Rush in TV commercial

Recommended Posts

A&E was on the TV on Tuesday (mid- to late- afternoon) in the datacenter "command center", I'm listening to CA (still) - and one of my co-workers gets my attention. "Hey, Rush", she said. And there was a TV commercial for Rush - now on tour...coming to a city near you....get the new album... Then, the VW commercial comes on.

 

And the person I relate to is the guy in the crosswalk - yeah! 1022.gif - as I'm standing in the datacenter with hands raised...as if to fly...and my co-workers looking on. is she okay? unsure.gif

part. it's early.

Sounded perfectly normal to a MA ear. laugh.gif

 

"Paht" would have also been an acceptable alternative.

I love it! Although, everyone that knows I'm a Rush fan is either calling me or asking me if I've seen it.

When the band is going to retire, they will become the most popular band, because everyone that like them secretly will suddenly express their affection, like some controversial artist who get more credits when he die then when he was alive...

Exactly. I've been saying this for years.

Just saw it on one of the games now, my parents called me in and said that was me driving that Passat air drumming to FBN!! laugh.gif my parents know me too well.

Somehow, in some way, all RUSH geeks of the world are slightly cooler because of this commercial.

 

Still dosn't mean we'll be getting the chicks, though.

Saw the same commercial. They're getting some heavy rotation; I've seen it about 5 or 6 times today. During the Pats game, TS was playing at the stadium in Buffalo.

 

Rush is everywhere!

Just saw it, too! Parents said that it was me in about a decade. lolol..

All my friends said it should have been me in that commercial. I've been air drumming to Rush in the car for 27 years now. Been busted just like that guy many times too. laugh.gif

I mentioned the commercial at a meeting this morning and the entire room turned to look at me and said they all thought of me when they saw it. blush4.gif

 

I think I've made an impression. Obviously, I'm doing something right! Everyone in my life hears Rush and thinks of me. And, I'm not alone, I'm sure it happens to most of you too. biggrin.gif

As both a die-hard Rush fan, and a Passat owner, I have been that guy about 1000 times...

I have to admit, I tried today on the way home while listening to "Caress of Steel".
