exiledyorkie Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) Huh. So I wonder why he had such a small part in that, I mean so many different people had a solo line or two, maybe he just didn’t want one?I barely heard him. Oh I can totally hear his distinctive warble, lol. Edited April 27, 2020 by exiledyorkie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I viewed highlights of the event on CTV's website. There was individual music performances by major and indie acts, then the virtual group music collaboration which Geddy was a part of, or celebs providing messages of awareness without performing.

LerxstDash2112 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 It’s honestly kinda disgraceful that crappy pop stars were directly associated with the awesomeness of Geddy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted April 27, 2020 Author Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) It’s honestly kinda disgraceful that crappy pop stars were directly associated with the awesomeness of Geddy. I'll bet Geddy was thinking of the charitable cause as the main thing, it was nice of so many Canadian artists to appear. But yeah, we all know there is the Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson etc tier of artists and then there are others.

Here's the Stronger Together, Tous Ensemble page. Scroll down the page vertically and you'll see Performances and Special Messages & More. If you click the red arrow to the right, you can scroll horizontally and see who appears. Some of the acts you mentioned do appear. If you can't view the clips due to geographical restrictions, there's nothing I can do about that. Edited April 27, 2020 by RushFanForever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushFanForever Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Was there a bass solo? Not interested otherwise! Geddy didn't play bass on the song. This is a virtual ensemble cover of 'Lean On Me' by Bill Withers. Geddy's part was filmed in this studio, where he was surrounded by some of his basses. That's as bass as you're going to get.

blackhawkrush Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 You can definitely hear Ged's voice when he's there... at least I canYou can hear him but just barely, because there's somebody yelling over his voice. Rush yet again has been placed on the backburner. And what is Jeremy Roenick doing in this video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exiledyorkie Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) Not sure why we are all getting bent out of shape because you cant hear Geddy, whether you like it or not, he will become less and less OF a prominent figure as time goes by. The real focus is it's a message of hope here people. I'm just happy he is on the video. Speaking of amazing people, this guy, Captain Tom Moore who I share a birthday and birthplace is Da MAN. https://www.justgivi...mswalkforthenhs Edited April 27, 2020 by exiledyorkie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushFanForever Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) The awareness clip is on YouTube now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpId7v0GVho I just realized that this clip isn't uploaded in full from CBC Music. They cut some of the part out with Geddy encouraging people to donate to the food bank. Edited April 28, 2020 by RushFanForever 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytserush Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 This is a virtual version of 'Tears Are Not Enough'. Essentially the same thing. This time there is social distancing. Seemed like Geddy didn't seem to have is heart in it either I think he took one for the team. Poor guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 You can definitely hear Ged's voice when he's there... at least I canYou probably just willed yourself to hear it by forcing a version Closer of to the Heart into your mind. Hahahahaha! This is for a great cause but really? Obviously Geddy's mic was turned off. I didn't hear shit. What a joke.The pop wankers are scared of good musicians. It's like black magic to them, it's like vampires and holy water, it makes them sweat at night in their beds... I agree. They mute the Legend and let the young singers go at it and pretty much put me to sleep....... I need some YYZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz instead.Earl,. I thought you and your new gal eloped.
