"YYZ" (natively pronounced WY-WY-ZED) is an #instrumentalRock composition by the Canadian rock band #Rush from their 1981 album #MovingPictures. The live album #ExitStageLeft (1981) and the concert video recording #AShowOfHands (1989) both include versions in which #NeilPeart incorporates a drum solo – as an interlude on the former, and as a segue out of the piece on the latter.

The Fall, a 2006 remake of 1981's Yo Ho Ho, is a beautiful, funny, sweet, melancholic movie about human frailty, connection, and resilience.
A love letter to the movies, and homage, like The Stunt Man, to the stunt performers who have always helped movie magic seem real, often—and still—at great personal cost.
Catinca Untaru is delightful, opposite a baby-faced Lee Pace.

"Limelight" is a song by Canadian #progressiveRock band #Rush. It first appeared on the 1981 album #MovingPictures. The song's lyrics were written by #NeilPeart with music written by #GeddyLee and #AlexLifeson. "Limelight" expresses Peart's discomfort with Rush's success and the resulting attention from the public.

This week we had two trailers for big Cyberpunk TV series: Blade Runner 2099 and Neuromancer. On the one hand: cool! On the other hand: hm. Let’s see if it’s a good idea to look at the future the 80s foresaw through a late 2020s lens.

OK, Rush WITH Neal Peart on deck.
#MusicOfMastodon
#80sRock
#MovingPicturesAll the world's indeed a stage
And we are merely players
Performers and portrayers
Each another's audience
Outside the gilded cage
Living in the Limelight The universal dream
For those who wish to seem
Those who wish to be must put aside the alienation
Get on with the fascination
The real relation, the underlying theme -
It's National Popcorn Day!
Popcorn features heavily in Moving Pictures. Do you remember what it's called in the book and who invented it?

This morning we moved more than 20 of my large glazed #paintings into storage with a dear friend in #Eynsham, #Oxfordshire, close to our #NewHome - into which we move in just TWO weeks.
Thank goodness for my daughter-in-law & her vintage VW #campervan. 🙏 They'd never all fit in our Mini!

#MovingPicturesCast in this unlikely role
Ill-equipped to act
With insufficient tact
One must put up barriers to keep oneself intact

The universal dream
For those who wish to seem

Must put aside the alienation
