Geddy used to have his amps behind him, but then he started just plugging his bass into the PA system so there was this huge empty space behind him. One night the roadies decided to just put random stuff behind him, and it was funny and the fans loved it; so they started doing it from then on. They chose washing machines for the Vapor Trails tour.

Brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald opened the first McDonald's in 1940 in San Bernardino, California, serving barbecue alongside its burgers - fries weren't even on the menu. By 1948 the pair had perfected the art of fast food with a process they named the 'Speedee Service System'. Barbecue was dropped from the menu to improve service time, and the brothers designed this winking chef character, Speedee, to help communicate the message.
