LeChuck Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 One more random photo I stumbled on for the first time tonight. I'd love to know the story behind this one too. Dressed up in tennis attire to play Minimoog and glockenspiel in the middle of a dirt field? I think this is at Rockfield Studios in England, maybe recording Xanadu. My guess would be the intro to AFTKCould be. I've heard/read the descriptions of them playing outside of the studio, with Alex walking around between the mics as he played the classical guitar. I guess it would completely change my mental image though if I knew they were dressed like this ;) I always pictured them in their kimono outfits of the time (although who knows - maybe they never wore those things outside of photo ops). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a little disconcerting knowing they wore the same gym shorts as me in high school when they recorded AFTK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HemiBeers Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Geddy had a book signing last week in Pittsburgh and put up this photo and story on Instagram- I love the Human Blood label! . Al is wearing the same dorky sweater with the sequin musical notes that he wore in the Laura Secord Secondary School gig video (around 1:46) Looks like something his mom bought him for Christmas. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueschica Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Danforth and Pape, the t shirt place, put this up the other day in honor of UK Mother's Day. It has their logo on it but is an actual photo from 1982. I love it! "This wonderful photo was taken at the Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto in November 1982 on the The New World Tour. It shows Geddy, Alex and Neil with their beloved and extremely proud Mums." ❤️❤️❤️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
