Lorraine Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Life does go on. True, but of course for many of us the band have been so important, it's hard to imaginelife without them. I'm still hoping it's somehow not over. We in Europe never got a chance to say "Goodbye" You can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

presto123 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 (edited) Geddy and Alex really should continue their musical careers without Neil. And if Neil has a problem with it, then it's his problem and not Ged and Al's. In fact hey, the song Anthem clearly says. "Live for yourself, there's no one more worth living for." Frankly, if Neil does have an issue with any sort of solo projects or solo tours, I'd like to say to him "So you expect Geddy and Al to just bend to your will and never play another note of music again just because you're retired? Doesn't that go against what you wrote in Anthem and Something For Nothing? All that jazz about living life they way you want to?" Why would Neil object to solo projects or tours? He has no say in that anyway. I just don't ever want to see the guys play with another drummer under the Rush name. They should have just announced the last tour as a farewell tour. It would have ended a lot of questions and speculation. They didn't announce it as a farewell tour because Geddy and Alex made it clear that they are both not done. With Rush they are. At least live that is. Edited July 16, 2016 by presto123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytserush Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I haven't been able to listen to them since the R40 tour ended, without feeling sad. It's weird considering I used to listen to them all day long for weeks on end. i always feel pretty happy whenever I listen to them. Celebrate the moment. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Neil is out to try and stop Alex and Ged from solo projects, he hasn't in the past. The dude's just old and tired. He's worked hard to give us great music for over 40 years, has a daughter, and wants to retire. Everybody has to retire eventually. Alex and Geddy can keep on doing solo projects if they wish to continue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a wasted "if" because IF anything, Neil would wish them luck. And bringing up lyrics from songs 40 years ago like they're his guiding force for the rest of his life? Come on.

I'm still hoping it's somehow not over. We in Europe never got a chance to say "Goodbye" If it's been this hard to imagine them retiring after 40 awesome years ... a lifetime really... Imagine what it was like for Beatles' fans in 1970? I mean, up until John died everyone was obsessed with them getting back together (and for some, even after that!). Imagine what a Beatles message board would be like in 1971... Talk about being in denial about a breakup! Haha!:) sorry just random Sunday morning thoughts... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
