Hi, Rushians,
This is the first time I write to this list. So, you probably don't know
me. I'd like to make a few comments on the article about HYF lyrics. I agree
that some songs, like Second Nature and Tai Shan have excellent lyrics, but
I don't think this is the best piece of work Rush (in special Neil Peart)
have done. I think that their most brilliant work concerning lyrics belongs
to Permanent Waves and Moving Pictures. Well, I think this space must be
democratic, so, I'm giving my sincere opinion.
Nothing more at the moment,

Big Money

Subject: Steinbergers, Wals, blah-blah-blah
Hello, Rusheads!
THE GEDDY/STEINBERGER/WAL BIZNESS:
1) P/G was the only release Geddy used a Steinberger to record.
2) From PoW to RTB (and "Critical Mass"?), Geddy used a Wal to record.
3) Geddy used a Steinberger on the P/G and PoW tours. Wals on all others.
On the HYF tour, Ged had a back-up Steinberger just in case the Wal screwed up
for any reason. However, the rest of the tours that followed found Geddy with
a small army of back-up Wals.
STEINBERGER BASSES: EXPENSIVE, BUT SHIT?
The narrow-bodied, graphite model is the XL2. It usually runs about $2000. It
is true, however, that the bass sounds crappy. The other Steinberger bass, the
XM2, is full-bodied, six hundred dollars less, and sounds very warm and great.
It was designed by Ned Steinberger and Mike Rutherford (of Genesis). Apparently
Rutherford really dug the Steinberger guitar/bass sound, but HATED the teeny-
tiny body. So, he called Ned, told him what he wanted to do, and got to help
design the full-bodied Steinberger guitar/bass. I don't see Steinbergers being
played too much anymore...I suppose they were fad-ish. It was neat, IMHO, to
watch Geddy run around with a Steinberger strapped around his shoulder.
Oh, well...enough for now.

From: Greg.Andrade@um.cc.umich.edu
Subject: Weckl and Rand
In response to the comment about Weckl playing with musicians who are not
as good as Geddy and Alex, I must laugh. I love Ged and Alex and am of the
opinion that Rush is, overall, the best music group around, but Lee and
Lifeson couldn't hold a flame to cats like Frank Gambale, John Pattitucci, or
Chick Corea, to name a few. It is pointless to argue this issue since
Weckl and Peart and all of the others play quite differently, but, keep in
mind that Weckl and his musical companions can play rock and many more styles
than Rush can, especially when one considers the degree of authenticity.
Secondly, I've been meaning to bring up a point about Ayn Rand and 2112 for
some time. There has been a lot of discussion concerning Neil Peart's use of
Anthem as an inspiration for 2112, or at least his acknowledgement of certain
similarities to avoid trouble. Well, the basic concept of Anthem was taken
from another dystopian work by another Russian writer, called We, by Zevgeny
Zamyatin. Notice the title and its relation to "we" and "I" in Anthem.
In both novels, the narrator uses the writing of a journal as a subversive
activity and describes a state-controlled society based on collectivism. With
no acknowledgement of such, Rand more or less duplicated We, for all
practical considerations. So, before we accuse Peart of plagiarizing or
make an issue out of his use of Anthem as a source, we should look at Rand's
own background for Anthem.

Subject: Whoa there!
Hey,
Sorry jason, I didn't mean to ruff your feathers. But, I _do_ feel that
MTV is a product of nothing but their own programming. I do not suscribe
to the idea that music sucks today because of the record companies. Sure the
record companies are putting out what they think everyone is going to
like, but that doesn't mean that's what we _have_ to listen to!!! Let's
face it, the record companies are only capitalizing on what everyone
thinks is "trendy". Consumers decide what is trendy and what sucks, and
the record companies react. If MTV wanted to play what was good, then they
sure as hell would. MTV has been reduced to playing what is trendy, and
not what is good. Just because they played a half hour of an ex-beatle,
doesn't, in my mind, make them a decent organization. I don't know how
many people remember, but when MTV first came around, they did play good
music, including rush. They were not concerned with what was trendy. I do
remember the first year or so seeing Tom and Limelight many times. It's
just like everything else, they went commercial. They have no integrity.
And that folks, IMHO, is the biggest reason that rush simply should not
play MTV. Again, looking foward to flames-

Subject: MTV does to suck (and so does the NYT Best Seller List)
MTV: yes, it really does suck, Virgina. And why isn't it the fault of
MTV that they suck? I'm sure Neil et al would agree that the board of
directors has free will...the corporation simply realised that they
could make a higher marginal profit by targetting goofy 13yr olds for
their advertising (and thus, have to show videos that they like).
More power to them. Unfortunately those who enjoy RUSH and other
similar bands are a lot hard to pigeonhole, which means that it would
cost more per person to aim a TV station at us (especially b/c we
don't watch nearly as much TV as 13 yr olds). So...it pays to suck.
(My personal favorite MTV-ism is pitching VH-1 as "the other video
channel", with slight hints of ripping on MTV for being so
superficial...while (a) they engage in the same sort of butt-smooching
MTV does (hipply hippy 15 second info-sermons to a 30-something crowd
on the environment and hip democrat politicians) and (b) THEY ARE
OWNED AND RUN BY THE SAME PEOPLE!
Paul McCartney and *Elton John*: they *are* trendy sellouts (or at least they
try very hard to be). It's sort of sad seeing people the age of my
parents altering their sound in a relentless effort to appeal to the
13 yr. old MTV audience.
NYT Best Sellers: Not suprising that those authors never hit #1. They
write stuff that appeals to a smaller group year after year (and
people move into and out of that group...constant sellers...). Other
authors make a huge splah, but have no staying power. Trivia: the NYT
Best Seller list is based on quantities of books ordered by book store
chains. Not consumer purchases. Steve King often hits #1 before his book is
released...book stores pre-order. And then send back 1/2 of the order
later. There have also been several charges of corruption in the
ranking (the bookseller industry is very tight...and -theoretically-
if the NYT labelled some generic book a best seller, the publicity
could very well make it a best seller...self fulfilling prophecy...).
Isaac Asimov: is spelled thusly. He was an honorary prof at some
university in NYC...never really taught... Met him once. Dead now
(croaked w/in the last yr or so...). Him. Not me. I'm more or less
alive. I'll be more alive after finals.
Red Lenses: it isn't under-rated, its correctly rated. Most
people(that I've talked to about it) rank it poorly. I agree, but
would be interested in hearing why others like it...
ObNewTopic: I need to get used to a lot of music before I like it.
This break in period is usually short, but w/ Rush, it is often a year
or longer. I only started to really appreciate HYF a year or so ago
(and I was a Rush fan long before the album came out, I went to the
concert,etc.) I'm starting to like RTB around now. Has anyone else
out there had a similar experience, or is it just me, and I should
take my lithium more often...?
Well, enough rambling.

Are you serious??? I think it captures the feel of a live

audience just fine, and still the sound is great. Oh well, I guess
you're entitled to your opinion. I will give you this, though; I

Subject: Hold Your Fire:Humanity?
Re: the discussions regarding what the themes of HYF are, I think the main focus
is on time and instinct. However the overall theme is definately humanity.
I much prefer these people-related lyrics to the colder more technology
focussed stuff. RTB in my opinion is another 'humanity' album.
I had a very real reason to ponder Rush songs and lyrics a while back. My
best friend Simon died young and very unexpectedly. He and I were lifelong
Rush
fans, from 'Rush' to RTB we have followed their music. Simon's Mother asked
me to choose some music he would have wanted played at the cremation. I
thought of our friendship throughout the years and of all the friends he was
leaving behind and instinctly knew the song had to be 'Time Stand Still'.
The humanity of the lyrics, the passage of time, wanting a particularly good
time to stand still seemed so appropriate. The majority of the people
attending the service hadn't heard Rush before but took to the song and
lyrics straight away, it seemed so appropriate.

Subject: Lard...
Scott Josephson, you are wrong about the red Wal on Presto. The black Wal was
used on that album. Exclusively. Roll the Bones featured the red one, and the
black one was used on two songs. Not quite sure which, although the bass on
Where's my Thing and Face Up sounds substantially twangier than the rest, so I
would hazard it was those two. A major proportion of the red one sounding
warmer is that it has a slightly larger body...but I still say bring back the
Rickenbacker!
Rush Unplugged - looks like I am one of the few people that thinks this is a
good idea. So what if Alex Lifeson wouldn't get a distorted/chorused/flanged
etc sound? Try to look beyond all the clever little sound effects and examine
the SONG instead. I've always believed that playing a song acoustically is an
excellent test of the strength of the song - therefore ANY Rush song could be
done. Why are so many Rush fans so precious about the band? It seems to me
that many have the attitude of 'they're my favourite band, and I don't want
them to become too popular'. It's as if they feel they have one over on people
who don't like/haven't really heard Rush. And of course, we must NEVER have
them on nasty, horrible MTV. What would the neighbours say?
Final point - I have the entire Rush collection on vinyl. Personally, with a
decent system I think they sound far better than CDs, which sound rather too
cold and clinical for my liking.

It seems to me that Rush unplugged would be like KISS doing country music
(And I've heard KISS do country - trust me, it ain't pretty). Not only
would Alex have to change a playing style that he's spent *years*
perfecting, the music they do doesn't lend itself well to being
acousticalized at all (aside from the parts that are acoustic like the
intro to "Trees", and "Closer to The Heart"). They would have to come up
with all new material that would fit an "unplugged" style of playing.
Hmmmm.... Rush doing country music.... eeesssshhhh, the very thought makes
my stomach turn.

Subject: Peart and Rand
I agree with whoever said that the Neil Peart/Ayn Rand connection has
been over emphasized. Sure Neil, of course, read her books and was
inspired by them. But I doubt he sits around everyday reading Ms.
Rand's books. Through his lyrics I woul assume he is one who likes to
read lots of books. Obviously, he agrees with Rand's basic philosophy,
but I think maybe he uses it as a foundation and expands on it himself.
The theme of individualism and such is evident through Rush's lyrics.
Even Red Tide was written, according to Peart for "selfish reasons."
Which I was glad to hear, because I'd hate to call Peart an
enviromentalist.
I am gald he dedicated an album to her, because it led me to read her
books, but I doubt he's a fanatic about her. Then again, how the hell
would I know what he does in his spare time.

How is it obvious that Neil was shaking off the Rand connection at the time
of 2112? On the contrary, he was totally infatuated with Rand at the time
of 2112. And I simply don't think it's true that Peart first wrote 2112 and
then read Anthem, belatedly realizing the connection. The plots are just too
similar for this account to be credible, in my opinion.
I don't think Peart really started shaking off the Rand connection until
Presto. Think about the lyrics of "Presto" and "Available Light."

Subject: RUSH-Unplugged
Another first timer here with his $0.02 worth. First of all I do
remember the early days of MTV when RUSH videos were shown pretty
much every hour. Of course these were all footages from the ESL
video but it was great to see. I can't remember the last time I
saw them on MTV (probably 6 or 7 years at least). Anyway, I
don't think the point is if MTV would have them on rather what
they would sound like if they were on. Personally, I think some
of their older stuff would sound pretty cool but they would
definetely have to pick and choose songs and rewrite some of the
chords. I know myself and other RUSH fans that I know, know that
they could pull it off easily and it would be good.
Side note: I started listening to RUSH when I was 17 and MP just
came out. My parents of course have absolutely no taste in music
and I wondered what I would listen to when I got older. Now that
I'll be turning the dreaded 30 this year, I can proudly say I'll
be listening to RUSH!

Get this;
I saw a CD entitled "Red Barchetta". One the front is a shiny red

There is what looks like some Spanish along the bottom of the inside. Most
of the songs listed, if I remember correctly, were from Moving Pictures.
On the front of the album it says "Limited Edition: 1,000 copies made."
(I hope I got the number right, I do not exactly remember what it was.)
Please note that this album does NOT appear to be a single; there are
about 5 songs, maybe 6 on it.

It is because of the robot becoming self aware, also please remember that

People seem to have missed this point there is song that leads of side to of
