PhishyK Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 I think they're the best Canadian classic rock band of all time. Coming from BC and living in Toronto, songs like Lakeside Park and Spirit of Radio just fill me with Toronto nostalgia. I will always be filled with fond memories of summertime at the CNE when I hear that opening drum riff from Lakeside Park. Not to mention Tom Sawyer is one of the rockinest riff songs EVER in the whole world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcane Posted October 23, 2003 Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 quote:Originally posted by Super Freak: Girls hate Rush huh...?

PhishyK Posted October 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 There's no such thing as a girl who truly likes Rush!!!! Craig - of course I remember you bro. You were one of the kindest guys I've met in a long time actually. It really shows that you *don't* live in the big smoke! It was nice to hang with a relaxed guy like you. DUDE. Any drummers out there that can bust the opening riff from Lakeside Park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Musicface Posted October 23, 2003 Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 Hah, you know I must say that I find it extremely interesting that the statement "Girls hate Rush" seems to have generated much more general ire than the statement "Rush sucks." There's a sociology paper in there somewhere... As the guy who feels like he's been acclaimed as head Rush defender on this board for some reason, I can say in my experience as a Rush fan for 20-odd years that I have known many, MANY female Rush fans. Some, to be fair, like Rush 'cus their boyfriend/husband does, but hey we could say that about a lot of bands and a lot of other things - spouses often have common interests, and if they're music lovers those will naturally include music. That said, I've also known a number of women who liked Rush purely "on their own" if you will, who have bought their own concert tickets and waited in line for the store to open to get their copy of "Roll The Bones" the first day it came out and so on. And there were about a dozen or so women out of a crowd of about 100 or so the DVD premiere the other night. Certainly men at a Rush concert outnumber the ladies, probably in about the same ratio as the girls outnumber the guys at the all the Ani DiFranco & Tori Amos concerts I've been to. But to say only women like Ani or Tori is just as silly a generalization - I happen to love them both. - M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tungsten Gruvsten Posted October 23, 2003 Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 Yeah go to a King Crimson concert sometime and see that the only girls there are the ones dragged there by boyfriends. I'm pretty sure the last time I saw Crimson at the Warehouse there were 6 females in the place, including the bartendress.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
