While listening to one of my old favorite bands The Fixx and this particular track, I couldn't help but think of the meaning and the timeliness.
Crying parents tell their children If you survive don't do as we did A son exclaims there'll be nothing to do to Her daughter says she'll be dead with you While foreign affairs are screwing rotten, Line morale has hit rock bottom Dying embers stand forgotten Talks of peace were being trodden Stand or fall, state your peace tonight Stand or fall, state your peace tonight Is this the value of our existence Should we proclaim with such persistence Our destiny relies on conscience Red or blue, what's the difference Stand or fall, state your peace tonight Stand or fall, state your peace tonight It's the Euro theatre It's the Euro theatre It's the Euro theatre An empty face reflects extinction Ugly scars divide the nation Desecrate the population There will be no exhaultation Stand or fall, state your peace tonight Stand or fall, state your peace tonight It's the Euro theatre It's the Euro theatre It's the Euro theatre Stand or fall Stand or fall Stand or fall Stand or fall |

"I followed the sound of a jukebox coming from up the levee
All of a sudden, I could hear somebody whistling from right behind me I turned around, and she said: "Why do you always end up down at Nick's Cafe ?" I said: "Uh, I don't know, the wind just kinda pushed me this way" (...) I'm a man with a clear destination I'm a man with a broad imagination You fog the mind, you stir the soul I can't find no control (...) Wait, did you hear that ? Oh, this is sure stirring up some ghosts for me She said: "There's one thing you gotta learn, is not to be afraid of it" I said: "No, I like it, I like it, it's good" She said: "You like it now, but you'll learn to love it later"" Robbie Robertson - "Somewhere Down The Crazy River" (1987): (alternative source if the video is blocked in your region: here)

Thanks for that. Neil truly was one of the greatest drummers to ever pick up the sticks. I wasn't at that show but I did see Rush live here in Halifax in 2013. It was a fantastic show and Neil did perform a great solo although not quite as long as this one. I'd had a couple of beers and a couple shots of whiskey and was air-drumming along with Neil and completely making an ass of myself. I must have been doing not too bad of a job though because a total stranger asked if I was a drummer.

I blame it on the... no that's wrong. I thank the whiskey for giving me the courage to not give a f*ck and just enjoy the show my own way.
