  1. You want us to relax? And deny @IronMaidenBills and @Einstein the fun of making posts that are at least dumber than a douchnozzle? No thanks. I come here for the entertainment.
  2. Piss ass poor threads by Einstein are becoming a theme
  3. This comment is by a friend of mine who is the lead vocalist of another mighty fine Buffalo band, Reset 2 Vinyl Somehow I manage to dance while singing Red Barchetta, even in the middle section. So yes, it can be done Other comments I went to a LOT of Rush shows and danced to every song! Just move! Been a dancer since age 10, you can dance to anything... I've literally choreographed to Rush But the best comment comes from a friend of mine who quotes an expert on the subject: To quote Geddy Lee, “You can dance to Rush music, but you’ll hurt yourself.”
  4. Gail was a fine vocalist. It was behind the scenes stuff that made it almost impossible.
  5. You have more important things to deal with than seeing a bar band. You take care of what you need to. BTW: Gail our lead singer quit. So we are having auditions to replace her. We feel we will be a far better band without Gail in the picture.
  6. There's a lot to unpack with this post. I would have to agree with you on Rush not being a groove band. When Geddy and Alex played YYZ with Omar Hakim recently, it had a groove to it that I've never heard before. It was fresh. I'm not aware of Neil hanging with Stewart Copeland during GUP. I know Alex was listening to a lot of The Police during Signals. The band as a whole made a conscious effort to go to more of a synth sound after Moving Pictures. Alex ended up being frustrated after that album was released with his lack of guitar work. Countdown being the prime example. There was a more conscious effort to have Alex stand out on Grace Under Pressure, while still keeping the synths.
  7. I put this out on my Facebook wall. I used to run the largest Rush Message Board on the internet in the early 2000's. I got a nice variety of responses. Just gonna copy and paste some of the responses here: It's all a question of allowing the rhythm and/or beat of a song to move you. By such a quantifier, almost any Rush song can be danced to, in one form or another. If you can feel the music, you can dance. Some of it may be interpretive dance, but...when I have the chance, I am wigging out to any and all!! I loved dancing to Neil’s drum solos, never knew what was coming next We just move with the beat of the bass, man. One song that was called out as highly danceable was this one.
  8. My wife, casual fan, danced to Limelight. My ex can dance to just about any Rush song, and dance hard! Most female Rush fans I know have danced for an entire Rush show. Dancing in 7/4 is a talent. Female Rush fans are uber talented! Tai Shan is a different story altogether however...
  9. The only Rush song you really can't dance to is Tai Shan. The only Rush song you really can't say is a Rush song is Tai Shan.
  10. My current wife found out you can dance to Limelight with little difficulty.
  11. My ex made La Villa Strantiago a "so you think you can dance" top hit. Many female Rush fans I know dance their asses off to the boys.
  12. This just popped into my memory. At a Rush concert in 2004, this guy got right in my then wife's space for dancing during the show. I got in front of him, telling him to leave my wife alone and if she wanted to dance, she had every right to. He got all tough guy on me, then like 20 people watching this unfold got right in this guys face. He left pretty quietly after that.
  13. I'm finding it a little bit interesting that the Bills haven't announced this as of yet.
  14. Thank you for that. It's all good.
  15. I'm not criticizing him on his English. I think it is very good. I am saying if you're going to start a thread, follow up in it.
  16. The thing I have with you is not your posts. You start threads, and then don't follow up in them to have a good debate on opposing issues. It's ok to start threads, but make follow up posts in the threads you start.
  17. My band does Sanctify Yourself. Simple Minds is a great band!
  18. Bad band name, grooving cover
  19. I wonder if Taylor would be wearing a Cardigan...
  20. Elam and Benford both will have picks. Gabe Davis is gonna be all like, "Don't you forget about me" and have multiple TD's.
