You crack me up... You make some of these groups you go see seem like they are lengendary... Rush has been around for 34 years. That puts them at a level of some of the greats. And yet peeps on here treat them like they are some second rate Friday night bar band. Unbelievable...
haha. I didn't intend to start one of these debates again. They're tiring and pointless. (Just for the record, as for the next 2 concerts I'm seeing... Super Furry Animals has had Paul McCartney from a little band called The Beatles, play on their album as well as John Cale from The Velvet Underground... Them endorsing it, says a little something about The Furries' greatness and they're not brand new... even tho that has nothing to do with talent or nontalent... but they been around since 1993... and been on Epic Records of Sony BMG... they're not what you call "bar band"... NME readers named them Best New Band in January 1999... and frankly they'll be a historic band when they call it a day... As for The Pogues... they're like the most famous Irish traditional folk punkish group and started in 1982 and have been a #94 on the US Hot 100 Chart, a #2 on the UK Singles Chart, and a #1 on the Irish Singles Chart)
I don't care how long Rush has played... just 'cause your an old band doesn't make you any better
Yeh boy
Don't ever call my music non-worthy of legend
Blaaaaa
Anyway, I was really posting those dates to be helpful to you
Not to mock you
(Sooo... yes, you're welcome)
I looked at what you wrote as indirectly making fun that Rush has a concert tour.
Then you indirectly looked at it wrong. I really was just posting Rush dates, since they were emailed to me, & figured you might wish to go see them.... I'm on several concert announcement mailing lists... so if I think anyone likes a particular group and I hear they're gonna be playing I announce it. I wasn't being sarcastic. I've never once said they weren't talented or weren't legend. If I was into Rush's style... I'd be here defending them, right alongside you. I think they're good at what they do.
if you two met in real life you'd hate each others guts. i'd love it.
nah way.. don't say something like that. Actually I'd love to meet bruv.
I think I kind of met you a couple of years ago. Did you come to the last Ezabel picnic? I was the guy getting beat up by a 7 year old with a plastic light sabre.
ooh, sabre! how classy!
yeh? interesting. know what year & location? i think i slighty remember that scene in the corner of my eye... i don't think we met like with a face to face handshake. i didn't really meet anyone new there i think.
It was at Village Green in Budd Lake, NJ.
Yehp. I remember. I really only chatted with 3 people, so I didn't make the connection before. I think that kid was Special K's right?
dude....rush should play at the village green. with puff daddy. bangin concert!
I want to see Rush once more before they die of old age.
