NobodysHeroine Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 In honour of Thanksgiving, I'll do the liberty of stating that I am incredibly thankful for this Canadian trio. I've been a fan for three years, and can honestly say that no other band makes me as happy as this one does. As a buddy of mine once said, Rush is awesome because of their music, their personalities, just their overall existence. Getting into the band was definitely one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've found a musical group I can listen to when I'm happy, upset, inspired, need inspiration, or just want to relax. Rush is the voice of many music fans, including me. I'm filled with such happiness whenever I see the signed Rush drawing I got back from my September 18 show. http://i1031.photobucket.com/albums/y371/Priestess-of-Syrinx/RushSig_zps57fa33e7.png It's been two months, but oh, my Ged. I still can't believe it. I CAN'T. :') What are your thoughts, fellow Rushians? Why are you thankful for Rush? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetersvt Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I am thankful that they are a band that have been true to themselves, never sold out, worked hard, provided inspiring lyrics, dedicated, always gotten along and have always had the 'team' mentality, and rocked out. Cheers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laughedatbytime Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I am thankful that, as they approach their 60s, they are still writing great music. and performing at an incredibly high level. so that I can share their live performances with my teenage son.

Babycat Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I agree with everything both apetersvt and laughedatbytime said - only minus the teenage son. I haven't got one of those..! :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 As others have already mentioned, I'm thankful for Rush's good humour, fantastic, passionate music (meaning, music that comes from themselves, not 'encouraged' by record labels or other entities), great musicianship, the new music and tours they keep blessing us with, their 'normal' personalities......Oh, there's so much to be thankful for! One more thing I'll add is that Rush is my 'safe' music. If ever I find myself in a weird situation (maybe I've just witnessed something upsetting, or had a bad at work, or am feeling mopey), Rush music immediately makes me feel better. I feel 'safer' with it. I don't really get that feeling with a lot of other bands - I probably bring the boys' decent personalities in to the equation - but Rush music fits my life so well. It makes me feel good, and I'm thankful for this. I, too, am so happy to have Rush in my life! :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Bay Rush Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Dude, Great drawing... love the part of Big Al hanging off of Neil. So perfect. I'll bet they really and truly appreciated your efforts in the artwork. Nice going! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColdFireYYZ Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I'm thankful for all the great music that they've created, and for the 3 excellent shows that I've attended since becoming a fan a little over 3 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastille Dave Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I'm thankful that they were making their greatest music during my musically formidable years of the late 70's/early 80's, making me a fan for life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas7 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Just when I was at my lowest ebb in 1980, I heard Circumstances for the first time and it described my situation perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
