AN FAQ ABOUT YOUR NEW BIRTH CONTROL: THE MUSIC OF RUSH

ANFAQTA

 

A...

 

This is brilliant and I love Rush!
I can personally attest to how effective of a birth control device this part is.
"Some women report feeling incredibly uncool. You may develop medium-to-severe irritation when your male sexual partner gives an impassioned ten-minute speech on how Neil Peart was the greatest percussionist in human history."

 

Yes, They Might be Giants, Erik Johnson, and from personal experience Dave Brubeck.

 

Give her a zero on originality. The narrative that Rush is predominantly a mens’ group has been around almost as long as the band. Most women were dragged to the shows by their significant others only to squirm and gasp for three hours in uncomfortableness. This could even be considered a form of torture.

 

Seems like a good place to post this gem. No idea how I've never seen this before the last few days, but yeah....suffice to say the guy in white is basically me in the car whenever Tom Sawyer comes on. Just ask my family.

 

Did you see the video of the white guy with glasses playing every song Rush ever made on drums. I think he did it all in one take and it was like 24 minutes long. It was like a medley where he played a small part of each song from the first album to last album. That dude has chops, man. He should take over for Neil.

 

I was on a date and had it on in my car. She said "can we stop playing the smooth jazz".

Dave Brubeck and Miles Davis were contemporaries but I don't think "Blue Rondo Ala Turk" is the panty dropper as "Some Kind of Blue"

Also don't Chick Corea doesn't get it done. Or more importantly talking about Chick Corea and Dave Brubeck doesn't get it done.

 

A few others musical birth control:
Steve Vai
John Cage
Philip Glass
Anything with "Minimalist" associated with it.
Anything with "Atonal" associated with it.

 

Rush, Steely Dan...nothing wrong with either it's just about as exciting as an Alabama/Georgia championship game.

Priceless..........I think we have all done that at one time or another or in my case like a thousand times, RUSH was the best. RIP Neil

 

I've seen that. Hey, if it worked for Journey's lead singer...why not?

 

I think I was wrong about recording it in one sitting. That would be hard, if not impossible, to do. lol

This article came out about it on Yahoo! and it says it took 10 weeks to compile the 25 minute mash-up.

You seem to have a lot of experience... with blaming music for romantic misses.

 

I have a lot of experience with romantic misses....

 

Never cared that my wife didn't like Rush, or Zappa, or Primus, or Pantera, or GWAR or any of the other hundreds of bands I saw in concert. Kept me from having to buy her a ticket and protect her in the pit. Easier to make it up front if you don't have a woman who doesn't like crowds keeping you in the back where it's not asses to elbows.
