  1. Victor and My Favourite Headache...are they worth checking out? My Favorite Headache is really awesome, if you enjoy Geddy's vocals, especially. But Victor is just....bleeeeh.
  2. I noticed that in the DVD linear notes that it states that they filmed in Dallas, Phoenix **AND** San Antonio. The San Antonio show was the very next night after Dallas. I was at that show, and there was no mention at that time that they would be filming, but I remember security making very clear that NO ONE was allowed to bring a camera into the venue. My guess is they filmed in San Antonio to "clean up" any rough spots, and in this case, a rough spot had to be cleaned up when Ged used a different guitar. Just a thought. Clem But I'm surprised they just didn't use another shot, of something else. Seems like a major flub since it's an obvious thing. If you think using 5 seconds of a clip from a different show on the same song is a major flub, I don't think anything would satisfy you. That's an odd comment. What is that supposed to mean? It throws off the continuity, and visually it's very obvious. Not really that big of a deal, is what I'm saying.

  4. Got it in the mail today. Looks and sounds fine. Sometimes Geddy and Neil can be quiet. But that's, SERIOUSLY, it. Just be happy the guys are still playing and they have this. Enjoy it, love it, take it for what it is.
  5. I posted these before I saw that people were flipping out about the mix. I thought the mix was an improvement...not too bass heavy as it often is, and Neil is brought up a little bit more than on the TM tour. I like it. But then again, I'm a guitar guy. I'm a bass guy, who listens to everything. And that everything is there.
  6. I've been listening to the Pandora and Spotify version of the tour (DVD will be tomorrow). Honestly, I don't see why people are flipping a lid. It sounds fine. The bass and drums can be A LITTLE bit quiet at some points but other than that, I can hear/distinguish everything. I think people here get hyped up over Rush products so much that they expect perfection but don't receive it. It, honestly, sounds like a pretty raw mix, as well. Isn't that exactly what everyone has been wanting?
  7. Alright. Beginning of Caravan gave me flat-out goosebumps when the string section jumped in. Oh my gosh. The sound of this live album doesn't sound great, but man, it sounds a lot more raw than recent releases.
  8. In the end, OP, just get all the albums you don't have right now.
  9. I am not sure how much a quid is, but you may have gotten screwed.............. I guess it's worth having since it was for charity........ ;) That is really cheap.
  10. I'm going to break the trend here and say Snakes and Arrows, as well.
  11. Not sure how I missed this the first time, but man – this had me pretty choked up. I’ve experienced some pretty significant loss recently myself and really feel your pain. It’s visceral A beautiful tribute. My sincere condolences. Don't worry about it. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I haven't received so much condolence before. I appreciate this forum and love you all.
  12. I hope it's still there... I don't have the CD yet... It is! They fade it out pretty quickly, though, half way through the first "help me".
  13. Holy crap, who cares if Clockwork Angels is technically their 20th album or not?
  14. Though it's not a concept album, wouldn't Snakes and Arrows be considered that? I could see it this way.
  15. RIR has a ton more jarring cuts to it IIRC. Yes, indeed it does! In my opinion, RIR is the worst of the worst of Rush videos. Though it does have that cool special feature of the individual member cam. Now, that's something I hope they do for this release! 2112 is a great example of shots going spazzy all over for Rush in Rio. And YYZ.
  16. I don't want to imagine Headlong Flight camera shots. lol
  17. Wat. Omg. I LIVE IN GRAND RAPIDS. YEEEEE
  18. It's, already, been 2 months since you've been gone. We shared so many similarities and obsessions throughout the 15 years we were brothers. This was your favorite song from the group we both loved and talked about constantly. Hearing it live with such a raw power and incredible 8-piece string section only makes me miss you more and wish we could experience this together. I'm still missing your far out sense of humor and incredibly strong and deep conversations we would have. You were a smart kid. You and your friends loved you so much. I miss you, little buddy. You were taken away from us far too soon. RIP Luke
  19. Thanks for that Captain Obvious. Hey man, I'm not the one who said it was a commercial.
