RUSH Jam Picture Archive

There to kick it off at 6AM (Devin, Aaron, Dave, Ron)

Fritters and PBR ahoy! A RushJam staple.

Ron studying for RushJam exam.

Little did Brian know that the Zima Gold had his name on it!

Out of nowhere, a renegade beaver latched onto Dave's face.

Devin and Aaron too busy playing video games to offer assistance to Dave.

Paula having another RushJam staple, Oooey Gooey Blueberry French Toast.

Count the bottles, must be on album six

Atomic batteries to power...

...turbines to speed...

Holy impossibilities Batman!

He's coming in hot!

OUCH!!

The crowd is laughing with Dave. Seriously!

Skel has arrived. Now we can get this thing going!

Cece exerts her power by making Skel smack himself.

Amelia exerts her power by making Luke pull her around the pool.

Maura making use of the slide before Dave breaks it.

What power. Amelia has Aaron, Devin, Maura, and Luke under her control.

Amelia and Skel enjoying some quality time.

Aaron and Devin found the piranahs!

Amelia, Luke, Skel, and Aaron.

Umm..Aaron? Anyone?

Impressive launch!

Wow, serious points for landing on the slide like that!

Mich has also arrived, but is still waiting for her deoderant to dry.

Skel and Amelia ejoying the peaceful pool.

Maura is also enjoying the peacefulness of the pool.

Death from above!!!

Another potentially unwise decision, but hey, who's counting, it's RushJam!

The slide held! The slide held! God be praised!

Jan, "That's why we can't have nice things!"

Darryl gives PBR a thumbs up. I like the cut of his jib.

Hmm..fire good.

Lunch time!

Paula, Jan, and Mich, bathing beauties.

Ron giving thanks. Life is good.

Advanced Hokey Pokey.

Be wary Skel, Posty has a guilty smile on his face.

The crew sits unaware as Darryl flashes a gang symbol.

Death from above strikes again.

Ron judges the calibre of his ball...

...he shoots...

...BOOM goes the dynamite!

Ron has a serious advantage out of the water.

Hey Mich, how's it goin' eh?

I think someone glued Darryl and Jan to their chairs.

Brian came in for the sniff test. Dave is next in line.

Skel lets the small fish score while eyeing a bigger prize.

Rejected!!

Rocket powered Devin.

Rocket powered Aaron.

Yeah right!

It's OK Dave, maybe we can try again later.

The crowd watches in hushed silence as Dave and Devin take shots at the same time.

Floating heads need floating drinks.

Dave you're supposed to clink glasses, not bash noses.

A toast to RushJam and friends.

Water, water everywhere...let's all take a drink.

Devin uses his patented "scary face" defense on Aaron.

Dave knows what buttons to push on Brian.

Don't try to blame Skel, we know that was you Dave.

The Centaur goes for a dip.

Dave can be so sneaky. He's like a Ninja.

Skel uses the Crane move to combat Dave's depth charge.

While Dave feigns sleep, Brian and Kevin prepare their attack.

Brian goes in for the initial attack on Dave...

...but Brian needs the additional help from Kevin.

A modest victory, but we fear we have only awakened a sleeping giant.

The giant now starts throwing innocent children, beginning with Aaron.

The giant throws Aaron again, while Devin doesn't have the sense to get out of there.

The giant now throws Devin.

The giant throws Devin again while Aaron clearly shows his fear.

Brian tries to quell this "throwing" giant..

...and succeeds to a certain degree.

Brian at least diverts the giant's attention from the children.

Brian tries working on mutual trust with the giant.

The giant obviously fails this exercise in trust.

Brian and the giant seem to have worked out their trust issues.

Brian is risking personal harm while making progress with the giant.

"See? Carrying people can be as enjoyable as throwing them!"

Brian is trying to keep the giant calm.

Brian can clearly feel the giant's rage starting to swell.

The giant reverts to throwing people...

...but Brian will take the baby steps that were made.

Brian tries to reverse the roles to gain the giant's trust.

Steady...

...steady...

"Falling giant funny." Humor breaking down barriers.

OK let's try this again.

(brapapapapap)

"Aw man that almost took my head off!"

OK I think we got this.

Yep, piece of cake!

It's not a question of where he grips him. It's a simple matter of weight ratios.

Time for a public bath.

"Heh heh heh, stupid people. I'm making soup."

When the two thumbs pop up, Dave is fully cooked.

Devin has picked the carcass clean and is looking for more.

Darkness has come to RushJam...

...and people gather around the fire while Aaron says a prayer.

A ritual sacrifice of a PBR and some brain cells to keep the 2112 gods sated.

Ron also joins in on the 2112 sacrifice.

Aaron is confused by what he sees and Kevin is happy he is not looking in that direction.

Ah Devin.

I really do not know what we were doing here (possibly large motor skill test).

Listening to Rush with friends by the fireside (but no uncle in sight).

Yep, I bought it. It's mine.

Tom showed up late the night before and is ready to go for Day 2.

Dave, Day 2 is NOT clothing optional!

Tom is either confused or intrigued by Dave's lack of clothing.

Ron is simply stunned by Dave's lack of clothing.

Left: Bad, old, nasty 4-year old PBR. Right: Fresh PBR. Guess which Brian drank?

"Wow, I really drank 17 of these?"

"How much longer before this is done and I can assume the fetal position again?"

Psst...Dave...we can still see you. And yes, we know you are done.

Dave enjoying Day 2, knowing the Zima Gold now belongs to Brian.

Paula enjoying a fritter on Day 2.

Tom is not sleeping unless everyone saw him.

Party had to move inside due to rain.

Another picture of Dave drinking at RushJam. Huh.

Devin also thought Day 2 was clothing optional. Do not listen to Dave.

The reason we gather.

Another reason we gather.

There for the end: Ron, Dave, Paula, Aaron, Devin.

There for the end: Brian, Ron, Dave, Aaron, Devin.

The damage.

Pretty damage.

Fresh PBR on the left. Bad, old, nasty PBR on the right.
