That's whacked. Bigtime.

I'm also fairly certain that "Red Barchetta" predated the release of the Ferrari of the same name.

So glad this wasn't a Rush Limbag fan request--------

I'd be sick all over againhttp://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/puke.gif


Then again, the Coultergeist /Plame comparison wasn't much of a comparison either.......http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/sleep.gif

Those dudes in Rush look old, but not quite that old.

The Ferrari barchetta is from the '50s.

Ahhh, THAT Barchetta. Sorry my bad, forgot there had been an "old" one too. I thought you meant this one (2001-ish vintage):

But that supposed LSD reference is whacked. Kinda stretching it a bit, no? You could take any paragraph and stretch it to make supposed drug references.

:D

Like that?

Randy, make sure you're in your seat when the opening scene comes on the jumbotron before the first song. It's pretty funny. Neil actually has a sense of humor this tour.

onewhippedpuppy 07-17-2007 06:05 AM

Hate hate hate hate hate hate RUSH. Local variety rock station here plays them constantly. I always thought the songs were just filler. I guess they do still have some fans.;) Just thought I'd share.SmileWavy
