But why can't boomers just let a good thing go? I saw them on the R40 tour 10 years ago and I thought it was a great sendoff. Geddy's voice is totally shot. Our culture truly is calcified.
>>127985013Alex and Geddy need some money
The mortgage ain't gonna' pay itself.
>>127985013at least there's now a woman in the room when Rush play
>>127985013bet she's a great cocksucker
>>127985028They're in their 70s and have been a huge band for decadesWhat money do they need?
>>127985305just because they're old and they were in a successful band doesn't mean their bills and expenses go away
>>127985331>Geddy Lee Estimated net worth: 40 millionI think he's fine
>>127985240tpbp - usually that's the case, though to be fair, I saw as many women at the Clockwork Angels Tour show as I do at any other concert, so maybe they broadened their appeal towards the end.It's going to be a great show, I'm signed up for the L.A. presale>>127985013I'm willing to bet you've never seen Rush live. What do you care?
>>127985280yeah given Rush's audience demographic, I'm imagining there's going to be a whole bunch of sexist bullshit like this, along with sniveling about "woke" and DEI.but she's a great drummer, I mean really freaking brilliant on the drums.
>>127985493>she's a great drummerShe's not Neil Peart, and Geddy and Alex are in their 70s now. They should just leave it well enough alone.
>>127985493I joked about it just for the meme but I really don't care about that. The identity of the drummer is less important to me than the overall context of doing a Rush tour without Neil. I'm skeptical but open to being surprised.
>>127985339Yeah but half of that is in bass guitars
>>127985013It's probably boring as fuck to sit around for years after touring non stop your entire adult life
>>127985493Because it is so cliche and annoyingly "gotcha" about picking a woman every single fucking time just for brownie points for some pieces of shit online. Its tiresome.
They had a good run but there's only so many songs you can write about radio towers
>>127985981>Because it is so cliche and annoyingly "gotcha" about picking a woman every single fucking time just for brownie points for some pieces of shit onlinealso it seems behind the times, DEIslop is done now
>>127985981Did they mention her being a woman as the reason they picked her?
don't think a gril can play drums with the intensity the songs require
>>127985339Canada is expensive.
>>127986132No
>>127986167So why are we freaking out about DEI then? It's not like any male could be a adequate replacement either.
>>127985013I don't give a fuck it's Geddy and Alex so I'm going.
>>127986190The guy who brought up DEI was the one whining about the guy making a horny comment. I feel like Rush's fanbase is kinda libtard coded being honest.
>>127986217idk maybe it's because I'm a libertarian but I've always thought of them as a libertarian right band.
>>127986268They were in their youth (The Trees, based song) and then they libtarded out. Even boomer libertarians are very liberal coded I feel.
>>127985305>>127985028The greed of the Canadian boomer knows no bounds.
>>127985013Quitting is bad for your health. Addicted to touring. It's their job.
>>127985981>>127986096This. DEI died in 2024 we're back to meritocracy I guess Geddy the boomer jew is slow to update. I highly doubt a German 40 year old female was the best choice for the job of drumming for a legendary 70's prog band. They should have gotten the drummer from Turnstile or that guy on Youtube The DrumFather.
>>127986503Whoever they chose it just wouldn't be good. She's a good drummer I'm sure but it's just not Rush without Neil.
>>127986503RUSH YOU SHOULD HIRE THIS DRUMMER INSTEADhttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/thydU8iGDhY
Rush is my favorite band ever. The last time I saw Rush they played my favorite song of all time (2112) and I literally left mid-song because Geddy's voice was so bad. That was over a decade ago.
>>127985013My Thoughts on Rush's NEW Drummerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N7D4JXpLRc
>First of all, congratulations, Lee and Lifeson>Hello, we like money>What inspired you to do a comeback tour without Neil Peart and to feature a female drummer to play with both of you?>Money
Surprised they didn't just go the obvious route and use Portnoy
>>127985013rush is shit
>>127986503She was recommended to Geddy by a mutual friend based on her work with Jeff Beck, so it was pretty much a meritocratic decision.
>>127987057It's a shame
>>127985331Don't spoil his fantasy
>>127987057His voice was rough on the Time Machine and Clockwork Angels tours, but he had time to rest for R40 and it helped greatly.
>>127985013They just want to shove some woman drummer in your face.
>>127985493>but she's a great drummer, I mean really freaking brilliant on the drums.WHATEVER....... since no woman can ever be criticized for anything it become hard if not impossible to know if actual quality is involved.
>>127986167They don't have to dishonest assholes.
>>127988126I don't have to watch it to know he will say what he must, that she is the best ever etc. and this is a great thing etc.
