Besides some crazy idiots asking about the first family situation after it happened, which is very old news now anyway...He has a new family and should feel comfortable now. Time to move out of that sheltered existence..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Bay Rush Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I have mixed feelings about this. It's possible that Neil just can't handle the attention... some people are like that. But, on the other hand - yes, he MUST realize that the vast majority of his fans aren't the "crazy ones" that he fears. This is a special event though and I think he should be there... but, Neil is Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunder Bay Rush Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 One more comment about the this whole celebrity thing – Larry Mullen Jr., drummer with U2, will simply NOT sign autographs ever. Period - end of it. To me, that is incredibly arrogant and selfish. I heard him say on an interview that he doesn't sign autographs because some people sell them. So what? So, a few people are trying to make a few bucks on something that other people will pay money for. It’s not illegal or anything. It's not going to affect him or his bottom line. Without those same people wanting his autograph, Mullen’s net worth would be about twenty bucks, rather than the 150 million that he is worth today.

Time to move out of that sheltered existence.....First off, his tragedies were chronicled in the doc. He probably doesn't want to field fan questions from that part of his life. Thirdly, I think Neil's "shyness" was adequately explained in the doc, so either accept it or harbor hostilities against Neil for the rest of his life. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everyone would simply focus on current events rather than the past history, perhaps we could give Neil some "comfort room" that he needs. No need for anyone to relive the past, what the hell does that serve? Nothing at all. I just wish that at this time when RUSH is being recognized in such great fashion, that he could join Alex and Geddy and be comfortable for a change.
