I bet you're not the only one to have figured that out, but good job nonetheless!

She did indeed. She showed all the other singers on stage that night how it's done.

Probably not a very good idea to give out your physical address here. I do like the red trim around the garage door, however.

It doesn't strike me as a compliment or a slight. He was just throwing Rush out there as an example of a band that does more complex arrangements and compositions than VH.

If you're talking about the one with the red guitar...that's Gary Clarke Jr. The one with the blue guitar is Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machines. He is a PHENOMINAL guitarist. Morello, thanks. Yeah, his stuf there was miles beyond the other guys, technically speaking.

Who is the skinny guy with the baseball cap? He's an amazing guitarist.

Yup, it's been played live. Alex did the ascending keyboard line with his feet during the chorus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GbS5TfL0w8 :rush: That's the ticket!

Was the T-Rex the good guy at the end of Jurassic Park when he attacked the raptors thus allowing the people to escape? Could it be possible that By-Tor remained evil and defeated the necromancer only because he caught a lucky break, and didn't give a shit about the 3 travellers?

No argument from me. It's one his most amazingly creative solos.

This is easy- "In the End" I have only been playing for about 1.5 years, and am not much beyond changing a few chords. Most of "In the End" can be played by repeating the same 4 chords (D-G-F-C) ... for 6 minutes :)..... Plus, a Bm and two power chords (don't know what they are called) to finish it off. My own personal musical ambition is to be able to play the solo of "In the End" one day I always though this was a great guitar song. I just love that halfway point where they rip into the blarring guitar riff! Best has to be on that one Bootleg from cleveland called Lost Order Of Angels or something, when Geddy does the countdown. 1, 2, 3, 4444444444444444444444444444444444!!! I don't play guitar but my favorite "Air Guitar" would have to be Kid Gloves. That riff just seems so cool, reminds of that "Cliffs of Dover" song by that one guy I can't remember. Eric Johnson

Probably The Trees for me.

Ah, now I get it!

Who is playing the tambourine?

Where's the evidence of this?? I just noticed that someone has already posted the pic. I recall Big Al talking about quitting on the Rush in Rio DVD, but don't know if he ever did or not. Maybe he's been smoking all along? I'm not sure why, but I was under the impression that Neil was the only one who still smoked. The photos with this interview, including the placement of the "ashtray" suggested to me that Chad was the smoker and he offered Alex a cigarette. I'm not a smoker, so I'm not hip to the rules of ashtray placement, but do ashtrays normally get placed closer to the smoker's "off hand" than the one holding the cigarette? Both Alex and Chad seem to be right handed, yet the ashtray is closer to Alex's right hand than Chad's.

It was a very good conversation, but I wouldn't call it an interview, because as an interview, it sucked.

I think I know which part you're talking about...not sure what you mean by false harmonic, though.

Where's the evidence of this?? This perhaps? http://cdn.mos.musicradar.com//images/features/chad-smith-in-conversation/chad-alex-laughing-two-460-85.jpg

I generally prefer the studio versions, but there are a couple of exceptions: What You're Doing (ATWAS) and Dreamline (RiR).

Chicken or egg here? Was this the reason for 2112, or were those lines made to fit into the pattern?? Or a third possibility: coincidence?

And this week's, "Totally Missing the Point of the OP" award goes to... ;)

I ranked them the same as you did... 1,3,2 I don't read comic books, so I didn't know any different as far as how the characters should be have, I just enjoyed the roles they had in the movie. +1

Neil's hi-hat work during the solo was really tastey.

What?? What kind of 'shape' do you mean? Increasingly pearish.
