Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
Check this out!
In some alternate universe, Neil ran a parts shop.
The wives! Perhaps that's why they weren't the typical 70s womanizing rockers.
Those two women on the right side of the table are hot!

Wow!
These are GREAT!

Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
Yeah, there's a good Rush documentary on Netflix where Neil said he was living at home and working in his dad's parts store when he auditioned. About the wives, I read in some rock n roll magazine back in the 70s that Alex Lifeson was married and he spent his free time building and painting model car kits. I was like, "WTH, the genius of odd and harsh electric guitar builds model cars?"

Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
Yeah hearing about their regular lives is always interesting. The Beyond the Lighted Stage documentary was great. Ged is a big baseball fan and collector, Alex a golf nut who bought a golf club near Toronto.

Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
My respect and love for the band has only increased learning some of this stuff.
It's nice to hear Rock tales that don't involve snorting lines of ants or trashing hotel rooms.
(not that there is anything wrong with that)

Ged in bottom row, second from left. From Limelight - Rush in the 80s, by Martin Popoff
Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
Wow! Kind of hard to picture Geddy playing softball.
Did you see in the Rush: Beyond the Lighted Stage documentary that Geddy's real name was Gary. "Geddy" was how his Polish mother pronounced it, and his friends started calling him that. Kind of cool, I thought.

Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
Jemmus yes I have the documentary too. It's great. OM, Geddy is 5'10', maybe he's crouching a bit in that photo, or his team mates are all really tall?
To visualize him playing baseball:

Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
The only time I've seen an accordian in a rock band was with Pere Ubu, an obscure art-geek-punk-something band who had an alternative hit "Waiting for Mary" in '89. They were an opener for... hard to remember, maybe the Pixies, at some club in Boston. It's all run together.
Re: The Studio (Audio and Art)
Oh yeah, I know Pere Ubu. There was some good weird post-punk bands like them in the 80s.

Ha! Those are some nice boys, for hard/prog rockers. And they look like their moms.
