Guess what I'm Doing this Thanksgiving? I'm gonna be doing "What You're Doing"

I always wondered who Ray Danniels' accountant was.

I too want to thank Scoper Bill for sharing (what could possibly be Rock History) with us last night! It was awesome!

I was just thinking that myself. That's the most kickass version of Working Man that they've ever done. I was rooting for Alex to keep extending the solo so the show wouldnt end. Keep going Lerxst! Keep going!

I'm picturing the opening scene in the movie "Falling Down", but replacing Michael Douglas's character with Neil. Haha

Alex is packing for Kansas City while whistling and saying "YES! Only 12 more!" Neil is packing for Kansas City while whistling and saying "YES! Only 12 more!" Geddy is packing for Kansas City while brooding and saying "OH NO! Only 12 more!"

Because it's quite possible he uses the Walmart restroom every morning but doesn't purchase a damned thing!

I agree. My buddy and I turned to each other and actually rolled our eyes when it started.

That clip is hysterical. Wish the sound was better. I was at that show and cracked up when he did that. That's why it was a bit surprising to read all of the "Alex is grumpy" posts in the shows that followed. But hey we're all human I guess.

I gotta agree with this. The youtube vid seems to confirm that late drum break attempt after the flub. Neil was lost.

Entre' Nous was performed on the Snakes and Arrows Tour - I definitely enjoyed getting to see that one live! :haz: Right...but a several years back, they were rehearsing it at soundcheck and never did it on that tour...I forget which one but there was a recording someone made, and it was a bonus track on a bootleg. Depending on the exact date of that soundcheck, it's quite possible that they weren't rehearsing it for performance, but rather working it out with the intention of recording it. Back then bands (especially ones who hadn't been around for even 10 years) would routinely write on road and work on the songs during soundchecks. That's the only way they could do at least one new album and tour per year. Isn't there similar early soundcheck footage of TSOR form sometime on the Hemispheres tour? Had to do a little searching but it's on "Check this Out" http://www.digitalrushexperience.com/database/review.php?RecordingID=1010 Hmmm....so that was during the short run post-Hemispheres tour but pre-PeW release. So much for my theory!! Here's video of an early soundcheck version of TSOR from my hometown of Hamilton on August 24, 1979 during the Permanent Waves warm up tour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtaWGojQb8I Is Geddy manning the Hamilton Stadium switchboard back there?! Wow. Haha

Lincoln was "Home of the Real Red Sea"

Looks like the spotlight above Geddy was out of control for a few seconds. Kinda scary.

Let's keep it this way. Haha

I think it is. Oh it is? I haven't compared it to the album version yet. He really seems to be straining on this one. But 2 hours in thats understandable.

I think its one of their most melodic albums. I would've taken Time and Motion or Totem over Roll The Bones. Sorry Bubbles and Paul Rudd.

Would it help Ged a little if Lakeside Park was tuned down a step? Curious as to how that might sound. Any thoughts from forum musicians?

IE doesn't work for a lot of things now days. Chrome is the best way to go for most things anymore. Well I climbed out from under my IE rock and got periscope to work with chrome. Its cool. Just curious, for anyone else viewing on laptop monitors, are the live feeds always so narrow? Ive found the zoom arrows but that makes the feed a pixilated mess. Is there any way to widen the feed window without zooming? No. Periscope only works in portrait mode. The last guy turned his phone so we got landscape mode but you had to rotate the display on your monitor to view it correctly. Oh ok. Thanks EagleMoon!

I was using Explorer. I guess that may have been the problem. That's all I can think of because I was following along the pinned St. Louis thread and clicking on the periscope links as you guys were posting them and got nothing. I would get the word LIVE across the screen but no content. I guess i'll try again for Austin with Chrome and see what happens. Thanks!

Just wondering how people are viewing periscope on laptops with windows 8? I cant seem to get it to work. Do you need to download anything? Do you need a twitter account. Do you have to use a specific browser? Ive tried and all I get is a blank gray page that says R40 St. Paul or wherever and no video or audio. I keep refreshing over and over and nothing. Doesnt matter whose feed I try. Thanks for any responses.

Man I'm late to this periscope thing. Can it be used on a laptop running windows 8? Do I need to sign up for twitter to use it?

I believe Roll The Bones Tour in June of 1992. They actually played two nights there during Presto 1990 which I thought was a bit surprising for such a big venue. I dont believe either date was sold out because of the huge lawn area.

Neil voted for this. Except it was a short medley and a 1 city tour...Los Angeles.

That's interesting. How tall would you presume he is? Neil is 6'4" (1.93 m) Alex is 6'0" (1.83 m) and Geddy is the "short" one at 5'10" (1.78 m) according to a Google search for their heights. You can judge for yourself. I'm 1.74 m. http://i1253.photobucket.com/albums/hh597/greyfriar2112/ALEX-GEDDY-ICHII.jpg Whether Its fake or not, at least Alex flashes the big smiles. Geddy has that "I hope the Jays win tonight " look.
