  6. found a feed, but show has not started yet, Just crowd now.
  7. I went to the Detroit show last night too. Excellent Rush show. I knew the setlist ahead of time and it that didn't diminish a things for me. I watch many of the shows on Periscope which I really enjoyed. In fact it made me want to see the show in person even more. And.... WOW. This tour seems to be leaving a lot of people very happy with the set list choices.
  8. I thought a lot about this on my way home from work yesterday. I know you said to not take it to serious and I'm not. I realize the point of the the thread was humor. But, John was very young when he made the first Rush album. He played like he was young. If he had kept at it he would have improved a lot. He was certainly not a virtuoso in 1974, but he was pretty darn good. I mean listen to the first album. His playing on Working Man and Finding My Way still stand up today. Here Again is played at a tempo that many drummers struggle with. It's hard to play a slow tempo, yet John pulled it off well. Neil is Neil. Amazing player and probably one of the top drummers in any musical genre today. Very few drummers today can play what Neil does. He deserves the accolades for what he does. But Neil has flaws just like John did. For my money sometimes Neil overplays a song. As they say... less is more. It's easy to be too busy when you have Neil's amazing ability. I think he has fallen into that trap at times. If there is one complaint I have about the most recent Rush albums is Neil is too busy on the drums. The songs, for me, need more room to breathe. While John could never have played much of the stuff that Neil did with Rush I think Neil has just as difficult a time forcing himself to play as sparsely as John did. Different styles, both great. So in the end, the point of this thread is off base, I think Neil has respect for what John played. Q: What do you a musician that can't keep time? A: A guitar player! I resemble that...
  9. donnie is still up and running. very few dropouts from his feed tonite
  10. Hello um <checks teleprompter>... Houston. Hello Houstonnnnnnnnnnn
  11. Can't watch that at all, but at least it's somewhat listenable. Yep, I'd rather listen to that one. No dropouts so I can follow the set at least.
  12. new scope on https://www.periscope.tv/w/Vzu--DI0MDI4MjR8MTI0NTM5MTIXwd4osbWMJD_tmDsOCTGXKOXK3g0ml5Pyc1bAnYsV8g==
  13. up periscope https://www.periscope.tv/w/Vzu6gTY0Njg3fDEyNDUxNDY4peBvfRZPvwoXkEaKGKGwWiVir0yHzSqDlRVUO9IgqCA=
  14. That was actually developed by Xerox at PARC. Apple stole it from them when Xerox decided to no do anything with the concept. But.... Apple did NOT invent the mouse and GUI concept. I like Mac's but I refuse to give them credit where it is not true.
  15. Just the opposite for me. I get Eddies feed in 15 second chunks followed by 30 seconds of dropouts. Stephs feed is rock solid. not a single dropout.
  16. I have watched all the shows on Periscope when they were happening. Yep, they have made flubs. Maybe we notice it more because we are watching every night as it happens. But seriously... these are songs they haven't played in years. I believe they are playing them because they have heard the fans ask for them for so long and they fit the concept of this tour. With this set list(s) they are playing I give them a wide margin for error. I am just happy they are playing the stuff they are playing. Personally I'd rather hear these songs with a mistake here and there than the same old songs from the last decade done note perfect every night. And, despite a few mistakes, they are REALLY bringing it.
  17. Now she's offering sex to get me away from this evil...what do I do? You will be back in a song or two anyway.
  18. This is really a tour that is a gift to all the old Rush fans. They know this material has been unplayed for a long time. It's the fans from the early years that have been left out. The band seems to finally be willing to play these songs again and make those fans happy too. So what's not to like? Breaking out "What You're Doing" made it for me. That's one I really wanted to hear live someday, but had written it off as impossible.
