To this day, still one of the best album sides ever recorded imo. Friggin' Alex Lifeson... respect Queued at the 12:50 solo, but 17:10 has another good one too)
Oh man, when it comes to Alex, this is the piece that always stands out in my head. You just don't hear this sort of thing anymore...1/32nd notes on a guitar?!? (Or are they 1/64th? Just nuts)
Hahaha... or in Brit.. the demisemiquavers? That's kinda not how it works though when describing what he does. That stuff is more for a drummer or keyboard type gluing the structure of a song together. (Now who's being semantical VZ?) His appeal was from what he created through the use of the effects he ran his guitar through. I mean yeah he certainly rips up and down the fingerboard, but there's a gillion guys that can do that. The genius was in the sound he created using the effects available to him, both early on and thru the years. There are purists that criticize this, as in "it's cheating", but make no mistake, using various electronic methods of manipulating a sound, if the result is something new, unique, and incredible... requires a level of artistic genius that few are born with. Kids can create all kinds of stuff today using all the gadgets out there now, but can they bend the human mind and evoke an emotional response from millions with the sound alone? No. Those folks are few and far between. Ya really gotta hand it to Rush, even more so than the early greats like Pink Floyd or the Stones. What they inspired in the kids that came up listening to them, shaped the next generation of rock music. Had there never been a Rush, we'd have never experienced the likes of Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl changing everything r&r with Nirvana. And that's just one example.
Ooh Stoney... pa-leaze. How so? You post that last Sunday morning and the S&P had closed at 3991.50. It closed Friday around 4032. 40 points... really? What is that, like 1%? Bracketing a year end target to the upside going into the last month of an incredibly volatile year (and everyone knows December is usually a good month) hardly merits any bragging rights. But I'll play along. Let me ask however, is that a year-end close or is that just a possible spike? If you nail the year-end close in your 50 point window, ahhh, you can brag a little... but that level is easily within the up/down range going into December. And one can find plenty of experts saying the same thing. Hey, I'm on the record calling for 4474 by year's end. As it stands, that's not gonna happen. But at least I said that back in July when it was a million miles away. Not on Nov 20th with the S&P at 3990. And NOT changing my tune weekly. So sorry Stoney... there's no savant call there, and certainly no "Damn I'm Good"
3-1/2 trading days later... Lizard King's position is right back where it started. The Lizard King better get out with his lizard-skin while he can. 4000 on the S&P as I type.
Malls are empty, movie theaters are empty, and "buy now, pay later" just hit an all time high according to Adobe analytics. This is not good Lizard King. Your rally is dead.

Stoney are you gonna average down on this one? It's $7.33 now. It dropped 50% + in a month. Not a penny stock either.
