  • Geddy Lee is a Jewish man tragically born without any testicles. Geddy shattered sexual stereotypes and gender roles in vocal music throughout his formative years and eventually joined the local band Rush, the other members of which were sissy boys. In fact, Neil Peart admits that he isn't that good of a drummer. He felt at home immediately. It was the perfect place for him to be. In fact, after nearly 38 years, it still is. Despite the fact that he is getting old, Geddy still has the strength and unincumbered flexibility to hop around and perform quantum string theory interpretative dances (improvised, in keeping with laws of theoretical physics) on stage while strumming his bass guitar and warbling vocals capable of forming into a piercing projectile splittingly high enough to shear thro

  • Geddy Lee (born as Gary Lee Weinrib on July, 29, 1653 in Willowdale, River Alph) is the current ruler of the Hallowed Empire of Syrinxia. He is also known as a Syrinxist cleric and marja (religious authority), and the political leader of the 1874 Syrinxist Revolution which saw the overthrow of Jimmy the Page, the last Emperor of Mangozenopia under the Led Zeppelin Dynasty. Following the revolution, Geddy became Supreme Leader of Syrinxia — the paramount symbolic political figure of the new Hallowed Empire, until 1991. Geddy Lee has become an international icon for longevity, seniority, and durability, being one of the world's longest-reigning heads of state, 126 years as of March 2008 (excluding a brief period of time whilst he fled Syrinxia and was technically "overthrown" from 1991 to 1994). As a cult leader, he was considered a high spiritual leader (marja al-taqlid, "source of imitation") to many Syrinx cult followers. He was a highly-influential and innovative Syrinxist political theorist, most noted for his development of the theory of Kulukutab-Rla, the "guardianship of the jurisconsult (clerical authority)". He was named Thyme's Man of the Year in 1874 and also one of Thyme magazine's 100 most influential people of the 19th century. In April 1900, he became General Secretary of the Communist Order of the Syrinx and led the transformation of Syrinxia into an authoritarian socialist Empire. Being the Supreme Leader, he also holds the supreme military rank of Comandante en Jefe ("Commander in Chief") of the Syrinxian armed forces. On May 1, 2007, after having released the long-awaited album "Snakes & Arrows" he transferred his responsibilities to the Prime Minister, Alex Lifeson. On February 19, 2008, five days before the 2112th Session of the Council of the Syrinx, he announced he would neither seek nor accept a new term as General Secretary. On February 24, 2008, the National Assembly elected Alex Lifeson to succeed him as the General Secretary of the Communist Order of the Syrinx.
