The Rush appreciation thread

Yes, both interviews they mention wanting to do something, not 100% just together but that could happen. And I highly doubt it will be called Rush as so many on the WWW are making claim or suggesting who they should get as a drummer.

Alex was more detailed about it saying he is feeling more comfortable playing now and has some ideas. I really see him gusting on albums or a part of some project band, he's also getting a lot of attn for playing with Marco Minnemann and Fu Manchu. I see the balance of his career as a session guitarist and guesting on bands albums as well he contributes a lot of ideas/songs/riffs to bands like he did with Fu Manchu. Alex was very stern about not wanting to tour at all anymore.

Geddy is a harder read as I think he misses the road and playing live, it's clear of the three he has suffered the least with musician issues like tendinitis or any hand issues like Alex has fought. Geddy has stated many times when he is sick he makes sure everyone knows it, he never holds that in like say Neil was known to do.

I could see Geddy being a part of a band but man with who and what kind of music........If Yes would tour I am sure he would beg them to let him be the bass player, maybe even tour with Daltrey and Townsend.  

Thanks for posting! I saw that earlier...........Alex is such a cool guy and his playing is so melodic and tasteful. Very cool well played riffs, like Geddy said he had to come in and figure out how to add in his parts after Neil and Geddy built the rhythm section all the while not being bombastic and on top of every song as many guitarists feel they need to be.

Plus every band has to have the token goof-ball/comedian.......

What a trip to think Neil was walking the streets of Santa Monica as a commoner. He also volunteered at his kid's school's library.

"......Lee wasn’t surprised. “Knowing Neil the way I do,” he says, “and knowing that he knew how much time he had left, I think it was a natural thing for him to review the work of his life. And he was finding himself very proud of how he had spent a big chunk of his life. And he wanted to share that with Alex and I. Whenever we saw him, he wanted to talk about that. He wanted us to know that he was proud."
