It's
actually part of the terms of Dean's parole that he stays
chained to this lot! Look down there for more!! |

"Diary of an analog kid" "It is 1978. Rush has just entered my 15-year-old life for the first time. "Hemispheres" is placed on my turntable in my room, and stays there for 2 months. "I loved the complexity, the impossible timings, and the great musicianship; the songs were cool too. But it wasn't until 1980 and "Permanent Waves" that the Rush bug really took hold. "Like most drummers, we each learn our craft by playing along to our favourite music, but I hadn't realised how tough (indeed, impossible!) playing along to "Permanent Waves" and "Hemispheres" would be. Neil Peart became, and would remain, one of my heroes. "Its 2004, and I am approached by two lovable rogues and asked if I want to play in a band honouring the music of Rush. I go and buy all the stuff on cd, place it in the cd player, where it remains for 2 months … Having this opportunity to play this wonderful, exciting and challenging music, my love for the band has started all over again. Just hope I can play it this time …" |
