D3strukt Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 So, i'm noticing Geddy is being lazy with jacobs ladder, I.E. triggering a sample with one finger (no wonder he's bored as shit).I can't tell if he's actually playing the solo during the synth solo part, however, it would be unwise to show him at all during the DVD at that part, since if he isn't actually playing the actual keys and is only triggering the solo that would be incredibly boring to watch. If someone can aleviate this fear, please feel free to do so. Normally when he solos on it, it shows his fingers working away, like on the moog during TS and Subdivisions.

bordercollie Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 He's playing the solo. It's tempo has varied throughout the tour, and he's hit a bum note before. Geddy is lazy with a lot of synth stuff on recent tours. At least he still properly plays Subdivisions I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Didn't he mess up the intro to Subdivisions one night? Was it Philly? No. It was the first Toronto show. A night that will live in Rush infamy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctbadger Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 AFAIAC Geddy can be lazy. He's earned it! Better to focus on singing and playing bass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who saw it live I can assure you he is playing that part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3strukt Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 I saw it live as well, thats the thing. It's good that he's playing the solo though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 If the solo was pre programmed & triggered then Neil would need to use a click track which he doesn't do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
