Oh yes, that was the second song I was gonna ask about. I do really like the music video for Must Be Dreaming as well
thank you I like yours, it reminds me of a coding language (both visually in style / folder root format and aesthetically with the colour scheme). do you know monokai colour scheme? that's one of my favorites for coding.
yes i do!! i like monokai too, it's one of the very first themes i used for coding! i'm thinking of adding more of those in the theme switcher <3
Felt bad for leaving the runner up for Caress of Steel blank so I put the Necromancer in.
Except maybe call it something other than shrine, something that doesn't imply deification.
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.
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)?
It’s got wires that vibrate, and give music What can this thing be that I found?
Do you have any recordings of your music / bass guitar? would be so cool to hear it
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.
Oh, I almost forgot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jm4LoOaAWI Take off, eh!
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. :)

Hey, graph theory is beautiful T-T no I haven't but with how artificial neural nets are graphs it makes sense that the real thing could be modeled in the same way. I'm taking a reading course in July with my supervisor on complex networks so there might be an opportunity for me there :3 Thanks for the follow!! (love the vegan recipes btw)
Hey that's pretty cool! The 'oh no graph theory' was sarcastic just to clarify. I actually found it pretty interesting to read about though I am not a mathematician by any stretch of the imagination. Best wishes on your project 👍
