re: Favorite Rush Moments

I remember another good one. In his very early days, Rush would play pre-recorded public service announcements during commercial breaks because he couldn’t sell all his air time to advertisers yet. One time, he played a legit PSA about how young women were prone to suicide because of teasing, etc. In the ad, she ends up finding her dad’s pistol and shoots herself. Rush altered the PSA to add a second gunshot which made no sense if anyone actually paid attention.

He also talked about taking a limo from New Orleans to the northshore with members of the Brennan family to see their farm. He said that the simple people in the area were all gawking at the big fancy limo. I got over that though.

Lastly, I remember when he got a last minute invitation to ride in Bacchus. He was on one of the normal floats and looked like he was having a great time.
