LedRush Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I think something like this is very possible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJyX6izCL6o Ged could sing the first and third parts of the Necromancer, but not the second. Also, if you have By-Tor as a good guy and a bad guy in the same song, the universe explodes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy's Soul Patch Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I think something like this is very possible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJyX6izCL6o Ged could sing the first and third parts of the Necromancer, but not the second. Also, if you have By-Tor as a good guy and a bad guy in the same song, the universe explodes. There's no way Ged could sing any of the Necromancer. Maybe the first couple lines haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 I wonder if Geddy knew he wouldn't be able to sing the seventies' songs in forty years time whether he would have sang them so high? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I wonder if Geddy knew he wouldn't be able to sing the seventies' songs in forty years time whether he would have sang them so high? he probably didn't think rush would still be around in 2014 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losingit2k Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I doubt that they would commit so much time in a concert to a song that is among one of the most divisive among Rush fans. Maybe they'll make a medley of 70's songs to rival the R30 overture, and include a snippet. Also, Geddy would never strain his voice singing anything from the song, and if they were to play it, it would have to be tuned very far down and the song would lose any charm it still had Something like this: (Of course the name would change to R41) LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

len(songs) Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) An instrumental version (maaaaybe omitting the narration although I've grown to like it) would be great. Otherwise, it wouldn't work solely because Geddy would in no way be able to even approximate his CoS vocal delivery.

EagleMoon Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I think we should be grateful if we even get another tour. Who really cares what they play as long as they're touring? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 In that case.... Dear Vincent: Please make sure that Rush does Xanadu and The Weapon this tour. And ask them to send me a front row center seat. If I think of anything else I would want, I will write again. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

GrandDesigner Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I think they could do the last section of this song instrumentally as an outro to some other song. I don't think the band thinks very highly of this song anymore and probably has no interest in really playing it, but I could see them doing an instrumental teaser as a way to appease those who've been wanting to hear a full CoS song since the early 80's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Necromancer, he's all doom and gloom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
