Yea, Jacko can underoo rape some kid and fly to europe,

Damn, he be getting walked on by the MAN,,,
 
I know this is supposed to be a Rush tribute but, different strokes for different folks. I’ve always hated Rush. The instrumental parts of their music are not bad, they wrote some nice riffs, and I respect their musicianship. BUT as soon as Geddy Lee opens his mouth I cringe. He sounds so geigh and I can’t stand him. Worst rock voice ever IMO, and the lyrics are silly and childish.

I don't disagree with geddy not being a true vocalist..
Take the great the the bad ..

I remember a rhumor back in the 70's that he injected some
drugs into his vocal chords to get that pitch..

And I like classic/80's rock too.

I think its the singer who sounds like a fucking woman.

I disagree, thus you are wrong.
80s rock blows with ONE and ONLY ONE exception: Any Way You Want It - Journey.

I agree... Geddy sounds like a dame.
 
All I can say is that I use to listen to 2112 repeated in high school while high as a kite while I drovee around with my friend in his vw bug. I never got to see them in concert until I was in my 30s and then they played all their new stuff and didn't play one song off of 2112 and didn't even played working man. On the way out of the concert I boo'ed and also got my butt kicked by a bunch new rush loving wussies. Old rush for me thank you new rush sux!

Could be true. You can tell Led Zep was one of their influences. Maybe he wanted the Robert Plant sound.

journey is great, but you're passing up other incredible bands like def leppard, VH, and so on

I miss those days....back when people were cool.
 
Yea... Journey was more of a chick gettin band.
You listened to it when chicks were around and stuff to show them how sensitive you were.. lots of balads(sp?)

RUSH.. I mean.. 30 years ?? damn !


I do agree that the OLD stuff and the New stuff wasn't their best.
the days from 2112 to subdivisions was prime..

side 1 of 2112 is so cool if you know the story being told of the dude that finds the guitar in the cave when music has been outlawed by the priests at the temple...
The intro solo was rockin.. bongos knockin etc..

I gotta get a copy of that album..
I had a dutch Master Disk LP, but it got busted by some stoned pud friend.

“…back when people were cool.” :cool: A very profound one-liner, bro. You should start a new thread on that. I don’t think people know what being cool is anymore. The word is still used, but most people sure don’t act it anymore.

Now your bringing back memories. I remember after he played the guitar for the priest and then their answer.

"Don't annoy us further allll we have or work to do. Just think about the average what USE have they for you. Just another toy that helped destroy the elder race of men. Forget about your silly whim it doesn't fit the plan."

Yeah....seems like "cool" has been replaced with "attitude".

All mouth, no cool.....
 
Ok I'm going to go ahead and make an ass out of myself since it's what I do best.

Is the lead singer of Rush not a female? I've never seen pics of the band and never even considered the possibility that the lead singer was a guy until I read a few posts on this thread.

That said, I can't stand them. Rush and Pink Floyd are two of the most respected bands in rock and roll and my ear rejects them both violently.
 
Actually Journey sucks... but that ONE song is fan-fucking-tastic.

The rest of their output was shite.

dude.

city by the bay, wheel in the sky, separate ways, don't stop believin

also, download the video for separate ways off of kazaa or some shit. it's fucking hilarious. if you really like fun, you would check it out.
 
if you like the singers voice in rush, check out "coheed and cambria" GREAT band... his voice always reminds me of rush lol

No he isn't a woman but geddy lee does look like the ugliest femi dyke on the planet.

We’ve taken care of everything
The words you hear the songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes
It’s one for all and all for one
We work together common sons
Never need to wonder how or why

We are the priests of the temples of syrinx
Our great computers fill the hallowed halls
We are the priests of the temples of syrinx
All the gifts of life are held within our walls

Look around this world we made
Equality our stock in trade
Come and join the brotherhood of man
Oh what a nice contented world
Let the banners be unfurled
Hold the red star proudly high in hand



What can this strange device be?
When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
It's got wires that vibrate and give music
What can this thing be that I found?

See how it sings like a sad heart
And joyously screams out its pain
Sounds that build high like a mountain
Or notes that fall gently like rain.

I can't wait to share this new wonder
The people will all see its light
Let them all make their own music
The Priests praise my name on this night.





I know it's most unusual
To come before you so
But I've found an ancient miracle
I thought that you should know

Listen to my music
And hear what it can do
There's something here as strong as life
I know that it will reach you.

Yes, we know it's nothing new
It's just a waste of time
We have no need for ancient ways
The world is doing fine

Another toy will help destroy
The elder race of man
Forget about your silly whim
It doesn't fit the plan.

I can't believe you're saying
These things just can't be true
Our world could use this beauty
Just think what we might do.

Listen to my music
And hear what it can do
There's something here as strong as life
I know that it will reach you.

Don't annoy us further
We have our work to do.
Just think about the average
What use have they for you?

Another toy will help destroy
The elder race of man
Forget about your silly whim
It doesn't fit the plan.

Many share this feeling about geddy's vocals..
Like I said earlier.. ... Take the Great with the Bad..

Some of his early vocals are glass shattering high..
Other later albums like Subdivisions are a bit better..

Just consider its only 3 dudes making this music..
Same 3 for the last 30 years..
