] The biggest Rock bands were Rush, Van Halen, Journey, Styx and Reo Speedwagon . They sold out Arenas and sold Millions of albums . Now Rush does Not sell even 500,000 albums and can't sell out an Arena in the U.S. . They might be more popular they they have been in a long time ,but nothing like 1981 It annoys the hell out of me that Rush had their peak in popularity at the same time as those cheese dick bands. I think that's part of the reason why some folks think they are just a silly " 80s arena rock band" ..damn you Moving Pictures!! Edit : Van Halen isnt in that group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StellarJetman Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 QUOTE (Silas Lang @ May 17 2011, 10:03 AM) Delusional is right. It's a completely ridiculous notion that Rush would need to be forgiven for anything. I would rather wait and get new material when they're inspired instead of every year or two out of some obligation or going through the motions. The songs are already written.

Spelled "Wytheville" only know this cause my ancestors are from South West Virginia. Great grandfather enlisted in the Confederate army there.. Like i said before and others also, perfectly fine with Rush getting Clock Work Angels done when they get around to it. Although don't want it to be a "Chinese Democracy' fiasco. Which would never happen Rush has way more credibility and better work ethic then Axel Rose and his pseudo version of G&R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddysMullet Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 QUOTE (rushgoober @ May 18 2011, 03:26 PM) Why do you take what I write so personally? Mostly I don't, but the paragraph in question was just too absurd and crazy for me not to respond to. I hate the way that you've turned into a quasi-troll in recent months. I felt that the paragraph in question was designed to mock fans, to make people like me who don't have a problem with Rush's career decisions look stupid and like suckers. It's one thing for you to not like the way that Rush is doing business these days, but that little screed struck me less as a criticism of Rush and much more as an attack on other fans, and I didn't appreciate it.

The Owl Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Just a question for the Mods and Admins... When we actually get closer to the release of the album, and we start getting news about recording, writing, and release info.. Will there be a subforum dedicated specifically to Clockwork Angles as there was with S&A a few years ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was created shortly after I joined up.... There were so many threads about S&A clogging up the main forum, that nothing else was being discussed.
