What happened to Rush?

[msell66]

I've been sitting here the last couple hours getting all my ducks lined up for surgery on Wednesday while listening to Clockwork Angels Live on the boob tube. Every fuck'n song sounds like every other song. Geddy Lee seems to sing each song like the last....yelling into the mic. While his voice has always been very different, when did it become crap? He can still sing the words, you can hear it periodically, but mostly it's just yelling.

I am disappointed.

I would chalk some of it up to possible hearing loss? You can't rock out in front of amp stands like that for 30+ years and not have some issues.

His voice sounds deeper now. Maybe his nuts finally dropped?!

No, this is MUSIC Mid. I forgot it hadn't been invented yet when you were young.

My dad loved them. I never did get into them. Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin I'm in...

For the longest time, I thought he was a she.

And here I thought we were kindred spirits, Bill. Generational thing, I guess. That or that stuff I used to smoke made it sound better...

I love Rush. It's a shame Geddy Lee can't sing anymore. John Sebastian is another sad casualty of time (and cigarettes).

Me too. Another one I never got was AC/DC.

Trust me, I feel like I'm from that era musically as that is what I listened to growing up with my dad. The doors, Jethro tull, jimi... just to name a few. Don't know never did care for their sound.

Neal Peart is the genius of the band - he is incredible.

My favorite song is this.

Wow...I am certainly not a fan of your political choices, but wow...hitting it low by not liking AC/DC? I thought every red-blooded American male knew all the words to Back in Black and Highway to Hell......damn
