RushRevisited Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 QUOTE (King Rygar @ Nov 18 2004, 11:06 AM) I've never seen them LIVE live, but I thought and still think that I like alot of their stuff from RiR and Show of Hands better than the studio stuff. Alex sounds alot heavier on RiR and I love it. I loved the Pass the first time I had ever heard it was from RiR. After that I was buying all the CD's and kept saying "Damn, which one is that on" I finally found Presto, and after listening to that CD, I couldn't believe it was on there. I hated Presto with a passion at first, but I now love it, if only for Chain Lightning, Pass, and Available Light! Never seen them live???? We are gonna have to change that for you next tour - meet up with us and you will have an unforgettable time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only will we be announcing presale (I got third row in front of Alex for opening night through presale) and giving the password for presale to members here, but we will also have a network for people to get tickets from each other (extras, etc). Nashville was awesome - ya better be at opening night next time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilPeartFan2112 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Rush is the best band I have ever seen live. I saw Metallica, but they just didn't compare with Rush. They are truly amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petsounds75 Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Just got R.I.R. today! More entertained by the interviews and things. I've never really seen Neil talk straight ahead to an interviewer, nor did I know Geddy was so gracious. Alex, of course, is always a goofball. I've had the CD since it came out and sorta like it better than Different Stages, which seemed to me like a Test For Echo tour with a 78 show thrown into it whereas when I heard it was coming out in 1998, I thought it was going to be songs that didn't end up on All The World's A Stage, Exit & Show of Hands along with a few T4E stuff. At any rate, the DVD seems very sweet! Glad I got it...for 15 bucks, no less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_scorpion Posted November 22, 2004 Author Share Posted November 22, 2004 Petsounds75, I have to disagree, slightly! The best part of the DVD, in my opinion, is the actual concert footage, as they are simply AWESOME live!!! The 2nd DVD is entertaining in its own right, but once you've watched the docu. once, it's not as good watching it again......whereas, the concert in RDJ is watchable over and over again etc. ( The look of that guy's face when they start "Overture" of "2112"!!) BTW, what were they LIKE in the Anthem video of 1976 ??!!?? All that attitude of Ged , the hunger for success of Alex and the concentration and will to be the best (you are!!!) of Neil !!!

petsounds75 Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 I don't know. Different Stages sounds sort of "hallow" like it was recorded for some FM live airplay. It's great musicianship as usual, but the sound is sort of one dimensional. I'm big on sound. R.I.R. seems to have a lot more dimension and more variety. The only great thing I think of D.S. is 2112 in it's entirety and Analog Kid. The rest? Just standards it seems. Ok, Natural Science was added. D.S. has nowhere near the clanky high dimension of Show Of Hands, doesn't have the warm feel of Exit and doesn't have the balls that A.T.W.A.S. has. As far as the DVD goes...man, I have the Grace Under Pressure tour VHS, Exit Stage Left VHS, Show Of Hands VHS and various boots...it's good for live, but after you've seen so much live footage of them, the documentary, for me, is a major nice break. It was my first time of seeing the group just speaking straightforward. You have to admit, they're not big "interview one on one" guys unless it's Rockline or something like that.
