OKAY SO I DID A THING

HAHAHAHA

i had a really random dream i was friends with neil peart and we started writing random lyrics in pink glittery gel pen while kicking our legs back and forth while laying down it was really funny

TOMOROW.

tomorrow.

its ficking tomorrow

i like how i said im going to bed but i failed greatly

HELLO! please please would you inform me of some of the lore on rush and styx? ive listened to a few of their respective songs but i know nothing about those guys and i like knowing about the bands i listen to, if you like? (no pressure :))

HII!

sorry i didnt respond in a while! its been rather busy!

right! its the middle of the night and im really tired so i'm just gonna do rush lore because im about to fall asleep at any moment!!

ive never really explained rush lore to anybody so sorry if this is choppy.

our favorite dorks! geddy neil and alex >3

my favorite dork is geddy if u totally couldnt tell ☺️

rush has like, lyrics that make me transcend into space and find cygnus X-1

neil is not only a great drummer, but a great lyricst too! his writing really captivates me, and his lyrics really resonate with me. he's a great writer, one that created words that really hit deep

alex's guitar lines are SUPER underrated. I mean- he knows when to come in and do his solo and leave it to the rest of the band if yk what i mean. (im a bad explainer) it's literally perfect

geddy geddy spageddy. worlds GREATEST multi-tasker! his bass lines are perfect, creating a masterpiece. not to mention, the fact he plays synth parts with not just his hands but with pedals too, and he fucking sings. btw, his singing is something that is just fucking amazing. the fact that he is naturally just able to have a very high-tone of voice when he sings is just otherworldly.

not to mention, they are the most wholesome people!! they have such a tight bond and the friendship between geddy and alex is so fucking funny and just DHAJDBEIAHNEDNOWUEBDJXIWAHAHHHHHH

anyways!

their music is just amazing, and again, lyrics? omg geddy does such a good job singing them and neil writing them.

im not going to go through all of the albums because im VERY tired right now, but here are my top favorites <3

signals, moving pictures, 2112, hemispheres, clockwork angels, hold your fire, grace under pressure, counterparts

rush photo dump!

im going to go to bed now, but hope that clears it up.
