Yeah. I respect all the points Chula made about Rush as relevant to their legacy. Frown loves them, too.

Sometimes I think I'm simply too old for this joint.

You're never too old for a joint.

Metaphorically speaking. Sir.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

You simply can't be serious.

We are secrets to each other
Each one's life a novel
No one else has read
Even joined in bonds of love
We're linked to one another
By such slender threads

We are planets to each other
Drifting in our orbits
To a brief eclipse
Each of us a world apart
Alone and yet together
Like two passing ships

Just between us
I think it's time for us to recognize
The differences we sometimes fear to show
Just between us
I think it's time for us to realize
The spaces in between
Leave room for you and I to grow

We are strangers to each other
Full of sliding panels
An illusion show
Acting well rehearsed routines
Or playing from the heart?
It's hard for one to know

We are islands to each other
Building hopeful bridges
On a troubled sea
Some are burned or swept away
Some we would not choose
But we're not always free

I agree that he's overrated as a drummer, despite the fact that I think he's amazing.

I actually think one of the great charms of Rush is that their music and lyrics are thoughtful without being pretentious. I always got the feeling they respect their fans and give them what they want in a thinking AC/DC kind of way. I know that AC/DC has stuck with a certain sound and Rush developed and went through changes but like AC/DC Rush stays in their lane. They stick to what they're good at it. You go to Rush concert; you get a Rush concert.

Is Peart overrated? By some. But they all are excellent technicians and he's a damn good drummer. Certainly the perfect drummer for Rush.

Think it's pretty amazing that when he was at the top of his game he chose to go back to school.
