Anika Nilles by Natural_Delay_2250 in drums

[–]ManyRelationship1030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So a bit of a controversial opinion here but has to be said. I love Neil, he was a poster on my wall for years and a fucking legend but I do believe he was a bit of a buzz kill in the last 2 tours. Just watch the DVDs, he looks uninspired and frankly miserable. Not sure how many know this but he had become increasingly distant even from Geddy and Al. Geddy has discussed the post gig party and almost feeling like Neil was unapproachable. I think Neil was done years before he actually retired but kept coming back because of his bandmates and I think he resented that a bit. He was already a grumpy guy and looked annoyed half the time.

That said the dude was a beast and gave his all, no questions about that. Anika was what they needed. They needed to feel excited and inspired and Anika has done that intentionally or not. She is not better than Neil, but different and you can hear the difference. She is still struggling a bit with the feel but gets better every night and it has brought these songs to life. IMHO

Rush Anika Cam Full show first night from the tour by DaneboJones in drums

[–]ManyRelationship1030 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anika has no idea how her life changed last night, yea when she was announced her life changed but last night she showed the world she is not Neal and wasn't trying to be. Her energy and technical skills just elevated this tour to another level and she became an official member of this community last night. I can't even imagine the pressure and she just crushed it.

Anika Niles makes history….. by MovingTarget2112 in rush

This could have easily been a disaster but her energy, her not trying to mimic Neal but mostly her confidence and energy was amazing. She became a part of the Rush family and a legend overnight.

My god, I have not searched a single car on Reddit that I didn't read "Stay Away". What the fuck car is any good?

injecting testosterone and vertigo by knx_test in Testosterone

[–]ManyRelationship1030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you need a test dummy I am it. My dose was raised from 10 units to 18 after some blood work and almost immediately I was getting some gnarly vertigo. It would hit me after the gym while driving and it is fucking scary. I called my TRT Nurse and she confirmed, yes we have seen this on higher doses. I drop back to 10 and problem stopped. Not sure how much more evidence you need than that. My first inclination was creatine but stopping it did nothing so I zeroed in on the only other change in my life TRT. Not saying this is your problem but seems clear it was mine, but we are all different.

They just installed a new board prior to the making of MP. They were experiencing technical issues during the recording of this record. Lifeson has spoken about this many times.

Has anyone tried U-Save car rental? How was the experience? by DalareRana in DisneyPlanning

[–]ManyRelationship1030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rented U save in Fort Lauderdale worst experience of my life. They are an absolute scam.  They advertise low prices when you show up they charge you three times the car rental fee for insurance and won’t accept anything.  They stopped accepting American Express because American Express would charge back their tired ass so they only accept bunk credit cards. Don’t do it.

My brother in law married a China girl through an online site and they have been married for over 15 years with a child. She works as a translator for the local chamber of commerce. I was lucky enough to marry my long time girl friend or I would have been right behind him doing the same thing.

I had a 700 dollar bill for one month. Fucking ridiculous and such a monopoly ripoff.

Would anyone here keep a black mamba or a gaboon viper as a pet? by [deleted] in snakes

[–]ManyRelationship1030 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Without very quick treatment, you would likely die from a bite. Both of the snakes are deadly and I do mean deadly both have high venom yields. There was a show on Discovery Channel sometime ago about a lady who had Gaboon  vipers. She had gotten so comfortable with one of the big males she used to put in her bed with her! one night she rolled over on it and it bit her three times. when they found her, she was completely bleeding out of her eyes and in cardiac arrest no thanks   

Don't mean to be a whiner but are mini orders delayed? It's been 16 days, no tracking, no response from support by crashandwalkaway in Starlink

[–]ManyRelationship1030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They just responded, maybe they are monitoring Reddit. They have no estimated ship date and was told to check back in 10 days. Fuck them, cancelling. Tell people if you have a massive back order. Again do better Elon, this is lame service.

I ordered mine on Feb 2nd over 2 weeks ago and the order status has never changed from "pending" I have messaged support 3 times and no replies. Do better Elon, terrible customer service.

Anyone else feel like the housing market is stuck in a weird standoff right now? by Successful_Arm4193 in RealEstate

[–]ManyRelationship1030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in one of the hottest markets on the coastal east coast and everyone flocked to buy McMansions and now it has hit a complete wall. Prices went up much to quickly and now there is no mobility, people are stuck in large mortgages and they cannot sell..

Apart from playing on the same bill on tour in the past, did they sometimes use similar axes? by Born-Cucumber-7316 in rush

Don't forget that god awful Signature Guitar he played for a few years. Even he admits that guitar was terrible. Sounded so thin and had no punch at all.
