    Neil waves and then SPLITS. He is in his tour bus probably even before Geddy and Alex exit the stage. It's that quick. Ahh don't fault the guy for trying to beat traffic. He kicks ass on stage for 3+ hours 1022.gif 1022.gif

    After the Toledo time machine show, we split right as the "I love you man" movie clip started...( had seen it, and was trying to beat traffic) . No other fans were leaving, and as we got out of the arena we saw peart's trailered bus drive off. So he's out of the arena before the house lights come on. Due to a really bad accident, traffic was brutal- and we ended up being next to his bus on the highway at 2 mph for a good 10 miles...

     

    My Top 25 Played iTunes Songs

    in Rush

    Haha, yeah so to make a long story short, if I were to post my top 25 here, it would be all Rush, Dream Theater, Triumph, and The Northern Pikes 653.gif

    Triumph is Canada's second greatest 3 peice band. And if you're second only to 2.gif ....now that's saying something. I just wish they would have kept it a 3 peice...

     

    Allied Forces is a top 10 desert island album for me...

    RUSH Shows, Neil's changing things

    nothing new here. he improved the solo last tour also. he might get rid of the big band crap this time around. it's going to be more of the same every single night. he doesn't have much vocabulary at all. he will play the same drum ostinato in three. boom chick chick boom chick chick. same tambourine trigger. the drum solo is the perfect time to get a beer and take a pee.

    Agreed, I wish they would play another song or two instead of having the drum solo. It wore out its welcome long ago.

    Anybody who's played in a band has had them. They suck. Experiencing them on stage as a band member can be deflating to say the least.

    This tour Drummer Neil Peart will be improvising A LOT more than ever...and that means the possibility goes way up for a "train wreck". Which song will see the most this tour?


    I hope he doesn't have any trink39.gif

    So since you have experienced many a train wreck....you expect the professor to do the same? Really?

    Have fun with that.... fing.gif

    "Anthem" on this Tour?

    Anthem is kinda overrated.  I would easily take Fly by Night, Best I Can, or By-Tor and the Snowdog over Anthem.  I don't care how bad Geddy's voice is; just please play another 70s song that's not Working Man, Overture/Temples of Syrinx, La Villa Strangiato, or The Trees.  Not saying I don't want to hear those 4 songs, but please add in some other 70s ones.

    anthem is one of rush's heaviest 1022.gif songs...WTF do you mean over rated?

    Test for Echo (The Song)

    QUOTE (The K Man @ Aug 13 2012, 10:37 AM)
    I wouldn't call Test for Echo an essential Rush song by any stretch of the imagination.

    As far as them bringing the song back, I wouldn't fret if it came back, but I'd be fine with them never playing it again. The fact that they haven't played it since the TFE tour probably speaks volumes about how little they must think of it. Has any other Track 1 on a Rush studio album been played so little? The answer is no. Most Rush Track 1s have had long live shelf lives, and Test for Echo is the only Track 1 to not only be played on only one tour ever, but to not even make it to the set list of the following tour (after its initial album run's tour).

    wow- never thought of it like that.

    T4E is a strong track though, IMO. it has great dynamics, great drum beats and message.

    i'd love to see it live again.

    They didn't play all of it during R30. They played the first two movements, then cut right into the finale.

    uhmmm. there was no finale for r30.

    you're thinking exit...stage left.

    Bale's.

    Because if Batman were real, that's the closest thing he would have.

    But he's not real. So yeah, West.

    i just saw him carry a bomb with his batplane out to see last night, so how can you say he's not real? it was in iMax even...
