That is fairly interesting. One of those and a fatfinger, and you're GTG!

There’s just no way to have a rational discussion here over how safe is safe enough when it comes to C19. Is forbidden!
The Rolls Royce hood ornament has a name - Spirit of Ecstasy
TIL that @the harp unstrung has a short memory (or maybe just missed the heads-up back in May):
What did you learn today?
The lizard brain is a freaky thing. Thank goodness for frontal lobes.
RUSH composed 'Spirit Of The Radio', and to this day I'm ecstatic every time I hear it... probably just need a new receiver.
After almost 40 years and many fits of frustration, I think I may have just nailed the drive section of Yes’s Roundabout. It took COVID woodsheding to finally get me over the hump.
"When we remember that we are all insane, then the world is clearly explained."
Last week I learned that many/most rush bass tabs (that I am interested in) aren't right.
In further Rolls Royce news, today I learned that every time you see a Rolls with a pinstripe, that completely-straight pinstripe was painted by hand by a man named Mark Court. It is the last process in the manufacturing process, the paint apparently is specially-formulated to instantly bond to the paint on the car, so there is absolutely extremely little room for error and requires extremely deep levels of focus.
Most internet tabs and chord charts are suspect, some are just plain wrong!
Modelled on Eleanor Thornton for Lord Montagu’s RR.
She was holding a finger to her lips as in whispering ‘shhh, it’s a secret’. The secret of course, was that she was having an affair with Lord Montagu.
Later on RR started using this, or a version of it, as a standard radiator mascot as they were unhappy with the choices of some owners.
I'm right with you, except that it's "The Spirit of Radio."
Geddy even says it out loud when he introduces the song on Exit... Stage Left:
I've never been sure how that mixup happens, but oh well.

I think they did a movie about her about a decade ago. I’ll google when I get a chance
Lol! I've been saying it that way, for years. I have no idea where I picked it up from.
