Digital Man Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 It sounds like you are talking about when he opens & closes his hands like you would if you were moving a puppets mouth? It's called "Happy Hands". He did this at the Vegas show last summer also, I believe. I don't know the origins though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has certain times when he does this.. Sometimes it's when he is being playful with Big Al.. He usually does it a couple of times during YYZ.. I think it's funny.... He does it after his little bass solo on Driven... I think it's his way of saying "My brain hurts and I'm not really sure what I'm doing up here, and I think I should be silly and goofy"....

Mandalorian Hunter Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Or, a fly seems to come on the stage and land on Geddy's head at the same moment on each show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slacker Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 "It sounds like you are talking about when he opens & closes his hands like you would if you were moving a puppets mouth"?... I always took it he wants the crowd to sing with him! Always does it during Tom Sawyer.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
