The 6 Degrees of Rush

I'm sure you all know how "6 degrees of seperation" works. So I was wondering if anyone could connect themselves to Rush. If you can do it in more than 6, that's fine. Oh, and inane stuff doesn't count (ie, "I met Geddy once" or "I have all their albums").

Ok,

I have a friend called Barry Murphy.

Barry's family came from Ireland.

Ireland is where the finest Guinness is brewed.

Guinness is sold at the Limelight Club in Crewe.

The Limelight Club was home to EuCon last year.

EuCon is a Rush European Convention.

HOWZAT?

not QUITE the same thing, but a friend of mine did this while we were listening to some old Buddy Holly songs:

Buddy Holly and The Big Boffer died in a plane crash

American Pie was written about the night they crashed

Rush Limbaugh suggested to someone that American Pie be their campaign song

I like Rush

at the moment we were listening to Buddy Holly

so it's a circle.

wooT.

No, You're not supposed to form a circle, silly. And yes, I'll let that one go (Was the Limelight club named after a Rush song perchance?)

How about this one:

I used to play bass for a band called Bastille

The band were named after Bastille Day by Rush

Geddy Lee plays bass for Rush.

Many people do, especially the wife, but I can live with it.

Part of his reply was forwared back

I believe so Necromancer. The owner of the Limelight club is a Rush fan.

Here's a picture of it!!!!..........................

If you look closely at the above pic, you'll see me standing in the crowd, 2nd from the right. with my back to the photographer.

Here's a better pic of me standing in the same position.....

Also, across the road from the LIMELIGHT club, there was another venue called Club2112. I don't have any pics of that I'm afraid but it's true.
