RUSH's 2013 Hall of Fame Acceptance Speech

Source

It's about time. These guys are the greatest of all-time. No doubt about it. They've had more influence on me, and most of my favorite music than anyone else I know of.. blah blah blah... blah blah blah blah, and yes Alex is one of the most underrated guitarists of his time. We all know Neil is the master. No one else has won as many awards as this man. No one will ever be better than Neil Peart. And we all know Geddy Lee is universally revered for his technologically-advanced multi-tasking, and superb bass-playing.. Kudos to Alex Lifeson for this bit! These guys... They are.. well,

Simply the greatest band of all-time!

Here is their website, and their Facebook page..

I like this new progressive hard rock/metal band. Dare I say they're very Dream theater -ish, but with slightly better vocals. I'm sorry for always trashing on James LaBrie, but hey.. it is what it is. His vocal chords are not aging well. Also the vocals are mixed a little bit too loud over everything else. Otherwise, this band is tremendous!

Here's a Rush Double Shot for Your Friday

Do You Hand Out Kisses To Dirty Old Men?

I guess times change. Apparently this is from the time period 1980-1985, which surprises me, because I remember watching gameshows then, and I don't remember this one. Good thing I guess.

All I know is had this taken place in the last ten to fifteen years, this guy would've lasted on the air about 2 and half seconds. The guy in question is Fergie Olver, and the show is called Just Like Mom.

Famous Getty Image Of The Vancouver Riots The Other Night

So yeah this couple decided there was no better place nor time to make the best of their moment. The priceless picture is completely innocent, yet it's 100% perfection from a photographer's point of view. Riots are happening here. Cars are burning, hundreds of people are creating a situation in which riot police have to be dispatched. And yet these two people in love will be forever known as "the couple who were making out in downtown Vancouver amidst riots" - all because their hometown NHL team lost a Stanley Cup Final game-7. Badly.

For them? Ehh who won?

The story behind the picture..

Updated story here.. It turns out there's more to it than just a young couple kissing in the road!

No it's definitely not funny.. but it does make you think a little.

Olympic Hockey Rejuvenated

That USA/Canada hockey game was simply awesome! And I'm not really a hockey "fan". But this game was incredible. And the NHL and all its players have made these Olympics and more specifically this upcoming final round one super tournament for the gold medal.

Ryan Miller is a stud!
