JohnRogers Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 All right kats and dawgs! What would RUSH think of TRF blah-blah-blah…but it wasn’t always that way. Back story time. In each of our own little circles around the Earth we are the noted RUSH experts. That will get you a discounted bag of peanuts at an Expo’s game! Yet when I came here in 2008 I sought ENLIGHTENMENT. Surely they must be things I DID NOT KNOW or myths. What myth aboot the band was busted when you first came here to learn from the assembled BRAIN TRUST??? I’ll go first. I learn Neil is not a hermaphrodite which is not why he is leery of getting close to strangers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) That they were all drug-free. And then I found out about the Barbie groupies. :sigh: Edited April 15, 2016 by Lorraine 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy's Soul Patch Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) I learned that Rush's music is not an elaborate and cryptic analysis of the effects of psychotropic drug use.....:smoke: Edited April 15, 2016 by Geddy's Soul Patch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandydog Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I was actually amazed that a great number of Rush fans, on here at least, seem to not really like the band that much. :o 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apetersvt Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I used to think that Geddy's double neck Rick was a 6 string guitar as opposed to the 12 string guitar that it is (coupled with the bass). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a more a myth or a misconception? I guess it is the odd way the tuning pegs are positioned on it that it always appeared to be a 6 string. Was thinking it was a 6 string for about 25 years until someone posted something about it being a 12 string. So it was a misconception on my part.

BassMasterGeneral Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 What would RUSH think of TRF blah-blah-blah… Hey that was my thread! Anyway I figured they disliked touring with KISS, just because their music is less than substantial, but apparently, they liked em a lot. lol.
