1 of the 7 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I don't have to feel bad when I mess up singing along to Rush songs now The "oops!" just adds to his cuteness, and I think he'll realize how positive the response has been, from people there and not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the great thing about Rush fans...we take it in stride. Texans do loves them some Rush! Ged's reaction shows he's still havin' fun up there.

sanzo Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I know Rush are near god like in performing but when a rare bloooer happens it can be guite funny I actually laughed and pointed when Neil dropped a stick in Dublin (may 12) cause it was unexpected but funny at the same time, he just threw it up into the air an continued on. The only only blooper I have seen similar to the one in the topic was in glasgow 07, Geddy said "we'd like to do another song, this is called hold your fire" it was mission from HYF It makes it all the more fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUP1771 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 For a second, I thought it might have been cringeworthy, but instead it was funny, in a good way. I liked how he handled it with the "oops", as well as right before the following line that sounds like, "Now!" It was a good save in my opinion. You rock Geddy!

Tigershark2112 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 How do you mess up the opening line from a song you've been playing for 30+ years? He must have been pretty that night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broncos730 Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 that's too funny! I'm laughing WITH him on that one. Halfway through i'm sure he's thinking 'oh shit' and how do I recover? I guess sometimes the transitions between dressing room chit chat to playing live can be a bit abrupt. Love it, Ged. No worries! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
