Felt bad for leaving the runner up for Caress of Steel blank so I put the Necromancer in.

I should just set up a Shrines section under Misc and shove a bunch of really obsessive Rush stuff there.

Except maybe call it something other than shrine, something that doesn't imply deification.

Made a favorite Rush songs page with some explanation for why I picked them. https://pixelglade.net/misc/funstuff/jukebox/favoriterushsongs.html

Great band. I've seen them 3 times in concert. I also played bass guitar in a rock band in high school with an amazing drummer who was totally into Rush so we played a bunch of their songs. He went on to play for a reasonably famous professional band.

What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth sound.

OMFG I wish I could have seen them in concert, but I only got on the bandwagon after they had retired and Neil Peart died :( Do you have a favorite song or album (I'm guessing you love 2112 too haha)?

Do you have any recordings of your music / bass guitar? would be so cool to hear it

arkmsworld 11 months ago

I think I first heard them on the radio with their Moving Pictures album. Unfortunately, I didn't really get to see them the first time in concert until their Power Windows tour. I love all of their music from Rush up through Signals, after that, not as much. They were always amazing in concert, though, no matter what album they were on tour for. One of the best sounding live bands I've ever heard.

Favorite song....I dunno, maybe Red Barchetta, Limelight, 2112, or this..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEuOoMprDqg

I don't have any recordings of our old stuff anymore. I wish I did but it's been years. We actually made a demo tape of three original songs our guitarist wrote the lyrics and guitar part for...then we each added our own parts. Don't have that either anymore. :( I've moved around a LOT in my life and possessions go their own way over time, lol.

Neal took alot of inspiration from dystopian Ayn Rand novels, which of course inspired me to read them. Anthem and The Fountainhead were my 2 favorites. Anthem is short, about 100 pages as I recall, and was the first one I read.

pixelglade 11 months ago

Xanadu is a great song! I ended up reading Anthem and The Fountainhead because of Rush too. I considered Atlas Shrugged but it is extremely long and I struggled through the second half of The Fountainhead because characters increasingly went on several page ranting monologues. It's a shame your recordings weren't saved - do you still play? Maybe you can make some new recordings. :)

Also I've had Take Off on repeat for awhile haha even though I'm not from The Great White North. Ten bucks is ten bucks!

No, I haven't played bass since maybe my first year of college. I sort of picked it up because I wanted to play music and that's what the bands I played in needed (bass players were always in short supply). But listening to people like Geddy Lee, John Paul Jones, Stanley Clarke, and others instilled a love of the instrument in me. It's something I wouldn't mind exploring again someday. Still, I've always been a bit

more into guitars - especially acoustic guitars. I have an old Fender that I dabble on occasionally. Even more than that, though, I've always been a singer, though never professionally. That's where my true love is. :)

Thank you!

Hey space-bar, thought the pixel art and retro aestethetic was cool. I also really love your Jukebox - the they/them non-binary resistance song is pretty neat.

Thanks for visiting my site! I change the jukebox song every so often :D

could have sworn i was already following you! well i am now ^^ i never got as deep into the research feild as you had, not going past a bachlors in chemistry, but the research competition put me off from the beginning :/ i feel like it leads to research teams fudging data so they are more likely to get published (which they need in order to make a living)

Hey solaria! I agree, actually I saw a case of data fudging and they got fired. But yeah, I focused the science page mostly on positive stuff because I don't wanna drag down the web with drama and sadness. I basically burned out and couldn't go on with it. There's a lot wrong with academia. I did really enjoy exploring the fields of psychology and neuroscience though. What area of chemistry did you study?

solaria 1 year ago

@pixelglade i didnt get far enough to get into a particular area, i was in my senior year of my chem degree and ended up dropping out because i couldnt see a future for myself in it. part of the problem was that i couldnt come uo with a research project. my gut feeling was to do something with colors, but i felt like i had so much to learn before i could come up with my own research

pixelglade 12 months ago

all research is effectively based on what came before, but colours sound really cool. totally understand not seeing a future in science though

My Rush obsession is taking form on the internet. To share some more tunes I'm sharing my most played songs: https://pixelglade.net/misc/funstuff/jukebox/toprushsongs.html
