Moderator YamaHead Posted July 28, 2004 Moderator Posted July 28, 2004 Now I really don't have anything against Pete's James Dean hairdoo :wink: But, for me, the mullet thing started about 25 years ago when I 1st heard RUSH on the radio.....been a fan ever since. Here's one of "The Professor" back in the day...... & this is what he looks like today :shock: ...... Gotta hand it to Neil Peart.......after 30 years, he's still twirlin' the sticks 8) I've listened to these guys for over 25 years, & have yet to get tired of 'em 8) .......but listening doesn't even scratch the surface, compared to seeing 'em LIVE.....Peart is a Phenominal Drummer & lyricist :tu He's also an avid Motorcyclist 8) .......rides a Beemer......& a couple of years ago, he did a 55,000 mile tour of North America :shock: , trying to find some purpose in life after his wife & daughter were killed :cry: ....appearantly it worked as he has since wrote a book & Rush is now doing a 30 yr. Anniversary tour :wink:
Moderator YamaHead Posted July 28, 2004 Author Moderator Posted July 28, 2004 Here's another one of the band back in the Early Days....... Appearantly Geddy Lee is a Die-Hard with his Mullet......as evident of this more recent pic....... I've seen these guys 3 different times in concert & I gotta say that they make ALOT of quality noise for just 3 guys :tu Check it out for yourselves......http://www.rush.com
Bazz Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Yammy, you've made my day!! I tried to get tickets 3 weeks ago for the NEC gig in September and was told by ticketmaster that it was sold out :cry: They DIDN'T tell me there was a second date added and i've seen no publicity! I've just booked two tickets, and in decent view I last saw the guys something like 18-20 years ago and you're right enough, the music's cool but they're wicked live! Ahhh, memories.....Barclay James Harvest, Pink Floyd, Yes, Deep Purple.....Better warn the neighbours, I feel a session with my LP's coming on :wink: Thanx for the info mate!
axl Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Yep I gota deff agree they are a class act, it's was mostly them & AC-DC, that got me started listening to rock back in the late 70''s to present. And like you say for 3 guy's what a bloody sound!!, infact now that Iv'e had wee keek on their site (courtesy of you :wink: ) I'll save it. Cause I think Iv'e just found a long lost treasure. Thanks mate for re-lighting an flame again, I'm gona go out today and get something, and who know's I might end up having their whole set 8) 8) :wink:
Moderator YamaHead Posted July 28, 2004 Author Moderator Posted July 28, 2004 Glad to be of service mates .......Any fan of RUSH is ok in my book :wink: & Axl.....interesting you mention AC/DC in the same sentence..... I recall having 4th row tickets to see RUSH & AC/DC together, back in the late 70's.......but then 2 weeks before the show, Bon Scott died! :shock: .....so the show got cancelled :cry: That woulda been 1 Helluva show 8)
