| I think I have decided that my number one choice for college is College of Charleston in South Carolina. Just by accident this school happens to be in the city I wan to live in after college. I chose this school because they have a Jazz performance program that centers around jazz history, theory, and performance, and this really interests me. I will be applying as a music major, and now all I have to do is plan an audition... fool-in-training Member # 7135 posted September 10, 2003 09:21 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Who really cares who is ranked where by Rolling Stone or anyone else? We dig the guy, we love his music, and truthfully, we probably love them more because the don't really care about the norm, or conforming to the corporate mentality of what sells, and what is "good". Jeez, look at some of their best songs- 2112, Natural Science, La Villa (The Trees, for that matter, talks exactly about the detriments of conformity and how everyone is lessened by hatchet, axe and saw) just to name a few. Do you honestly think anyone other than a die hard Rush fan would buy an album with stuff like that on it? Hell, no. Would they make the album anyway? Of course. That is what makes Alex, Geddy and Neil special as individuals, and even more special as a band. They don't make music for MTV or VH1 or Rolling Stone, they make if for themselves, and their families, and for us. They play and write and sing what is in their Hearts and Minds, and we love it. I don't think they care about Rolling Stone, and I am pretty sure they didn't lose any sleep over it. ______________ couldnt have said that better myself |
