custom55 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I know this is an old interview with Van Halen ( 1989 ) but Eddie does a quick mention Rush and it's the first time I'm hearing it so I'd thought I would share. Listen around 6:00-6:40. I guess it's a compliment ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Not sure what his point is. He's talking meter which is a rhythmic element and says we are I, IV, V which is referring to notes/chords for example in the key of a the I is A the IV is D and the V is E. not sure what the comparison is but he did do a lot of drugs too.

EagleMoon Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I think his point is just that Van Halen is a basic band, they don't do anything technical. Kind of like AC/DC on steroids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JARG Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 It doesn't strike me as a compliment or a slight. He was just throwing Rush out there as an example of a band that does more complex arrangements and compositions than VH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
