QUOTE (andrew28 @ Nov 11 2011, 11:53 AM) QUOTE (kevorkazito @ Nov 10 2011, 06:37 PM) This thread gave me some "off-topic" deja-vu about walking a dog and meeting someone famous... I was walking my parents dog about 7 years ago and this dude walks up to me and asks what kind of dog it was. I told him I didn't know and then he mentioned a breed and I said "that's it".
Then, I look at the guy and I recognize him... I say to him, "are you an actor?" He said "yes, we are filming a couple of blocks from here...". We trade pleasantries and part ways... curious? It was the guy who played the NBC president who fell in love with Elaine on Seinfeld.
But meeting Geddy, that would be great. I think he's the coolest of the triumvirate when it comes to interfacing with the public/fans.That would be Bob Balaban. He's in a lot of Christopher Guest's films.
He was pretty cool and knowledgeable about dogs; how weird to bump into him in a neighborhood in Winnipeg on a dark spring night... to this day I can't remember that dog's breed... some Asian word, but not Lhaso Apso LOL!

Sounds great, I like the song.

I've searched all over and that is an elusive one.... who knows??

C'mon!
What a great clip.
You just know that there is a vault out there with these classic concerts. I hope some are released in the future.

Only Phoenix sings my songs... anyone else tries, dies! That is, nice rendition, very Phantom of the Paradise.

I can see it in Canada... pity.
-
That's cool!
Another book to add to the list to get...

I've never heard of the RATM song... is it like Tom Sawyer?
-
That sounds great!
I wish there was something to put in my bong

QUOTE (reani14 @ Nov 1 2011, 06:53 PM) hey. the clip shows it in like a slow motion.. hope the offical isnt that way. or is it just this player its on... That's just compression and network lag... the DVD won't have that problem.

Since I'm trying to learn how to do that myself, it's very helpful for me to learn by watching. Thanks! Notice how he plays the main phrase... he plays the open 'A' power chord using the 1st (fore) finger and then does the pull-off riff using the second finger... much easier to execute than using the fore finger for the whole refrain (like I was doing).
I wish he would do more instruction videos like the three ones he currrently has (Tom Sawyer, Spirit of Radio and Limelight).
I find it a lot easier to use my middle finger when doing the pull offs
It is easier, but I had never tried it before.

I have a hard time to separate the material from the technical capture of it.
Don't like synths filling up the songs along with tacky, pastiche triggered samples. No producer would've changed that. That said I do love the 'whole Rush experience', so I like to understand everything they've done; their career arc.
My vote is with Peter Collins, mostly because CP got me back into listening to Rush (they lost me in the middle of Signals).

Check out Working Man from Time Machine 2011: Live In Cleveland
Alex doing the solos thru his rhythm pickup... never heard that before and it's great!
-
That's hilarious. Sounds like they had a great time. I'll have to get that book.

That's exactly why I love this clip... you can see what he's playing!
He's got more in his channel from that perspective like:

I remember reading that Daniels was jettisoned shortly after the split-up...
I hate to dish such gossip but it's just interesting to hear what was going on.

My jaw dropped when I saw this clip of La Villa:
I thought it was worth sharing.
Happy Halloween Rush'rs!

And smoking like a chimney, post-throat cancer surgery. I couldn't figure that one out.

I lost count at 17...
My favorite quote of Alex's is that they are "tools in a toolbox."
And, as my old guitar teacher would tell his wife when she asked to pare down his collection of 62+... "they are my pension!".
My collection has saved my tush more than once during lean times (with obvious regrets for the ones that were sacrificed).
