During the Rush, “Snakes & Arrows” tour, Alex Lifeson’s pedal board had a bunch of “Barbie Dolls” groupies holding up post-it notes written by the roadies and crew…
In this photo, from left to right you can see the following sayings…”I LIKE THE DRUMMER,” “MY GRANDPA SAYS YOUR COOL,” “CAN I ROLL YOUR BONES,” “I’M A DINO-WHORE aka SUCKASAURASS,” “I WAS CONCEIVED WHILE MY DAD WAS AT A RUSH CONCERT,” “HMM ?”
Other sayings have included “I’m Not Wearing Any Panties”, “My Mom Thinks Your Hot!”, “I’m Only Doing This To Pay For College”, “Freebird!”, “I Thought ZZ Top Had Beards”, “Bass Player’s Cute! Is That His Real Nose?”, “I Golf Naked”, “Nice Dinosaurs-You Must Be A Caveman”, “If It’s Too Loud You’re Too Old”.
Lifeson also puts toy Dinosaurs all around his amps and even inside the head…
Here’s a clip of Lifeson talking about his set-up for the tour as well as his Dinosaurs & Aquarium Amp Series. Pretty interesting…
