pam Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 That link didn't work for me. But I am amazed that it wasn't a picture of zombie something or other and a countdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beefche Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Mirk takes Rush very seriously. No zombies or end of the world talk with him when Rush is being discussed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pam Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 I've been to a Rush concert. Had no idea who they were or what they sang when I went. That was quite a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john doe Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Rush = The Holy Trinity of Rock.Best. Band. Ever.Apparently you haven't heard of Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, or even Van Halen. Rush is good, but probably not regarded by many as 'best'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pam Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Actually I was bored to tears. And it was at the Sports Arena in San Diego. That was almost 30 years ago. I seriously didn't know any of their music but went with a couple of guys who were avid fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 One thing I have learned over the years...Rush fans are a different breed. If you are a fan you are a total fan. No other band in their opinion can ever touch them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Finally!Love these guysMirk, Please tell me you blast Red Barchetta when you're on a chase!OH WOW! Pert has hair!!! I'm a Rush fan. I even forgave them for Roll the Bones - but I did quit listening to them after that.But, I have watched Anatomy of a Drum Solo twenty bazillion times.

Guest Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Can't defend your guys against the facts so you resort to a personal attack? Nice.Rush is like Chuck Norris. You can't compare them to Zeppelin and... gasp, the Beatles. It would be too degrading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendaM Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I testify to the truth of that statement about both the fans and the band.As a Canadian, I have to say, Rush is up there for me, but not an all-time favorite. Has anyone every seen that church movie (can't remember what it's called right now), but it's from the Book of Mormon and there is one actor in it who looks exactly like Geddy Lee.Wish I could remember what story it is (sucks getting old). I'm thinking maybe it was about Korihor.Freaked me out when I first saw it, the resemblance is remarkable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vort Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Rush is like Chuck Norris. You can't compare them to Zeppelin and... gasp, the Beatles. It would be too degrading.I don't know. I don't find it all that degrading to Led Zeppelin when they're compared to Rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be too degrading.You're right, it's probably not fair to Rush to compare them to great rock bands. Let's just say they're..... good. And that's not a slight on them, there are lots of bands who are really crappy. Rush isn't one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
