Invite Rush to the March for Freedom

Something for Nothing

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8K8Tt3qEGmk

This is a great much overlooked Rush song. Please read the lyrics, listen to the song and you will see it is very pertinent to the freedom message of Ron Paul.

Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbow's end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways
You pass the days

Waiting for someone to call
And turn your world around
Looking for an answer
To the question you have found
Looking for
An open door

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

What you own is your own kingdom
What you do is your own glory
What you love is your own power
What you live is your own story
In your head is the answer
Let it guide you along
Let your heart be the anchor
And the beat of your own song

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be
 
Every time I see this thread title I think it's about Rush Limbaugh.

I would like to see Limbaugh at the DC rally however.

On a spear.
 
Rush!

Thanks for the jams! reminds of when Isaw them during the Presto tour. I was in Hampton Roads VA at the time good times.

I always thought of Rush as "thinking mans rock & roll"
Ron Paul is "the thinking mans" candidate.

Now it all makes sense.
 
HAha, I'm turning crazy.
Last night I saw a dream where Ron Paul visited my house and after a short chat I told him about inviting Rush to the march :D

Haha, you know, i think Rush does support ron paul deep in his gut but, someones holding a gun to his head.

I keep thinking that's what this threads about too, lol.
 
Free Will

Words by Neil Peart, music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson

There are those who think that life is nothing left to chance
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance.

A planet of playthings,
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive.
"The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign"
Blame is better to give than receive.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose free will.

There are those who think that they were dealt a losing hand,
The cards were stacked against them
They weren't born in lotus land.

All preordained
A prisoner in chains
A victim of venomous fate.

Kicked in the face,
You can pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose free will.

Each of us
A cell of awareness
Imperfect and incomplete.
Genetic blends
With uncertain ends
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet.

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose free will.
 
Well now that the date is set for June 21st, Rush has it's last gig before that date in 15th in Boston. The next gig is 25th in Indianapolis. Well Rush has at least time for it, so go for it campaign! :)
 
What about Newt?

What about Newt Gingrich? He knows his stuff and must surely be sympathetic to the constitutionalist, limited government, etc., position. :)
 
Hey Matthew P. do you not read more than the heading of a post before you make a comment?
Wake up Matthew this thread is about Rush the Canadian progressive rock trio not Rush Limbaugh. So unless Newt Gingrich has a new band that has lyrics recognizing freedom, integrity and the individual don't bring him up in this thread.
 
Rush would be awesome - saw them twice last summer. I know that Neil Peart is a libertarian. It would be sick if they showed up for the cause because this effects Canada as well. Freewill!
 
I would love to see RUSH play there. So many of their songs and Neil Peart's lyrics are relevant to our cause and in line with Ron Paul's message.
 
Rush would be awesome. Maybe ask Dream Theater while you guys are at it. I know some of them have pretty strong feelings against the war.
 
Anthem

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCccQNL-pBY

Know your place in life is where you want to be,
Don't let them tell you that you owe it all to me.
Keep on looking forward; no use in looking 'round;
Hold your head above the ground and they won't bring you down.

Anthem of the heart and anthem of the mind
A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind
We marvel after those who sought
The wonders of the world, wonders of the world,
Wonders of the world they wrought.

Live for yourself -- there's no one else
More worth living for
Begging hands and bleeding hearts will only cry out for more

Well, I know they've always told you
Selfishness was wrong
Yes it was for me, not you, I came to write this song

Chorus
 
Rush the band or Rush Limbaugh?

If it's Limbaugh I would love to see him at the rally.

...tied to a stake with lots of burning wood around him.
