grep Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) Thank you Slim for pointing out the archived version of the Geddyboard. Here's a neat post Geddy made in Sept 2001. Which is interesting becasue I think it represented news of the return of Rush. Bookended with today - release day of what is probably their last live album. Read on Interesting as well ... his words posting about the aftermath of 9/11. Look where we are today. PS: Delta Tau Ged! Weapon of Mass Seduction signing out.

grep Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 Have Geddy written anything more recently on that site? The site came down sometime in 03, I think. The index pages work... click around and see... a good portion of it is archived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexMike Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Thanks, I enjoyed that! Geddy *really* needs to write an autobiography. He is quite well-spoken AND well-written! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that too. He should have enough free time now. :) Think of all the great stories from over the years he could share. Heck, he probably has enough funny Alex stories alone to fill a book.

lifeson90 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Back in the glorious day when new Rush was possible. Genuinely made life worthwhile at times. All gone, like smoke in the wind :( 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible airwave Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 That post is 22-23 years old. I was one month away from turning barely less at 21 when 9/11 happened Spoiler and 7 years before I got into . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All gone, like smoke in the wind :( I was watching a PoW tour show on youtube the other day. They were perfect.... Like, I know that it's just a rock band and times change. But the energy, the playing, the technology.....the brotherhood with the other hard core fans down in front ..... I still miss this band. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzy85 Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 I know.... We still have all this music. I will listen to it for the rest of my life. But, they were still out there back then... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamas Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 Thank you grep for reviving this piece (these pieces!) of history. I had no idea there were even other forums for the guys. Why wouldn't there be? But I just never looked. Why, for a band I listened to all my life, did I just simply not look around for more stuff about them? It was all about reading liner notes and the (very) odd article. This feels similar to seeing RUSH Backstage Club Newsletters as an order on the Backstage website and buying it instantly. Thank you very much! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
