chrisp65 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 to be honest the only thing that makes it unusual is how other people completely disregard it, they hear it and turn their nose up, saying that though I dont know how many people I have got to love at least 1 townes van zandt or guy clark track but when you play it enough around them without forcing them to listen to it they often end up liking it and that is my mates who are into dub step and shit like that I've got a 3cd set in the car. All the stereotypical stuff, ring of fire, islands in the stream, jolene. Good singalong stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leviramsey Posted June 12, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted June 12, 2012 Violently opposed to all that old 'shit' when I was in school. I used to actively dislike people for having Camel or Rush written on their bag. Music stopped at around about the Yardbirds / Small Faces and didn't start again until Dr Feelgood. A wise choice. Rush fans are very hateable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted June 12, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted June 12, 2012 Listening to a podcast recently they had a debate on whether there is a time when you need to get into Rush by or you'll never 'get' it. Personally, can't stand the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, can't stand the band.I wouldn't say I can't stand them, but I have tried and they just didn't 'stick'. I think Geddy Lee's voice is the problem. There's Robert Plant and there's fingernails down a blackboard, and I'm afraid he falls into the latter camp. The Ayn **** Rand connection didn't do them any favours in my eyes, either.

You have to bear in mind that that stuff was closer to what my parents would have been listening to, while I was into the likes of Cream, Jethro Tull, Traffic, etc. Nowadays, I don't mind hearing a bit of that cheesy MOR stuff occasionally, but I wouldn't say it was high up in my favourites.

I particularly liked the bit in the Wikipedia entry about the "lion-like lamb which rises to deliver victory after being slain". Seemed appropriate for the Villa.
