I'm watching the Colbert Report, because I wanted to see Rush. People, Geddy Lee is wearing Blackbeard's battle flag!

Rush and pirates, all at once....excuse me, I have to go lose my fangirlish mind for a little while.

The fumes from the chemicals I'm using to clean must have eaten my brain, because when I first read this I thought "Why is my captain so happy that Rush Limbaugh has someone on wearing a pirate flag?"

Then I went outside, got some air and cleared my head.

That would be wicked funny, for Rush Limbaugh to wear a Blackbeard flag!

I once saw RUSH in concert and it was one of THE most amazing thing I've ever seen!

Am I a geek if I admit I saw them three times?

Wow, sorry for the late comment, but I totally missed it, having been on vacation last week, darn it!

But hey, I should have brought the pirate connection to your attention earlier - it started in 2004 on the R30 (30th Anniversary) tour, when Geddy sang one verse of the Temples section of 2112 with modified lyrics and a pirate accent:

"Arrr, we are the pirates of the Temples of Syrinx.
All the gifts of life are... down below!
Avast mateys!"

Check it out; it's on the R30 DVD.

Oh yeah, I've seen them 10 times, but believe it or not that's pretty low among Rush fans.
