    No were done messing around with him now. Speedster is entitled to enjoy a band without it getting "shit on" as he so gently put it. Just as I would enjoy going to see a Metallica concert or ACDC he's going to enjoy seeing the hip and that's all that matters is that he's happy and will enjoy himself and he's sharing his thoughts with us. Can't give a guy flak for doing that.

    Maybe he's just ahead by a century?

    I just hope he doesn't feel so hard done by and has the wherewithal, courage, and grace, too, to realize he's on the verge of seeing the poets in person. He won't have to twist my arm, break any little bones or even pull three pistols to convince me that he'll have a blast. Whether or not he's 38 years old, there's no reason to be scared or to fight and he should fully completely avoid being locked in the trunk of a car at the hundredth meridian and start looking for a place to happen. Like boots or hearts, this riff is really starting to fall apart...

    Mike, what have you started?

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.

    We watched the concert from Kingston last night on CBC. What a final farewell to a fantastic band.
    Gord has given the world the gift of musical poetry. I sincerely hope that he is able to do, now all the things he dreams as his journey comes to its end. He and the rest of the HIP will be sadly missed but their legend will live on in the music.

    Yup, we watched it to, was fantastic.


    Just curious, am I suppose to give kisses on the lips to my close friends? Or is it just when I'm wearing glittery clothes?

    I watched it too. Damn near bawling during Fiddler's Green.

    Those b'ys will be missed, but I'm so happy that Gord made it to the end and had a chance to make his farewell in his hometown.

    I like the Hip a hell of a lot, but I am just going to leave this little road apple here for y'all . . .

    Rush has released 24 gold records and 14 platinum records (including 3 multi-platinum), placing them third behind The Beatles and The Rolling Stones for the most consecutive gold or platinum studio albums by a rock band.

    RUSH is, by any standard of measurement you care to go by, the greatest rock act to come from this country. Period, end of sentence.
