Let's spread some musical misinformation

If Geddy is Yoda...
Alex is Luke (cruel, I know, but somebody in Rush has to play the part)
Neil is Hans

Their promoter is OB-Wand

The band Survivor once faced a very tough career decision - whether to license "Eye of The Tiger" to "Rocky", or "Eye Of The Tigger" to Disney.

Nobody's going to pooh pooh that comment.

Little known fact:The Donnie Iris song Ah! Leah! was written about "Princess Leia" of Star Wars.seems Donnie was smitten by that character. Copyright laws made it impossible to use the name "Princess Leia "in the tittle or the song.They made him spell the name different,and he was not allowed to use any reference to Star Wars. So he changed the name and the lyrics.

Yoda is Geddy. Geddy is Yoda. I'm not sure which star wars character Neil Peart is.

I know...

And all was well until, seduced by the Dark Side, he decided "Play Jazz bass I will". Then there was a such great disturbance in The Force that ten billion souls cried out in agony and breathed their last.

Left-handed Basses also require reverse-round strings. Once the windings are reversed, rounds sound like flats and vice versa. Half-rounds sound only half-empty, as reverse half-rounds are feeling a little flat too.

The biggest problem I find with putting right-wound strings on a lefty bass is that the windings come undone. However, if the bass is south of the equator the process is slowed down somewhat.

Still, though, make sure you have the correct direction of windings on your bass.

I mistakenly bought strings for lefties and after stringing up my righty, the universe imploded and I barely managed to escape into this universe.

Imagine how many parallel universes must be blowing up all the time, just for one simple directional winding change.

That's why E from Eels always uses the wrong strings, as his dad is responsible for all those parallel universes

So you restrung your righty back in 1939?

Everyone knows it was Tesla!

Of course it may have been Count Bassie,Tesla and the Count were both trying to improve the volume of the upright bass. Both were heard to say "I can't hear the bass player,can't somebody turn him up"? So nobodies sure who came up with the original idea.

The first electric bassist had to be plugged in before anyone could tell it to get in the back and turn down. A short circuit in one electric bassist lit flammable percussion gear ablaze, 'firing' the drummer.

Yes . It all started when he thought his amp should be plugged into a 220v circuit.

Don't muddy the waters with that drivel.

It really happened, the muddified waters I mean. Simon and Garfunkel were there when it happened. They were standing on a bridge and looked right down on it.

And with all that happened, those waters the bridge went over were troubled...
