Leave out the fiction
The fact is
This friction
Will only be worn by persistence
Leave out conditions
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence

Good day all

Hi Tony
Yes doing one of the London nights with Baz and Dustin πŸ˜€
So rather than being sad when the show I’m at in June is over, I can be happy knowing it’s coming around again 9 months later. Win!
Where you going to see them?

Something is cooking inside me
It ain’t ready, but already..
I’m becoming harder to live with

I’ve decided the easiest way to answer the β€˜what Rush do I want to hear first today?’ question, is to simply wait until @vivien2112.bsky.social posts her early bird lyrics and go with that album. Seems to work for me πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ˜†

No one leaves you
When you live in their heart and mind
And no one dies
They just move to the other side
When we're gone
Watch the world simply carry on
We live on laughing and in no pain
We'll stay and be happy
With those who have loved us today

Every
Time
😭

You can shelve all your debates and polls on β€˜best cover version ever’
Ryan Adams’ version of Taylor Swift β€˜All you had to do was stay’ will forever hold that crown.

It’s a very easy yet satisfying listen. Flows smooth. Good pop music basically and nowt wrong with that!

New Bruce Soord solo ordered for May release. I’ve enjoyed both of his last two solo releases. Very fine songs and immaculate production. Should be on the radio instead of all that fucking banjo shite Amble and Kingfisher 🀬

Empty kitchen at work, time for a good King Buffalo session. Undemanding but so rewarding when you want to wig out to sludgy riffs and space rock with a bit of grunt. Love this band

At home I play the record and am mildly miffed at having to do the record thing between my two favourite tracks. Streamed at work today however, Heathaze into Turn It On Again and not a needle or arse was lifted. Joy

Starlit walk with daughter accompanied by moon. We get such lovely night skies in rural Mayo, with no light pollution. Brain gets fried with all the big questions though.

Imagine that energy in 76 🀩 Maybe you were there you old fart πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
That this came out 50 years ago is mind boggling and VERY triggering for feeling like an old git. I was 6.
See you in 114 days boys. A more palatable number than 50 goddamn years

Some records stay discreetly tucked away, not catching the eye, until they do. Hadn’t played this Murcof album for ages until I was reorganising shelves the other day. Now it’s on heavy rotation again for a while as it’s bloody brilliant

Spirits fly on dangerous missions
Imaginations on fire
Focused high on soaring ambitions
Consumed in a single desire
In the grip of a nameless possession
A slave to a driving obsession
A spirit with a vision is a dream
With a Mission…

Have a great Monday #RushFamily πŸ”΄πŸ’›πŸ”΄β˜•οΈπŸ”΄
